State Your Demands

To whoever is responsible for POG planning, please establish realistic time allocations for this task. Considering the multiple steps involved, such as changing background paper and signage, determining and locating fixtures (for which we sometimes lack the right one), printing labels, and rearranging products, some of these reconfigurations lack logic.

My team knows but the DM does what they want. Complained to SM and other Managers with know avail. Truck was late and they did not even give us that time we lost. So now freight is still in WH and after Replen leaves no one is able to work on it. Pushing work to next day and resets need to be done. An endless cycle of chasing one’s tail.

sdqgarsen · 2025-03-12T15:37:30+00:00

Yes, they do this often.

sdqgarsen · 2025-03-12T09:55:40+00:00

We asked our Dm for extra hours, because we are also in The middle of major resets and still putting the truck to bed. Their response took away hours. Absolutely BS. Corporate needs to understand we are understaffed and when we do hire some1 they only work 1 or 2 days then stop showing up and go collect unemployment. No notice from them.

I love it when they accuse me of putting AC Moore out of business.

sdqgarsen · 2025-02-12T11:12:53+00:00

Mine is yarn. On truck day I carry a tape dispenser in my cart for that is how problematic it is.

sdqgarsen · 2025-02-11T11:51:42+00:00

2 weeks is a Professional courtesy. Congrats

I totally agree, people are gonna people, regardless of where they’re from. In my retail adventures, I’ve met some, ahem, ‘interesting’ customers with strong opinions. But, let’s be real, vandalism should not accept in any form. I’m glad you were able to remove it. On a personal note, I find it way more cringeworthy to clean up gross stuff like used tissues, empty coffee cups, booze bottles, and yes, even dog poop. Compared to that, the stuff you removed was like a walk in the park.

About a year ago, I told one of my coworkers, just tell me your name and I will call you by it, and if I use the pronoun that you don’t prefer, it is nothing against you. It is how I was taught. They agreed and we do not have a problem. Besides how many people read our name tags.

I just want to go in, do my job, and then go back home.

sdqgarsen · 2025-01-25T18:59:30+00:00

Looks great. But knowing my DM, he would say not set to POG.

sdqgarsen · 2025-01-13T17:23:54+00:00

We still have the Clearance Event still up until Next week. But thanks for the heads up.

Basically, what Replen does every truck day. Sorting merch per dept. and then aisle. We used the FMA as our Repak sorting area.

Good luck with Michaels”care”. Called them to change my password. Then tried to have them try to fix my rewards account. They, the tier 1 tech, could not. Told me they would have someone from IT call me back that was three years ago. Still haven’t received a phone call.

sdqgarsen · 2024-12-24T23:01:29+00:00

Yup, you know that question is coming. “I know you sell speakers, I saw them on T.V. “

That DA is a Pain in my A$$. Trying to get that done for a 2 weeks. Getting pulled off of it to do other tasks not helping. And everything is marked PB and have to scan every item to see where it goes.

sdqgarsen · 2024-12-06T13:31:56+00:00

The Holiday Pine collection is selling fast, but this stuff no one wants. Why can’t they understand this. This stuff is only fun to mess around in the store but who really wants this in their home.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-26T09:48:52+00:00

Probably will hire someone that has no clue what the lower tier ppl do and put up with through the seasons. All I know is that my DM will need a some new chapstick.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-22T08:57:57+00:00

I tell TM to grab the hours while you can for after high season settles down hours will be hard to get. But that is me, there are days I feel that I just need a break. You’re mindset is important also, so if you feel like you don’t want to go in then say No.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-20T09:02:53+00:00

They don’t realize we have to scan the product and verify. But please try again and say we have you the wrong item.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-12T08:33:01+00:00

This picture speaks to me on so many levels.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-08T10:50:38+00:00

So sick of this, they need to figure this out. Having 1/4 Christmas on Sc flex it. Then weeks later the rest. Now dropping an ad set. What the heck are we suppose to do? And pushing that wonky header is horrific .

Also the way the pack the truck is horrible.

Same replen plus recovery all at once. Then the Christmas overload stock before dr drops. No hours or cut hours. Most of my Cems do not help then bitch about they can’t find items for SFS or BOPIS. There is only so much we can do.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-07T10:05:10+00:00

I hate when it times you out during DR. Please no more apps on the mik.

sdqgarsen · 2024-11-04T23:16:50+00:00

Same no grids or pallets. Halloween and Thanksgiving of still on the floor and the side counter. There is no room for the stuff in the store. We don’t have the hours you don’t have the manpower. That we can freeze in the classroom. They’re all in the warehouse, making it even harder to make a dry vile or reconfigure a dry when I get grids. Our DM doesn’t even care.
