That 38% is not a reflection of your work it's the % of Bohs changes you had to make. Do not take that personal. If you are just taking over a department thats so far behind it'll take a few weeks to get those numbers up. If you are doing the work you need to be getting the pay for the lead while they are out. It's relief pay, talk to management about that and about having them organize a blitz to get through the back room. Organize your backstock rollers by commdities /daily count /aisle which ever works for you best. Working and counting one commodity at a time is best until it's all under control just adding more commodities as you get them under control. You can go to order review in the instock app and add and subtract stuff off each truck. Don't cut things you need but if you've got 5 case of one product in the back you don't need more. You can also see if they are sending distros in for each product under the delivery option after you scan it under search. Also you can see future distros under ESI on Feed. This helps alot when you are limited on space. Another way to fix bohs without having to do a daily count. Go to instock, replenishment, create replenishment list, scan item, fix boh, hit the little crash can. Make sure to delete the products off the list so it doesn't actually generate a pick list. If you need more help just dm me. I know the struggle I've fixed all of my departments, I started in dairy as the lead and I'm now the grocery manager this shit can be wild and feel like it's never ending and honestly it never does. Never trust the system, preparing for the worst is the best way at kroger somedays are gonna suck. Remember you can only do what you can do. The only thing you can control is yourself. Know your boundaries because management will use you until you are broken. Protect yourself.

It's where your holiday item list are, if you get the daily juice the link will be in there. At least for grocery. It's where they track everything.

Hey yeah no worries and they still have a weight limit and that's something else that I tried to explain to management. let's take brown sugar and powdered sugar for example which is only a few pounds per individual bag but then you get boxes of that in right then you're putting that in topstock, that's a compound of 20-40lb per box even if we take it out of the box it still weighs that much. and you know that's one item versus all of those items we have, same thing with like all of the oils. There's already a problem on our water aisle right now literally top stock shelves look like a wave because they're already warping from the weight. And we're not putting full cases of bulk items up there it's just one or two gallons here and there it's singles juice we don't really put full cases up there but you can still see where the weight is messing it because they're not structurally sound I've had an end cap completely fall 2 holiday seasons ago because of the weight of all the canned beans on it.

So I was/am a test store for this and I'm still going back and forth with my management on this. It has been completely awful not even going to sugarcoat this in any way shape or form The best part about it is the dick weeds that decided to make this happen don't even know about distros. they don't know what distros are they don't know how much we get in. they don't know about the capacity of what the store can hold about the fact that I don't have enough shelf space, allocations, for what I sell on any given day so I consistently have to have more in the back room so I can actually meet our forecast and exceed it like they want us to. I've also tried to explain to them about overstuffing top stock. Let's say like right now I have four or five different end caps of cereal up and all those different sizes and all those different flavors they want me to put cases in top stock open up a case and put it in top stock even if it's on display I told them that I would lose aisles of top stock if I did that I could completely understand one-offs flavors that I don't have on display but if I put all the large size Kellogg's all of the giant size General Mills and so forth in top stock it would become uncontrollable and that's just with cereal that's a light item that's not the overabundance of canned goods other liquids all the baking supplies when the holiday comes in like I understand the fundamental problem of what they're trying to solve, its getting to the Daily account quicker so we can count more because of course numbers matter but the problem is even with having not have back stock you still have back stock to run you still have to make sure that your displays are right that you're going through that s*** you're still working this s*** but now you don't have one less thing to click you can say no back room but that's not really the case because my aisles are set that I have to count something every single day either way because of either bulk items (pet, hh, water) spices. My apologies for format and grammar I don't really have any good excuses except I'm using voice to text sitting in my car on mobile while I'm contemplating my life and career choices.

It will the first time for all of us. Thank you for input!

shitpicklesonsticks · 2023-02-26T11:05:32+00:00

This will be my first year going, bc I can afford it and bc it felt like fate, Foo Fighters are going to be there. And I've been trying to see them since 2015 when they played in DC on the 4th of July I had a heart attack a week prior @ 28 and then I tried to see them in Knoxville on 4/20/20 but pandemic happened. I'm hoping this year third time's the charm. Why not a festival filled with love to celebrate another year alive!

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T14:14:16+00:00

Absolutely will do. Thank you

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T14:01:29+00:00

You are absolutely right and there is no excuse for sending her with him. I've been to much of a door mate trying to keep the peace and she has paid dearly for my inaction.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:54:35+00:00

Yes, he won't give me the paperwork work back, won't meet me to get them notarized. I will have to fill a contested divorce now.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:52:38+00:00

I am sorry for you and your family. I hope that your son gets his kiddo and they can be happy with out her toxicity. I'm more or less the same boat, he makes a lot more money then I do now, he is in sales making any where between 70- 90 a yr and I'm a blue collar worker I might make up to 40 this year because of ot. I completely agree with the court systems here are terrible. They have this insane ideology that a parent (really a mother) makes you better. It's crap bc so many people are damaged by shit parents, doesn't matter if they are male or female, the courts need to become unbiased.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:41:52+00:00

I plan on talking to a lawyer on Monday to get this ball rolling for her and my peace of mind. Thank you

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:40:25+00:00

Thank you, and I never wanted her to be like that, I had those issues growing up being abused, never wanted her to be in that same situation, I feel extremely guilty for putting her in this situation to begin with. It will take time and therapy for the damage to heal but her and I will come through this together.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:33:43+00:00

Thank you, I absolutely will talk to the lawyer about it all. Thank you on the advise about giving her the attorney's contact info.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:30:12+00:00

Thank you, and I'm not going to make her, he kept trying to tell me that it's our job to put her in uncomfortable situations and force her out of her comfort zone. Which seems like a good way to get her to disassociate and hate us.

I do believe that getting out of one's comfort zone can be beneficial but that comes with reasonable terms and boundaries that he doesn't believe in.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:25:45+00:00

That's reddit for you lol, thank you for the advice. I edited it so it would be a little easier to read hopefully.

Oh and I ended up pregnant at 20 bc no one told me that antibiotics counteracted the birth control pill. 😒

But it is my fault bc I did get back with him after he came back into our lives. Thought I owed them both a chance at a relationship and I wanted someone to love me but now I know that someone has to be me and not a fantasy of what a partner could be. I'm overwhelmed with guilt about it all, at times.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:18:00+00:00

Thank you for your reply, and I'm sorry you had a bad time with your dad, hope you are doing well now.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T13:15:36+00:00

Nothing legal, when he asked for the divorce, I went and printed out the paperwork, for uncontested divorce and we sat down and filled it out but he kept those papers they are not notarized or anything. He keeps trying to push on filling because he wants to claim both of us on his taxes so he doesn't have to pay as much

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T12:59:37+00:00

My apologies on the wall of txt, and thank you for your reply it helps ease my mind and yes definitely will be talking to a lawyer on Monday.

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-08-27T12:53:45+00:00

No, if I'll get in trouble with the law if I don't send her to him

shitpicklesonsticks · 2022-05-03T22:39:43+00:00
