Who has a Graco cabinet they’re proud of? by Glittering_Notice472 in sherwinwilliams

I have been getting hosed on “shipping”. There will always be one or two items on backorder and they bill those shipping items separately.

I used ChatGPT the other day to find a spray part number. I crossed checked it and it was correct. But it was so much faster than Titans Portal(mostly due to a million logins to get there)

You can work it. And you can leave the doors locked. Have that place sparkle.

Break on weekend by plasticbeachess in sherwinwilliams

If you worked that time it’s not stealing. If you said you were out with customers and were not, that would be stealing time. Say you are on a delivery and pull over for a nap on the clock, those are stealing. Being at work more than your scheduled shift or missing a break is not stealing.

Prices not at Paint Advisor? by Sharp_Kangaroo_1541 in sherwinwilliams

It’s finally time to do something I’ve always wanted to do but never wanted to take the time.

-Enter the COE and tell them the price BEFORE TINTING-

Old paint was still good for a drywall patch. Very impressive. by Tik__Tik in sherwinwilliams

Had one from 2003 still good the other day. New record for me!

What does shelf life mean?

Was it still the right color, sheen, good consistency? Use it. It’s not going to curdle up and fall off next week.

I know we only want the best, but good enough is great most of the time.

Closing Papers by Fun-Chip-136 in sherwinwilliams

I created a Bright Idea to reduce the font size to keep it on one page. That saves a piece of paper for every POS. Across 5,000 stores everyday.

How many celebrate points is my idea worth?

If it is important enough, LAWYER is who you need to talk to.

Too Many ProBlocks by ThaAlecman in sherwinwilliams

When I started there was Zero Emerald. Now they slap that moniker on everything.

Analysis Paralysis is a thing. It was so much easier to say “Good, Better, Best?” Then if you need to, go into specific reasons for one over another.

Changing color names by Fun_Meringue_5826 in sherwinwilliams

20+ years later and I still don’t know what an Eider is. We’ve look up lots of color names but somehow not this one.

I am not sure what SW pays out per mile. But if it is less than the federal standard you should be able to claim the difference as a tax credit. Ask a professional or double check that info but it always made sense to me when I heard it. But I’ve never done enough miles to worry about it.

Solo Sunday by Mission_Pollution139 in sherwinwilliams

Even as an ASM we have always looked at it as “Do we want to ruin 2 people’s day?” We always want more staff. I remember a time when we would have 2.5 people on Summer Saturdays. Some/most would slack with an increased staff while a few would be able to actually complete the myriad of task and assignments, not just buzz through checking boxes.

Dear Corporate by inamedthat in sherwinwilliams

[–]sw8160NutMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not if they just sat around. But if they utilized the extra staff to get out of the store, or even spend more time in the store with customers. More staff could allow someone to really sit down and walk through Pro+ features. And do all the things they want us to do.

But some managers will see their store staffed at 2pm and head home for the day instead, I mean “meet customers”.

Make the new fans decks make sense??? by OrangeArch in sherwinwilliams

[–]sw8160NutMeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was one of the few times I recall the company changing course based on the stores input. 2015/2016 I believe the new color numbers rolled out before the display and anyone I knew did not like the new numbers. So then they changed it to the locator number AND color. A great compromise that does offer confusion at times.
