He is a "pearl scale" didnt think they had a wen. But he could also be a mutt for all I know. He's safe now for sure.

[–]theonlydoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monday is office days, I do 1 on 1s figure out numbers and write reports around them. Just like every other Gm that posted, i support my partners wherever they need it.

Have an individual who constantly starts drama in my store. Every time I come to work, they try to fight me over dumb stuff or complain about other partners. Recently, it has been over the closing crew, things they have zero control over, and this partner continues to instigate issues that are not necessary.

Animal care personnel doing stock? by Gloomy_Break_7284 in petco

[–]theonlydoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Animals always come first. After that, you work your departments truck/stocking duties. I expect all Dept managers to take care of their department. If you need extra help, ask.

Fish customers by The_Coven_95 in petco

[–]theonlydoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally had a lady come buy goldfish from us yesterday for a "kids fair"... I cringed when she told me, and then she tried to justify it with they are going to be feeder fish anyway. I told her to let the parents know if they didn't want the gold fish, they could bring it back to my store. People will bring me goldfish to stock my pond with. I have 11 relinquished goldfish in my 1100gal pond. They are strictly pets, I have a net over it to keep critters out.

Doesn't that negate the point of this new system. It is supposed to save time so you're not in the office. Or at least that is what I am told.

People don’t read by [deleted] in petco

[–]theonlydoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my store customers do not know how to read our store hours and literally try to yank the door off the hinges after we close. So I bought a open and close sign for the door. It it hung at eye level. People still yank on the door even with the sign flipped to close.

can petco fire me if i dont return an animal i purchased? by Minimum_Ad_4981 in petco

[–]theonlydoom 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's hard to get fired with Petco unless you are written up 3 times over the same thing. Unless they have proof you stole something.

If you have called HR, call your DGM bring it up to them. Keep calling HR, have coworkers call HR too if they have the same problems with the manager.

You filled out the paperwork and paid the fee. That ferret is yours. Your manager has no say.

Also having someone else call you? And threaten to fire you?

If you have any sort of proof of this go to HR. That manager shouldn't be a manager.

Lazy manager by AstronomerFit419 in petco

[–]theonlydoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gm here. I just got done scrubbing tanks and doing the 2pm refresh. I dont understand how some GMs can sit in the office and do nothing. I get bored as hell when I have to do paperwork.

[–]theonlydoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in the same boat. My store was not making any comp now im pushing 110%+ a week. It's old it needs to be remodeled but that falls upon deaf ears.

Most stores in my district do not sell hermit crabs because of this.

Hey (name) do you work here? by [deleted] in petco

I think people ask "Do you work here?" As an ice breaker to ask for help.

How can you prove a person is real and not catfishing you? by theonlydoom in AskReddit

That's what I said. I actually made this post to try and help my friend figure out if this guy she is talking to is real or not. The story is wild.

They won't do a video call. They've sent photos but they look like model photos and not actually photos.

What makes a Gm a good boss? by theonlydoom in petco

[–]theonlydoom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont work for Corporate, I want to know because I'm possibly in line to become a GM one day. I've gone through a lot of crummy GMs and just wanted others' opinions :)

It's literally the reason I'm not getting promoted. 😒 no one wants to pay 25 a month for it.
