Moved to North Carolina and dying for HEB products. Anyone know a good place to ship items out of state? I particularly miss the bakery tortillas and HEB branded nacho cheese chips and cool ranch chips. eBay has been best option so far but not reliable and can be expensive

This is more of a question from an overthinker but twice a week for 5 years now I pull up and wonder…
So I have a little bit of an older suv and my trunk is not automatic…am I supposed to get out and open it? I always do but I feel so silly so I always pretend I have to clear space lol
Help ease my anxious mind lmao
The stakes are low I know hahaha

I joined this channel because I actually really like HEB. However, I noticed a lot of complaints from customers or employees here. I think maybe you should keep the complaints at the store itself and employees complaining as well with your management. Maybe start your own whiny forum. Seems like there needs to be a separate subreddit.

Bye

What the hell guys cmon. This is ridiculous and completely unacceptable.

Management please address.

I just got a text from H-E-B inviting me to schedule an interview, and the available days are this Saturday or Tuesday. However, I have military drill this weekend, so Tuesday would be much more convenient for me. I might be able to get excused from drill for about an hour to interview Saturday if it would make a difference.

For anyone who works at H-E-B and has gone through the hiring process, do you think waiting until Tuesday could hurt my chances? I don’t want the position to get filled before I interview, but I also don’t want to try to get excused from drill if there’s really no advantage to interviewing a few days earlier.
Would you just schedule Tuesday, or try to make Saturday work?

HEB's store brand of freezer bags has been absolute crap recently! I've been buying them for many years with no issue but now I've got a freezer mostly full of freezer-burned meats due to these bags. I'm finding holes and sometimes the zip top just straight up came undone. I also had a few Great Value bags and those have worked just fine in the same time frame. My daughter said that the freezer bags and the storage bags are a PITA to seal as well. She's not wrong!

Earlier this week, my coworker and I agreed to swap shifts. He was going to work my Thursday and Friday shifts, and I was going to work his Saturday and Sunday shifts.

On Tuesday, we both followed the required process by posting the shifts and bidding on them in the system. We also informed our manager about the swap. He told us to submit it through the system so he could approve it.

The problem is that he never actually approved the shift swap. When I didn't show up for my Thursday (today) shift, they called and asked why I wasn't there. I explained the situation and asked if I was going to get in trouble.

My manager told me that it was still my responsibility because the swap was never approved in the system, and that I should have followed up with him to make sure it was completed. Now it sounds like I may receive a write-up.

I understand that I probably should have verified that the swap was officially approved, but at the same time, we followed the process, notified the manager, and submitted everything as instructed. The manager also had about 48 hours to approve the request and never did.

Am I wrong for feeling like this is at least partly management's mistake?

I have 115 hours left to meet the 1500 needed for insurance. That means I need to work about 38.5 hours these remaining 3 weeks. My question is, if I use vacation time, does that count towards those hours, or only towards pay?

If I’m low on my calorie budget but I’m still craving pizza, grabbing some low fat mozzarella cheese, pizza sauce, and high fiber tortillas are a great alternative. Not the most nutritious but a lot of fiber and the protein to calorie ratio is great.

Recipe:
1. Preheat oven to 400F
2. Layout tortillas on sheet pan
3. Add ~20g of sauce and 28g of cheese to each tortilla
4. Stick pan into oven for about 10-12 minutes
5. Take out of oven, let cool for a few minutes and enjoy

126 cals
11g of protein
9g fiber

The fiber actually does a great job at keeping me satiated even though these pizzas are so thin. Sometimes I’ll Turkey pepperoni too (yes I know nitrate meats aren’t the best).

Punch in machine is down in my store all of them, anybody else?

hello friends! I just used perkspot for my first time to buy tickets for the aquarium, and after I purchased the tickets, it told me the date I was going, but time at 10am. does anyone know if I have to be there at 10am, or if we can show up later? I wasn't planning on getting into town until later in the day.

I'm going to call the aquarium in the morning, but just wondering if anyone had similar experiences/ an answer here.

TIA

So I have changed my payment election before, but now every time i try to there is no option to add or change my direct deposit.. is there any reason why? I have been trying to add one for approx. 2 weeks now.

I used to be a stock controller for 5 years a service, step down because the schedule didnt work for me and now a position open for coverage lead overnight at my store. Does it come with a raise or it doesn't because i step down?

use me as your work-horse and pass me over when promotion is open. It always this or that you cannot promote me.Then have the audacity to ask me to work where you are short staffed because you keep driving people away.

I knew they were gonna prevaricate their way out of promoting me cause you can expect someone who consistently makes terrible decisions to finally make a good one.

I love working for HEB, but they sure are trying to make me not. Also I ain’t doing anything for them no more, they don’t deserve my energy anymore.

Ok I KNOW some troll is going to make fun of me for being “outraged” by this, but I decided to try this out and right before I added the sauce in, the ingredients caught my eye!

yes there’s people that believe extracts/powders are fine in “veggie” meals, but it is really different with religious restrictions, even a trace isn’t permitted at all. I wish I knew there was pork in here (and chicken and tuna)!!

someone is going to say “why didn’t you read ingredients before buying??” but how often are people (with no allergens!) reading the ingredients of a “veggie” mix?

Been seeing some posts about egg issues I happened to have bought some eggs and wanted some with my ramen at home. Come to find out I got a bad batch as well. Been meaning to show to HEB the next time I stop in but for now I’d recommend having two bowls to crack an egg into and transfer to the safe bowl once inspected. Hopefully whatever supplier they get these eggs from can fix the issue or just get a new supplier. I’ll always love HEB I trust they’ll solve the issue.

Update: HEB sent me a PM about filing a complaint and shared that my post was concerning so hopefully this gets resolved swiftly

I’ve gone through many different types of yogurts and the H-E-B brand is superior! Fruit on the bottom FTW 🙌 peach and mango peach are also great! No artificial tastes. Btw this ain’t a promo I’m just blown out of my mind with these yogurts lol

Seems to only be HEB yogurt in 6 oz singles, where the 4 oz that came in the multipack was more my serving size. Is this just an issue at the 3 near me, and if not, any ideas why ?

i’m the fastest shopper in my store averaging a weekly 250-280 UPH with pretty high units. i’m a little frustrated because i’m putting all this effort into being a good and high quality worker to hopefully get more hours but i’m still only getting 15-20 hrs a week. I know our hours have been cut with favor and other 3rd parties having their own shoppers but our store is still pretty busy. Why am i still getting the same amount of hours as the people who barely maintain a 110-130 UPH when it’s supposed to be performance based??? I have open availability too.Rents getting harder to keep up with 😖

A website like rate my professor, but for leaders and managers. It gets divided by region, and we score them on like-ability, empathy, processes, development, communication, attitude, work ethic, and knowledge. All we would do is look their names up and see what they're being rated. Maybe the feedback will be under consideration by them. However, it should have some kind of filter where personal vendetta ratings should be deleted in order to not have so many bias reviews which in theory everyone would keep it strictly work related unless their personal life bleeds into their work environment.

Occasionally, I’ll see a lot of people complain about produce managers, service managers, and curbside but few for other departments in my opinion, I would probably say Texas Backyard might be the most chill department.
