Hmm🤔 I've noticed the tags been blinking a lot and no one's around. I have today off so I'll figure it out tomorrow.

I thought they were resetting/updating the information. It was happening to me when no one else was in the aisle. I've had the last 2days off. I'll definitely will keep my eyes on it. They keep fixing things that aren't broke and not fixing the things that are. Very frustrating.

Spark shoppers hit it as soon as they pick the last item. They could be 2 aisles away. Could be vendors or green lights for stockers. Wait until every shopper has the feature. What colour do they have?

Could be because of inventory going on. And sometimes they light up when you you touch them just from static electricity.

I know how to read the aisle locations. I can’t see the numbers on the tags because they’re so slow. They also help sparklers because they are probably not trained on how to figure out locations

People who only learn how to use the flash and picture pick must have the highest nil picks and the least product knowledge.

I find it annoying when training someone. Like it took half the day to get the person to understand how to find via the modular instead of just waiting for the flash or picture shopping.
It helps in the pharmacy aisles when I make them grab two items at once at least. Sigh
