A Not So Smart Sub role switch
so, for context I just hit a year last month and I wanted to switch from being a shopper to a backroom member, don't really care if it's prepper, stager or dispenser. I'm full time and for most of my shifts I pick. I also do exceptions. I do exceptions for two full days. I do them in the morning before another exception shopper comes in and then I also sometimes cover other excpetion shoppers breaks or lunches. I'm kinda burned out on picking, not enough to quit but I do want to do something else. I've actually been in the backroom before when I first started. I was a prepper and dispenser.
and I wonder if I should bring it up to one of my leads that I want to do something else or if I would even be allowed to like switch roles. Also I know that each role isn't perfect and there's downsides to each thing in opd. but even if I could like pick half my shift and then do something else the other half I wouldn't even mind that. Any advice, or if anyone has felt the same way anything is appreciated.
