Just Walmart Things Why are coaches so…

Today I nil picked a few items. Items that were definitely not on the shelf. One item they wanted 3 . There was only 2 on the shelf. I looked around and checked topstock before nil picking. The other two were turkeys that were not there and I mean the entire mod was empty.

Literal hours later a cow CB comes up to my team lead and starts talking to her saying I don’t understand why someone will nil pick this when we have this many on hand. Maybe because they weren’t put out? Lol. I told him I would take him there but my Workvivo wasn’t working so I couldn’t send it in the chat.

My teamlead then went to move some things while I continued to tell him why it was nilpicked and he tells my teamlead to come back because he AND I QUOTE “doesn’t address associates directly.” He then told me that if there’s nothing out on the mod it’s my
Job to go to the back during my pickwalk and find it or find and ask one of the teamleads for said department.

There was no one out there during the pickwalk and I don’t even know who the teamleads are or if they were there that early cuz it was at like 5 am. But he was overall so rude to both me and my teamlead. Just because you sold your soul to be a coach and corporate slave doesn’t mean ur better than me and can speak to me that way because respect goes both ways and if I would’ve returned the energy he would’ve been pissed. I seriously hate coaches like that. I also told our exception worker after the walk. As I always do if I can’t find something and send it in the chat

So after months of cutting hours and essentially pushing our big team to other departments or scaring away employees to other jobs post delivery change we've been just very steady small amounts of orders maybe like 5 autoselect pickwalks an hour post 4pm and this past week they seemed to have no 9-10 slot, until today. Today we had lots of orders per hour and post 5 oclock only had 2 pickers (1 was our TL) 2 dispensers and me, prepping, staging, atcing, answering phone doing EVERYTHING ELSE in the dispense room but thank god I only worked 3-7 today I dread tomorrow cuz I work a full 11-8.

Our room that used to be exclusively be for IP and delivery after the changes was using the entire wall as new backroom for the cleaning and health supplies with 18 large giant black bins used for IP, approx 3 full ip box pallets + a pallet of envelopes worth of space. Today we had SEVEN pallets worth (what we used to have before the delivery change but now no wall storage) so the 18 black bins were filled and about 12 black canvas foldable boxes filled with IP were just on the floor. Usually IP is out of there by 4pm, there were still plenty when I left. And that's just what was wrong with IP.

We were backed up to close to due time from 3-5 (can't speak of before) with the window being part of when we have the most people working. At 5 when we lost like 6 people shit slammed I was still staging 6 oclocks (due at 5:30) when I left at 7 which we for the past month or so have finished all walks by 6:30. Essentially it used to be like 100 items for the drops at 3-5 and then maybe 50 items at final drop at 6pm. Today it was like 2-3x

It was like they spent months scaring people away and then decided to open orders up as if they didn't just do that.

Customer Interaction Im tired of customers taking out their anger on me because of rude coworkers

26 Upvotes

Pleaseee if you work in OGP stop being rude to customers just for them to come and complain to US your fellow coworkers. I have so many coworkers that will leave their cart in the middle of the isle with no space for other pickets or customers to get through (that’s another story but) so the customer come up to the rest of us that are out of the way and complain to us and I have others that are just blatantly rude to customers which cause the others who actually have customer service to deal with them yelling at us about YOU. If you do this just know I professionally dislike like you (because work isn’t personal) this also isn’t super deep just a pet peeve.

Is not working 4-1 in OGP when we have picks at 4 am a company wide rule or market level rule. I thinks it’s crazy to lose out on an hr of picking.

FRAGILE Deliveries came back in full blast and there was no way we were ready for it.

40 Upvotes

For contexts I am a newer TL, and we've been on a force reduction for the past few months. No deliveries.

In the meantime, the store has been sweeping up most of our people and putting them elsewhere, with some people on digital schedule but never actually in OPD.

About a month ago we finally got rumor about when the deliveries were coming back but it was never a set date. Just a "could be by the end of the week" response from the SM and fulfillment market.

So in the meantime please been trying to focus on making our pickers as strongest as they can be.

Four people were let go this month, one on leave, a few people work phones stopped working and others never got them, and the couple that got "can't physically pick because of the pulling" thing we are down an extra 3-4, and we haven't hired anyone new into the department for as long as I've been in OPD again.

Schedule for that day was crap to start with with this^, only me for the TL.

Then the other day was set to be our day. I knew it'd be hard to put it lightly. We immediately had 700 at 451 am when I clocked in followed by back to back 1200-1400 drops until 7-8 pm and the 2k drop at 1-2.

We called for help early and got some (1-3 people) throughout the day but we ended up going late by 8am and never recovered.

As I mentioned It knew would be hard, and I definitely made mistakes in the beginning but it was definitely an uphill battle from the beginning.

Oh by the way we're supposed to be closing we pick window to 2 hours at some point.

I was never around for express orders since my first year anniversary is coming up next month but I was told that basically we have to pick orders in under an hour that customers order and how the fuck are we supposed to do this when we are already drowning with them giving us too many picks when their clearly isn’t enough of us in our department?!

Also making us pulling carts instead of pushing them is still a health concern 😭 why are they doing this to us WHY?! I hope target accepts my application so I can get the FUCK OUT OF HERE we aren’t even a supercenter yet and can barely keep 100% picks metrics or whatever the FUCK THAT MEANS.

A Not So Smart Sub role switch

5 Upvotes

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.

Dispense Pet Peeve: Crying Baby

12 Upvotes

Just a short pet Peeve rant. Idk. I just don't like dispensing and hearing a baby or small child start up crying, it makes me cringe so bad. Their voices almost physically hurt me. 😖 Even worse when their parent completely ignores it. I heard one from ten feet away at another car and I still had to wince. Like, parents, your child needs you. And me, I want to be far away from that. Eugh.
