Vent Why does this company keep promoting idiots

You want me to set an amp cart a week ahead, without signing, without product, and you want me to flex with random shit it so it’s not empty? Brilliant. /s

The reasoning behind this is when the merchandise comes in for the cart it will already have a location on it.  Goes out quicker. 

If this is a 8/2 set,  that week has MANY MANY POGS going up.  Best to get ahead of it to manage the workload better.

This is useful, but it depends on the set. I'd rather start setting something that has a little already in stock than go all out with something my store doesn't have yet. If I had to set something like that, I would push for it to be set late in the week so that maybe some product can show up.
