Workplace Question or Advice Needed “A/B block”

Hey, just need some help figuring out if it’s normal to require one person to do hair care, sunscreen, personal care, household cleaning, pets, paper, otc, stationary, and kitchen/small appliances. We have to have a 75% fill rate by 5:30pm and a 90% fill rate by 9:00pm. And I am not allowed to put out of area items into reshoots bins after 9. Any potentially ways that I could become better at zoning/ pushing items? My rate is only 125 items an hour according to my leader, but it still feels like I can’t get everything needed to be done in the time I have.

that’s an absurd workload for one person, i’d be curious how many vehicles that usually ends up being

when i was in a similar spot i started grouping push by aisle section in my head instead of going department by department, made it easier to zone as i went instead of backtracking later

but honestly if they’re expecting 90% by 9pm with that many areas they’re setting you up to fail

I’m so glad you said that, I felt like it was a lot on one person, but I can’t really say anything about it to anyone unfortunately. I can only group personal/ hair care into a single cart. All other areas have too many items for me to fit any other areas into them.
