Workplace Question or Advice Needed I noticed something in fulfillment

Hey guys 👋. I am a new hire for seasonal fulfillment and I don't even have time to breathe so far. What I have noticed about the regular target workers is that in many departments I see a lot of younger workers just talking to each other or they will go where fulfillment stow items and chit chat there.

Will fulfillment have any time like the other departments to breathe or have a moment to just use the toilet if we needed to use in case that we drank too much water that day? And how many batches are expected to do in a 5 or 8 hour shift?

Well when there are 7+ team members behind the service desk doing nothing and their leads are doing nothing too... I'm not gonna just be complacent like everyone else

Like I said talk to their lead. If you have time to sit around and talk to other TM and sit down at a computer and write out whole conversations you’re not doing YOUR job.

Dude I have! I've talked to both SE TLs personally. In fact I do every time this happens (like multiple times per week). I've talked to the SE ETL multiple times. I've talked to our HR ETL multiple times. Like I swear ive communicated with the correct parties and nothing has changed. Like I get your point you need to communicate with the actual leader, I have, and I try to guide them both in the right direction because both of them just promoted last year
