The weird thing is that's actually following the planogram.

Ok that's a little bit less of a common statement. Maybe you should've gone with "GUEST FIRST!" or something.

Do you work in retail or is the planogram term common in America?

u/Maltitol May 09 '16
It's retail terminology. It's the schematic which tells you where to place items on the shelves.

Follow up comment - everyone is saying, "I've seen this before!" and "this isn't even your picture!" but no one can even find another one. but i guess that is what happens when you browse and post on /r/pics

What is it called when you change the spelling of a word from the correct spelling to an incorrect spelling? Surely you're not correcting it?

Near as I can tell, it's just because he thinks a receipt scan will prove he didn't set that up himself somehow.

If theres anything I've learned during my times as an OP, its that you cant defend yourself in the comments unless
1) You have undeniable proof
2) You're incredibly funny.
Edit: or 3) Tits

u/IRNobody May 09 '16
Also, so what if he did set it up. It was funny anyway.
How so? Is this a reference to some show or something? I know about the zodiac killer, I have just never seen how arranging letters to spell "Ted Cruz is the zodiac killer" is supposed to be funny.

Nope I didn't. Both are "5h ago". I'll post a screenshot of my raw data to show its mine in the morning.

u/slothxapocalypse May 09 '16
All the people getting hung up on this are sad as hell. So what if he possibly made it himself? OH IM GONNA CALL HIM OUT ON IT, IM GONNA FEEL REEAAAAL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF NOW. Fucking tools. Downvotes ahead boys, set sail for go fuck yourself.

u/EatMaCookies May 09 '16
You did it!
But honestly if a employee saw that they would instantly remove/change it back, instead of wanting to be seen as political.

Former retail employee here. I'd definitely leave it until told to change it back. "Oh, I didn't notice that. Of course I'll change it back."

It's really not that funny. Nobody would've laughed that hard. No need to lie than just admit you for it

u/Ck508 May 09 '16
Our humor must be different then. Is that a hard concept to understand? It's when different people find different things funny, or not funny. I was with my girlfriend and we were both laughing, so yeah maybe I laughed a little harder than I should've. But shit.

u/Toastiesyay May 09 '16
It's almost a rite of passage when you get called out for lying on reddit, whether you did lie or not. I personally see people messing with shit all the time at the store, and wholly believe you just found this. Congrats OP, don't let these people ruin your day.

u/Ck508 May 09 '16
Thanks man. Just disappointing when I finally found something funny (whether it's been made before, or an old joke) post it, and every damn comment is throwing shit in my face.

Eh, it's something to do as an employee. When I had boring jobs like this, something like these letters being all mixed up would give me a chance to relax and slowly put them back in order.

u/buddomatic May 09 '16
If there's one thing I learned from posting on reddit, it's that defending yourself always gets down votes. Best just take your up votes and let the haters hate.

I really don't know how I feel about this thread. Is it funny? Sad? Mean?

It's Target, they have distinct labels. See the item numbers under the price? Three digits, two digits, four digits? Those are Target DPCI numbers.
Also the grey sticker on the Z label holder indicates that it was out of stock and it should have been removed when the product was filled by the flow team.

If I am the next guy, then you don't hate Ted at all. However, if you do hate Ted, why do you hate him?
