If your warehouse runs out the first day of the ad, and send max quantities or none at all. Literally EVERY SINGLE TIME the small Tide bottles go on sale, our warehouse runs out on the truck after the ad begins. Literally like clockwork. Same thing with the Mayo and Ketchup for that 1 day .99 sale a while ag...

How do you tell an autistic individual about the three foot bubble rule for personal space? I keep having an autistic employee flirt with me and I'm starting to get offended. I've beat politely around the bush but each time he comes and talks to me his face is literally one foot from mine. If I tell him d...

Have any stores started this new order evolution thing yet? Anyone have any details? Apparently, they are doing away with CAO from what I've heard.

I am a seafood lead and under the local 540 union. Long story short, my coordinator has told me he's transferring me to a store further away and if I don't go I will be demoted.

The new contract we were not allowed to read before being voted on, which apparently passed, adds a spousal coverage surcharge along with the insurance increase. So not only is your insurance going to double, tack on 250$ a month if you want your spouse covered. starts 1/1/19

I fart all day long, and it really pisses the boss off! Sometimes, I fart right before somebody is scheduled to come in our office, and then I will leave which makes our guest think that it was my boss who farted. My farts are quite stinky, and linger for a long time.
