How long until it starts being a stability risk? Guess this is normal for the new year, but outside of full timers and myself (lucky me somehow), baggers and cashiers have less than 20 hours this week. Today, QueVision was at max 13, and we had 4 baggers for 13 lanes. Someone complained, or we'd only have...

Did anybody else get these in their bakery department? They're suppose to be a Latin American/ Mexican dessert that's served on the Feast of the Epiphany (January 6th). They're similar in concept to a Mardi Gras King cake in the fact that there's a plastic figurine hidden inside the cake. The ones...

Two weeks ago, two customers came into the store late and bought a bunch of stuff using coupons that said they have a limit of how many coupons you can use per transaction, and the cashier was told to go ahead and take them as long as they scan and they don't have to override them. Someone later asked the sto...

I get tired of hearing that line over and over. "Oh, you're off already? Lucky you. I wish I could go home at 2." And then every time, their attitude changes as soon as I tell them "You want my schedule? I come back in again at midnight tonight." People really need to just learn to app...

I really need to vent! I have been with this company close to 30 years and have seen a lot of changes. At one point of time, the employees were like family and the upper management really cared. These past few months my opinion of this company has changed. First an employee came to work in severe pain a...

The whole concept is just a bunch of bull****. Yes, to a degree, it should matter how fast I am checking people out. BUT, some of the ways in which I have been told to increase my ring tender actually make the customers wait LONGER. 1. Help unload the cart...What happens when other people are in line be...

A manager has decided that cashiers with high CCG's need to be placed on express lanes. Working an express lane makes me want to kill myself a little more than usual. So what are good ways to artificially drop my score? It feels so difficult to slow down. Ideally, I'd like to scan at my regular speed but...

Morons..how about spending that money on your good people rather than the revolving door of quitters. It is a contract year so i'm sure we will get screwed at the same time.

I'm filling in for someone as night cashier and it will be such a relief to not have to stop what I am doing to ring out a customer at our 24/7 store. Tonight was the worst one yet, 3:30am and people still coming in and needing register 1 open, only for 5 more idiots to get in line too. I'll get my cleaning done b...
