So in the Grocery area of our store, management has decided to reduce markdowns (where we lower the price of food about to expire,  or if we have an overabundance of it) by telling us to only stock to the rate of sale.   That means if we sell 4 Eye of Round steaks we only put out 4 for the whole day essentially.

However last Saturday, because we followed this new rule (and we were shorthanded all throughout the grocery side ) we had empty shelves EVERYWHERE.  Our market manager happened to shop that day, and ripped our managers a new one.

So what plan do these managers concoct to make sure something like that happens?

They give us "a new gameplan"...

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
Seems like a solid idea.

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
Nice blog.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

and that's why you're not manager material.

Rockets on my X
This one time, I shoveled a dump truck worth of sand into a pit, and spread all the sand out and shaped it.

Only to have the boss come over and say that there were errors in the blueprints. And that the sand needed to be removed from the pit. By hand. In a wheelbarrow. Lifted back out of the pit. All of it. A dump truck's worth.

Boy I tell ya hwat.

A few laborers quit on that same day.

All I can say is lolretail. Many things like that happen to me too. And managers treat me like I'm 16 when I'm 23 with a college degree. Luckily drinking everyday and watching Archer helps.
