I Hate You Bread!
Permalink   


Today, it finally hit me...I really HATE stocking bread. First of all, today...I had NINE stacks of bread to stock..Nine of them, that is nuts. I hate taking them...trying to push them into the aisle with a dolley, dodging people. I hate stocking them in shelves, I hate pushing the empties and backstock to the back room...and I hate conditioning them. I hate bread, I hate the smell, I hate everything with it.

Working the bread does seem like a monotonous job. Plus you're in one of the two most shopped sections of the store (milk is the other)., which means you're trying to work while being bombarded with customers. I do sympathize. On the plus side, you are learning different jobs in the store which makes you a more valuable as an employee. I've seen people who only know one department get their hours cut when business gets slow. If you know more than one job in the store, you've got more security. Hope it gets better for you...

Yeah, bread and milk is the most two shopped areas, and with my luck...I'm stuck doing both during one day. I start the day off, at seven in the morning, stocking shelves...on good days, I get done around ten...and head over to the coolers. There are so many customers that get in my way, while I'm trying to push those bread trays...that is what makes me so bad...and hate the bread so much, as I do. Plus I smell, see, and feel bread way too much...I'm just way too sick of doing it each and every day. I want my night job back!

Sorry, running trucks with pieces and facing shelves is no where close to being as chaotic when comparing with bread. I've worked in just about every department, either being a department head or a backup.

And you are mad about 9 stacks? Dude, I have 15ish once a week, on a normal basis. And I'm talking that is 15 stacks, for 1 of the 4 days we get bread.  Not only that, but I have to do all the markdowns, rotation, condition, etc, by myself. They give me about 3-4 hours a day to do this.  My markdown percentage is amazingly high, as well.

Believe me, I hate bread with all my heart, too. But you just have to have that '**** you' smile on your face when they ask you if you're almost done and why you're taking so long. :)
