Are delis getting a store wide change, or is it just our deli? We had to go to a training meet to learn about all the new stuff that's coming. I was just curious. We're getting a new system for wrapping meat and also for labeling it with dates, among other things.

Question to throw out to anyone that wants to listen. Should a lead have the right to have Saturdays off because a mgr is favoring them, over a more senior person who is also a lead?? Sounds like big time issues brewing here.
