Well so far it looks like we're the only store getting 11 trucks. 7 grocery(1 every night) and 4 Peyton. This isn't counting supplies or GM only. Man are we getting screwed over. And can hardly muster 5 men each night(including the floor man).

We need T-Shirts that reads "have you kissed your grocery night crew's ass's today"

here's the problem at my store with the grocery crew.  On the right day everyone in the department can be a good worker, it just depends on the work load or what shift they're working or even who they're working with.  We get grocery trucks early in the morning and kmp in the afternoon so they'll schedule 1 or 2 people early to run grocery then 3 or 4 guys to run the night truck.  If the truck arrives early in the afternoon and it gets set off and ready to run by say 4pm, do we call in the late shift early?  no we make them wait to come in 8 til midnight.  Personally if I was in charge I would go ahead and call the late guys in so that everyone's there at the same time to hurry up and get it done.  They don't think that way though.

Problem is they're always ripping on the late night guys about not doing enough but hell who wants to work hard when you're stuck with all lousy shifts?  We have a couple people who work til 10 or midnight every night and some only get one day off!  You've gotta cater to those who do the **** work for you!  Instead, they have meetings once a month and tell them to pick it up a little.  Now I get a lot of day shifts, but when I do get an evening shift, I'm expected to be the ring leader and keep everyone busy...but I don't like this, I don't want to work nights...it's not my job to make people work, that's the department head and backup's jobs.  The thing about them is they want to work all days and just one evening shift and then pass the buck onto me on other nights.  Well I don't go for that.  If you want someone to motivate the team, work more nights yourself, that's your job not mine!

sincerely, picking up other peoples' slack in the grocery department



So my question for y'all is this:  how many nights do your department head and backup's work?  Also what time does your crew leave at night.  Our latest regular shift ends at midnight.  The department head/backup would never work more than 1 night a week and even then they're gone by 9 at the latest, and they'll cry about that.

7 Grocery, 3 Peyton, 7 Perishable (dairy frozen produce meat), and 5 milk. I work on the night crew and we are responsible for putting up except milk eggs drug gm and meat. We are also scheduled between 8 and 11 people a night but it makes it hard when 1 is light duty another comes in late and we have 1 or 2 that call in or leave early all the time. Somehow we always manage to get things done and yet management is still always on our asses that we are not doing it fast enough.

Still beats working front end tho ;)

@tracker,  8 people at a time working a truck!!?   If they were smart they'd schedule the stores with day trucks that many hours so we could all come in get the truck done then let those who want to leave early, leave whilst those who want to stay can stay and get other work done.  As much as "they" want to believe that this idea wouldn't work because everyone would stay and use too many hours, they are quite wrong,  I bet 7 out of 8 people on my crew would take the early exit...actually SAVING the store hours!  plus we work so much better when there's the chance we may be able to leave early.

The normal crew for Monday Wednesday and friday is 10 grocery, 2 meat, 4 bake/deli, 1 produce and 2 drug gm. Our store is to busy during the day to stock shelves (we recently had a $950,000.00 week) so all of us have to work nights. Grocery and drug gm work 11 to 7:30 while meat produce and deli come in between 1am and 4am to start their shifts
