Don't really know how to feel, i basically run the floor anyways, so it won't be any different. Hopefully i can brighten some days, and change some attitudes.

I hate to be a pessimist here, but that attitude isn't going to last long. You have next to no control or influence over what happens on a front end as a FES. Be prepared to be held accountable and yelled at for things that you have no control over, such as inadequate scheduling which makes maintaining acceptable QueVision ratings difficult and a real struggle on a daily basis. Of course too, having to deal with unhappy customers that cashiers/baggers pass off to you won't be a picnic either, and on the topic of cashiers and baggers, good luck getting your cashiers to be observant of lines that begin backing up and keeping track of baggers that like to disappear for extended periods of time.
Sorry, but the position flat out sucks, and it's a joke how, at least in my division, you don't even get paid any additional money for being a freaking supervisor. All that extra work, responsibility and stress for the same amount of pay as a cashier? Ridiculous.

Amen!
At our store FEM have to have open availability and work until 11:00 pm.
You actually got training? My training was "here's how 1+1 works, if it gets bad call produce and grocery up, if a customer asks for something start walking to it as you say where it is until they say okay, always wear the red vest or management will complain, good luck".
The ONLY reason I like it is that it is more entertaining. 8 hours of cashiering is awful. With FES, you usually end up with an hour on register, 30 minutes on SCO, 30 minutes at the desk (we always get asked to go up there when someone is doing a WU and there is a line, even though they also tell us to never go up to the desk), 30 minutes going up to registers scanning alcohol/answering questions/dealing with customers who can't read signs, 30 minutes talking to employees/making sure carts are getting done/doing whatever management decides needs to be done now when we are busy and the only baggers inside would do more harm than good, and 5 hours of standing around.
