Do you ever help pull items forward for the wagies? A cute girl (female) was finishing restocking the isle I was shopping on the opposite end so I refaced some product near me that people had recently grabbed along with my own shit and she followed me up to the register and opened up a lane for me. Should I have asked for her number? More importantly, what is your face game like?

I guess the real question is, how does this correlate to tip culture? Personally, I believe that most people who say they don't tip at all probably just tip the bare minimum. Now, they are pissed they have to tip delivery app drivers ahead of time or they might not get their goyslop.

Yeah, often. I sometimes feel like some people will miss it and be sad. I feel sad when I think I missed an item I came for.

I also help smol bitches, old n young, pull from the top shelf. I'm only 5'8", but I can usually help. A week ago I saw a young weeb kid and her mom trying to find mirin. Had it clipped and visible on their phone. They were saying they were gonna leave and try regular vinegar, but I saw the phone and the top shelf, barely. I mentioned I saw/asked what they were looking for, and its up there in the tall man land. I set aside my basket, picked up a bottle of balsamic, and used it to tug the mirin to where I could reach. Halfway up the shelf. My minimal height of 6+ inches on them helped. Its nice to be nice. They thanked me a lot and the daughter was talking about w.e weeb shit they were gonna make as I left asap. (Public encounters weird me out s bit.) They got the last bottle.

The real question is.. when you buy 2 or 3 more than you need and there's just ONE left.. do you leave the one, since you've hoarded enough, or do you clean house?

I get by in life well enough, but please, somebody, rate me on a 1 to 10 scale of retarded and austimo?

Wagies literally do everything. They raise fruit and veges and harvest them. They raise cattle and pick up the literal shit. They build roads. They purify your water. They run nuclear power plants.

Walmart also calls it zoning. Closing associates zone in an area according to thier job code with a one to two hour zone in grocery at the start of their shift. The grocery zone is typically led by one of the salesfloor team leads. If I lead the zone, I try to collect go backs and cardboard to give the assocaites to give the associates more time to zone and declutter their carts. When I zone, I try to be as detailed as I can to make sure a section is faced according to modular, but I am still attemping to balance that with not spending too much time in one aisle\section.
How is zoning as a team? A coach in my store have tried bringing all the 2nd shift salesfloor associates together to try and "swarm zone" the store but it has has mixed, but mostly negitive, results for the zone.
