Alejandro GalvanI can't tell you how much I hate back stock ....and I deal with the exact same problem, except this person has been working almost full time in my shop. Drives me nuts and management dose not understand why I try to do everything
Joe ShahTrain him better. That is how you get a lot of shrink !!! Better check if he is rotating, too. Full U boats after a load comes in is a sure sign things aren't getting rotated.
Needs supervision...then if not done correctly...a written warning...then termination....laziness truly has no place in a cut room/ market...if more people realized that you can't make money from products sitting in the cooler/cut room we would all have better markets....till then we ensure 😁
I'd like to know the entire story before I form an opinion on the two pictures.
We don't know what else the clerk had to deal with while working the load. How near was he/she to lunch or end of shift? You get in big trouble if you don't punch out on time. Maybe someone else made him fill the chicken too? Possibly a journeyman asked him/her to empty the trash? Maybe he had customers? Was the store open or closed when he/she worked the load? Maybe there were tons of things out of date that the manager failed to notice yesterday and the clerk had to find and remove them? There's so much that the pictures don't say for me to comment.
Some boxes not stacked nicely (like in the picture) wouldn't really bother me. What bothers me about stacking is when the warehouse stacks boxes backwards and you can't read the label. I see that all the time at Safeway when I go there. I'll get you a picture someday.

Too me it looks like most of the boxes in the top pic are empty and just needed to be taken to the cardboard baler. No big task. Balers are often full and we have to wait until they are emptied. Maybe the guy just needed to take care of some business real quick before getting that. i thought all that on my initial reply. However this post seem to be an attack on "Part time" people. Like "This is what part time people do" i find that a little insulting, and I also recognize that part time people often would really rather have full time and those positions are not being offered no matter how good of employee they are. So I can understand the mentality of not pushing yourself to perfection when it will never be rewarded by the company. So as i said before, you get what you pay for.
