So our store does the stupid friendly neighbor thing and I HATE it. If you’re not familiar with it, essentially we’re not allowed to have any overstock in the back at all. Got a row full of Cheerios? Better put the extra behind the Reese’s puffs next to it. Too many gallons of water? Too bad better find somewhere else on the floor to put it because got forbid we use the stockroom for stock. 🙄 so essentially if something is full we have to have put the product behind or next to something else. Or find anywhere but the stockroom to put it. Doesn’t matter if it’s for a reset or if we have 250 bottles of hand sanitizer it’s gotta go out. Does anyone else’s store actually do this? It drives me bonkers. Facing is hard because we put shit where it doesn’t go so if you face it you’re actually putting it in front of the wrong Mylar and it creates customer confusion and there’s only 1 other store in the district that I know of that does this and we only do it bc that store manager trained our new SM so they do it the way the other manager told them. Is this like a company wide thing or did that manager just make it up bc even other stores in the district don’t know what tf friendly neighbor is.
