[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 214754, member: 7185"] I worked for a Chicago grocer in my teens. The guy that did our receiving was something else!!! He told the vendors what time to be there the first day he saw them. If they were late, they went [I]straight[/I] to the rear of the line. At the peak of his day, he'd have 5 or more vendors/suppliers waiting to get in. He kept the backroom clean and organized to the point that one could [I]actually[/I] get around! Well, one day he was promoted to district management, responsible for making all stores receiving run like that one store. The first day after his departure, receiving melted down. I walked in the store that day and a manager friend winked and nodded towards the office. We went into an office and the guy put our former receiver on speaker. He was [B][I]screaming[/I][/B]!!!!! It turned out he'd been on cell phones and conference calls all day, trying to get receiving running smoothly. Three days after his departure, he came back, put on his old receiver's uniform and went to work, training the new guy and yelling at vendors/suppliers. Took about a six working days and 12 hour plus days before he left again. No more receiving debacles! -Rocky [/QUOTE]
