In days of old I would have bothered it's pointless now.Get through my shift and out.

Me2015

Don’t forget the full counts which were scheduled at Xmas then Easter, so be more of the same this year where they will ask for non trained staff to support your f*** up the stock records!

Utter shambles of a head office team now, all yes men wanting to please rather than the proper teams we had who helped and supported us!

King1999

Yep they can get on with it biggest laugh is they still think we care.

King1999

Prime example of the BS today investigate all wines and spirits,consumables count,targeted counts gaps ....... the wine wasn't even worked they decided to do that after I had investigated it......didnt touch spirits the rest of my shift gaps and counts.No once was I asked if I was ok or needed help because no one gives a s*** about you.

smegtour

we had delivery overs and the wine osi its getting way to much.Are we meant to be doing delivery overs now

King1999

God knows like I said no one gives a s***......anyway it's impossible on your own.

smegtour

I agree they don't care a s*** all they want is more and more off everyone

smegtour

what annoys me is that we hve to do delivery overs every day and pick it up and put it back on the backstock,also with this xmas osi it has got impossible no help from my manager at all
how can tesco get away with this bringing back the rountines they got rid off.like some others on here i have had enough and i can't wait when my shift finishes

King1999

i would say the majority of people have had enough........Funnily enough treating people like s*** is ok it’s all about hours not people.Not really sure how it adds up to looking after mental health etc.......treat people how they want to be treated.......like s*** obviously,and the mentality is yeah this is normal.

Reduced routines from week 17 gap scan 3 days a week,osi 3 days a week on every other week no redundancy on offer.all other routines remain affects packaged and gm stock the most,targeted counts increasing by 25% an extra 10 for our store.Kick a department that's already down but anyway.

Heard our store has to lose 60 hours but If there is no redundancy then I guess this means grocery and GM stock control teams will probably have to start assisting fresh stock control with date scans.

I did also hear something about full counts starting again. That could be completely wrong tho
With the OSI every other week what would that be doing couple isles a day or would it be delivery overs from the night before on every isle.

Our stick team has been told its going to be a soft change so no loss of hours. Just means they will be working on other departments also. 
Tesco is getting more like aldi and Lidl weekly now.

Makes sense now that SC wasn't mention in the new Pick, Serve and Fill thing coming in Week 15.

Apparently there will be no more lows and overs too.

fscer

OSI will be 3days every 2 weeks.

The stock control team in my store has 15 people. I cannot see all of them remaining on there in light of this but our whole store is over hours so no idea where they can go.

oldfashionedplayer

thats a huge amount, we have like half of that for an extra lol, and thats classed as overmanned...

We've got 2 grocery stock controllers 2 fresh stock controllers and 6 PRS scanners.
Total hours across the 2 grocery is 55
Total 2 across the fresh is 55.5
And total across the 6 PRS scanners is something like 96-100 hours.
The 2 fresh and 2 grocery are older and been in store for ages, and have always argued against doing PRS scans which is why we've got what feels like so many PRS scanners because the older people wont do it.
The other issue is due to lack of training half the PRS people don't have a clue about the rest of the SC routines.

If they eliminate merchandising errors with capacities,distribution pick errors,gap scan errors(not looking for it)stuff sat in warehouse waste cages and incorrect counts,stock control wouldnt need many hours,i used to put money on the produce counts being wrong every week in our store,what was even more a joke,the recounts were still wrong,and the fresh senior manager didnt understand how it affected waste,productivity and availability,or maybe its just because they socialise with the stock control manager outside of work

Same set up in ours although I think we have 4 on grocery stock which does seem too high, The older ones on grocery and GM stock control won't do any PR scanning which is why they have so many what feels like kids doing it. I reckon the older ones will be told if they want to keep hours they will have to start doing PR scan and a couple of  the younger ones currently on PR will be moved.

Plus I think the one's on grocery and GM stock control are on like 30 hours. Whereas some of the PR lot are on 11. So logically its going to be the ones who do PR that are most effected as I can see them moving the older ones into there but like I say, where can the younger ones then go.

Oh yeah I forgot about GM, but I literally never see them, theres two of them. I think they're like 35 hours combined.

I could see our store doing something stupid like PR in the morning if the older members of staff wont move their hours and having them doing it and moving the younger group of PR people onto other departments, but we're over hours everywhere so no idea what they're going to do, and the younger ones can't do earlier shifts because of college and uni so dotcom is out of the question.

If they eliminate people corrupting the book stocks...counting on stock that's been wiped off, re-facing the shelves and capacities but failing to put the new labels out, putting ex promo overstock into green trays with no indication as to its contents or amount per tray, continually moving OFD's around the store, overloading the capping shelves with boxes behind boxes again no indication as to contents as no labels facing out, storing kick stools in the warehouse rather than on shop floor in accessible areas, using stock control team as spare bods to assist every dept on all hands, red calls, dot com picks ( never fresh team ) which is probably why your senior fresh is such good buddies with the SC manager  ???

No mention of cash office, wages, CSD, PFS, bakery either.

The stock control manager in our store will be speaking to as many staff as she can today in person then probably have to phone the rest so that they don't hear it second hand.

That to me sounds like some will have to move department
