Any tips for getting the heavy-duty achievement? I just spent 12 irl trying to get a load from Peoria to Chicago for Namiq, and I still haven't gotten one.

Electrical peeps, where do you guys keep your lift, genie, one man, whatever you wanna call it, in your store. We have kept ours in a back aisle for more than 10 years. The new GM now wants to fix something that isnt broke and move it to the other side of the store in OPD. How much of a nuisance is it with all the bulbs, selling displays, cleaning, etc.

I remember the days before GO used the so called "raise" to squeeze us to death. Used to be 1 hour of work need $250-$300 of sales. Now its double if not more. I used to have a Dm, ADM, 2 FT, and 2 PT. Now? A DM, ADM, and 2 PT. No SPIFs anywhere to be seen in my department. The last few years has been the start of Menards' downfall unless they dramatically change something.

How can somebody be so stupid that they think pulling a tag will turn on a display fan motor. On top of that, who is stupid enough to not think what would happen if it actually worked.

Is it just me or is anybody else getting blue balled when it comes to pretty much all products. We used to have to have more than what is on the floor for when people wanted it but lately it seems we have so much less. It is a huge anchor on our sales. They plan us up 16% y/y but we are stuck around 9% because we don't have what people want. Even when I email nothing changes.
