Never seen such a blatant example of "rules for thee, not for me." This coach (she's never been my coach) feedback'd me about a month ago for wearing shorts that were too short. (And letter of the rule, she was right. No hard feelings about that, in isolation)

Just now I'm heading back for lunch and I see her setting a mod in electronics while wearing a spaghetti strap top.

It's so tempting to call her on it but what good would come of that?

I'm on modified duty for a workplace injury and they've got me door hosting till I'm cleared by a doctor to return to full duty. Gonna be at least a month.

Today there was this woman who pushed through the gate with a giant kiddie pool. I haven't quite become as hardline as some of the job-coded door hosts about that alarm going off, so I just told her "come through if you're gonna come through." It really doesn't bother me that much personally, and the AP coach has never addressed this with me -- frankly I've gotten close to fuck-all in terms of actual training.

So she comes through and just keeps coming through. I ask for a receipt, and she yells over her shoulder "My daughter has it!" and just keeps going out the door. I said something about how "that's not how anything works, but I can't stop you" (I don't think this was loud enough to be heard, but I'm not certain). She just kept going.

Then about ten minutes later she came back in. "HEY I TOLD YOU I WOULD COME BACK!" I don't remember her saying that, but at this point this is just weird as shit. So I get on the walkie and ask for AP. The front-end coach (my old coach in digital, in fact) comes on and ask me what's happened. I explain the situation to her.

And the response she gave me was an admonishment (a cordial, civil one, but an admonishment all the same) not to confront people on their way out the door. Which I already knew. She later came by and said "Don't worry about it, cause they're (gesturing toward the AP office) watching."

I'm sure that's true, but if reporting a customer's odd and suspicious behaviour, including literally walking out the door without a receipt for product, is not something I should pass up the chain, then what exactly is the point of me?

Going from ~600 picks a day in digital to pretty much just standing around all day is kinda jarring. No shade at all to the job-coded door hosts, especially as they tend (at least at my store) to be people with mobility issues. It's just not for me. Can't wait till my elbow's better.
