So, I was the Redditor who previously asked about Aisle of the Day. Well, today it was aisle 3(condiments, salad dressings). I find it hilarious seeing 14 people work one aisle for 40 minutes. Btw, I work for a vendor. I ask why can't aisle 15 be the aisle of the day and I was told it was the aisle of the day on my day off. Like wtf. Anyway, to the fun part. A GRS comes back to the DSD eith a buggy full of overstock/out of dates and it is all mixed together. The look on her face was hotter than the last few days around these parts. Then DSD tells me she is about to go to an AVS meeting in 10 minutes and let me know what to do with my float. I succeeded in not busting out laughing immediately on the spot and holding it together. But I knew she was about to burn that AVS room down. Can't wait to be back in that store on Friday.

So I have heard stores are now doing a new thing called "Aisle of the Day." I witnessed it in person today at a certain Publix, where Dairy was the "Aisle of the day."

I saw every department manager(ADM or DM) and grocery clerks just surround the dairy with like 4 birds just going to town.

My question is, why is it necessary for all these people to take over a certain Aisle? Some associates told me 2 days ago it was paper products. Like really? Do the paper products need that much attention? I'm confused on how Publix runs things so much now.

Prepare tender subs like they're tacos? Opening up that sub roll, stuffing it full of tenders and topping it to where if I eat it like a regular sub, one side is full of everything, while the other is just tenders and bread. But, if I eat it like a taco, toppings in every bite. Make it make sense.

To customer!

So this is what it feels like. Got offered another job with distribution at better pay and couldn't say no.

Tbh, I'm glad I am away now from all the toxicity working for Publix. The high school drama and being told by management the way to move up is kiss booty and I'm sorry I am not about that life.

Most draining last 3 years of my life, now washed away and I feel like a new person.
