Anyone know how to get this off?

My mom bought this cup from the store, but the translucent part is dead stuck on there (it’s supposed to come off. She went to the store and saw multiple of this cup, picked one up and the top come off easily, but the one in the picture was a color she liked so she got it without checking to see if the top would come off as well.)

Been trying to twist it off for about 15 minutes now and my arm hurts, it’s not even budging. Any ideas?

She doesn’t want to use tools since it may strip the top but I’m open to anything.

Former and current pickers, have you ever hit a kid with your cart?

I almost hit a guy's baby today. Was walking fast with my cart and a baby comes crawling out the aisle, i pull my cart so I saw it in time and stopped, would’ve hit its head if I didn’t stop in time. The father was on the other end of the aisle looking at some suitcase, heard me stop, looked over, then just casually walked over, grabbed his baby, and said “sorry about that, boss.” Then went back over to where he was.

So yeah, fun day at work. Have any of you ever hit someone’s kid? And if so, what happened?

Putting frozen items in the cooler because we’re not paying attention…🤦‍♂️

Do dispensers actually use this?

I’ve been working in ogp for about 8 months now and I have never seen dispensers do anything with this. I see our dispensers always going to dispense orders with alcohol and they won’t have a label on it. I remember back when training we (me and the other person who joined) that we need to make sure when picking alcohol to put this label on the tote, so every time I pick alcohol I put the label on the tote. But I’m wonder if I shouldn’t even bother because other pickers don’t do it and it seems like dispensers don’t do anything with the label if it does go out with the tote.

Funny story but one day I was helping a dispenser prep, I brought up that there was alcohol in the tote without a label and he looked at the tote and was like “ok??”. Then I said “aren’t we supposed to be putting labels on the tote with alcohol”, he went silent for a second then said “oh, yeah, we are supposed to be doing that.” Then slapped one on there.

Our couch and TLs don’t say anything about so I’m curious if this is something that’s outdated or just a us thing.

Since some said it varies by state, I live in Texas

how hard does you guys' management enforce the nothing on top policy?

I usually have a printer with me, and with less totes and smaller walk, I think it’s more efficient to grab things like age restricted, oversized specialty, gmds, and the other stuff if it’s size allows it to sit on the top of the cart before coming back to the back room, and if my bottom totes are all ambient as well

No one has gotten onto me about it and I see people doing the same thing but they’re pushing their carts. I pull my cart since I prefer it, but regardless, our management seems lax with it…for now.

IMO, this is the most annoying consequence of the 6 tote system…

There’s always that one tote that just has too much compact into it, having to cram items into the tote because we have less tote now is annoying because I got to perform black magic to get everything to fit inside the tote, sometimes even damage the items because of have I got to push stuff down if it get too much…

Does anyone know how to remove the mirror from the frame?

I just want the mirror and could not find one that was just the mirror without the annoying frame. I tried prying the mirror out with a small, slim edge (another mirror which was the same) but all I did was crack the mirror.

(The mirror is double sided)

I personally prefer pulling the carts and still pull even with the six totes thing, only time I push is when I’m in a narrow aisle with customers on it. But, pulling the carts does not magically make the number of accidents drop.

This happened during the always pull period, where we had to pull no matter what and couldn’t even push in aisles. I grabbed my item and was going to leave but there were two guys off to the side looking at a jar of something, not paying attention. I typically push past customers in narrow aisle but I had already gotten in trouble previously after someone saw me pushing the cart in an aisle and reported me. So I go to pass while pushing, I adjust so I can pass without hitting them, and then BAM, I hit one of the guys in the hip because this dude backed up without checking his surroundings and the corner of the cart hit him. The guy admitted fault because he wasn’t paying attention and in his words “didn’t know you were there”, but this could have been avoided if we were allowed to push still, because I would have saw him backing up and stopped before contact or at least could have lessened the impact because I hit the dude hard.

While it may avoid accidents coming out of aisles, especially with old people and kids, it only breeds problems in narrow aisles

I don’t browse using chrome since it sucks (Firefox and Brave are better), but I do use it for Lens. For context, I was able to use Lens no problem and safe search was off on my old phone. But I upgrade to a new phone a few months ago and this is the first time I’ve used chrome since upgrading and it’s straight up just saying no and I can’t even turn safe search off. I’m not on my work's WiFi, I’m at home. I searched settings but didn’t find anything. I was originally not logged into my Google account, but I logged into it and it still gave me the same thing, and my Google account is over 18 years. And this is my own personal phone

My phone is typically at 45% by the time I go to lunch, and I have a car charger so I charge the phone while having lunch. But the charging is inconsistent, sometimes the phone while only charging up by 10%, other times it charges by a lot, getting up to 90% other even 100%. Once it gets down to 10%, it’s typically the around the last hour of me working so I just grab a tc if we have one available, otherwise I just zone and stock carts. I’m just curious if there something I’m doing to reduce the charging while in my car, I only use it for gif so the only tabs open are gif and hub, and once I put it on the charger, I stays on until I go back in.
