Knives

What are peoples thoughts on using your own knives for departments like fresh cut of meat for example. We can never seem to get new ones and the ones we have at our store and chipped and rusty because other people dont take care of them properly. I dont want to have to pay out of pocket but I also cant use these scrappy knives we are given.

Crashout

Got yelled at by a customer bc I couldn’t do a refund over the phone for moldy bread. She was angry since she “doesn’t usually shop in store”. Ma’am even if it wasn’t against policy, how am I supposed to do a refund without you RETURNING the item 🫩

Burnout

Ive just got no idea what to do.. i don't wanna give up but the way people treat me at work sometimes and how ive just been left to run the deli alone for hours a day for the past 2 weeks is killing me mentally.

I can take it physically but man.. i barely make enough to pay my rent lately screw food in that equation..

I guess this is kind of a vent

If your gonna make fun of me and tell me my beard gaurd and face are ugly ... why even come in. I was sent into tears today because this lady wouldnt stop

.. there were 4 other customers and i finally got one of my 2 coworkers ti come help and it just feels like im thrust into these horrible situations for no reason 😞

I just hope things change. On top of that some lady basically threw (plopped and it fell over the counter into my sandwich area)

A half eaten sandwich at me and demand i make a new one recently with "real pastrami" the other day

I just really hope i can transfer or find something

Please fir the love of god treat your deli people nicely we are humans too and just want to be able to feed and house ourselves and maybe have some money to go out if were lucky

.... panick attacks almost daily at work lately 😞

Contacting HR

Hey, does anyone know the number and email to contact HR? Because my store manager has screwed up on both my vacation pay and my bereavement pay and I am not the only one they messed up on for vacation pay I am going to contact both my union and HR first before even speaking to them because a lot of us are fed up with this store manager. If they cannot do something that simple then they should not be running a store... I would like to email them as well so I have a paper trail against the manager and have evidence of their incompetence. I really hope I'm not the only one that their store manager is screwing them over actively. But I know that might not be true

Made up beer prices

My E. Washington Safeway has 6-packs of Georgetown beer on sale for $13.99 and showing a reg price of $17.99. For a savings of $5! It wasn't too long ago you could get a 12 pack for 13.99. I think Safeway is just artificially inflating shelf prices to trick the non savvy shopper into thinking they're getting a deal.
