knew a guy who went onto nights. never saw him until 3 months later. Guy looked like he'd aged about 25 years. Nights aren't worth it. Another guy I knew drank 2 litres of coke a night just to stay awake. I'd did a night once, I'll never do one again. It's not worth it. Fucks up your body clock and it's lonely as hell looking out into the blue yonder and all house lights are off.
My friend was a night shift worker .. he said some of them would complain that the person that worked the night before didn't do their jobs properly cause overstock could go out on the shelf ..... I'm pretty sure customers buy things that's why stuff will go out the next night 😂😂😂and somehow cause the shelves were a mess the person the night before was to blame ? Are all the night shift workers that level of stupidity ?? Cause they can't function in the day like normal humans 😂😂
How does my body recognize and remember exactly how this feels. Like muscle memory for working in retail for years. Every move and way of doing things is so familiar. Especially at ALDI where the food is kept in the boxes its delivered in.
Would you say this is a relaxing and non-overwhelming job? I just found out I am on the autism spectrum and need something that won’t cause me to burnout.
I recently got hired for a pretty cool position, that I think ppl would enjoy seeing my pov. I am a bit older so I am not hip to the best camera/audio equipment to use that would be the least noticeable. Any help or tips or advice from anyone would be appreciated! Thanks 🙏
Starting my first overnight stocking job and super nervous . Don’t know why because I come from a construction background and am used to pressure . How do you know where to stock it before you open the cardboard ? Just muscle memory or are you looking at the numbers
I assume you've found this out by now, but it's usually a combination of both. when you're new to an area, you start out by leaning on the universal product code that you can find on the barcode and on the tag. eventually after doing this a while, you start to just look at it and know. I've been a seasonal employee at my store for a year (6 months of cumulative on-time) and it took me maybe 2 weeks of stocking before I got to the point of "This box is yellow. Therefore, it is a box of unsweetened coconut milk and it goes right next to the olive oil at knee level." I work a day shift so being asked where shit is probably accelerated it for me. this is for anyone who wanted to ask the same question
@@Lyfty057 it’s easy . Basically you learn the store after a couple days / weeks . Luckily mine is only 16 isles total including paper towels and diapers . If you can’t find a product you just look at the serial code and it’s the last 4 digits you find on it on the price tag . If it’s a new product you jsut toss it too the side and ask your lead . Usually they will say to put it in an open spot and take one to the scan room for the scan person to cut in. My advice is to not work so fast and take your time . The first week or two I was super sore , because I’m constantly moving about 12-16k steps a night = 6/7 miles .. I recommend nice shoes with some good insoles . Also instead of being on your knees just grab a milk crate and sit on it when your doing knee level and under , and use it to also go top shelf .
@@blitzn00dle50 yes it was all fairly simple once you get a routine . I didn’t get any training or orientation. They jsut threw me in and said figure it out as I go lol
Did this for 14 years. Now I'm meat manager lol. You're doing too much waking back and fourth. It's more productive to spot it quick then throw or park at the front of the aisle and work your way down. This saves time on walking back and fourth. You'll get more cases per hour.
How do regular grocery stores work in terms of inventory? For us, we have a Front of House (FOH) and a Back of House (BOH). Let's say 24 units come in, and 12 fit in the lane (1 home). We then destock 12 units to a BOH bin, like D.100.RACK10.C01. On the handheld device, we have a replenishment tool that guides us in the store on where to go and restock the items. I assume for you guys, you guys get exactly what they need for the most part, and if any overstock is left, they just put it on pallets and general storage carts. The overstock will get stocked throughout the day. Is that correct?
Overnight stockers dont do first in and first out rotations of product , they only got time to stock up the shelves on a time limit before the store opens , that's where the day crew zones and checks products to bring up old and put new in the back
yep. once had a coworker finish an entire cart/buggie in like 3 minutes. thank god he quit that day seemingly. he refused to throw the boxes away properly into the big cardboard presser. and just walked outta there
@@seboxame4124 it's.going great mate, thanks for asking. I work at the back doing splitting which is basically putting items from pallets onto cages which go onto the isles for packing. They are easy going when you start but yeah definitely a lot of work. Not a day that I haven't woken up with a sore back lol.
