Zoning while babysitting the registers
There’s nothing like trying to zone your aisle only to be called up front every ten minutes because we’re short on cashiers again. You can’t even finish a section without hearing your name over the walkie. I get that backup is part of the job, but it’s exhausting to be constantly pulled between tasks. By the time I get back to my department, customers think I’ve abandoned it. Then leads want to know why it’s not finished. It’s like being held responsible for two full jobs without being given the time to do either one properly. It burns people out fast—and nobody seems to notice unless a complaint shows up in their inbox.
