Dasda
I used to work in a supermarket chain.. I worked on the petfood aisle.. Stacking pet food.. It was the crappiest job ever.. The worst part was the grocery dept 'huddle' where the recent sales and wastage stats were discussed.. And I quote... 'hello team! Are we ready for our huddle? Great! This week we have done really well! We sold 2 percent more grocery goods than last week... But we did produce a bit more waste than last week.. No one had any days off and you're all great... Now then... Lets go and display some veg for sale! And keep those aisles tidy! Off we go team!' I don't think that anyone in management had sussed out that anyone who stacked dog food from 8pm till 6am whilst being forced to listen to the punishment that is dasda fm really doesn't give a flying fuck at a twunting doughnut about sales stats and just wants to start on the 3 tonnes of bakers complete that are waiting in the stores... Face stabbings = appropriate really...

Well...
That’s true of you want to spend the rest of your life stacking dog food.

BUT this sort of thing allows, even a dog food stacker, to progress in the company. By involving you in things like sales and wastage you can get involved. If you see an opportunity for improvement on the shop floor you can point it out. It can be your first step on the ladder. Who knows some day you could be stacking fresh produce!
