Inventory. Ugh.

I am beyond exhausted ...
it has been Inventory Week
in my BigBox store,
and prepping for that can be a nightmare!

And while I am pretty easy going when it comes to the processes I do at work, when it comes to Inventory Week, I'm ... quite the opposite!  When I tell fellow co-workers that bringing defective merchandise needs to end at 8PM, or that items need a sku on them so they can be processed -- well, I don't think they listen or hear me.  There is a place for everything brought to my area, all the co-worker needs to do is find the appropriately labelled tote and drop it in.  For some reason, however, they seem to think that because I am there, I want to have a discussion with all of them (there are 400 in my store!).  I have several time constraints thrust upon me the last five days, and there is little to no comprehension ... eh, I'm just ranting a bit, but what it comes down to is having respect for me and my position, to trust that I know what I'm doing and to get it done on time.  I just wish management would convey that with authority to my co-workers.  If they did, I would be in heaven!

Because of the way my "inner bitch" was out in the open
for the past 48+ hours, I hereby am happy to announce
that despite all the setbacks and inane conversations,
I didn't 'murder' anyone --- unless dirty looks count!  hahaha  

Here's to another year behind me..... yippee!  !  !
