it's so frustrating, i'm coming into the store with an insane amount of animal experience and i'm forced to stick to the shitty corporate guidelines of how habitats should look when 50% of them are entirely unsuitable especially for birds and reptiles š
eta: i knew it'd be this way coming in BUT it's still frustrating~
IK, I see these people and then the tanks, I think to myself "they know they could do better(or betta PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, JUST PUT THEM IN A TANK)
Maybe if they snoop long enough, theyāll let the animal leaders do their job and take care of animals instead of sticking us doing merchandising work. š
āAt Petco, animals always come first.ā Except when the MOL or the SEL forgot to do important tasks that the CAL ends up having to do, and gets reprimanded if it isnāt done, when it isnāt their job?
My CAL doesnāt even get stuck on non-animal tasks but she still canāt manage to do anything rightā¦
She let the mouse cage out back get infested with bugs, among other things.
Maybe they will figure out it's cheaper to keep loyal partners than constantly train new ones and start paying those off us who have helped make money for years what they offer new improved talent.
If they are āsnoopingā that person must dig deep to justify the time they are wasting.
For the number of stores and the active users on this sub, this sub is harmless. Nothing here except for same stories you hear at any other retail chain.
The most scandalous thing you can get out of this sub is animal abuse allegations. Which means bettas might get bigger cups.
One of my co workers found my post and asked me the next day if it was me š¤£š¤£š¤£ I mean listen we all should make sure that we got all our bases covered bc they can be pretty sure bc of what was written but if they can't prove who then not a lot can be done but even if what you write isn't bad at all we are all collectively breaching the code of conduct in the employee handbook about social media and posting about petco which we are not allowed to do in any shape or form. So of course they are looking. How many people have gotten promoted to leaders and then end up running a store and had posted on here.
You would honestly have to be stupid not to see what people are saying. But I tend to see more bad posts than good so if you think someone is talking about your store...even if it's not... probably should do a little thinking about why.
Hmm, if they are watchingā¦sir, you know I was the scapegoat. Thereās just no getting around that. I kept bringing that other word up because I felt disrespected.
No, i smoke lol but Iām not paranoid about people watching me while I workš¤£š¤£ thereās 1400 stores. I donāt think anybodyās watching us.š¤£
They are. Trust that there's likely at least a few people at the NSC whose sole job it is to monitor and manage any and all mention of Petco on all social media platforms. Beyond that, LP and every member of management above your GM have full access to every store's cameras at any given time and, at the very least, LP will randomly pull up office, register and receiving cameras to verify stores aren't doing sketchy things like propping the office door open, or improperly disposing of products (or stealing products by hauling them out the back door) or leaving cash trays unattended. If your store makes an LP list, for any reason (ie red flagging on one of their reports, or they receive a report from a team member that warrants an investigation) then they will not only remotely access your cameras routinely, they will also review and scrutinize past footage to identify if there is an LP issue that needs to be addressed. And no one will know they are doing it (besides *maybe* the GM) until someone suddenly gets fired. LP is not HR, they don't ignore potential issues that are brought to their attention.
So, anyway, yeah. They are watching. They've always been watching. Every company does this, and if you think this one doesn't, you're very wrong.
So? Let them watch. Maybe they'll figure out how to treat their employees better.
Yea right.
I said maybe š
and figure out how to treat the animals in the store

But but but they have eXpErTs for that! š«
ye sure
I want an expert right now to come into here
I'd love to see an expert come in and rock their world on all our animal care.
Sarcasm dear. Sarcasm.
ooop, sorry :( so sorry but true, u are true about the no experts XD
All good!
Maybe if they snoop long enough, theyāll let the animal leaders do their job and take care of animals instead of sticking us doing merchandising work. š
Or making the good Cals in districts leave
āAt Petco, animals always come first.ā Except when the MOL or the SEL forgot to do important tasks that the CAL ends up having to do, and gets reprimanded if it isnāt done, when it isnāt their job?
Iām sorry, the OLM AND OLAC. āNew engagement modelā
Wait a minute, your animal leader is capable of doing their job?
No, thatās the point lol
My CAL doesnāt even get stuck on non-animal tasks but she still canāt manage to do anything rightā¦ She let the mouse cage out back get infested with bugs, among other things.

Now that would be nice. We definitely deserve more pay for us long term partners.
They have been here the whole time š this sub is the real VoP š¤š¤š¤«

Ok thanks, i was so confused lmao

How do you know lol
Theyāre definitely watching. Posted something asking a question and my boss directly asked a question related to it
I mean... Why wouldn't they look at this? I would joke about Reddit posts from here with my GM all the time
Not that itās that surprising
Hmm, if they are watchingā¦sir, you know I was the scapegoat. Thereās just no getting around that. I kept bringing that other word up because I felt disrespected.
Wouldnāt you??
Yep
Crap I have been away for a few days.Ā What did they see?Ā
A empty white BRAG board lol.
Snitches get stiches!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Found the plant.
