Staffing at retail stores on a Saturday. This happened to me at both Petco and Walgreen's this past Saturday. What does a store manager do these days? Isn't Saturday one of the busier retail shopping days? Almost everyone is off work and running errands, picking up stuff, etc. One would think the store manager would staff their stores to provide the highest level of service to bring in the $$.
At both stores they only had ONE register open, a LONG line of customers (at Petco there were pets in line too - which I love, but even they were getting impatient). and invariably the staff that's working on Saturday are the newest, least trained people and no supervisors available when problems arise which delays the line even more.
It was all I could do to restrain myself from having a fit (I was having a bad day too) and the delays and incompetent staff weren't helping my mood.![]()
