I do not like working at DC 85. The warehouse system there is moronic. Using a Distribution Center as the backroom for stores and having every day deliveries is insane. 

That is why there is nothing on the shelves in certain stores that are very busy. They have no back stock to fill the shelves with. It is in the warehouse.

You can't tell me that it is nobody to work the back stock, because if that was the case the orders wouldn't keep coming in to the warehouse.

The stores should have back rooms/coolers for back stock. The back stock should have build-tos for high selling items so they do not run out of them. 

Even produce should have some back stock. 4 produce trucks a week should be sufficient for even the busiest stores once the build-tos have been established.

Build-tos also make stocking easier as the back stock is always in the same place and just gets worked. 

It is the same principle that convenience and grocery stores use with vendors that deliver directly to them.

If that is the way it is, my mistake. The problem would then be just too many stores out of one distribution center. 

I picked 2732 cases Wednesday. They kept us for 4 hours overtime. I got out 15 minutes before that as they had no small orders left and by contract they can not keep us past 4 hours overtime. 

I am too old for this shit.
