Warning
I received a warning on 19.11.2009 because I was not working fast enough. Let me describe the course of the day. On that day at 1:00 p.m. I was working in a supermarket, so first I restocked the shopping carts (putting the goods back on the shelves), reduced and wrote off goods, answered the phone in between, collected goods at the front at the information desk, and when the cashiers called I had to provide prices. Then at 5:30 p.m. I took a break, after which I had to write posters and set prices for some products. At 6:30 p.m. my boss called me and told me to take the pallet of mushrooms and unpack it, so I started unpacking the pallet and putting it on the shelves by date, old items to the front, new items to the back. In between, a few customers came and asked where certain items were located. In the evening, I had to keep an eye on 3 departments, as we are alone in the evenings from 6 p.m. for 3 departments. Then my store manager came at 7 p.m. and pointed to the clock and said that by 8 p.m. the 2 pallets should be unpacked. I just grinned at him, not knowing what to say. So I continued unpacking the goods. Around 7:30 p.m. we had to collect the goods at the information desk and sign shopping lists, and a few customers asked where certain items were located. At 8:00 p.m. it was time to go home. The next day I had to meet with the department manager and store manager, and a woman from the works council was also present. They started questioning everything I had explained to them, took photos of the pallets and empty shelves, and said that I had not unpacked the 2 pallets, that I was too slow, that I talked too long with the customers, and that as a retail salesperson I should see the empty shelves and fill them up. I defended myself by saying that I had to walk with the customers and show them the goods, but they didn't care and said they would take photos every time I didn't fill up the shelves. The woman from the works council couldn't help me either, and said I didn't have to sign anything and to ask her lawyer about the photos, but she was on vacation and I couldn't ask her anymore. They are allowed to continue taking photos and intimidate me like this, threatening me with warnings. The store manager wants to bully me out of the company, I have been with the company for 17 years. I wanted to tell them that we are always supposed to walk with the customers, be customer-friendly. We don't have many employees, how are we supposed to manage everything, fill shelves, serve customers, work the cash register, and so on. My
