Hey. HEY! PSA about Bakery's/Deli's during the Holiday Season
During the holiday season in Bakery’s and Deli’s for stores like WalMart or Hannaford we’re going about 300 miles an hour trying to keep up with orders. People want rolls and hams and turkeys, and most of this stuff can only be started a day or two before; because people who are older, lazy, or can’t cook worth shit and wanna see their in-laws face’s when they taste a good meal order basically entire Holiday meals from them.
I see a bunch people say not to be mean or rude to cashiers when thing’s don’t go your way at a store. But please don’t get angry if someone doesn’t acknowledge you right away there either. I’m not entirely sure about Deli, because I work in the Bakery at a Hannaford. But NORMALLY it may seem like there,s three people behind the counter that can help you. But the truth is that really, there is likely only one. From 9AM to about 2PM there’s a cake decorator in, one person comes in at 5 AM to do the baking. And then there is ONE person to keep an eye on and take care of the floor.
This INCLUDES packaging and putting all the stuff on the floor that the baker has already gotten done and has cooled enough. As well as keeping up with muffin cases and children who want cookies and getting frozen things out of the Freezer that need’s to be out on the floor. They also have to make sure that breads are taken off the floor at the right time and that everything that the baker is getting done is packaged and put out ASAP.
In conclusion, think before your an impatient little bitch——cause some days it really really seems worth being fired and having charges brought up against you to punch an Asshole in the face.
