Happy December!!

HEY GUYSSSS

As of now we're down -13% which is a ton better then yesterday -33%. We've been slow on business but have had a lot of payroll for the end of November, as most of you know. Due to the excess payroll we had a ton of coverage. Having Abby free the majority of the week was AMAZING. She really kicked ass in that backstock with Andy and Janine! Shout outs! It looks so great back there. Lets PLEASE keep it this way. There is NO reason any WACC associate should be leaving anything in backstock.. Ever! Let's set a good example. If we do that, imagine what the other departments do with our product!

I was able to backstock all the new Ecote shoes that came in this week. I moved some bins around, filled, and consolidated until they fit in. Yesterday Leslie and I were working on jewelry and we re-vamped the WACC cluster peg boards so now they have fun earrings on them, and it's more organized. It looks pretty! Also, as Leslie mentioned ANDY fixed our peg board problem on the cluster!! Those annoying jewelry peg boards that customers are ALWAYS knocking over now have bases on the bottom of them!! So shout out to Andy for helping out the team!! I also spent a good hour maintaining the jewelry A-Frame which is also pretty right now! We have very little jewelry in backstock and I'd like to keep it that way. I also spent time on filling beauty, and other spot fills.

I also did a few bag moves. I brought out the Kimchi Blue metal tip tote, which we had a lot of in the back but it hasn't been on the floor for a while. I put it on the voop wall near the bathroom. Before Cedrid had placed the small black spikey bag there. However, the red spikey bag was in that wall near the bathroom so I moved the black one over into that shelving so they could live together. I also re-arranged the front table bag display, and stuffed an extra bag to put on the table to bring more eyes to the bag. I moved the colors around, hoping people would be more interested in the black and greenish colors.

~~ALSO. The holidays are almost here. If ANYONE needs time off you HAVE to request it or you are responsible to get those shifts covered. I will always try to accomdate the requests as best I can. I will be hiring 1-2 additional WACC people at least until January, if not for longer. This should help relieve the team a bit.

Overall, a very successful week. Business was weak, but it was overall through the store...
Except for the mens department. I'm onto you guys. *shifty eyes*
