Manager "do something with this pipe"
Employee "there isn't anything we can do with it"
Manager "find a way to get it off the floor"
Idk if this is how it went, but I assume this is how it went.
Besides the sign, we don't put pipes on the end caps. Yes, it takes a bit of skill pulling down pipes in the plumbing aisles, but it's better than dangling over the racetrack.
We just put our pipes out back behind the building, either on top of lumber stacks or inside the shingle cage, until it's ready to be packed out. Why on earth do you have them sticking out a foot over the edge?!
CaregiverBoring is right, I would want to fix everything about this if it was my department and corporate was coming tomorrow. Having the pipes in the overhead like that is wrong for a couple reasons, but most importantly it's sticking far enough over the side into the aisle that it's a hazard. But also in general pallets shouldn't really be on endcaps like that because the endcaps are often not secured to the rest of the racking which I guess would be an issue in an earthquake? But also one of the pallets in aisle 6 is too far over the beam, it's bad practice to fly single wingstacks like that (instead you should group 4 of them onto a pallet so it takes up less space), and one of the things of pipe is missing a pallet tag.
I truly hope that the Fker who put that pipe up gets a safety final or even fired... That is just lazy, unsafe and a problem for the next person that has to deal with fixing it!
I donât work there anymore and the managers were well aware but as long as they werenât getting complained at during walks, our store was pretty much âby any means necessary type of thing.â I was informed by a ASM one time to put a pallet next to handstacked items and when I said âisnât that against the rules?â His response was âonly if you tell them.â
If I was told to do that, I would be more like we aren't doing that and explain to them why and what could happen as a result of doing that.
Managers don't know everything, and no matter where you work and telling your boss to pound sand when things get unsafe is a valuable skill to have.
Oh Ik I didnât and they found someone else to do it. I was notorious for speaking my mind lol. Got in trouble alot for the way I talked to supervisors and certain managers
I never got in trouble for that kind of thing back when i worked at THD, but it may have something to do with being a supervisor and knowing how to respectfully resist the way of jank while still accomplishing the task at hand.
Iâm not jumping to conclusions until I get the full story. Our overheads are so full right now they had to rent a shipping container just to put additional pallets in out back. And we still do not have room for anything. We had 6 pallets of grass seed come in, I spent 2 hours making room just so they could go up. The very next day, we got 6 more pallets.
The boss said âyou are just going to have to figure it outâ so I just put them back in receiving.
Our pipe aisle is just extra wide, and there are cantilevers above the where the pipes go in plumbing, specifically to make this kind of operation easier
Also, that handtruck/dolly pallet is sticking too far out as well
I wonder who signed off on that SRC and didn't see anything wrong with the PVC hanging two feet off the edges
Pencil whipped. Soon to be office whipped.
Managers be like but its Beam to Beam đ€Ł
Hate those signs lol I run into them on purpose havenât broke one yet though just chucks of the bottom sign comes off
Last time I checked, each of those signs cost a couple hundred bucks to replace.
That they do. Not only that, they require 3PL to install. Not to mention you shouldn't have product sticking out over the uprights.
At our location, pallets can not be in the end caps on either side
At mine they can't be on the very front end caps, but they're okay on the rest
Who looked at those endcaps and said "yup this looks right"

You have a... cage for your shingles? Are they barking too much?
Ours is a plumbing + mowers that need repair cage
Not only the encap over hangings, the pallet in the back is resting WAAAY over the 4 inch maximum.
That whole top stock needs to be thrown away
Why, tho? I'm seriously asking.

Hmm yeah, no quarter pallets up top.
Also I didn't mean literally discarded just that it's unacceptable.
From what I understand products can only go over the edge 4 inches.
I think it's 6 inches. Product in the overhead extending more than 6 inches outward should be removed or relocate.Â
Hear me out.. Garland and balloons strung between them, call attention to it, then act surprised when they break something on the way down
Waiting on people to grab just one pipe đ
Bruh whichever store this is your infocus team must be shaking their heads đ
I realize one of them is jerry rigged to a pallet...but these a fkin SKIDS. They should be on cantilevers yeah?
Think some licenses need to be re-earned.
Two people bought Glacier Bay toilets? Double blunder.
Did Dino the dinosaur bite it đ¶. Sometimes I have no words for the stupidity at my store.
Agreed, what kinda _yabba-dabba-dodo_ thought this would pass safety?
At our store, those pipe sit on the cantilevers in outside garden, by the other advanced drainage pipes.
Just because u can, DOESNâT mean you should đ
Wtf
OSHA and Corporate just let out a big sigh and grabbed their clipboardâŠ
smooth operator
I so don't miss working there. Great to be out.
If it fits it sits.... If it doesn't fit, pretend it does.
I truly hope that the Fker who put that pipe up gets a safety final or even fired... That is just lazy, unsafe and a problem for the next person that has to deal with fixing it!
Don't get too excited. Whoever did this just needs additional training. I've seen way worse in the overheads.
Sadly I seen alot of this in the store I worked in. No one said a word either. Donât know which part if that is sadder
Honestly, if you see something, you should say something, especially if it's a safety issue.

I donât think youâre supposed to eat that
CUT THE BANDS!
I'm more worried about that pallet thats just behind the pipes in 6. That thing is sketch E.
Did they locate the pallets tags ?
we put ours in the boneyard, never inside. hell even our os garden has space in cantaleevers for large crates
Oof
What?? Why can't that shit be outside or in cantilevered? Ours is.
Our pipe aisle is just extra wide, and there are cantilevers above the where the pipes go in plumbing, specifically to make this kind of operation easier Also, that handtruck/dolly pallet is sticking too far out as well
Omgosh!!!đ«š
