HOLIDAY TIME

 

HOLIDAY TIME:

Holidays to us merchandisers can only mean; more work,crowded backrooms/stores, and empty shelves. While everyone is getting ready to celebrate we are getting pounded with extra product and big deliveries that we can't fit in our backrooms.

MORE WORK:
 Some say this is the time that separates the men from the kids. 12hr days of none stop working  and for some 6 or 7 days a week, and what we all hate the most extra stores.

CROWDED BACKROOMS/STORES
The store are crowded since early morning, and you have a hard time filling the shelves and coolers because people don't want to move. The backrooms are full of extra stuff not only of soda, but  all the other venders. When your delivery comes their just not place to put it you space for 3 pallets and 8 came in theirs nothing say but Good Luck.

EMPTY SHELVES
The shelves you already know are going to be empty, and end-caps, displays,side stacks,racks and just everywhere you look. The bigger the store the worst and it only means you might have to (2nd pull, remerch).
