So you think if the cart guy helped out the full time in the remote orders they wouldn't reduce a head count from that role? You know very little about how businesses run.

You could call me a cunt, but you're either naive or don't give a fuck about anything other than having acres of space for your SUV.

As someone who has done this job, I promise you, there's always another task to accomplish. Normally the cart fetchers are also the store's defacto janitorial staff, and there's plenty of cleaning to be done at a grocery store. You are ignorant in this arena.

Why do you think there is always another job to accomplish? Do you think that work magically appeared out of nowhere? Do you think your colleagues are slacking or do you think they had removed a head count from the cleaning staff because the cart staff will now do that role?

Dude there's never fucking been a role that was just cart fetching what gives you this weird ass idea

Not where you work.

You also failed to answer any of my points. If the head count is 0.25 per hour rather than 0.75, they'll combine rolls and cut a head count. If 2 roles require 0.75, then they need 1.5 staff and need to round up, if it's 1.1, they round down and a headcount gone. The shift will be run with 70 staff rather than 71.

How can you work in the role and not know how it works?

Oh hey look they can't read, either! No wonder their arguments are so piss poor
