Middle managers get in the way at times, especially the BYO department supervisor. They tend to hover around sales associates, making us feel nervous, or assign tasks during peak sales hours. No one likes losing commission for the sake of finishing some project in the back storeroom.
Scheduling is a nightmare. Company uses Ultipro to set schedules (aka randomize schedules) for "peak store hours." Employees know their days off, but hardly ever the daily shift times they work in advance.
