I'm exhausted.
How much more work have you been doing lately compared to, say, just a few months ago?

I work so much doing trucks,orders,Trax and generally fixing merchandisers mistakes and orders that I ended up up in the hospital with heart problems due to the ongoing stress that is being caused.
About 6 to 8 months
So I remember some what of the super territory’s years ago ! Does anyone on here know how long it took to abort that and go back to the way it originally was with regular territories ??
Everyone is overwhelmed. I'm pretty sure everyone that works for this company is looking for a way out at this point.
To the self proclaimed DM on here, I don't really buy what you are selling. I don't think even you buy it. M1 is the stupidest idea our company has ever tried to roll out. You and everyone on here knows it. When we tried this kind of setup 20+ years back, we at least had good people in place to try and make it work. But despite that, it didn't. The people we had then actually cared about the work they did. They actually looked at this as a career worth trying and fighting for. We knew what we were getting into when we accepted the job and the responsibility. The methods you are going about this time around is self-destructive. Throwing all this extra responsibility with no kind of real pay incentive on merchandisers who have no idea what is coming, RMSs that are now realizing the overloading situation that they now are going to find themselves in, and even you DMs knowing that your positions are most likely going to be extinct soon enough, all because of the company wanting to be greedy and put profit and budget over the people who actually got them to the financial status they are in. It's going to all blow up in their faces and they are going to be scrambling trying to go back to the way it was. But guess what, people are not as desperate or willing to give the company that tossed them aside another chance like before. What's coming is going to be ugly. You know it as much as we all do.
STFU fake a-s non-DM troll!!!
DM here. My job has become really stressful since the rollout of M1. It's so hard motivating my people to produce quality work. M1 is one of best ideas this company has ever come up with, but we need people to step up and stop whining. People should be glad to have a job with a great company.
I left this company back in Sept and I still get calls from various receivers asking when someone from Nabisco is coming to put up the order. I feel bad for y'all.
Been rough for everyone. All levels. RMS especially. Calls hourly, loads sitting.
Your biggest problem is routing you got somebody doing the routing who got no clue how things work on the street just crunching numbers and has no idea what’s involved in servicing stores
What a disaster. It never ends. The worse roll out in my career. Large territories never worked in the past. Say goodbye
That’ll be never! Don’t be fooled
I’m throwing 2-3 loads a day until we are “fully staffed”
