NEW PROBIES

Seeing all of the new people on the night shift at work reminded me of the good old days when we would hire a couple hundred people a year and when I had to train them. Here is a top 10 list of how you can spot of a probie a mile away.

1. IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THEIR TAPER
2. IS ASKING YOU FOR A NEW KNIFE TO REPLACE THE ONE THEY JUST LOST
3. IS RUSHING FROM THE BREAK ROOM WHEN THE BELL RINGS
4. DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO GET FROM KOSAN TO THEIR CAR (AND IS ASKING YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY)
5. SHOWS UP IN D AISLE INSTEAD OF B AISLE AFTER GOING TO USE THE RESTROOM (AND NO ONE TELLS THEM THEY ARE IN THE WRONG PLACE!)
6. ACTUALLY CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR PACK RATE
7. ACTUALLY GOES BACK TO WORK WHEN THE SUPERVISOR WALKS BY
8. KEEP PUTTING THE SAME UNANTICIPATED ON THAT THEY JUST PULLED OFF
9. IS FOUND WONDERING THE PALLET RACKS TRYING TO FIND THE MISCELLANEOUS DEPARTMENT AFTER BEING FORCE THERE
10. AND THE MOST SURE FIRE WAY TO SPOT A PROBIE IS HIS NEW BACK BELT WITH SUSPENDERS STILL ATTACHED( ACTUALLY JUST WEARING A BACK BELT IS A GIVEAWAY)

Unless you work out at the DC you might not have gotten all of these. If you have any ideas for other top 10 lists let me know. My next one will be MY TOP 10 REASONS I LIKE MY NEW SHIFT. I hope you enjoy the weather tomorrow. I plan on to since I have the day off because of a shut down day. 'TILL NEXT TIME.

THE GREAT ONE
