I work at Safeway as a day stocker, and sometimes I do stock frozen. But I gotta admit working in frozen, it would be stressful sometimes cuz when I have loads of frozen items on the 6 wheeler, I’ve got to be fast since frozen are perishable and could melt if I take too long.
Yeah same, but I've worked there long enough to know. Ice cream first, then the other freight. The other freight has more time to sit out but ice cream is a different story lol
You need to rotate the older food to the front ,new food behind it stocking 101. It is time consuming but it's the right way to stock products. I always grab from the back should be newer.
@@rgtmoto all frozen has to be rotated especially meat and seafood which has a shorter sell by date than 2 years...lol. It's stocking 101 to rotate dude. I was a manager for Publix supermarkets. I would never allow any of my workers to do what you are doing. If my bosses came in and started checking dates I would have to answer to them. Shrimp rings, bags of frozen fish, Tyson chicken nuggets, all that stuff needs to be rotated. All frozen....period.
Im a walmart freezer stocker, and I keep wanting to see how the overnight shift might be. I think it would be so cool to see the difference of night vs day !.
we do sometimes, takes forever but usually the dates are within a couple days of each other, maybe a week so it's not super mandatory but i completely understand where ur coming from
With dairy it's easier but with frozen the shelves suck and usually the items last longer anyways so it's not as mandatory as other departments but i still try to do it if i have time
Ding ding ding..its called rotating..this is the wrong way to stock food...This is why you and I buy out of date product..this very reason right here..he didn't rotate one thing..
I can’t say that I’ve ever bought an out of date frozen product. They have like 2year shelf life. Departments like Dairy, produce especially, meat. Rotation is a must. Frozen, not so much. I’ve eaten plenty of frozen product out of date (my own doing). Has never gotten me sick.
I worked at Metro Market for almost 2 years as a team member. Rotating was already a hassle for the majority of items. You got glass and other fragile items to worry about. Bottom line, it takes forever.😂
That's how I usually did it. We finish pretty quick, the thing we worry about is the ice cream first. The rest of the other items can sustain room temp for longer periods of time. I'm not the manager but the manager likes me there so I guess that's a good thing
I mean depending on what we get, we just put all out at one time and then just stock from there. None of the items were super thawed out. They were less frozen but not completely thawed out
@@rgtmoto it’s good to learn everything, hopefully they make you a Frozen or Dairy manager and they let you know when there is a bid open🙂 at other stores
Idont know but when i stocked i was so much quicker and used two hands to get the job done that was the grocery dept tho. I dont miss that shit a bit !
yes i undertsand the premise, frozen sells super fast and the dates are usually like 2 years out, its not really needed as much. in the dairy however, its a must since the dates are so close together
OMG I may be doing this at Food Lion soon thanks for showing me what I’m in for. How many cases is that for the row? It’s like 50 cases and because it’s frozen gotta get done a certain amount of time or it’s gonna start. I’m sure that’s OK but that’s a lot. What store are you working in

@@rgtmoto no i mean when you stock the frozen meals there is a pusher that you an just push a product in. you dont have to lay the product down so it doesnt fall

@@rgtmoto that makes sense i thought about it when i was writing the comment haha but figured the turnover rate on these wouldn't matter too much for fifo.
You've never worked in a supermarket, from what I see, rotation occurs every so often, imagine rotating everything always, it takes hours and hours, and those jobs require speed, now there are certain products which have a short expiration date therefore they are rotated immediately, it is necessary to know the products but in frozen products the dates are long therefore they are rotated every so often, greetings.
Do you want to try stocking a whole aisle? JKJK bro I get where you're coming from. You would be surprised at how long cardboard boxes hold their temperature. Sorry but i did the best i could do
Actually, it doesn't need to be only 30 min. Many boxes actually hold the temp. (Like this person mentioned ) for a long enough time. (3hat avg ,5h at best ) .so it is alright.
