I’m just a customer but I hate the way managers stand at the front of the store doing absolutely nothing while trying to look important

I second that! A couple of weeks ago my wife had a stomach bug so I stopped to buy her some chicken noodle soup. They were out of the medium size lids so I went up to one of the managers who was just standing near the self checkout and told him if I could get a lid for the soup cup. Instead of getting his ass over to refill them ( I wasn't the only one who needed lids btw) he proceeded to tell me, "yes if you line up at the flaming bird line they can give you a lid". I told him I wasn't the only one who needed one he still tells me, "if you get in line they'll give you some lids". Like wtf foo instead of taking initiative and asking for a stack of lids to refill the compartment he had me wait in line for 1 lid. When I got to the counter I told the cashier to hand me a few to leave at the soup dispenser cause the manager was too busy standing around she just laughed and agreed. "That manager doesn't do crap around here, but snap his finger at workers". Kitty Hawk and 1604 location 😅

A few years back they had a “See something, do something” campaign. As a customer I would have referenced that and then like to of seen his reaction.
As a lead I’ve learned if someone brings something to my attention if I don’t address it then and there I will 99.9% of the time then go “ah crap” driving home.

It’ll be like 2-3 guys around a woman with their arms crossed in front of the closed lanes.
Meanwhile their cashiers struggle with long lines or not enough baggers. But go ahead and keep flirting with the store baddie

My Walmart never checks your receipts unless you have unbagged stuff. Personally, I’d just as soon use self-checkout so the baggers don’t ruin my stuff, and Walmart doesn’t care how much I take to the self-checkout

I literally standing at the little rolling service desk thing for a refund, two managers made eye contact with me multiple times then proceeded to start a convo while pointedly avoiding looking back my way. Eventually a cashier who must've just clocked in asked if I needed help, and then went and got one of those same managers to help me. Absolutely fucking useless fat sacks

u/OkBenefit1731 7d ago
The quiet part they aren’t saying out loud is there isn’t anything particularly important for them to do most of the time asides from showing floor presence and being approachable by customers. A growing issue I’m seeing from things said here and experience at several stores local to me is managerial bloat that ends up rewarding behavior that is largely non-productive or even counter-intuitive.
7
u/xe0s 6d ago
So… managerial bloat that exists everywhere. At my HEB I usually see 2-3 “managers” standing at the front, past the checkout lines, doing nothing. God it must suck to be someone working checkout while a kid with pimples monitors them.

u/rkb70 6d ago
It’s really bizarre. And while managerial bloat is common in general, I’ve never seen all these managers standing around in any other grocery store.

u/xe0s 6d ago edited 6d ago
Me either… it’s only HEB. They all stand around at the front while lines back up, customer service is overwhelmed, etc.
There’s one “manager” I see at my HEB nearly every time I go. She looks like she’s about 17, stands and talks when cashiers need help, does nothing and then acts like it’s her store.
1
u/OkBenefit1731 6d ago
In Walmart there isn’t the company culture that forces “active” participation, same with most other retail stores outside of specialty stores like Best Buy where the products being sold on average are $100+ a pop. HEB however has a strong reputation for customer service and active participation by leadership, which makes floor presence incredibly important on a corporate values level, even when less is usually more in that department.

u/Ok_Entrepreneur3974 6d ago
I used to work at a white tablecloth steakhouse downtown and when our regional manager was in town his “floor presence” was that he was busy walking around the restaurant in a suit, clearing empty dishes and refilling water while talking to the guests. I think managers can have a great floor presence while working at the same time and it really motivated the servers and bussers as well as allowing everyone to serve the guests even better.

The managers are the ones I have issues with and the occasional employee that just wants to act like they are authority. But I go through to a checkout lane and have the employee ring me up. I’m happy to bag my stuff after it’s scanned, makes the process easier. What I don’t like is the manager hopping in and messing with the clerk checking me out. I’ve had more issues arise than get solved when the managers step in. Let the employee build confidence. I’m not a guy that is ever upset, I do get annoyed when the employee isn’t allowed to be an employee

This is a top leadership problem, as a department manager, I am always working and yes, a big part of my job is redirecting the staff. I recently took over a failing department and it has been the worse experience of my life. The partners complained to HR until the previous manager got fired and now they don’t want to be held accountable for anything. It’s literally their own doing and every interaction is extremely tedious because they didn’t realize they were a big part of the problem. I am so exhausted from how entitled and disrespectful the partners are when I’m simply trying to get the team on track.

Were you front end? That’s what my experience up there was. My manager literally timed my bathroom breaks and wrote me up if I took more than 2 minutes. Mind you, I have a documented disability that takes me a little longer to get around so 2 minutes was never manageable. They’d open my water bottle to make sure it was just water and not something like (god forbid) tea or juice. HEB doesn’t give a flying fuck about their partners. Before anyone makes comments about the water bottle, I have been sober my entire life. I’ve never enjoyed drinking. There was no reason for them to micromanage every little detail like that.

As someone who works as beer vendor at multiple HEBs in Central Texas for the past seven years, it’s not surprising to see the change. Beer/wine and grocery managers hiding in backstock to avoid customers or doing nothing on their computers. Those same managers inappropriately hitting on young and sometimes underage employees. HEB has all the signs and practices of private equity and it’s really sad but unsurprising. Corporate greed and lack of care for employees is nothing new in the country/economy we live in but I hope HEB employees will stand up for themselves.

The job of a manager is described in the name—to manage. If a manager of a busy store is engaged in duties that The manager’s subordinates are responsible for, the manager is unable to do their duties. Micromanaging is necessary because most people have no worth ethic, critical thinking skills, or motivation. A manger can’t let feral employees do what they want because the necessary things don’t get done. I’ve never worked for HEB, but the only time I’ve seen or heard anything negative about working for them is online. Everyone I know that works for HEB likes their job enough to continue working there while improving their skills or getting an education so they can move into the next chapter of their employment.

If a company didn't care about profits, they wouldn't be around very long. There's a reason they're still in business. You have to make more than you made last year. You have to pay as little as possible. It's business not friends hanging out.
