The top brass will do its best to help out the technicians.  You will be invited to all the executive events held by the company.  They are a good group to work for.

You can, however, expect long hours during the summer months, weekend calls, mystery faults and many self-inflicted wounds (cashiers changing equipment settings).

A typical day at work:
You leave early, at six in the morning to make it to your first call around eight.  You ask the manager about the call, and begin troubleshooting.  As soon as you have found the problem and either ordered the part or repaired it you inform the manager and move to the next call.  This process is repeated until it's time to head home.  You can expect to change lightbulbs, unclog toilets, install cabinets and work on kitchen equipment such as deep friers and grease cleaners.

Most of your coworkers, the staff at the various stores, don't understand your job.  You may meet with some stiff disrespect if you have to order a part and their store is without ac for a few days while it comes in.

You must be professional and passionate about your job. 

The hardest part of the job is working for several hours in the heat in either attics or rooftops.  

The most enjoyable part of the job is the traveling and getting to meet so many people along with being able to challenge yourself mentally with the varied and interesting faults you encounter.

A typical work day would be I go in and I set up the schedule for the service clerks on which hour each person goes outside to retrieve carts, I then schedule and assign each cashier to a register, I assist customers when they have questions or where something is located in the store, I supervise the front end by helping cashiers when they have a problem at the register in regards to a price check, rain checks for the customer or if they need anything because the customer has asked, I also help the cashiers with assisting in bagging customers orders, make sure each service clerk or cashier gets there break. 

I have learned a great deal in providing exceptional customer service and how I can accommodate a customer to assure they are happy with their experience while shopping in the store. 

Management is okay and most of my co-workers are excellent to work with they will listen and do what I have asked them to do and they usually will always keep themselves busy during down time by restocking registers with receipt paper, flyers and bags.

The hardest part of this job is probably the rare occasion get a rude customer and no matter what or how you try to accommodate them to make them happy they just don't care and still will be unhappy towards you but, still have to wish them a good day and try the best you can to keep a smile on your face.

Most enjoyable is when you do well managers will take notice and compliment you.

While working at Shop Rite of Bristol, the things I've come to learn from staff there would be sportsmanship and how everyone works together and communicate very well. Also, working here helped me gain better social skills by interacting with customers day-to-day. Coming into the job permanently I was hired as Cashier/Bagger, yet have had no cash register experiences working there. Every day I would come in and go straight to bagging at the lane I was put in and carried on bagging the rest of my shift. Bagging did eventually cause back pains by standing in one place all day at hours at a time, although, every once in a while I would get a chance away from bagging to go return items that customers did not want and put them back on shelves.. I wouldn't say there was really a hard part about working at Shop Rite but if I had to pick it would be returning the items because I did not know where most items were placed, then again it was also a help because it helped me get to know the store better so I can help customers if needed. It was just time consuming. The managers there were friendly and handled store situations well. It was always easy to ask questions and get help. Breaks were unpaid and 15 minutes and honestly seemed short. It was like by the time I bought my lunch/snack, break was more than halfway over. Hours there for me were terrible, I worked 1-2 days a week(sometimes 3) and checks were very low because of that. Most of the time under $40 a week.

I would normally work the 5 to Midnight Shifts. I was a cashier. I would either check out a tray unless their was a tray in the register I was assigned to. I would clean the belt and scanner and register before having a customer would go to my register. before checking a customers items I would asked them if they had a Shop Rite Price Plus Card or any coupons. I would check out around 100 to 300 customers a day. I also handled cash, credit cards, checks, government checks, and coupons. I would offer the sale item of the month to the customer after ringing up the items. I then would tell them the amount they owned and then asked them if they would like paper or plastic or double bags or stickers on their items. After they paid for their items I would tell them how much money they saved with their price plus card. then I would say have a great day or evening. after I checked out all the customers I would walk around the register to make sure my candy rack and magazine rack was nice and neat. along with no garbage on the floor or around the register. Also I would change the recite paper and coupon paper when needed. I also restocked all the registers bags and recite and coupons rolls. I would empty each garbage can and the draws to keep everything nice and neat along with running affiant.

A typical day of work would consist of me coming in asking my boss of what needed to be done. Whether it was to hold the counter and take care of customers or a couple various jobs which include; Stocking the shelves, and cutting wrapping and tagging the specialty cheeses. Some of my co workers are a little sluggish and not effective as the rest of my team. My manager of my deli does an outstanding job and we are an effective team with whatever we need to get done which is the most enjoyable part of my day besides working with some of the other co workers who put the effectiveness. The hardest part of the day is when all the morning people go home and leave only a person or two with myself during the after work rush special as I call it. That is when everyone is coming home from work and then the line starts to build up especially when my assistant manager starts to talk to other departments when me and the other co workers are running up and down the counter to help people get in and out as fast as possible. At that point someone will have to take a break because there is no schedule for the breaks but I have learned to manage on how to send people and keep certain people with me so things are done fast and effective.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I like to receive gifts  and certificates when I had competed the tasks for the whole month as a front end Cashier and get more hours for the position. I like to get rewards and a raise for doing hard work and being an outstanding cashier. They gave us pizza party or dinner on special holidays.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part is that, there are allots of customers, and I am constantly ringing for the whole day. We are understaff, sometimes many cashier called out sick.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The store looks clean and the customers were friendly. Some co-workers were friendly and helpful to me. Some bosses are friendly and helpful when I asked for help.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
At the mid-afternoon I am very busy and constantly putting away returns. Two hours before I am going home the work, it begins to slow down. I get a chance to relax a little bit. Friday and Saturday are the most busy days for me. That is when the most customers coming to shop at Shop Rite on route 211.

A typical day at work would include a positive attitude at all times, properly assessing patients at the drop off counter, and assisting the Pharmacist in typing and filling prescriptions. I learned how to become a healthcare professional while working alongside many different types of Pharmacists and employees, also how to adjust to many types of patients to make their needs feel as satisfied as possible. My co-workers at ShopRite have always helped encourage me to do my best, and treated each other respectfully as a team. The hardest part of the job was balancing time between school, and adjusting work flow to how a particular pharmacist preferred to work,  ultimately, ShopRite generated an easy workflow. The most enjoyable part of being a pharmacy technician would have to be working with such friendly co-workers, and having a personable relationship with patients. It made me feel great that my patients were able to trust me and contact me in their times of need.

I formerly worked at Carteret Shop Rite for 33 years, resigning in December of 2012. I started off in the produce department, moved with the store to a new location and was a cashier for a short time. It wasn’t long before I started in the Grocery Department. My job functions included ordering, packing out and any other job requirement of that department. I often worked in other departments helping out wherever I was needed.
My last 14 years at Shop Rite I worked in the Scanning Department. My job functions were payroll, making/hanging signs and labels. When the big box of labels came in on Thursdays I was in charge of checking in, separating and breaking down these labels in department/aisle order. Also the labels that came in on Friday and Saturday. Plus many functions on the computers and telxons, daily. When my immediate supervisor was off, on vacation or extended medical leave I was in charge and ran the department of 3 excluding her. Together we were a department of 4. In all my time at Shop Rite I came in contact and helped customers on a daily basis.
