The New Guy Part 13

I'm a month into running Pick and Stage and SSD now, 6 months into the role. I'm now working on tightening up my metrics especially on cost and quality. 

SSD is looking better as I get the associates I want staff there and commit to the ones staffed for safety. I'm also focusing on pad safety and on worse case scenarios. 

Pick and Stage is more of a struggle as I try to keep inactive time down, rates up, and not finish too early nor late. I'm learning my associates, getting a supervisor (PA) soon, determining how to correctly determine cost cutting, and I have an experienced manager whom is helping me get there. 

My long term goals haven't changed. I'm now setting daily and weekly goals. 

The New Guy Part 12.

This week saw me experiencing some worst case scenarios, learning more about inner details of sub-same day and starting and conducting ADHOC sorts (crash sorts). I did them at previous sites but my current one is a little different. 

I'm adjusting my day to get a sharper cadence especially now with added admin and more balance. I won't always work 11-12 days and I'm trying to keep those to 10 hours. 

I did get praised for keeping Pick and Stage running well this week and for delivering the most writeups in a week. I delivered so many my laptop crashed if you needed a number. 

It's almost a month overseeing this department and 5 months in the overall role. I want to continue to fill gaps, communicate effectively with all involved and be awesome!
