I'm the Nutrition (organics) manager at a grocery store.
While my day is different depending on the day of the week, this is typical:
Wake up at 5. Fall back to sleep until 5:30. Get up, shower, eat, and get to work by 6:15...which is 15 minutes late. I have an understanding boss.
6:15-9:00 - Straighten the shelves in the drug/hba (health and beauty aids) and organics sections. People manage to make a real mess of grocery shelves. Straighten checkstand candy as well. If it is Monday or Friday, I stock the shelves while straightening...it takes the same amount of time.
9:00-9:15 - Take a break. Eat a bagel.
9:15-11:00 - Make new tags for the ones that have mysteriously disappeared throughout the week; make signs for displays.
11:00-12:00 - Put away items that customers have decided they didn't want and just put down wherever they felt like.
12-12:15 - Another break. Eat a lunabar.
12:15 - 1:00 - Audit my sections and make sure that prices are coming up correctly, and fix if not.
1:00 - 1:30 - Paperwork. Yuck.
1:30 - 2:15 - Ask my boss if there is anything that he'd like me to do because what I needed to get done is done. Finish assigned tasks; gab with fellow coworkers about how the store has really gone in the toilet since our last management change. Generally slack off.
2:15 - I'm outta there!!
