Sorry for the long post but I would appreciate help and advice, Really.
Hey guys, so I just had my first shift at Sports Direct on Wednesday and it went...meh. I thought I would be put on tills since I'm a girl and I heard that girls usually get put on tills, but I'm on footwear because they're short of footwear staff. Anyway, the training was like 15 minutes and it wasn't really training, just going through some general things like using the radio, tagging, making sure displays are presentable. Then I was kind of left to it, and it was fairly busy and whenever a customer asked for a shoe, every single time I had to ask one of my other colleagues to get it for me because obviously, I didn't know where the shoe was located in the stock room and when I did try and find them a couple of times, I just completely failed. And I guess I'm worried because a) I was scared that I was annoying my colleagues by constantly asking them for shoes, especially when they had their own customer to serve and b) I am also worried that I'll never learn, or that it will take me ages to learn where all the shoes are kept in the stock room. Like seriously, is there an easy way to know, or is it just a matter of taking time to go to the stock room when its not busy and trying to memorise locations from there? Plus the stock room is the most cramped and hazardous thing which makes it more difficult. My second shift's sunday 1-5 and I know it's going to be really busy. I am so dreading it and part of me is thinking, if this shifts terrible then I just want to quit. But I need the money and I really don't wanna be a quitter. Advice anyone? As someone who suffers badly from anxiety, I'm just not sure if this job is for me or not.
