I already replied but I wanted to add that you're very lucky to have a friend
at TRU. I have a love-hate relationship with them. They're really the only
game in town, but the employees and managers are just terrible. Example- when
will you be getting X in? "We don't know, we have a truck in now but it's not
unloaded yet." "We DON'T have a computer to check" "We can't find out if its
at the warehouse" translation- We actually CAN do all of these things but
we're not going to.

can you imagine being a manager of a store, getting a truckload of
merchandise, and NOT having a list to tell you what's on the truck? I wish I
was the driver for THAT store (and dishonest enough). I could stop, unload
what I wanted, and no one would know!


They have actually told me that they cannot check the warehouse. Either they
are lying, or your friend is a miracle worker.

Oh, well- just venting.

Actually, they are telling the truth. As sad as that is... I worked at TRU for a couple of Christmas' back in 1990 and 1991. All of the inventory routing and control is done at the distribution center. The folks at the stores are basically blind. (...) (25 years ago, 21-Nov-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.shopping)
