Should we just rename this thread:
"Coke. We love you, we hate you, why are you so bloody explosive?"

Since we are on the subject of Coke. All the retail workers on this forum will know this already but to those who don't here goes.
NEVER and I repeat NEVER, take Coke or any other soft drink from an end of an aisle in a supermarket, if they are stacked up on top of each other without wire shelving between the bottles. The stores do a thing they call 'face-up' which means the workers 'turn' the bottles so that the labels all face the front (customers). Slightly turning these bottles, slowly 'de-gasses' the drinks.  :

Ok yes you're right about faceup (pointless task cos customers bugger it all up again anyway), the ends it doesnt matter, just means its cheaper than normal (or we have too much of it),but turning the bottles round - i have no idea how that could possibly degas it?
Also, any decent supermarket wont just stack drinks or anything else one on top of the other. Would you believe it - OH&S again. If something falls off (which it easily can if theyre stacked that way) and someone trips on it or it busts open and makes the floor slippery - we are in deep sh!t. Ive had to reprimand god knows how many team members (and i dont like doing it) because of that very thing.

Yeah if it's on an end, then we're usually trying to push the customers into buying it.
The other thing is that you should never take a bottle from the middle of a display. If it's all stacked on top of each other pulling from the middle isn't a good idea. I hate facing up (apart from the fact it's not my job), and today while putting up the weeks specials I had a customer come up to me with a ticket I had placed up only an hour earlier asking if we had 30 bottles of the product.  out:  : I spend all day, everyday putting tickets up. DON'T pull them down!!!
