WisdomRL pretty sure it is. I am an ASM at a DG and most of the time I have to check in these vendors but that’s it they stock their coolers and displays.
I'm 19 and I'm currently the grocery department head at Kroger Central in Terre Haute, IN. My crew tends to stock our trademarked brands and many other brands as well. But these merchandisers (we call them vendors) stock their respective products on our shelves. Just like this Coke Vendor, he will stock and replenish all Coca Cola products in the store. But a lot of our vendors are much less motivated and productive. They destroy and take up most of our back room where we unload the trucks. They almost never fill coolers or displays with their products. They tend to use up our skyshelves (where we put extra items that are full on the shelves). And they are more-often-than-not rude and ignorant in their work ethic. So major kudos to this guy. We need more merchandisers like him everywhere!
I don't know where you live.. But the opposite seems to happen at the stores I work at.. Store employees talking more than working, they take down vendor displays with little or no notice, they make unrealistic demands last minute with no prior communication.
Bro I used to work at a gas station that got deliveries like these. The stuff he's doing at 3:36 is honestly what the gas station/convenience store employee should be doing.
The reason that he’s stocking the shelves is because he’s a merchandiser. The store employees stock some items, but some vendors stock and rotate their own items. I used to work at a grocery store and we had some vendors that would deliver and stock their products.
wow,,, having to stock all the coolers is horrible. these stores are taking advantage of you giving all this free labor. they have workers, they should stock their own shelves and coolers
@@james11h As somebody doing the same job he is, I care. It would be so much nicer if the people working at the stores were the ones to stock their own coolers. Just because we get paid hourly doesn't mean I want to spend 12-14 hours a day out doing it.

I remember watching this video like a year ago when TH-cam first recommended it to me. I guess the algorithm brought us all back.
I think it's a bit crazy how the Driver has to stock as well. That's the part i wouldn't like at all. The people working at the Gas Station should be responsible for stocking what they've ordered.
The job wouldn't be so bad if the store staff actually stocked their own shelves. I'm not about to kill my back and feet...I got my CDL to drive not unload and stock shelves!
I thought the same thing. I always see the employees of the station stocking it, but someone else in a different comment mentioned he's a driver merch. So he does both and gets paid a bit more than just a driver who delivers.
israel pinto lmao dude this is the easiest job . I’m pretty sure he gets payed decent just to stock. Shit ima over here climbing 80 feet towers and were probably getting paid the same
go into a walmart or target or kroger in the early morning i mean like 6 am and many times you will see people stoking shelves that are not in the stores uniform. they are the vendors for the companies. like coke and pepsi, and frito-lay and mike sells. all the bread guys ect. they bring the product in, stock the shelves and put what wont fit up as backstock. then they write an order based on how much backstock they have and the stores sales volume for the next delivery, many times the next day. I worked for frito for a few months and i promise the jobs are much harder than these videos make them seem. and many times with long hours. also the part he kind of skips over in this video is just getting into receiving. I've stood out in the pouring rain for 30 minutes at 4 am to get into a walmart before. product in boxes getting soaked while i wait. there are certainly route you can get that are easier and days that just go well, but guys with senoirity take them and for every nice day theres usually many bad ones. lol the job gave me more stress than i cared for so i left. more power to this guy he's happy as shit lol.
In Australia, drivers only deliver the stock. It's the job of the store employees to keep the coolers stocked. It's not the drivers job to do the stocking.
I like how you are very positive and enthusiastic. I've seen a few different vendor drivers coming into our backroom and they all have that blank facial expression and are quiet with everyone. You however seem like a genuine driver who loves what he does. I respect that. :)
In the stores where u just drop it, there are workers who workes for the Coca Cola to travel around the markets and stock it. Or the company pays the store to do it.
1. Deal with the stress of driving 2. unloading/loading 3. rotate stock in store 4. customer service 5. Working in the elements I'm sure this is easily 14-16 hour work days.
I delivered for Budweiser in San Francisco for 10 years and also did 7up for 6 years. I’m now a garbage man and love what I do. Big ups to all beverage delivery drivers 👍🏽🤙🏽🙏🏽
@@duckbrew I average 40-50 n hour for straight time. But only thing bad pay wise is I don't work much ot at all but I love it. I would rather have the free time.
Anyone who says this job is easy has never had a RD pallet of 12packs fall over, roll everywhere, or have full pallets fall over in those HOT trailers during a 15hr day and it shows
Iron Razor Yeah unless you have a high traffic route with little to no parking and most of the stops wanted it all in the basement. Gotta love the bar/restaurant areas. I eventually went to line haul
Hey Hi there. I did that in McAllen Texas. My delivery was big grocery stores only, now it’s done differently. The position was called Bulk Driver. We started delivering at 4am every morning 6 days out of the week. Sunday was my off day. I worked for 20 years till I hurt my back during a stop at Walmart. I eventually went through 2 surgeries and couldn’t return back to work. Loved my job and had great benefits.
I worked a while at circle k and the fact that you stock up the drinks yourself gets some mad respect from me. I've never seen a single delivery guy do that for drinks
It is pretty rich that the companies do all the merchandising on top of delivery. You would think that if this were the case, we’d be charging extra for the product given the labor that goes into stocking it. Maybe then the driver-merchandisers would get paid more.
Bullshit job and pay, I’m a delivery driver for coke in Ottawa. 14 years this coming June, too many overpaid managers in this company. That’s why we make peanuts, for wages. And because we’re union managements treats us like shit. GPS in the trucks, treat us like a bunch of fkn kids, they act like the own the company. Poorly ran company. Rant is over. Think I’m gonna make the switch and head over to GFS.
For all the people thinking you can do half the effort / work and keep all the pay, you'll get less far in life than this guy. Take pride in the work you do and don't expect others to do your work for you. If you just left the products in the isles and didn't take pride in your work, people would notice and people would report that info back to your bosses. You'd find yourself either dead ended with less pay or fired ("let go") within 6 months. Where as this guy, This guy has a future in the company, Possible marketing opportunities, brand deals, public facing operations. The options are endless. Long story short, Show respect Get respect.
I lasted 8 months with Coca Cola the company made the job harder than it needed to be when they took the cool lifts away. That gave me the push I needed to get the rest of my endorsements now I deliver fuel.
@@danielfuentes7979 cause those that don’t do the work are making all the decisions. And now most of them have retired or went on to other positions within the company
Is it really your job to fill up the shelfs and rotate the drinks? I'm pretty sure that is what the employes of the store has to do. Nice of you for doing it, I just don't see it as a part of your job, but you probably know it best.
It's pretty common for companies like this (Coke, Pepsi, Lays, etc) to do the merchandising as well. I worked for Old Dutch chips and we had to stock the shelves because convenience/grocery store employees are usually kids on minimum wage who couldnt give 2 fucks about how the shelves look, so we did it ourselves to ensure product is rotated and sold before expiry (big retailers will have deals where the suppliers picks expired product up and refunds them for it).
man i wish the coke drivers at my servo station stocked the chiller for me they just slam the whole order in the chiller and it takes me like 2 hours to sort it ahaha

It’s good to see people that show pride in their work, it makes liking your job a lot easier. I hope to find a job I can find pride in
My dad once told me there is honor in all work =)

Good to see someone actually enjoying their job almost everyone I’ve seen doesn’t like their job
i will see all of you when this gets recommended again.
this guy really enjoys his job, like too see him happy
The fact that you replace all cokes and other drinks in their respected places for the store is an extra mile not many people go to, I respect that.

the gas station I worked at we where supposed to stock when it was slow and I had someone else working with me I would help the driver out sometimes
at my coke we just started a small store merchandiser position so the driver doesn't have to do it.
It’s cool how he really enjoys his job and life in general. He seems really wholesome. God bless him
1:06 the enemy has arrived in the back
Good eye! 😂
Merching was the worst part of this job! Especially for Walgreens, CVS, and gas stations. THEIR employees should be the ones stocking their own shit!
Just want this guy to know that I appreciate him so much
It’s nice to see someone who enjoys their job, what a genuine dude 👍
Either this guys too happy or he gets paid REALLY well
Playur Truck drivers get paid REALLY well. Having a CDL has its perks.

In Australia, drivers only deliver the stock. It's the job of the store employees to keep the coolers stocked. It's not the drivers job to do the stocking.
so?
bet you guys have less turnover too. Probably a coincidence.

I love your attention to detail with facing the drinks outward with the logo & having cold drinks on right side!

Fanta is made by Coke
PJ is in the south where everything is called "coke".
"Let's go deliver some Coke today."
Delivers crates full of Fanta.
when you realize that coke owns all these other soft drinks that you never knew thought were owned by coke because you are used to just seeing coke
Icecube88 exactly.. I worked for budweiser and was blown away at all the different brands.. we even sold red bull
very interesting that you stock the service station shelves. Here in Australia we just drop the pallets off and away we go
Same for me, just drop it where they want and go.
Usually they drop the pallets and u stock it urself .
same in norway
In the stores where u just drop it, there are workers who workes for the Coca Cola to travel around the markets and stock it. Or the company pays the store to do it.
@@misalekmark1 company doesn't pay a store to stock bottles lmao

Don't know if I would work for coca cola but I enjoy the Gospel

Thank you for the video PJ. You take extreme pride in what you do contributing to society.
U gotta STOCK that Product TOO. OH HELL no. Why can’t stores put up they own stuff lol. When I take it in the store THATs a courtesy in itself lol

GFS running of the back of those ramps ? That sucks
why dont the employees do the new stock
im pretty sure its a contract thing, like they can but not supposed to deal. I could be wrong though
depends on the contract.
Coke does it a lot of times because the store workers suck at doing it and it becomes an unorganized mess.
They called in sick Lol
I would hire this guy in a heartbeat. Good attitude, hard worker, does the job correctly.
If he wasn’t paid off to do this, which is extremely unlikely, he’s still a corporate bootlicker.
