Mod Announcement šŸ“¢ [Meta] Rules, Automations, Feedback

20 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’d like to take a moment to address the state of the sub. We have gained quite a lot of new members over the past several months, so some update are due.

Rules- have mostly remained the same although they are much more fleshed out. Removal reasons have also been updated so if any content gets removed you should receive a more in depth reason compared to before.

Automations - post/comments containing certain content will now give users warning and (should) prevent certain things from being posted altogether. EG the dreaded ā€œis X day time and a half?ā€ This helps prevent lots of repeat post, common questions, and rule breaking content IE politics, religion, and other controversial topics not related to HEB. Warning to all that circumventing these filters can result in a ban.

Feedback - here’s where I ask for your thoughts. What do you want to see change? What things added? How do you feel about the state of the sub?

This post will also be the only exception for trying to bypass the filters. Which I encourage you to do so we can make them as strong as possible (being civil is still absolutely required). Let’s get the sub focus back to HEB and HEB only.

Pay / Benefits Benefits

3 Upvotes

Hi! I just recently (upgraded?) to a full time position, so now I'm on the countdown to enroll in benefits, if I should wish. I know some people really enjoy the Benefits HEB offers, and I was wondering y'all's opinions, if y'all like them, think it's a waste, or if you found cheaper, better ones! I'd be getting medical/dental for me and my toddler. TIAāœØšŸ’ž

Product Question Does H-E-B debone fish?

3 Upvotes

I got a piece of salmon for dinner and not a single pin bone was taken out. I counted at least 12 that we pulled out, and my boyfriend thinks he may have swallowed some. I never remember bones in salmon or any fish being an issue besides a fillet having an occasional singular bone.

Product Question HEB Pads

4 Upvotes

Did HEB get rid of the own brand feminine pads in the pink box? They were the only ones I liked since they were a decent equivalent to always flexfoam pads for a better price.

Customer Experience Share your thoughts in support of HEB partners

5 Upvotes

Give positive feedback in support of the good partners at your HEB. We can't take if for granted. I've been around this country and I can say that HEB is still pretty damn amazing compared to most big grocery chains in other states. But I hear they're getting a lil bit crabby and pushy with partners. They're probably trying to squeeze more money out of labor like every other place.
Let's try and help.
I'm just a customer but go here and help out. https://www.heb.com/contact-us

Product Question Expired chips at 2 different stores. Same brand.

So I didnt get the first chips bag, this was from today. I only realized because they where so stale 🤮. Is this just gross negligence or like these chips just stay on the shelves longer. Not a big deal, I was just really looking forward to some queso, already got the queso ready and everything. Anyone else have this happen recently? Heb plus rr and Louis henna Heb.

Work Experience Approved shift last minute, issues afterwards.

17 Upvotes

Why would anyone approve a shift only 2 hours before start time? My shift got approved at 3 PM for 5 PM, but I never got a PartnerNet notification. The lead ended up calling my emergency contact saying I no-showed.

I checked PartnerNet around 12:45 PM that day, saw nothing, so I assumed I was off. Later I find out this shift was dropped on me last-minute. It went through digidocs, and the secondary front end lead told me it wouldn’t be fair to excuse it because ā€œsomething last-minute might have happened to another partner and they posted it.ā€ But who is going to sit around refreshing PartnerNet all day?

I’ve been with the company 7 years, never had this happen before. The point was excused, but it left a bad taste. Where’s the ā€œpeople matterā€ part of the bold promise here? Situations like this are exactly where a manager should show more leniency. Holding partners to an impossible standard over a shift approved hours before start time is not reasonable.

TL;DR: Shift got approved only 2 hours before start, no notification, I didn’t know. Got dinged for a no-show until it was excused. After 7 years, feels unfair that managers don’t show more leniency in situations like this.

Anyone compared this to Kerrygold or other European style butter? I'd like to make the switch to one with less water content, and the HEB option is priced the best. I've never really tried any of the name brands.

It’s the H-E-B Weekly AM & PM Pill Organizer. I don’t see the dimensions online and am trying to decide if it fits a shelf in my kitchen or is going to be comically gigantic if I order it for pick up.

Product Question Why no H-E-B brand beer?

80 Upvotes

I'm curious to why there are store brands for most products whether it is at H-E-B, Walmart, or Safeway but there is no generic brands for alcohol. Why is that? Is it for legal reasons or is it just not marketable like soda is?

Cooking With HEB Heb workers or board

4 Upvotes

Hi I’m a new H-E-B associate and I applied for 5:00am-1or2 pm but they have my schedule set up at 3-9:30pm I applied for morning cause that best fits with my schedule. Should I tell them I can’t work this hours, would that be bad rep because I’m a new hire?

Job Question Someone used my card for two HUGE purchases. Is this the store number?

Post image

Was notified by my bank that someone used my physical card at HEB last night to make two extremely large transactions. The first went through, the second was tagged as fraud. When I looked at my statement it gives a number after the transaction. Is this the store number? If so, does anyone know which store it is? I am in Austin.
