Hilton

Being a SM is hard sometimes. There's so much talking and people keep wanting a piece of you. The overwhelming urge is to tell people to look up the information themselves, but people ... don't. You have to be the mouthpiece for the company.

This past week I've been taking care of the Hilton because the usual SM is on Jury Duty. First day was a challenge in a new store, but as I've been there more and more, the 'hidden' challenges seem to come up.

The thing that's kinda... smacking me in the face a bit is keeping a weekly plan, but actually sticking to it, and using my flex time more wisely than, say, covering the floor. I have an agenda, which I used a lot for promo stuff, but promo stuff is only one piece of the puzzle. 

What I'm looking for is maybe more of a 'holistic' approach - leadership activity, administrative work, cleanliness, promos, planning, business analysis... all of these are part and parcel of what an SM does every single day. Plus serve customers.
