Thanks, yes I am responsible for my depts. delivery - I restock from this each shift. However when I and my colleague had extra hours we took on responsibility for working back-stock (that's the stock you can't get on the shelves because they are full, so it gets stored back store until there is space). Now the hours have gone the back-stock is piling up and going out of date sometimes. We really only have time for delivery that day.
If we have a spare moment and we spot something we try to get it out asap but we don't have time for the sheer amount of back-stock. I did ask my supervisor how they would deal with the back-stock and he said they would deal with it - they have had hours cut too and tbh they probably don't have the time (& I suspect motivation).
Yes you are right it is not ultimately my responsibility, this is what my husband said too. I do have a habit of taking the worries of the world on.
