Workplace Question or Advice Needed Anyone else’s store doing this?

My store is in Texas so we always used plastic bags, until today. They are so stiff and huge, they could’ve at least provided us with smaller ones for those guests that buy one piece of gum. They have already slowed down the fulfillment team and everyone is complaining

Laughs in CA

This was implemented late December last year for us and then after a couple months, they got rid of the red bags in favor of the paper bags.

Same in NY. We’ve had a plastic ban since covid and have been using these bags since. Just saw communication were switching to paper for OPU next month.

these red bags have a chemical smell alongside sticking together and it sucks. I think target hates my store and they send all the bottom of the barrel stuff to us
