Out-of-Stock

Out-of-Stock

adj. A temporary condition where the SHELF is empty and there's no more of that particular ITEM in the BACK ROOM: “Sorry—we're out of stock.” See RAIN CHECK.

NOTE: For any SALE ITEMS that are Out-of-Stock, CUSTOMERS should be encouraged to get a RAIN CHECK from the CUSTOMER SERVICE DESK at the front of the STORE. The GROCERY MANAGER may know more about why an ITEM is Out-Of-Stock, as well as if and when more might come in. Ask.

Look for Temporarily Out of Stock tags on a clipboard beside the GROCERY MANAGER'S desk. To reduce the number of times you may have to go over the same information with different CUSTOMERS, fill out a Temporarily O.O.S. Tag for the SHELF and put it in the HOLE.
