I don't know if I'm the only one that's experience these but there have been at least 5 different occasions in the past few years I've heard that a big corporate guy is coming to our store/location.
So of course we all bust our asses to get the place looking neat and tidy and brush up on all the stuff corporate requires us to do but that we don't do most of time and so forth.
And then the big day comes...and nobody shows up.
Once, a guy did show up...a week later, the other times no one ever did and it was never spoken of again.
Sometimes I wonder if the "corporate visit" threat is just something they use when they think the store is too dirty or we're not working hard enough or something.
Still thought, it sucks to do all that work for nothing.
