Accepted Answer

POURED does not provide reimbursement for parking costs incurred during a shift. Some brands may choose to validate parking but they are by no means obligated. Most store locations have free or very cheap street parking options in the area that you may utilize. Avoid parking in the store parking garages as this will be quite expensive if the brand does not validate parking.

What should I do when I arrive at a shift?

Accepted Answer

When you arrive for a shift, after you’ve clocked in, immediately approach the store manager. Ask the question, “What can I do to be the most helpful today?” This is a great way to meet the manager, break the ice and start your shift on the right foot! You can’t go wrong with that question!

If you do have to cancel, please contact the brand and the POURED team to let everyone know. You can then cancel your shift in the app. Please be aware that if you cancel a shift within less than 24 hours more than 3 times, your placement on the POURED platform will be reviewed and possibly terminated.

How do I accept a shift offer or know if I've been selected?

Accepted Answer

Shift requests will appear in your offers page. Roster and Community booking requests are interest based. You may indicate your interest or decline the offer. You will not be confirmed for the shift until a manager selects you and approves your interest. You will receive and email, text, and app notification upon selection confirming the details of your shift. Only for Direct bookings are you pre-approved by the manager and can accept the offer to be instantly confirmed for the shift.

Please make sure to update offers you have indicated interest in should your availability change for that day. You can do this by finding the same shift under the offers tab and tapping Remove Interest.

Note: Offers marked as high demand have the greatest chance of being selected for as there is a greater need for coverage.
