Changing availability..?

I recently got hired as a produce stocker, and my orientation is tomorrow. During the interview, I listed my availability as “open” because I was desperate to secure the job. However, I also work another job where I don’t get many hours, and I’m trying to balance both. I just received my schedule (at my other job) and have two shifts next week. It’s been like this for the last few weeks, and before applying at Walmart I figured my availability would open up more once school slowed down for the summer, but the hours there still haven’t really improved. One of the shifts next week is only a short closing shift, which I honestly wouldn’t mind working around if possible. The job posting I applied to said 5/6am starts, and the closing shift is a measly 4hr shift. The only concern is another shift that may conflict more. Would it be a bad look to ask for one specific day off or a small availability adjustment this early on, or is that generally reasonable? I don't want to jeopardize my standing this early on and before my other job, I've been unemployed for the last 2 years. I'm also still in school so I'm just trying to stack up over the summer break.

Can anyone explain why a single Walmart in my city will randomly mark down games that are brand new? Did someone make their decision or does a stock system just spit out the price without anyone choosing it?

This game JUST came out in March so idk why it's half off..

There are three Walmart's in my city their game prices are always random af.

This price was only at one location.

Can anyone explain why this happens?

Walmart customer service is actually unbelievable

I never stole anything in my life but today at Walmart I asked a guy working in frozen if they had an item in the back because I couldn’t find it on the shelf. He went to check and never came back for like 15–20 mins. Then I asked another employee and he also went inside and disappeared. So I went in myself and found the first guy just working like nobody was waiting outside for an answer. I asked him if he found it and he just said “we’re out of stock.” That literally would’ve taken 10 seconds to come out and tell me instead of wasting my time for 20 mins. I had another item I was planning to buy but after that I just walked out with it without paying.

Had my interview today...

Hey so I just got back from my interview at Walmart, and the assistant manager that interviewed me she at the end asked if I had any questions, I was nervous because I really wanted the job, and I causally asked her if I did well and she said (laughably) oh I can't tell you

I did work in that location a few years ago, and told her I had experience in all department's

so I don't know, I keep thinking I messed up and she doesn't want to hire me after that?

Help regarding employment

I got hired recently as omni associate and attended my orientation day. I watched all the intro vids with the people manager and then did my cbls. I finished all of them the day of and even got to shadow omni people for the last hour or so. The people manager said to contact the assistant manager afterwards for my next shift, since im not on schedule but mentioned that they are on vacation now. I messaged the manager and got no response. Its been a few days, should I contact the store or wait till they reach out?

Can they fire me if I don’t sell the mastercards?

Idk the correct term but I feel icky at the idea of pushing credit cards on customers. They come here to shop, not to be harassed about credit cards. 😭 I‘m a cashier and I never try to get any customer to sign up for it. Management is on my butt every day about doing whatever I can to get them to sign but I just don’t feel right doing that to people. Just wondering are they able to fire me if I don’t get any sign ups?

Is this normal

I’m new to Walmart and this department I’m in kept telling me how short staffed they are and saying the boss is frustrated because people won’t show up for shifts so I’m assuming that’s gonna give me steady hours, just checked my schedule and I have 11 hours this upcoming week and 8 hours the next spread over 2 days, is it because I’m new or should I search for something that will be a bit more reasonable?

Second Interview tips and advice - applying for as ASM position

Hey guys,

I recently applied for an assistant manager role (I believe it's now called a coach because of restructuring and rebranding of positions?) I'm an external candidate who used to work with the company.

I had my initial interview with the store manager a week ago today over TEAMS. It looks like the interview went well because during the interview she said she wanted to set up a second interview with the co manager.

Yesterday I emailed her to just say "thank you" for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed and to see if there was any news she could give me about the position. Long story short she said she still wants me to have an interview with the co-manager.

Can anyone provide me any tips or feedback on what to expect during a second interview? The types of questions that are asked etc.

I'd really appreciate it. Feel free to private message me if you're not comfortable posting publicly.

New employee

Hey so im new to Walmart, before I begin I want to add im someone who tries to be happy always and give benefit of the doubt and always try to be positive but this csm/coach really rub me the wrong way how they spoke to me...

Anyways just going to try to keep it as simple as possible. I got this job recently *front end * and i def plan on changing departments once I am allowed to just to get away from this CSM/coach, guessing thats after probation.. anyways I wanted to hear your opinions or advice.. my csm/coach is 3 months in, with her position...she's clearly new and shes on cloud 9 (has a very bad ego and frankly treated me on the first meet like im nothing) let me explain for example.. I am commuting over 2 hrs to this location (planning on moving soon when I can afford to ) and I voiced my concerned that I didnt feel safe commuting at 11pm at night.. as the work is in a sketchy area and same where I live.. *I wouldn't be reaching home in till a Lil after 1:30am*

she then continued to disregard my safety concerns and basically spoke to me as if i had no choice but to do such closing shifts OR ELSE. she also then proceed to say "we goy 10000 applications and we choose you so we expect you to be flexible and have full availability" i also want to add i been trying to find a job for past 2 years so im Soooo greatful that i even was able to find this job *got referred by a friend who works there* (im part time (not by choice, I rather full time) and my availability since I got hired has always been know to be Earliest 9am- 10pm everyday even weekends, which to me seems pretty damn flexible) I simply was asking them to be okay with me going home at 10pm maximum instead of 11 due to my commute and that I dont feel safe AT all. She disregard our conversation I left their office feeling so upset and my mood ruin completely because how she spoke to me. This was my very first ever time i met her and im beyond upset over how she spoke to me and handled this conversation.. (there was other stuff and things she said that was very rude and ignorant) its not that i dont want to work, i actually love night shifts, just i simply am terrified to commute that late at night and i got ptsd from past experiences.. i guess simply want advice if this is usual behavior with csm/coaches? And if I could even report this to anyone about her without gettng myself involved?? Or should I just stick it out till after probatiion and hope i can change departments?

Need expert guidance regarding Walmart WFS reimbursement claims.

Need expert guidance regarding Walmart WFS reimbursement claims.

I’m currently working with Walmart WFS and sourcing products from retailers like Target, Costco, and Amazon. The issue is that many products in my shipment plans are showing as lost or not live for 45+ days.

When I open reimbursement cases with Walmart support, they ask for proof of purchase/invoices. I only have retailer receipts/slips.

My concern is:

- If I submit retailer receipts from stores like Target, Costco, or Amazon, can this cause account suspension or termination?

- If retailer slips are not acceptable, then how can reimbursement payments be claimed for lost inventory?

Would appreciate advice from experienced Walmart sellers or WFS experts who have dealt with similar situations.

Thank you.

Coworkers want me to speak a different language at work

I was recently hired at Walmart as an OMNI Customer Fulfillment Associate. Most of my coworkers are Indian, and they speak Hindi with each other. I was born and raised in Canada and speak English with everyone at work.

Recently, I was told I should speak Urdu after I mentioned to a coworker that my nationality is Canadian and my ethnicity is Pakistani. I’m not fluent in Urdu and don’t feel comfortable speaking it at work.

I think English should be the main language used at work so everyone can communicate clearly and no one is left out.

What do you think?
