I could write a novel about my year at Sam's. But I think I'll just post some pics as proof for now.
For anyone wondering I told people. Lots of people. "Important" people.
My orientation is tomorrow from
9-5 will be there the whole day? Or just few hours both days?
One of my coworkers is getting ready to leave the 4:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. shift, and I let management know that I’d be interested in taking it. I’ve already worked that shift twice, and honestly, it wasn’t bad at all. Now I’m scheduled for that shift every day next week, and it may even become my permanent schedule if I end up swapping shifts with my coworker.
For those of you who currently work—or have worked—the 4:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. shift in Club Pickup (CPU), how long did you work it, and what was your experience? What did you like or dislike about it?
i still eat the heck out of it but i swear it gets thinner every week.
Been applying for a year straight. All positions. No points. Have gone in person several times, and even at times have had managers say they would contact me. They never do. I go again, and rinse and repeat.
Then I went to try a different Sam's Club, and management there straight up told me they avoid hiring Wal-mart associates...
Do I keep trying then? Because I want the better pay but I'm starting to get sick of how long this taking.
If say I'm doing errands at the end of a long day and realize my battery is near dead am I SOL for shopping at Sam's? Or are you allowed to shop there without an app? I have no card so I don't get it.
I often pass by on the way back from a relatives where I'm usually not charging for a long stretch and the sams is only a 2 min drive from their house.
Have had a Sam’s membership forever , last year signed up for BJs - as it was really free and so why not (after coupons) since then have got a bunch of stuff cheaper there than at Sams - and now thinking did I really miss this ?
Examples
Splenda 18 at Sams BJs 18-4 , purchased already thrice
Mach 3 blades -40$ in sams - BJs -30$ ( just got it today )
dove soap - only sams Cash offer - BJs - less 3$ , already got twice
Organic carrots - also less expensive in Bjs
Bjs TP is actually decent . What gives ? I always thought sams was best - but no longer ..
Anyone else in their bakery departments getting told that we're not allowed to take orders for members in store?
My team lead recently scolded us for helping members with orders, so now we're not allowed to take them. Just wondering if anyone else has been dealing with that. Or with having 5 decorators and only allowing maybe 50 orders per day.
Some background: I'm waiting for my orientation, and I forgot to mention that I'll be going to school. My sister also works at Sam's Club, and we go to the same university. since we share a car, we'd like to start and get off work at the same time.
I have a few questions:
What are the typical shift times for the gas station attendant position?
Based on your knowledge, would it be likely that I could work 5:00 PM–9:00 PM on weekdays and have more open availability on weekends?
3.Would it be possible to update my availability during orientation for the fall?
can someone explain how onepay works? do you have to bank with onepay to get paid early and get a portion of your check? i’ve always struggled getting a portion of my check early going to my bank. the app doesn’t explain very well lol
I work Freight Flow and sometimes I find products someone decided they didn't want anymore in the strangest places. I got a chuckle out if it at least! Pretty sure that wasn't what they meant by tangy rice!
Purchased membership yesterday and get this everytime I try to get my digital card set up
So I’ve noticed this trend over the last few years that Sam’s releases a product I like, and eventually stop carrying it in the store for the name brand. In case people hadn’t seen, Fairlife Protein Shake (Vanilla) was recently added to stores. And it appears my location stopped carrying the Member’s Mark Vanilla Milkshake. Price wise it’s almost an $8 difference.
I’ve seen this previously with Member’s Mark products being discontinued for a period of time for items like Clorox disinfectant wipes, Dude Wipes, Chobani Yogurt. Eventually they revert back but it’s frustrating to have to order it online to get the items I want.
Curious if this is true but I was told that if you transfer to another department or role that makes less than what you make and is also a lateral move that you get a 10% increase in pay. If so what’s stopping people from transferring from role to role to get that 10% over and over?
Have to be to work in less than an hour but I’m not feeling good. Did way too much last night😂 anyway I’m at 4 points and one was supposed to fall off today but hasn’t yet. Should I risk calling off now? I’m just paranoid that if I call off it magically wont fall off.
I’ve been a Costco member for years and I got a deal for a cheap membership at SC. What are some items I should give a try? What are the best deals? What do you recommend for us to get the Sam’s Club experience?
Edit: thank you all for the suggestions! I activated scan and go on my app!
Any advice? Do you enjoy your job? Pros and cons? I’m part time - but they said I’d become full time within 30 days. Are the benefits good? I hear mixed reviews about working. Thankful for the job and the chance for income again but just curious what’s everyone experience has been!
I applied to be a cafe associate for my local club. I understand if they drug test for positions requiring use of heavy equipment, but for working in the cafe, it seems a bit much. Is this true? Thanks!
