anyone get the new phones? which ones yall got. I think it’s some google phone. Just curious.

I get it. We offer a service and aim to provide great customer service.

But this person ordered almost 500 items, including around 30 gallons of water and 20+ cases of water. The rest of the items are duplicates mostly, but it’s 3 full dollies and 2 L-carts FULL of groceries.

They ordered it for delivery for an address about 40 minutes away, and it’s freezing here so no idea why they need all this water.

Why the actual hades would someone think this is okay? Oh and around here, Spark delivers, not us, so it’s not like we have a delivery van capable of this. No one who has tried can fit it so we are going to have to ask them to come get it themselves.

Why don’t we have a limit on order sizes?

Just wanting to talking about the unhinged things going on at work. Please feel free to share your stories, I’m interested in seeing what other stores got going on. My 19(M) TL is hooking up with a 37(F) associate that both work in the back room. Rumors of our coach (M) is hooking up with his (M) TL and was seen by an associate that conveniently got fired for “attendance”. (M) coworker won’t give any of the female associates the time of day because he’s married. Said females then started a rumor that the only female that he is friends with (whose husband works the front end and female knows about her husband) are having an affair. 3 female coworkers were super close until one got the position of ATC which doesn’t raise her pay but the power got to her. Now she’s being shunned by the other two, one of which is having the inappropriate relationship with the 19yo. They just ignore each other knowing that if one starts, all 3 will go down. So far that’s what I can remember, I’m sure there’s more.

Since you already need a printer it should just ask you when you find the item: “is this item ambient,chilled or frozen?”

Do yall bag before, while you shop or after you are done with your walk. ** and if you bag after, are you allowed to bag on the sales floor?

Examples:
5+ item GMD orders that are clearly over $35: THIS SHOULD HAVE JUST BEEN DELIVERED
Customer orders some weird shit: ;)
Customer gets an insane amount of shit like 4 cases of 12 count monsters and 10 cans of baby formula:
Are you okay?

What would you guys write on orders?

I am a teenager with social anxiety, I’m not really sure what job to do 🥲

Hey everyone! I’m trying to become faster on my pick walks but am struggling to hit the 100 picks per hour. Is there any tips and tricks for how I can become faster? Thanks in advance!

OK, Canadian associate here. Who else despises the new vizpick system? That is, where all full boxes now do not go above the product on the floor, but to the backroom? And if a part box can fit on the shelf, you stock it and the rest of said box is opened up loose and put on the top stock shelf with the UPC facing out? Does head office not know how dusty the shelves get in a month? We are now putting loose towels, sheets, and blankets in the top stock? And we can't even put a second product above the first? I sense an incoming nightmare at Christmas time. Our receiving area is only so big! But yeah, let's fill it up with skid upon skid of boxes, that'll help us find items for customers! You know that they'll say, "It says you have 6 in stock," and yeah, maybe we do, but we'll have 8 skids of product, so.......Clearly head office has no concept of how this will (not) work.

And don't even get me started on the crappy app that makes us go between inventory management and me@walmart to get things done.

Sorry this is pretty long.

At the end of this week I'm putting my two weeks in. Honestly this job was nice at the beginning and I have grown to genuinely love the people I've worked with except jannet (fake name) our TL. Everyone hates her. I've endured through it because the pay is great and soon I'll finally be able to get my first car. I feel so proud of myself that I've earned this much. But im quitting because of a ton of things.

This job is so hard on your feet since your walking and were not allowed to even sit while were being paid. That doesn't include break's thankfully. We're not allowed to have water on us and we have to hide it literally. Were pushed to our absolute limits back here and it's so tiring and it's actually scary to see my coworkers pushed almost to the point of heatstroke while dispensing. Thankfully they can't put me on dispense since I told my coach I'd quit on the spot after a few too many incidents. Jannet is the main villain here. She treats everyone like dogs. I'm not kidding. I can't have a conversation with someone in front of her because she'd get in my face and say "picky picky!" Or "happy pickwalking!" Is so rude and she yells at us when she catches us standing still for just a minute to talk to others.

But I've realized I don't want to work for a big corporate place like wally world. And plus I want a place that'll actually let me have time off I requested because I'm going to miss my friends graduations. There's so much to do and I want to get my first part time job since they put me as full time for my first job. I want time for my friends and thankfully I live with my mom and she won't even dare let me move out until I'm happy and have enough to secure an apartment on my own. Plus I love her cooking. I only took this job to get a car and get out of my depression and it worked! And honestly I feel free. I'm happy and I'm so excited to leave Walmart fully. I'm not working there again. I'll get a temporary part time job in town so I can slowly learn how to drive and have enough to pay for gas and insurance. I'm not a big money spender so that's perfect.

And once I'm in a good place I'll finally get a job up in our city where I can work a dream job! Plus maybe get my ged along the way but the job I want doesn't require one. Luv y'all and hope y'all rest well!!

i’ve been working for nearly 2 months now and have seen dispensers prepping orders and immediately taking it out afterwards, especially if it is the top order by the time it’s ready. so i’ve been doing this as well with no issues or thinking anything of it. yesterday, someone asked me and a group of 2-3 other people standing nearby if you could dispense the same order that you prepped, because someone told him he couldn’t. we all shrugged and were confused because none of us heard of such a thing and have been doing it, so he continued to do it as well. fast forward to today, a team lead (she’s new) asked me if i had prepped the order that i was bringing out because i wasn’t supposed to, and i said yes, because i didn’t know it was a rule. i honestly forgot about what that interaction i had with that other coworker yesterday anyway. does anyone else’s store have this rule? is this actually a thing? i just can’t imagine our other team leads not saying anything to anyone for this long if it is. i couldn’t find anyone else talking about it on here. and what even is the point of the rule?

Y’all I used to have the fastest pick rate + quantity in the department. EVEN BAGGING AS I GO. But NOT since this new update with six totes. I used to MAINTAIN a 180+ pick rate and now I can’t. But I am going the same pace I always have. I finished the day at 115. And y’all this 30 items a walk is pissing me OFF! It be one or two items every walk there’s no point in even shlepping the carts down the aisles anymore! 😭

I notice that every day we have multiple customers (unscheduled orders) different names ordering a lot of monster energy drinks 12 packs and baby formula and i notice this path for the last month is like an everyday thing and im curious if anyone has the same experience, just wondering if there’s a new scam or just a new trend im not aware of…..
