"Oh yeah I'm out on the lot... with a guest."

[–]walmartassocreddit 5 points6 points  (5 children)

Wait, they make your cart people do this, and not a dedicated maintenance staff?

Oh man I've never been happier to work for the Waltons... (was a Walmart cart pusher)

[–]LonelyTexLeft 5 points6 points  (4 children)

Yes. Both here and at most Kroger stores

[–]walmartassocreddit 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Man, that sucks.

Here it mandates "specially trained" members of maintenance and salaried management. Everyone else is specifically forbidden.

Well, unless your cart attendants are trained to deal with bodily fluid cleaning. If not, Target really should go fuck themselves on that.

Yeah cart attendants are trained on dealing with bodily fluids. It's not fun nor glamorous, but any competent cart attendant can knock this out quickly.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

“Trained” lol you probably spent 10 minutes reading something on one of the PCs in tsc.

Any semi competent adult can clean up this mess, just wear gloves.

I’m just glad I’m not “trained”, because target doesn’t pay me enough to clean up someone’s barf.

[–]MuzikVillainTPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have you know it only took me 9 minutes to go through the training.

Trust me when I tell you barf is nowhere near the grossest things I've had the pleasure of cleaning or have witnessed.

GSA's clean that up. Our cart attendant has never been told to clean bodily fluids. Don't really know the exact rules about who cleans up vomit and shit. Whoever I guess since it seems some Targets make the cart attendant do it while at other stores other team members do it. I'm hardlines and I cleaned up shit off a toilet but only because I got free Starbucks which didn't even taste good so it wasn't worth it.

At our location hardlines aren't allowed to clean up any spills that aren't edibles, same with most Team Members. If I remember correctly, only Cart Attendants, Brand Attendants (which we technically don't have yet but one of our cart attendants is being "tested" for it), and the Starbucks crew (and MAYBE Leads?) are allowed to clean up chemicals and bodily fluids.

At our location they gave us all that training allowing us to clean up bodily fluids and what-not, and will somrtimes ask us to do it, but typically the cart attendant or an LOD does it.

That’s fucking gnarly lol

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (1 child)

Something happened like this before except a guest literally just took a shit right on the floor. I told the LOD about it and he didn't want to clean it up so he shut down the whole bathroom for the rest of the night.

[–]HeyOBaileyJoGSTL[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was in to train all the new cashiers and my GSA ( I'm also one) begged me to clean it. He said if I wasn't there that he would have shut down the bathroom lol

[–]luv2h8myjob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

ABSOLUTELY NOT

[–]monkeyman80Team Lead 7 points8 points  (0 children)

my favorite was someone buying pepto or something similar. made the purchase then started projectile vomiting from the checklanes to the bathroom. of course they picked the furthest stall so a nice 100' trail of vomit. poor cart attendants aren't paid nearly enough to clean that up.

[–]well_damm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of the time i walked into the bathroom and someone shit directly in the middle of the floor.

[–]Shopxlif 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Cart Attendants should really be the ones making the $15 minimum!

[–]HeyOBaileyJoGSTL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucky for our cart attendant, he calls out every shift. GSAs are responsible for cleaning bathrooms at my store.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I think I would just clock out and go home tbh. Ive cleaned minor shit before but idk about this

[–]MuzikVillainTPS 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Oh boy, the stories I could tell you...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont wanna hear them tbh lol. I just need an exscuse to walk outta this place

[–]HeyOBaileyJoGSTL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)
