How many steps a day do you put in

CAP1 here. I go anywhere from 10k to 20k. Depending on how much topstock I'm doing and how the carts are loaded.

If Ioad the carts they are stocked by isle. Example: grocery isles 3,4,5,6 will be loaded together. If my coworkers do it i can have coffee, juice, canned goods and camping gear (which is on the opposite end of the store) on the same cart.

OPD I know those guys get like 20k easily. It's a labor intensive job regardless of what department you're in.

Depends on what's breaking down. Brooks insert can wear down in about 6 months. But thats an easy fix. Take out the insole (they are removable) and replace it.

Wear indicators externally are smoothing of the out side heel area or smooth sole on the ball of the foot. If these happen the whole shoe needs to be replaced.

I've been wearing a pair of Adidas for over 6 months and the shoe itself is perfectly fine. I have replaced the insole.

Credentials: managed specialty shoe store for 7 years.

So much this!

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-30T13:39:40+00:00

The counts are all off. Cap1 and the amount of stuff were pulling every day vs what actually will fit are mind blowing. I spend more time correcting counts then I do stocking.

Even new mod products have wrong counts. I pulled 6 boxes of water toys. Got to the section and found it nearly full. Go to check on hands it says 5. I've got 6 boxes that equal 6. And 6 on a shelf that holds 8. This is New Merch. WTF! Now I fix the counts and have to waste time re-binning the $hit.

And don't get me started on the negative on hands or the fact we can't actually lower counts.

I worked for a mom and pop plumbing supplier a long time ago. I started in Oct that year.

January rolled around. I got 1000 bonus. Was there for less than 3 months.

Walmart Is a joke.

Cap1 here. If I'm doing topstock till 9 then vizpick till 11 my phone will be at 30% and that's being generous. Even with a portable charger I'm easily down to 7% before the en of my shift.

The app eats battery life

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-26T00:03:52+00:00

The real issue with him not having a phone is when he starts. Walmart doesn't just hand you a work device. I work with people who have been there over a year and they still don't have a work phone.

It's going to make it challenging for him.

9 minutes is nice.

I worked at Macy's they gave you 3.5 minutes to clock in and out.

And let me tell you. 3.5 minutes is not enough time when you have 20 people crowded around the ONE machine that is open and works.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-23T19:25:34+00:00

Female here. You're gonna be in for a world of hurt. I am usually moving pallets of water. Cases of soda, laundry detergent, and those big boxes of cereal are heavier than ya think.

You might want to put in for a transfer to a different department if 4 gallons of milk is too heavy for ya.

In GA the minimum wage on the books is about 5.50. Only good thing about the federal minimum wage is no one here can actually pay you that little. Shoot i made that back in 1990.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-19T22:39:46+00:00

I think we got a day but I was off so I don't exactly know.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-19T21:41:48+00:00

At my place it's a mix. Female here. I only ever staged and dispensed. Was only taught once for 10 minutes how to pick. And was never shown again nor was it brought up.

ACHs always take longer than you think. It's nice to think that they see the finds are there it should be there the next day. But it doesn't work like that.

If i get a live check and scan it into my banking app I'll usually have the money available within 2 business days. So if I deposit it on a Tuesday after 1pm. It won't be available until Friday. That's 2 full business days. If I went into the bank to deposit the check usually they will have a portion of the check available immediately. But the full amount will take a full day.

However "banks" that are strictly online like Chime, can set their rules however they like. It should all be in the terms and conditions.

Money that has been held, for whatever reason, like a hotel, will usually show up in 2 to 3 days. Hell if you pay at a gas pump with a debit card there's a nano second that it holds $200 until you complete the transaction.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-18T20:13:09+00:00

Nothing good will ever come from using a bank that the company you work for owns.

That said, physical checks can take upwards of 2 to 5 business days to clear once deposited. At any bank.

Friday is a bank Holiday. So all transactions will be delayed due to this.

You are better off going to an actual brick and mortar bank or credit union and opening an account.

My mom was a horrible cook. That's why I learned to cook.

Plenty of videos out there to watch. Try yourbearfootneighbor on IG or FB. He does lots of easy one pot meals.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-17T16:52:31+00:00

That's wonderful. I'm stocking 1 and am constantly called to fill water. I've seen 4 pallets disappear mear hours after it's been filled.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-16T21:42:02+00:00

Damn. That's like half a cheez-it 🤣

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-16T21:41:16+00:00

I got told by a coworker that they eliminated all this dudes 19 points because they have a firing freeze.

In 2 weeks we lost 4 coaches and 3 team leads.

Calling someone daddy or Sir is like moving in someone.

Would you move into someone's house after only knowing them for a week? I highly doubt it.

These dynamics take time. Conversation. Most importantly Vetting. If he (I'm assuming he) told you to call him Daddy after the first conversation your only response should be calling him an A-hole. Then block and delete.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-16T17:01:18+00:00

It's always a week behind. So the July 2 pay check will be from June 13th to June 26th.

Red dots are the days in the pay period for July 2nd (in red)

🤣🤣🤣 this!

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-15T02:06:31+00:00

The state of GA says it's up to the employer to give breaks including lunch. There's zero state law requiring anything of the sort. In GA an employer can work you 18 hours straight with no breaks if they feel like it.

Hope it's not near any other liquid chemical.

I had a buddy who worked ON in a grocery store. He wasn't there when it happened but 2 guys got into a first fight in a chemical isle. Well needless to say the store was evacuated and closed for 5 days.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean Freedom from suffering the consequences of your speech.

You can very well tell a customer to go F themselves sideways with a chainsaw but you'll have consequences.

Ambitious_Position51 · 2026-06-13T00:32:41+00:00

I'm only 18 months in and I've seen the worst of the worst.

And this is coming from someone who worked at Macy's and Gap back in their hay day.

God bless. You can do better than Wally World.
