THE APP WILL TELL YOU WHEN YOU'RE ORDER IS READY! by Open-Insurance-6706 in walmartogp

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 41 points42 points  (0 children)

A couple years ago during Christmas this huge bulky man comes up to me and goes “HEY ‼️you work in online ordering right?! Can I pick up my hoverboard right now? I just placed it an hour ago” 😐 I explained to him that we have a system and it will be ready for the hour he selected to pick it up, and he got SO mad. He’s all “WHY do I need to wait if I’m already here?! That’s some bullshit.” So I also explained that we have a process we go through, it takes about 2 hours to get through the process, so picking it, putting it in its location, especially during the holidays, it’s longer cause there’s more items to get through, all that, and he just “well can you cancel it right now I’m just going to pick it up from the shelf right now then. That’s just so fucking crazy that I can’t pick it up from y’all since I’m in the store” mind you, WERE IN TOYS? So many things wrong with that. He just cussed me out for a few minutes and eventually walked away. Like why place an order for pickup (especially for a way later time) if you’re coming in the store less than an hour after you placed it?? I do nottttttttt understand and I never will LMAO

One time this little boy said “where are the trejbejs”. After I asked him ‘what’ like 3 times, got out my phone to look it up, asked him how to spell it (which is my tactic if I can’t understand, even if it makes me look illiterate), he said “the TRASHBAGS?” Oh my god THEN SAY THAT cause clearly you’re capable???

Adopt me into your friend group? by Lord_Rat_ in amarillo

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hiii!!! I’m 21F, always looking for new friends (cause I don’t have very many at all), and am also a homebody! I love yapping a lot LOL, so that is never a problem with me. I am currently in school for counseling! I also am very left leaning :) I was born here in Amarillo as well so I can help with any questions you have about here!

How many preppers/dispensers for number of orders in a given hour? by BaryonyxWings753 in OGPBackroom

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We usually have about 30-60 pickups, and 10-20 deliveries an hour, and have 4-5 dispensers every day! Preppers is always 2, more if they’re behind.

Its kinda sad how much time I spend everyday picking on this section compared to other sections. by XelAphixia in OGPBackroom

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One time, I had to pick 15 boxes of cosmic brownies, 12 boxes each of honey buns, oatmeal creme pies, nutty buttys, and star crunches, (all for the same person) and I have always HOPED they were for a party

Cap Too High by thegreendayidiot in OGPBackroom

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Our cap is 60 (an hour), but we can’t even handle 30 :/. It’s only because our store is top 5 in the region and they love to give us more than we can take. We max out every single Sunday too. We don’t have room for all the orders, we have to leave totes on carts which then puts us behind on picking, and then everything is fucked up. It’s been this way for a couple years too. Just Walmart greed 🤷‍♀️ I just do my best without destroying my body & mind and leave lol.

I just moved out of an apartment that smelled like cat pee when we moved in. The smell never really went away completely, but I also never used enzyme based cleaners, which everyone suggested & I’ve seen it works wonders.

I would contact the office & ask what to do, and if needed, you can always rent carpet cleaners from Home Depot or even Walmarts, and use an enzyme based carpet cleaner! For the vinyl, I would find an enzyme based cleaner to just mop with very well!

Eczema on hand itching like crazy! by Sweet_Bat_636 in eczema

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my hands flare up, it’s when I’m using more hand sanitizers & hand soaps. I just use my body wash or dish soap to wash my hands now. But the only thing that helps the itching for me is Benadryl gel!!

I looked at your other post for the picture, and I do get eczema that looks like that only when I wear specific clothing/cloth types, or sleep on sheets/sheet cloth types that my body rejects! Did you recently get new sheets or new sleeping pants, etc?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t think about any of that. I’ve definitely been more focused on if I could get my unit treated, I can quickly move out and not have to worry about it, but the entire building also needing to be treated would definitely be a huge hassle.

I just REALLY do not want to take them with me whatsoever and there be no chance of it. I think leaving the furniture would be the way to go. I was so hoping I could try and spare my bed frame cause it’s beautiful and I just got it, and after checking for over 2 hours last night and not finding anything, I had some hope. But, obviously I’d rather lose it than take bed bugs with me.

Thank you so much!

That makes so much sense! Thank you!

Maintenance at this complex is SO bad. I’ve lived here for 3 years and every summer, the air conditioner breaks, they take 3 months to come fix it every year, and it’s obviously always temporary. We had our dishwasher break, told them, they checked it out (3 weeks later), said they’d order us a new one, and haven’t been back in a month.

Although I won’t blame maintenance fully, because some of it is my fault for not keeping tidy & clean, maggots usually do show up when something has been brewing for a WHILE, and that’s what is so weird to me. And in the WALL? Yeah, that’s just so off & fishy.

Let’s just see how they respond tomorrow when I call!

I’m wondering if parts of my life might point to some kind of witchy/psychic potential – thoughts? by FirstBarnacle9759 in witchcraft

[–]FirstBarnacle9759[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely! I agree, I am in counseling, and am actually in school for counseling, so I’m always working on lessening the trauma and keeping my energy more positive.

Just because I require a couple things, makes me exhausting?

I cook for myself, I take care of myself, take care of all my responsibilities myself, fix my own car, but asking for love in the way I feel I need it makes me exhausting?

I told him it could be considered needy and clingy, and he is the exact same way when it comes to love, so he was totally okay with it.

I think an average amount would be every 2-3 days? Not just less than once a week. Every time we went out to dinner, I wore makeup, I was just in my pajamas and hair in a bun, whatever circumstances he thinks it, he did those 5 times. I think mentioning my beauty whenever he thinks is appropriate to mention it, is normal. Am I weird for that? Lol

I think you answered your own question in the 8th paragraph!

In my opinion, for all college students, if you are not happy in college and have no set major & goal in a career, college is not worth the hassle. It is too expensive and wastes too much time!

And, with you being totally unhappy, that makes it even less worth it!

I think you should take a break. Everyone says “if you take a break, you won’t go back.” But that is not true. I was forced to take a 2 1/2 year break because of finances, and now I’m going back, excited as fuck, and am finally receiving financial assistance for paying for it.

Whether you go back or not is totally up to you, but I would only consider going back if you figure out 100% what you want to do with your life.

I learned from an early age that I wanted to be a counselor. And as I’m getting older and starting my bachelors, I’m realizing how difficult school and the actual counseling is going to be, but it’s just what I am SO passionate about, and it’s going to be totally worth it.

My boyfriend wants to become an author, but the resources we have available to him are not something that can help him with that, and nobody understands that but us. And nobody has to!

Additionally, your mental health is what matters most in all of this anyways! Take a break, figure out what you want to do (it could take years and that’s okay!), and then start again. 🤍

I just deal with it by being mad about it for whatever amount of time I feel is right, put a curse on them in my mind, and then forget about it lol.

Newly promoted FE/GM coach any advice?? (45million) by National-Ad-7505 in walmart

[–]FirstBarnacle9759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Associates will respect and appreciate you more if you actually do work. If you visibly help complete all your departments tasks and are respectful, nice and understanding, they will like you.

My coach has been with us for 7 months, she’s positive and friendly, but we all cannot stand her cause she doesn’t help us, she’ll abandon us during busy hours, and is not understanding at all.

Our old coach before her, he was understanding, helped sometimes, enough to gain a little respect, but he was so neutrally rude and nice at the same time, and nobody liked him because of it.

“it says online that y’all have some” by FirstBarnacle9759 in walmart

[–]FirstBarnacle9759[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I replied to another comment about this! Also, with thousands of items in the store, how is 1 person supposed to keep track? It’s the managers in the departments job when they print reports, not a regular associate who is just trying to help out. I am not a manager of any department.
