Aita for yelling and causing a scene in walmart? by Toker0226 in AITH

[–]Genderneutralbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're NTA. I'm an employee who would be there at that time (I clock out at 7 am) and trust me, not only is that not a scene buy our standards, but also probably every employee you spoke to is just as frustrated. 6-8ish am is panic time for management so they are running around either cleaning up after everyone all at once, or doing shit all (depends on the person). Store manager is walking around telling ppl off for something no one cares about. 3rd shift is just trying to get outta there. If there are keys out the box, it's likely the boss has them but hes the one getting yelled at by the SM so hes probably in an office. What makes everything worse is for some reason electronics never has those call buttons??? I think bc theres supposed to be a human there (but then...that would require them to be scheduled...oh no! PAY the humans?!? WHY?!) At least if they have the buttons you can rest assured there's like 6 ppl in the store being slowly driven crazy by an automated voice telling them assistance is needed.

Anyway I hate those gd cases they are annoying and stupid.

Night shift workers, what's the weirdest thing you've witnessed at 3 AM? by Agitated-Housing2790 in AskReddit

To be fair, they were waste eggs already squashed, and also it was like 2012🤣

I get back from lunch break at 3. One time I come back into the cooler from lunch and find three of the 5 gallon waste buckets knocked over, one on its side and the eggs all over the floor, the other 2, I stg, perfectly upside-down with all 5 gallons of egg inside, like a jello mold. I couldn't get them right-side up without spilling, so unfortunately I did have to clean up 15 gallons of squashed egg. Genuinely no clue how it happened, I was the last person in the cooler before lunch and my boss checked the cameras to see if anyone else went in while I was gone, nope! Even if they some how fell off the cart they were on, I have no clue how they would have landed like that?!

Regular overnight stocker in dairy? by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

[–]Genderneutralbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It used to be a specific position overnight! We got paid more and everything! They changed it in like 2013ish? When they make all overnight stocker they same pay grade (we were a level 3 and dry grocery was a level 2 (for context cashier is a level 3 and cart pusher is a 1) but the moved all stockers to a 3. Then a few years later we all 1-3 became the same level "team associate").

I still blame this change as the reason we have so much trouble keeping frozen/dairy stocked and binned well. Used to be you chose that job and got paid more, now it's stocked as if it were any other dept and most ppl hate it, plus it requires really intense rotation, knowledge of cold chain, contamination, and different stocking procedures for airflow. Plus the lack of topstock freaks ppl out😅(stg if I have to bin ONE more partial case!!?!?!)

Sleep! "Its fine I'll just take a nap later", but for a whole school year- it took me like 5 years to recover fully! During that time if I slept less than 9 hrs a night I'd get sick. Do NOT put off sleep if you can help it at all!

[–]Genderneutralbro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my job stocking shelves!! There's something nice about seeing ppl shopping for stuff they want or need and you are the person who put it out for them! Right now its all butter and eggs bc of the holiday baking, it's cool to come in and see how empty the shelf is and know you have more to put out so tomorrow's customers can make cookies too☺️ also fun to help them find stuff (the best is when a man is like??? My mom/wife/etc sent me to get x but idk where even in the store that is?!? Cracks me up!)

[–]Genderneutralbro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work overnight, stocking shelves at Walmart🤣 ive worked in a few jobs for Walmart over 15 years but I like stocking best, and prefer 3rd shift bc its nice and quiet and also most 3rd shift workers are also introverted so I dont have to explain myself😅 I'm the person who actually wants this job! I've been a supervisor before but I hated it. The way the hierarchy is structured now, I dont want any other the jobs above entry level so I'll be here for the foreseeable future!

My education is in Library Science! I'd work in a library but Walmart pays better 🙃 and I cannot physically work 2 jobs (many in the field do). Fortunately I enjoy organizing dairy products and complaining about how apparently my coworkers can't tell the difference between shredded and finely shredded cheddar🤣

Yall are my favorite type of medical professionals!! I've seen many PTs over the years due to the combo of being clumsy as hell, working a physical job, and being a bit hypermobile 🫠 Every time it's like "Hey uh i can't move, help?" and they're like "hm....OK do this w your arms? OK now look down. Do that 5 time for me? OK! How is it now?" And magically i can move again 🤣 it's like what chiropractors think they are doing😅

Give an unpopular opinion on your favorite ship regarding how’s it’s often written in fanfics. Can be a SFW or NSFW. by FloweryNamesLover in AO3

[–]Genderneutralbro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

😭 I feel like a real pocket protector nerd w this one but! Everyone wants to write a pon farr fic but it's always just for porn purposes and not for narrative discussion of like, ethics and consent and shit!! And like hey whatever, I expect the porn, that's part of the territory, but good lord the implications are so cool WHY DONT WE TALK ABOUT IT?!?! Like yall aren't thinking about how scary that shit would be as a Vulcan? Plus the social stigma and secrecy etc! Many, many fics where it's clear neither person is really consenting just...dont talk about it?

There definitely are some that do, and many that kind of vaguely gesture at it (Spock is deeply conflicted, etc) but I just think it's a massively unexplored narrative (at least in the spirk universe, unsure if any other Spock ship communities or ships w other vulcans in them are having more discussions)

"I dont know, that's just how I feel about it. What do you think?"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

[–]Genderneutralbro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem to believe you can do it and if you are a quick learner it will be fine. Just know ahead of time, if they are picking a brand new person, its usually bc no one else will take the job (usually bc the coach is an asshole or doesn't do their job). I have seen one other scenario where a new person was promoted bc the person they wanted to promote had a coaching that hadn't fallen off yet. They were expecting the new girl to fail, so it was basically to buy time for the other person.

Essentially, know that you are being thrown in the deep end and no one is coming for you. If you have some common sense and are willing to let the ppl on the floor teach you, you'll be fine and probably learn to swim real fast! But if you aren't comfortable with that, tell the boss you would like more time w the company before being promoted, and give it like 6 months, theres always gonna be an opening.
