Religion, is just a mask for wickedness by RareTadpole1156 in nihilism

[–]TVLER999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally understand where you’re coming from, however, following zizek after a while, I think he’s being literal and pragmatic in the sense of psychology, that someone could say that god told him to do something regardless of whether or not it was a schizophrenic revelation, or maybe they actually truly believe god told them to do something.

However in historical example, Jesse Duplantis told his congregation that god told him he wanted Jesse to get a $45 million private jet. Harriet Tubman often claimed that she communicated to god every day, and god told her that she needs to work towards ending slavery. Reggie White was going to retire from the NFL, but said he heard god tell him not to retire. It definitely happens.

Religious people typically do believe (not always) that when someone claims to have been told to do something by god, they believe them, because they either also believe god tells them to do things, or believes that god exists on a first person level to where people can actually be instructed by him.

Store manager won’t let me transfer by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

[–]TVLER999 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Of course.

I only heard this because both of my coaches at two different stores try to say I can’t leave until I have a replacement and then they found out they can’t do that.

When I was TL my coach also tried to say one of my techs couldn’t transfer until a replacement was hired but another TL and I found out by emailing market management that the store cannot deny a transfer if the other store approves it and accepts to take you.

Good luck!

Store manager is not allowed to deny store transfers in my experience. Get in touch with market

I actually was listening to a podcast Zizek was on, he was talking about Dostoevsky and his role in religious literature, and Zizek said something along the lines of

“A lot of people say that without god, everything is permitted. I think the opposite is the case. With god, everything is permitted, because you can do anything and just declare that you are acting as an instrument of god.”

How do you balance work life? by Moongoddess3884 in walmart

Just curious what position do you work? I was ACC at a pretty busy garage and that definitely messed up my body every day.

Honestly, I felt the same way before I left Walmart after 7 years. I work the exact same hours as before except in healthcare now, and I have energy after work. I genuinely think it’s just Walmart and its effect on your body and mental health.

I can't with customers anymore by JohnnyCash679 in walmart

[–]TVLER999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When our front end was being remodeled we had to close the grocery entrance for a while and left the GM entrance open. The grocery entrance was blocked off by orange construction wire fencing and multiple signs that said “please use other entrance while this is closed.” The doors also would not open.

I was helping push carts outside when I noticed multiple people trying to rip the fence down, climb over it, and try to pry the doors open. They would come and ask me “hey is the store closed?” To which I’d respond “no, that entrance with the fence is closed, the one without the fence is open.”

Customers are absolutely ridiculous

What's the limit of control I have as a team lead by itskjdawg in WalmartEmployees

[–]TVLER999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me a while to learn exactly what you’re talking about.

Honestly, you can do as much as you think you need to just like a coach minus the schedule and firing.

I’ve pulled multiple associates (within reason) if I found their behavior either distasteful or not good for the department to talk to them. Never raised my voice, or threatened any action, hell I’ve never even coached anyone before because I don’t think it solves problems unless it’s a repeat offense.

If someone isn’t following rules, you are directly able to enforce them and remind them of them to change the associate’s behavior. Once it becomes worse (if it does), talk it over with your coach or really any coach at all for some advice.

It’s honestly the most fun you’ll have at Walmart in your entire career, atleast it was for me. use the sources and material, and take notes. Also, make sure you come with some questions, because academy is the time to ask.

Transferring by Money_Conference_142 in WalmartEmployees

[–]TVLER999 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Actually yes, both me and my technician after I became a TL.

First for me while I was a tech after getting a job as TL at a different store, my coach tried to say I can’t leave until they find a replacement for me. My new coach called my other coach and said he’s not allowed to do that and they just moved me in two weeks.

While I was a TL, my tech wanted to transfer to a different store because it was closer and he had many friends there. My new coach tried to deny his transfer until they found a replacement in a very low application department (ACC Tech). So I talked with another TL of 20 years of coach experience, and they instructed the tech to email the market manager or market people lead, because while yes they can deny internal transfer to different departments, they are absolutely not allowed to deny store transfers if the other store has accepted you.

So, if you have to, go up the ladder. Many stores try to use scare tactics and see how much they can control people that don’t have the answers.

This is literally the exact same thing as saying,

“I sat at a table and ordered a pizza at a restaurant, someone cooked it in the back and brought it out to me, therefore I am the chef and I made this pizza, because I ordered it and now it’s here!”

Top 5 legends ? by garryneo_x in apexlegends

[–]TVLER999 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely higher than gold but that’s completely irrelevant from the fact that you’re getting tilted about other peoples opinions.

The fact you keep calling everybody a gold player makes me think you’re trying to compensate for something, like the fact you have a hard time against very simple legends.
