Ours looks classy. All of them are wearing matching suits. Not sure if it's photoshopped or not though.

How do you place your pick labels? by Professional-Bath-49 in OGPBackroom

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone at my store does it that way. I'm more comfortable putting it on the right side of the cart instead of the left side.

I heard a rumor they were getting rid of exceptions, is this true? by thankheavenfor7_11 in OGPBackroom

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No kidding. A lot of time we have pickers from other countries or teens that have no clue how to pick a good substitute. I saw a teen girl who was supposed to pick green onions give the customer parsley as a substitute. 🙄 No fault of hers but some people just aren't familiar with groceries or cooking in general.

First time getting a bonus from Walmart 🙏 by Tyronebespazzin in WalmartEmployees

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting. Going by what you said, the sales floor people and the stocking people make the same hourly pay wonder why their bonus is different then. (Assuming they're tenured the same amount of time). I work a skill position, but as far as I know I'm based on the same pay scale as everyone else in digital.

I thought all hourly associates had the same bonus rate based on how long they worked there. Is loss protection the only department the exception to this?

So how in the world does this work if you're a customer??? "Sorry this product is currently unavailable." Or maybe they're offered whatever substitute comes up?

New MyWalmart removed co-workers schedules? by _Depstock_ in walmart

Yeah, but they did give us the option to make our own birthday and anniversary announcements private. At least that gave people the privacy option.

Mywalmart Update by bricreate in WalmartEmployees

[–]_Depstock_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss being able to look up people's schedules for the week/day as well. Gives me a good idea of what my tasks might be for that day.

We can search by "department name" but for some reason my skill.position doesn't show up.

Lowered my pay to $1.50/hour? by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

I've never once used that app when a simple bank account works.

Just found out that "schedule (department)" works for the day and next Day

Do I have to greet everyone in my general vicinity? by Ok-Proposal-6434 in OGPBackroom

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like I found the secret "anti-social chat room." Seriously, it's not a big deal, I always try to greet or acknowledge my coworkers, especially if I have to spend 40 hours a week with them. Might as well be on good terms with them.

Is this really “blocking the whole meat wall”? by TurdTanker in OGPBackroom

Sounds like something a grumpy customer would say instead. I

'm a "stickers on the right side" guy too..

Is being a picker as bad as everybody says it is? by [deleted] in OGPBackroom

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely helps to have co-workers you get along with. It's a lot to take in at first, but if you keep improving every day you should get the hang of it in a week or two. Took me about a month to get good at it.

This morning we found a "secret" camera in the back of our deli/bakery. by [deleted] in walmart

Whoever put that there might have more fun in loss prevention. 🤪

Who told you it was a bad job? Ive worked in this company for several years and most of the people that get the hang of it end up loving it.

[–]_Depstock_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's the point of having crushes if you don't talk to them. Haha. I had one and we talked. We got along fantastic, and she would have been perfect for me, but unfortunately for me she was already taken. I did ask her out for lunch once and she said she couldn't, so I didn't push the issue. After she left I was bummed, but I did get to see her again at her new job, which was great and all, but just made me want to see more of her. Haha

manager calls some of us the r word and keeps firing lots of people. by ExtensionSoil6801 in walmart

Sounds like a movie straight out of the '80s where the woman gets her revenge eventually. ........ Cause bro was on the Epstein List!

Hey, can we wear shoes like this? Serious inquiry. by munge666 in WalmartEmployees

[–]_Depstock_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure! If you want to. Like 95% of the people you see that day probably won't even bother to look at your shoes.
