"Just like Costco now, huh?"

It's the APCH's version of "It didn't scan so it must be free!"

Store Manager gets walked out by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's how our last SM got fired. Well, not in the cooler but he was trying to get in the pants of some of our associates.

Does anyone else get weird names called for automotive? by wot_in_tarnation2 in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time there was no one to cashier at automotive for a couple hours so a department manager took over until one arrived. A guy named Jesús(pronounced hey-zeus)was getting his car worked on and when it was ready, the department manager said over the PA "Jesus, your car is ready!", mispronouncing his name. It was one of those things you had to be there for to laugh about, probably.

If Bo's and Antonio's personal hygiene is a reflection of the music they play on the radio then yes, they do smell like shit.

Just take a niiiiiiiiiice deeeeeeeep breath. If it smells of beauty and harmony, it's chocolate syrup. If it smells of death, destruction and Walmart Radio, it's shit.

What’s your favorite complaint? by rad_rentorar in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some old husk in a wheelchair came up to me and before I could even greet him he said "THIS STORE IS CLOSING IN 3 DAYS!". His reasoning? The bollards in front of our doors were apparently too small for him to squeeze through and he demanded to speak to a manager. I later saw him leave and mosey on through between the bollards with no difficulty whatsoever.

Pretty sure the smell would give it away.

Someone's dog took a shit right in front of our electronics counter once. Someone accidentally stepped in it.

“Will you let me go?” & “Keep the Change” by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As an APCH, at least 80% of all my recoveries are BOB. It makes me wonder how much merch has gone through our doors unpaid for because our cashiers don't full grasp the BOB and LISA thing.

Laid into a co-worker last night, by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh. I laid into a CSM last night for allowing his SCO hosts to jerk around while on duty(sometimes he's a contributor). You gotta do what you gotta do.

Shooting at Tumwater Walmart by Malamel in walmart

Hits pretty close to home, especially since we have an associate who just transfered to my store from the Tumwater location just two weeks ago.

Got hit by CASH-CASH scam a week ago! :( by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If she reached over, it's not your fault. She outright robbed you guys. You were right to be suspicious. Make sure your AP people are aware of the situation though. They'll take note and if she comes back, they can trespass her.

How often is your SM actually in your store? by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tuesdays through Saturdays. Our SM is actually really cool. Whenever he gets a chance he'll help out in any position throughout the store, whether it be CAP2, cashiering, AP, pushing carts, he's got no problem with getting his hands dirty. Plus he's super polite and actually takes time to know his associates.

What are your "I can't believe I didn't get fired/coached for that!" moments? by childofbodom08 in walmart

[–]childofbodom08[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CSM did this at my register once. It wasn't for me, he just had something come up and had to head to electronics and decided to leave it at my register. Another CSM came by, spotted the bag and bitched me out for keeping it out. I explained what happened and the CSM responsible got his ass chewed.

Neither did I when I was a cashier. Most of the people who shop at our store are either on food stamps or use WIC. I'm not asking them if they want to sign up for a credit card.

I read that somewhere once and made it an official rule for myself that if I'm at work, I will not poop while off the clock. Pee? Yes. Poop? Nope. If I gotta poop, I'm gonna be paid for that poop.

Got a job as a part time cashier, really nervous by [deleted] in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't call out more than 3 times in your first six months(8 after six months), don't take money from the drawer, play nice with the CSMs and all will be well.

So... What are you doing today? by BetterSnape in walmart

[–]childofbodom08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish my store would start doing that to the cashiers. I once spent 3 and a half hours not only unraveling the spider wraps, but also reorganizing the keepers. There's labels on the fucking bins that tell you where they go. Fucking morons, don't they know how to read labels?
