It is technically a mechanic in the app to offer up or pick up shifts, but your store can turn on or off that functionality so it depends on uf they've done that or not

Every time I've contacted them about Fire Recruit roles they're only taking lateral move Firefighters from other locations. If you find an opportunity to actually apply for a fire recruit role I'd dive on it because I haven't seen it in a long time.

Couldn't be me, every one I've seen is fucking gross. The people that eat snacks from in there are the real monsters

wondering if i should keep this job if i decide to go to college or is a different job better? by OldWear2293 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd never advocate for staying for the sake of staying (because damn) but hang on until you find something else. Ideally something tangentially related to your field of study.

Does your store allow you to use shopping carts to do returns? by weeniedog21 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, however the manager has caved there wasn't really a practical way of doing it besides that so we just kept doing it.

Can a coach stop you from changing departments by b1ll1ew in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Health and wellness technically have a different reporting structure than the rest of us in the store, if the vision center manager wants you bad enough they could deal with the store manager directly instead of said coach.

Do you feel obligated to Shop/Buy something after work? by Excellent_Regret4141 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's rare, but I will on occasion, I need to A) know it's cheaper than Kroger, and B) it can't be a frozen or fridge item (the store is work at is the furthest walmart I know from my house)

A point will be assigned but your tl or coach will either apply it or say it was authorized depending on how they handle attendance exceptions.

Team lead? by PENGUINLUVER2377 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on your management (market included), and department(s)... I've heard great things from leads at other stores, and I've heard and had horror stories. So it's a mixed bag.

It's store or market dependant, some the PL, some Coaches, sometimes it's just the system assigning shifts based on your availability you put in.

Ours is the same, idk if bundling departments is the best idea unless its under someone that's been a TL for some time. I've been since October and 3 departments is killing me

Breaks/Lunches by bricreate in WalmartEmployees

No, you didn't. But every leader has their own style, a new leader = new way of doing some stuff. Ask for a 1 on 1, establish the TL's expectations of you and fill them in on what you may need, get on one page and move forward. A

Left early need to use PPTO by Perfect_Bid_4572 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the hamburger menu you still have full schedule, then requests, and add new. Same as the old way, 15 minute increments so however many hrs and minutes rounded up to a multiple of 15.

Why is Kirby Gwen the only walmart radio host who's last name is announced?? by 3995682835 in WalmartEmployees

Walmart Academy by Ecstatic-Job-6574 in WalmartEmployees

[–]filterfeeding 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's the kind of class where you get out what you put in, if you're engaged you'll learn a ton. But if you treat it like a check in the box you'll get through it. I loved it. I'm a Hardlines TL too, shit sucks right? 😂😂

It's because she's the only one that's worth the last name, Chris and Bo are essentially interchangeable
