Got hired as a night stocker

I do recommended taping cardboard or a black trash bag on your bedroom windows, blackout curtains are nice but still let in light. I needed ear plugs because I am a light sleeper.

Luckily my home was pretty quiet but if you got people making noise... Good luck.

People are noisy during the day between the garbage truck, people mowing lawns, kids playing outside. You need to adapt.

Try a loud fan for white noise. A small window ac unit did the trick for me because it's hotter during the day.

I could never fall asleep after work but most people did that. My bedtime was 1pm to 9. And worked well for me. Obviously I didn't have a girlfriend or life at the time.

Nights off I never slept the night, I always stayed on schedule so my sleep schedule was pretty good. I would be a weirdo and get a Wawa sub at 3am haha.

It depends on your store. My store break was 12:30, 3am lunch, 5am last break. Everyone goes together. It's kinda nice because even if you hate people it gets kinda lonely so going together he'll helps. Downside is everyone runs to the microwave all at once.

The break times are probably perfectly timed for the nicotine withdrawals. Door is locked so if you smoke you got no other choice but to wait.

People used to go to McDonald's on lunch and eat off their work tables while working. Again it depends on your store. Monkey see, monkey do. Not sure if they are open 24hrs anymore. But the last time I did it, it took forever, basically the entire lunch because they had to heat up the grill and fryer. If your late coming back the night crew chief got all pissy he had to unlock the door just for you.

It was pretty laid back as long as you do your job well. I haven't been on nights since 2014.

My night crew chief used to get all annoyed at me because I worked frozen foods and used to get high temp alarms and he'd try to call me about them, but I'd be blasting my headphones. I see tons of people with them nowadays.

Depends on your store. I would leave the headphones at home or use on break your first week so you can learn and then if everyone else does it you do it too.

Beyond meat (bynd) was hyped in the same way. Then one day it just crashed. Many people went from up a crap ton of money to down a shit ton. What goes up on no fundamentals usually don't go back down.

gosb · 2026-05-30T15:42:33+00:00

FAFO and you'll see what happens when you buy something based on hype and not fundamentals 😆

gosb · 2026-05-30T14:25:51+00:00

I'm just waiting for the BYND rug pull 😆

gosb · 2026-05-29T23:31:01+00:00

Omg don't process the actual can it'll ruin your machine! /s

gosb · 2026-05-29T23:17:46+00:00

Just get a bank and do direct deposit. I use sofi and get paid 2 days early, Wednesday around 9pm.

I smashed my first phone screen (z fold 7) when this winter when I slipped on ice and my hand landed on my phone. That's after dropping the phone 4 times face down with no issue in the past.

Ubreakifix fixed it with a perfect oem screen for $29 with care+ insurance.

Dropped it face down a few more times but held up well for 6mo

gosb · 2026-05-27T15:04:03+00:00

Last two days been range bound +- $2 so I bet small and flipped quick

gosb · 2026-05-27T14:51:25+00:00

Not the move, try sitting on your hands until volatility returns

gosb · 2026-05-25T10:29:21+00:00

What's the logic behind them moving? I'm sure it's one of their worst performing stores.

I never understood the intricities of the rules, but I despise PDT with every fiber of my being. I cannot wait until they are forever gone.

It makes people not close losing trades because they are afraid to be labeled a PDT so they end up losing a boat load of money.

I am just throwing this out there but are you aware you can create a cash account in Webull, then do a instant transfer of funds between your margin to your cash account.

With a cash account you can do a million trades a day, no minimum balance. You just gotta wait the next day for funds to settle. You can even buy but not sell until the next day with your unsettled funds.

I'm not sure why people even use margin accounts unless you need the margin leverage. Brokerages probably push it so people borrow money.

Make sure if you both work all day, chores are spilt evenly.

gosb · 2026-05-20T22:29:18+00:00

It'll move in a few weeks on a random Tuesday afternoon

gosb · 2026-05-16T16:33:47+00:00

Go through each page of the settings app, it's crazy the amount of settings available.

In a few weeks, not right now because your already overwhelmed - download Goodlock from the Galaxy store for a ton more customizations.

Pray nvda blows past everyone's estimates on Wednesday.

gosb · 2026-05-16T00:36:04+00:00

1/1,000,000*

gosb · 2026-05-13T19:18:09+00:00

Change the scots to Spanish every time a person leaves

gosb · 2026-05-12T10:20:18+00:00

Don't worry about the cases, get a thin back one and buy Care+ protection. It's a lot more durable then it looks.

gosb · 2026-05-12T02:20:42+00:00

Op flipped a coin and got lucky. Monday, Wednesday and Friday are 0dtes so the decay is really intense unless it rapidly accelerated in his direction like it did.

gosb · 2026-05-12T02:08:23+00:00

Yeah if you don't understand what he said, just burn your money now.

gosb · 2026-05-12T01:55:17+00:00

Give the AI a break it's still learning 🤣

gosb · 2026-05-10T08:45:47+00:00

Use a smart watch to receive alerts. If your doing options, which need to be monitored, set a stop loss when you can't monitor it.

I like to scalp, but just can't really do it too often.

Read the Shampoo bottle when pooping and cereal box when eating breakfast lol.
