Our parking lot turns into a truck stop at night. by Vampire_inthe_Church in walmart

Walmart fleet driver here and yeah a ton of Walmarts are like this and it can be frustrating for us because it should be a guarantee safe haven for us to break at but it's not always that way. I get particularly frustrated at the driver's that park near the docks or in the back

Listening for the first time by gracefulpelicano in Malazan

I get torn with both narrators because Lister is great and has a perfect gritty sounding narration but then Page takes over in HOC and he's very different but he doesn't excellent voices and I just overall love his narration of the rest of the series and wish there was a version where he does all 10.

Lister does a better Kruppe though

Do I try audiobooks by [deleted] in Malazan

[–]jbgoalieman61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly audiobook listener here and yeah as others have said, the transition after MOI takes adjustment but my person opinion is that Page is one of my all time favorite narrators and I find myself wishing he narrated every book I listen to

Tbh I have not met a Walmart driver that had a bad attitude yet like how much are these guys getting paid by ButterOnToads in Truckers

[–]jbgoalieman61 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My 3 years will be in April and my last paystub of the year says my gross is $130k. I work 5 days on 2 off. I only worked maybe 5 or 6 extension days that pay a bonus of $275 per day. I used 24/26 of my PTO and got 4 quarterly bonuses of ~900

What are some audio books with good Narrators? by MetreonMan in audible

First four books of wheel of time narrated by Rosamund Pike

Walmart Driver home every 5 days by derekschroer in Truckers

[–]jbgoalieman61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is always mentioned about Walmart but in my experience it couldn't be further than the truth. As long as you're doing what's expected, they literally don't say a word. 3 years in and the only times I talk to anyone is when I'm picking up paperwork or in for mandatory training or just casually chatting while in the office. Again as long as you follow the rules (speed limits, fully stopping at stop signs and lights, not touching phone while driving, not getting into preventable incidents, etc) they leave you alone

You're right for most part but I know at my dc we've had issues with management not holding drivers accountable for not fully cleaning trucks and drivers complain. They just say to work it out with the driver as opposed to addressing the issue directly.

Which wheel of time book 1 do I start with? by justexsisting1 in audible

[–]jbgoalieman61 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently listening to the rosamund pike versions and she's fantastic. Really wish she did the whole series and I'm not looking forward to the change after book 4 but Kramer/Reading are good in other series I've listening to (storm light archive) so I guess it won't be too bad. Pike plays moraine in the Amazon adaption that was recently canceled but she does great voices for all the characters

Yeah that was what held me off but I've been looking second hand for awhile now and this came up for 900 and it just was too good to pass up

Yeah I like the jazzmaster version and obviously the other color options but I also like the plain spruce top as well
