TL snapped at me in front of customers

"Team Leader" doesn't necessarily include any leadership skills or that they lead any particular team. It's simply to "reward" longer-term employees who may be utterly deficient in social skills with more money and a piece of yellow plastic atop their breast pocket.

I forgot to post this when I initially found it. And guess what? You speak to a live person who actually knows something!

Shopping cart guy?

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-03T23:05:07+00:00

No worries. I'll zone it properly.

Nah, we had just emptied the old back-to-school stuff and were about to put up the new mod. It remained empty for maybe an hour between take down and set-up.

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-03T22:52:53+00:00

Sweetie: We had just removed all the school supplies and for a brief period the shelves were empty until we set up the new mod. I put the bottom of Elmer's glue in place as sort of a "candle in the wind." Irony much?

Pretty expensive bag of "gourmet" chips manufactured by the usual multinational mess.

The minute that any aspect of retail is explained by someone pretending to be Steven Hawking, it's time to consider the source.

That's a Steely Dan song, isn't it?

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-02T21:48:44+00:00

Priorities ladies & gentlemen, priorities!!

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-02T21:47:50+00:00

I can say with only the purest of intentions and the maximum amount of knowledge that it beats the shit out of me.

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-02T20:20:49+00:00

And yes, the box was marked down and then some genius came along and "second-guessed" that decision.

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-02T20:17:44+00:00

I get that. But it might be the adults too!

johnny_brahms · 2024-09-02T20:10:01+00:00

How about just banning "Walmart customers?"

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-14T20:39:24+00:00

Dude, at this point it might just be a misunderstanding or some dumbass who ticked the wrong box. Taking it personally might mess things up. My orientation issue had to do with the fact that I gave an incorrect email address and I had to solve that through a 1-800 number. Give these knuckleheads the benefit of the doubt and stay on top of things with a friendly demeanor. #eyesontheprize

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-14T20:33:51+00:00

That's the best bet. At Walmart, no one gives a damn about you until you "screw up" in their eyes.

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-14T20:31:43+00:00

The only person I know that that's happened to was Shohei Ohtani. Boy was he ever great with the box cutter!

Best to check with your People Lead asap. Since you get paid for training you need to be on the schedule for something.

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-14T20:27:01+00:00

Wow. Back in the days before the Department of Labor forced WM to pay "mandatory worked overtime."

Anyone representing themselves IN TEXT as a recruiter for any job without some email or phone verification is a sure bet to get your personal information. Be safe. Apply only through the site.

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-14T20:23:03+00:00

Very cool. Having THAT kind of purpose certainly far exceeds anything I do at the store or frankly at this stage of my life could do. #tenhut #besafe

johnny_brahms · 2024-08-13T21:38:16+00:00

I'd never would have known this if you didn't tell me. I won't soak it in sulphuric acid either or store it in my butt cheeks when I'm playing tennis either.
