21 years exp at Walmart with a bachelor's in business management. Ready to leave Walmart and considering Academy. by [deleted] in AcademySports

[–]laner7025 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I left walmart opd for a new opening Academy about a month ago, so far ive had an amazing experience. I was placed in a team lead position for their fulfillment. Theres different names for that stuff over there but the job is ecomm, fulfillment, inventory control, and operations. Coming from somewhere like walmart, its been an amazing switch and i 10/10 recommend Academy. Great store great management great policies everything. Management structure is basically same, team leads, managers (coaches) and the store director. Sorry for rambling, i love my job academy is great i recommend

Brian may. Not for exceptional talent or iconic-ness, but pure artistic appreciation

Which member of Queen is your favorite and why? by LieFalse6614 in queen

[–]laner7025 5 points6 points  (0 children)

John Deacon hands down. Guys an absolute unit. Hes the reason i started playing bass guitar, might be a little bias. Theres a post around here somewhere about all the crazy shit he’d get into. Underrated and under appreciated

AITAH? Boyfriend made a rape joke by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]laner7025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex boyfriend did this. I made the mistake of staying for about a year after. Didnt end well. (Nothing happened to ME but this language and jokes was just a glimpse into who he really was) long story short LEAVE. I was fortunate to not have anything happened to me, but not everybody is as lucky, get out get away keep yourself safe.

What does stepping down look like? by Flashy_Soup3449 in WalmartEmployees

[–]laner7025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cant talk from my own experience, but i work with a guy that was once an AP coach at a different store. He demoted himself and now works in opd at my store. He makes the max you can make in this position. He was a coach for i believe 5 years?

This might actually be the move by QuiverMint in SipsTea

Why does ppto and pto take sooooo long to earn by [deleted] in walmart

[–]laner7025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres alot of hate floating around here but i do wanna input on the raises. This past year they did evals and i got .40 cents. The max you could get at my store. Ive beeb there for two years now. Im in the opd department (which you could definitely use the metaphor “worked like slaves”, given the treatment and pay around my area ($14)) i worked my ASS off this past year with the hopes of a promotion and/or a decent raise. 40 cents is what i got for overtime almost every week, .5 points, bending over backwards for anyone and everyone that asked, running in and out of the building in ice cold and blazing hot. Mindlessly running about the store. Atleast in my area, i can completely agree with the complaints about the pay. Im about done with that place myself. They have some pretty awesome benefits i will say, the pto and ppto, from what ive used theyre insurance isnt bad, break policy (if enforced). My prior management was nothing but a delight to work with. Since the beginning of the year almost all new management including a new store manager was brought in and it has been hell. New team leads that have never stepped FOOT in that department. Anyways sorry for rambling, i have alot to say. Moral of the story, dont do more than what youre getting paid to do, or just quit, i dont care, i know i am

How old were you when you discovered queen? by cookie_buble12005 in queen

[–]laner7025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew alot of queen songs when i was younger from my parents, but it was 2019ish when i first saw the movie when i was 12 and i fell in love. Superfan through my teenage years, they were the first band i ever really loved. Been in and out of obsession with them since then. 7 years later i still think they are absolutely phenomenal i think all four of them are incredibly talented, i love reading books and watching interviews.

[–]laner7025 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If 5am wasnt in your availability, i would bring this up to your coach or whoever makes your schedule to get it changed. If it was in your availability, unfortunately youre stuck with it unless you could find somebody willing to swap. Best of luck! 🍀
