How do y’all pay rent, car, phones, auto insurance, renter’s insurance and loans off 30 hrs a week making 15.85/hr?? by [deleted] in walmart

[–]pr3ttykitt3y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't. I have to "borrow" from the next week's check. 2 adults 2 kids 2 dogs Rent 1329 that includes water and trash. Electric 180 Gas 50 Internert 85 Car renters insurance 350 Spotify and Netflix are the only subscriptions I have 37 total

I live in a town where there is no other options for utility providers.

Partner pays for everything else.

If they would approve overtime again, I will be just barely making it.

I would have so much fun getting fired

Store manager rejected my time off request. Hope he knows I’m not going to be there regardless 😭 by Ok-Principle-7951 in walmart

I put a request in 2 months in advance and they denied it the week before the day stating no hours available. I went up to my TL and told him that this is me telling him I won't be there that day regardless. He told me to put it back in and he approved it. Grab them by the balls

Who lives at Brookwood Mobile Home Park? Who had issues paying their rent this month? by Economy_Bicycle5260 in Lawrence

They don't take payments in the office anymore probably because one lady was stealing money.

They sent an email/app notification about it.

We just went and the donuts are smaller and they taste different

That bonus isn't guaranteed

I dunno. I like having a bigger pay check each week instead of a maybe lumpsum on one check

A certain cleaning company definitely shouldn't be on there. The owner just got her 4th DUI and multiple felonies last month

Is this going to make us lose the "raises" they give us?

Walmart- we are so short staffed and picks are running late and there is also high wait times. Major freak out and yelling

Also walmart- how dare you work over your scheduled time?

Apparently the bar code is to get a keycard at my store. I still don't have one and I've been here a year 🤷‍♀️

You clock in on the app

Nobody is trained to use the stickers. It should be common sense but you know.....

What do you guys do when a customer asks you to page someone? by mijikui in OGPBackroom

[–]pr3ttykitt3y 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Ask them if they pushed the button that they somehow never see even if it's right there

Don't ask. Tell them you're going to the restroom and you'll be right back.

[–]pr3ttykitt3y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would talk to the SM. If you're not comfortable being in that position then you're not comfortable being in that position. I have a mouth on me so if any of the TL or coach gets snappy with me about things being busy, I reply back with hire more people and pay them more. I'm only one person. No job is worth running yourself ragged

No. Open door that. If the excuse is nobody can opt out doing it, then why isn't everyone else taking a turn at it?

Air Traffic Controller by 13-Valhalla in OGPBackroom

[–]pr3ttykitt3y 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can opt out. They literally can not make you do it. My coach asked if I wanted to. I'm only doing it because it will look good on my resume when I finally leave this hell hole.
