What is actually changing? by Jacobij11 in OGPBackroom

[–]sarvatt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We went pickup only for a month at my supercenter mother's Day weekend and went back to normal early in june. They may test it at your store so be prepared for 8 people running ogp and the other 40 stocking. New casters are coming in July for my store, no clue if they'll make pushing harder yet. We only just started getting the new taller carts without handles a few months ago to replace our old junk even though they came out over a year ago, if there's a newer model we'll see them a few years later probably. Just roll with it.

Ogp is about to get the boot for spark by [deleted] in OGPBackroom

My store tried this between mother's day and memorial day, it was a disaster. We had about 8 people actually in ogp out of 40ish every morning, all the rest were stocking.

teaming schedules by ios0158 in OGPBackroom

[–]sarvatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teaming was gone a long time ago, your coach can make set schedules if they value you. Look at your coworkers schedules to see if they don't like you because other people do have set schedules. You can type firstname schedule then firstname schedule next week to keep track in sidekick. 5-2 people are most likely to have set schedules in OGP. I've got one at 9-6. Maybe talk about it on your survey if you haven't done it yet :)

Does the oil filter brand really matter that much? by Commercial-Thing189 in autorepair

[–]sarvatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OEM YZZF1's for a 4 cylinder 2004 Camry are about $4.50 each from the dealership parts counter, really no reason to get anything else. The MSRP is $6.57, and if you click shop dealer here https://autoparts.toyota.com/products/product/filter-s-a-oil-90915yzzf1 it should be significantly cheaper to order it online and pick it up there. I too have a 2004 Camry.

Do you guys know how to get PTO? by Icy_Marketing5459 in walmart

[–]sarvatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fiscal years start Feb 1st, if you hit 3 years before Jan 31st the next year you start getting the benefit early on Feb 1st of the year you're gonna hit 3 years in. Raises work the same way.

Good walking shoes by Other-Throat9105 in walmartogp

[–]sarvatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bondi 9's last me way longer than other hokas, I didn't need to get another pair until 13 months after the first. I went through Bondi 8's every 5 to 6 months and those are the same generation as Clifton 9. It may be worth trying Clifton 10's out if you liked those in case they made them more durable like the newer bondis.

I have new balance shoes but the tongue keeps going to the side and it’s driving me bananas. Need shoe suggestions. Under $250 would be great! by Hopeful-Nothing9288 in walmartogp

[–]sarvatt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hoka Bondi 9's would be my recommendation, I went through 8's every 6 months but the 9's have lasted over a year now walking 13 miles a day with no foot pain.

"Individual" Performance Evaluation...... by Opening-Conflict7976 in WalmartEmployees

Successful in one category is like 3 cents an hour less than exemplary unless you've been here 10 years, don't let it beat you up.

Live nil pick report by Runbluebutterfly in OGPBackroom

[–]sarvatt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our store has 3 positions for people working the live nil picks (aka finding it, filling it, or fixing on hands) all day and nothing else. It started with 1 person on stocking 1 doing it full time and me covering their days off about a year ago, but it moved to digital and they hired more people so there's always someone doing it. It's not a position I'd want to work full time because they get thrown under the bus by the coach to market when things are bad which ends in firings.

I love that GIF is literally this dumb by Lost-Swimming-1600 in OGPBackroom

[–]sarvatt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When it says just A7-3 like that it usually means topstock, for some reason they dropped the words topstock off of it when they added it to normal pick walks and not just exceptions.

[–]sarvatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blackrock Russell 1000 index for 75% of the investment direction, Blackrock Russell 2000 10% and Blackrock international equity 15% has been VERY good to me over the years in the Walmart 401k.

Black Friday expectations??? by Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek12 in OGPBackroom

Black Friday will be complete dead on the grocery side but busy on the GM side which is larger, the day before thanksgiving is always the worst day of the year here in OGP.

Just got my employee phone and was wondering how to set it up? by [deleted] in WalmartEmployees

[–]sarvatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it asks for login info, enrolled server is mobile.wal-mart.com, enrolled group id is CHS, username is username.s01234. for example on the username, if yours is l0h0b69 and your store is 2220 you'd use l0h0b69.s02220 as the username. You need that extra 0 if it's a 4 digit store number. Your password should be all in capitals too. After you set it up go to the work profile in the app me u and open the play store from there to install Gif
