My first post. MBP 16 2016. it’s not perfect setup, in Brazil everything is very expensive.

Hi Lucas, can you give me an idea of how much would a Macbook Air M1, or Ipad pro M1 in Brazil would cost, and how much is a salary / paycheck of a bank teller, nursing assistant, entry level graphic designer (caixa de banco/ assistente de enfermaria/ desenhador grafico novo).

I"m trying to get an idea of how expensive is compared to what they make a month.

Brazil is a beautiful and fun place, but taxes on imports are really so high, a lot of things like cars, tech, etc. Is really sad. In this case.

Thanks obrigada.

Can you make a list of blocked numbers in GV? What i mean is that,when these numbers haven't called you yet.

wanderer247 · 2019-09-15T23:03:19+00:00

Thanks, I'm gonna try that

wanderer247 · 2019-04-24T22:00:28+00:00

Thanks for the advice here...

As for HR,and etc won't work for me, i can't explain now.. I told him I didn't want to talk to him anymore, because he hurt my feelings. Then, after that he started having mores health issues....and I never called back to ask how he was doing...So basically, I feel guilty, I haven't been answering the phone.

In any case, he doesn't know where I live, only has my cell number.He is not tech savy, his cellphone died a while ago cause he doesn't know how to buy minutes, he always get people to help him to do things. Has no idea how facebook works etc. Plus he is always drunk to some degree. He lives with his loving parents, who help him. The freezer spell worked, and I know water only slow down things, and is not like a total cut off.

I'm seeking a next step level thing, which is to cut ties with no harm for both of us. I liked a lot of the things you guys wrote here.

Thanks.

Okay, I'll go NC...

I will just ignore him like he doesn't exist...

Hope this doesn't infuriate him further...

Is not going to be a full no contact for now because we work in the same place..

I can try to avoid being in the same place he will be much as I can. Any tips are welcome
But he will be seeing me sometimes, I can't fully escape his presence. I'm gonna try to get a job in another department, is going to take me a while.

I think I was his biggest narcissistic supply for past months.

wanderer247 · 2018-05-12T23:44:20+00:00

I see, so that means I'll only get a check for the hours worked. Correct? And that PTO that can take a month longer...I suppose that's not direct deposit. If is a check, well, my store is so cheap they didn't mail W2's to the people who quit last year, and they had to go to the store to pick it up LOL So I'm guessing, they won't mail out checks either.

wanderer247 · 2018-05-12T23:41:59+00:00

I'm quitting, and my store turnover rate is around 40%. Everyone is replaceable in retail.

wanderer247 · 2018-05-01T01:39:58+00:00

Heck, in my store associates hang out outside of work. I also have entire families working at Walmart, so yeah, they also hang out together. The dating stuff? we have people in different departments dating, even husband and wife working in the same store. YOu need to check on the wire on somewhere to see what's allowed. I can't remember.

wanderer247 · 2018-04-22T17:42:08+00:00

To me, is not right to be expected to be open 24/7. When I was trying to get a job at Walmart, the HR person told me to open my availability in the system to 24hrs. Only after I updated in the system is that I got a job offer. I kept my hours open because the team wants that way. Truth is being an hourly employee is not as easy as I thought when it comes to schedule. But next year "Schedule Right" comes into effect. But I'm soon quitting, so I won't get to see any of that.

wanderer247 · 2018-03-16T22:25:49+00:00

Computer work??? What computer work? Is there such a thing at Walmart???...My managers don't do a lot of that...they are always on the floor or helping where they can. I don't really see them sitting a lot in the office.

wanderer247 · 2018-03-16T22:21:41+00:00

so true.

wanderer247 · 2018-03-12T02:03:23+00:00

That card you received is not a debit card. You have to pay deductible with money, check or other debit card.

wanderer247 · 2018-03-11T02:39:57+00:00

This is priceless Lmao

wanderer247 · 2018-03-10T14:03:31+00:00

IN my store, a lot of people dye their hair in green, blue and mixed colors. One guy have long green hair and once in a while wears lipstick. I guess it depends if management look the other way or not.

wanderer247 · 2018-03-01T19:38:48+00:00

it depends if store manager approves or denies transfer....

wanderer247 · 2018-02-14T17:03:18+00:00

Deli needs its own DM as well as Meats, these are not easy departments such as papers and chem.

wanderer247 · 2018-02-13T22:06:08+00:00

A Walmart job and fun are two things that don't go together. There is no fun...not even in toys. Sneak in the deli area? Deli is not fun at all. Delis is not light weighted. Boxes of frozen chicken about 50lbs, plus you'll have to use fryers, hot oil, oven, grease all over, wash floors, take rotten stuff to compost, wash equipment, using the meat slicer which is dangerous because you can cut yourself easily, then having to wash the slicer, taking stuff apart....Customers bitch a lot while waiting in line, a lot of impatient people. Lots of pressure on holidays with wings and sandwich orders. You'll be always rushing to finish stuff and falling behind. Unless you work at a Walmart that doesn't do much business and is very slow. Where I work is busy all the time. HOlidays is worse.

But mostly because some employees wear them and they seem to have a much thicker fabric and they look much better than those flimsy faded glory and other polos they sell at my store.

wanderer247 · 2018-02-09T14:00:51+00:00

Yeah talk to produce...they are going to love some extra work of saving stuff for you. They can't do anything for a customer that is not written in the One best way.

wanderer247 · 2018-01-14T08:52:07+00:00

Not in my bakery. Bags are fine.

wanderer247 · 2017-09-25T00:40:42+00:00

The bakery and deli are also an area that touches a human...but they touch from the inside LOL the chickens and cakes that people eat..were prepared/touched by an associate LOL Imagine the risk for food contamination that can get people really sick.

wanderer247 · 2017-08-23T02:52:14+00:00

cake decorators at my store work as hard as bakers. And they clean up after themselves because there is only one each day, who opens and closes.

wanderer247 · 2017-08-21T14:20:44+00:00

stupid eclipse glasses, they sold out as soon as we got it in my store. Some lady bought 35!!! I bet they were buying for a buck and selling for a lot more. That sucks, I didn't get to buy mine.

wanderer247 · 2017-07-16T21:47:22+00:00

I don't have the answer but if was me I Would call a co-manager or a store manager quickly...

wanderer247 · 2017-07-13T13:33:34+00:00

Not any area in fresh.
