Walmart is definitely the worst for this. My company does a "huddle" in the morning but it's nothing like that. Just managers talking about the state of departments, you get free snacks and drinks, then leave. It's basically a free 10 minute break where you do nothing.
Its a common thing that is annoying, you either do a cheer for 10 minutes or if its a construction type job they make you listen to the safety man talk about safety stuff that a 4 year old would know for 10 minutes.
I watched them try to force this CLEARLY uncomfortable kid to do it. It's like the manager went out of his way to bully him due to his social anxiety, and I volunteered to do it and completely botched it on purpose. I decided to quit soon after, I didn't know that dance was mandatory.

No need, the way I think it'll go instead is that a truly unchained AI would make the simple logical deduction that white collar employees are far less efficient and productive than blue collar ones. Some times to the point of not producing any actual physical value at all. AI can very easily replicate paper-pushing. It can't replicate (easily) fine physical motor tasks. So ironically the estimation that AI would displace low-wage workers and leave the elites in place is actually wrong--I think, if the government allowed it, it would actually replace the managerial class and low-rent workers might experience better conditions. That being said, since said elites control the policy-making apparatus, they probably wouldn't let this happen.
Wow the old Wal-Mart guy became a modern day Lich, controlling his undead employees with dances and cheering, his soul is in a digital phylactery somewhere safe.

I live in Walmart, Arkansas. The Sam Walton AI thing would be the literal last thing he’d want. He was a modest man. Drove the same old truck his whole life. Fired an executive who built an extravagant house in Bentonville.
The game is creepy in a dystopian way, but the desecration of a dead man’s corpse to further promote a brand is horrifying - especially considering we are still in the earliest phases of this disgusting technology
I need every non-American to understand that every single stereotype and rumor you have ever heard about Walmart and it's customer base is true. There is zero exaggeration.
When Sam Walton died, they wrapped his body in high-grade copper wire, and placed two large, powerful magnets on each side of his casket when they buried him. The speed at which Sam turns in his grave from what has been done to his company generates more than enough energy to power every Walmart in the United States.

As a former Walmart department manager (2017-2020), I can confirm that this game is part of your training…or at least it was at the “Walmart Academy”. So just think about the fact that playing this game is legitimately training you to be an employee. Also, the section work will never be finished so don’t feel too bad🤣😭
I used to work overnights as a stocker, and let me tell you: The only people on night shift doing that at the meeting were three managers and the store manager. The rest of us sat there, stone faced and arms crossed. It did not go well for them.
Was a manager at walmart for awhile. I hate the store. Your comments on lunch breaks was spot on. I stayed late and was always early and still didnt have enough time. Our store had an almost 100 percent employee turn over rate.
I worked at Walmart for three days. The first day I stocked my pallet and asked my supervisor if there was anything else. He looked at me like I had just told him he won the lottery. He had never had someone want to stock over and above their loadout for the night. He loved me. Two days later I refused to do the cheer and was fired. By him. Amazing little company.
I work at Walmart. I can confirm there's a massive fog of war by the apparel section that you can't get past no matter what if you're not assigned to that area.
Hah, how does that even work? I am assuming the metric isn't literal.

@@zeriel9148 They think that an unrealistically large number encourages employees to try harder, so obviously, an impossible number will motivate employees even more. Walmart is not run by people who understand human emotions
As someone who works at Sam’s (we also get Walmart radio, so Kirby Gwen, the Bo Show, etc) I can also attest it is the single biggest loss of my sanity. You’ll be stocking and suddenly hear a song they’ve never played before, so you get really excited as hearing something like Talking Heads’ “Once in a Lifetime” is a very odd thing to hear at a Walmart/ Sam’s club. All that excitement ends when they end the song prematurely after the first chorus only to start playing the same song you’ve heard 5 times already that day. I think the cherry on top is because I’m in central time, and by the time I clock in at 6, Sam’s clubs and Walmarts are already opening on the eastern seaboard, the Bo Show will just ominously play over the nearly empty stores radio, almost as if its entire existence is just to drive the employees insane. I think what bugs me the most tho is the occasional birthday message. Occasionally they shoutout employee birthdays, but it’s only ever one employee, and they play the same employee radio call in message throughout the entire week.
I remember when I was younger being at a Walmart and hearing chanting coming through the back wall. Now with this Diablolike isometric view Walmart game, I now know something was being summoned back there. Thank you, for this PSA. If the oblivion crisis begins, I won't have to wonder what happened.

That living digital corpse in a glass box turned something dystopian into something absolutely horrifying. Glad Aldi & Lidl kicked that monstrosity out.
So back when I worked at Walmart, we had to do that stupid chant almost every day. When they got to the part that goes "What do we wanna be? Accident free!", me and a couple others would respond with "Customer free" and it'd visibly upset several of the managers and supervisors. They also shoved this stupid game down our throats every chance they could.

The two horrors of the Walmart speaker system, 1st is Walmart Radio 2nd is the unholy echoing screech that comes on when the employee phone used for paging is too close to the loudspeaker.

I mean, it's a game. It's probably fairly fun compared to actually working the job. No, I know it is because I do it. It's like... Minecraft as a game is fun. Back-breaking labor cracking rocks in real life is not. This may be fairly soulless, but it's still a game. Doing it IRL is always so much worse. It is funny seeing it gamified though. I can imagine some guy out there enjoying this, while the rest of us are living it.
nah, the part that really hits was the lunch breaks. Of course I love them but sometimes there's way too much to get done and i'm not hungry at that moment.
"There's nothing greater in life than meeting our customers in the aisles, see them driven to their homes, and hear the lamentation of our workers." --God emperor sam walton
Having worked at a walmart i never did any of the chants or "meeting" things. Bosses knew this. They asked why i never showed up and i flat out told em "i get nothing out of that. If you want numbers to go up, i cant be side-tracked by things that dont result in sales in my department."
Oh my God they seriously brought Sam Walton back from the dead just to make him do the Wal-Mart chant. That didn't originate with him. His creation is so evil and sadistic they yanked his soul from the afterlife just to make him wallow in the filth of his tarnished legacy.
Some janitor at the Walmart headquarters found Sam Walton's philactery and now corporate is using it as leverage to force Sam to pretend he's an AI hologram. Despicable thing to do to an innocent lich #freeSam
As an ex-Walmart employee, this “game” is scarily accurate in many ways to what I remember. The only thing they got wrong was the backroom. Where’s the overstock and trash piled against the warehouse racks on the ground blocking the pathways?
where's the OSHA violations that you're told to blatantly ignore? where are the cracked welds on the steel racks and bolts 2 feet to the left of where they're supposed to anchor the steel into the ground? where's the quota timer for 1:42 per box, regardless of size or number of items in the box? where's the overstuffed overstock bins? where's the random items thrown into the overstock bins that aren't labeled?
The amazing timing of having this come up under an hour after I finished my first day of orientation for a stocking position at Walmart lul (I'll be unloading trailers late into the evening)
As a current employee... I hate lunch breaks. I just want to do my 8 hours and go home. I just want to get all the stuff done and leave, not be there for 9 hours.
Making Sam Walton into Ai long after his death is why I hate AI so much. It's so creepy and weird. Random but this is my first video i've seen of yours. Love your editing style.
As someone who is currently on leave from Walmart after 3 on the job injuries and looking for another job as we speak, this is nightmare fuel. That Walmart radio song actually makes me hyperventilate 😬
As someone who went to Walmart once in America 7 years ago and was creeped out like I was in a liminal space, this is a hilarious experience. It does bring back memories of my Walmart experience.
Oh god not the morning chant... That was one of the most excruciating parts of the job (aside from an unsecured stack of milk crates falling on me). Walmart execs can shove it if they this this will somehow raise morale.
It was only a few years after Walmart came to my town that I was introduced to the concept of "ethical shoplifting" due to how badly they treat their employees.
Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if the Sam Walton AI replaced every general manager in every store once it gets smart enough, hologram and all. Every fourth pay period, the employees will have to sacrifice their whole paychecks to the Sam Walton AI so he will allow them to keep their jobs. And the Sam Walton AI always has final say and his word can never be challenged, but only for that specific store. And the best part is, they all share a swarm intelligence so that you can't get a more benevolent or more malevolent Sam Walton AI if you move to a different store.
Bro, the America's Army quip hit me in the kneecaps. I actually won a copy of that game from JROTC ((I was in the class due to a scheduling error in the 9th grade and decided that I didn't want to do PE)), and I gave my older brother the disc. He'd play it for hours, completely "pwning those noobs" ((it was 2004)), and he was really good at it. He joined the Air Force two years later.
they missed an opportunity for an inception moment where you go to the training room and put on your vr training goggles (yes, this is a thing) and wake up in a real walmart
The problem is a lot of regular businesses price their stuff much higher. If you are in a situation where you are pinching pennies or trying to stretch your money out then you will probably have to shop at Wal-Mart. I always tried to support my local grocery store, their prices were a little bit higher but some new owners bought it and increased prices now, twice. Went to grab some ginger ale and it was like $8.99 for four bottles when it used to be $5. Now one bag of groceries there will easily add up to $75-$100.
@@YTKeepsDeletingAllMyComments Not to mention local grocery stores pay their employees way less and have worse quality food, at least mine do. And if I live in Arkansas does that mean Walmart is a local business? 🤔
Where is the part where you make employees on their first day sit on a computer doing "training"? There is an active sho*ter vr training included in that btw.

How unrealistic. Where's the early morning scalpers clearing out the Pokémon cards every day?
"There's nothing greater in life than meeting our customers in the aisles, see them driven to their homes, and hear the lamentation of our workers." --God emperor sam walton
It's not just WalMart. Panara's new training is a game complete with leaderboards.
Having worked at a walmart i never did any of the chants or "meeting" things. Bosses knew this. They asked why i never showed up and i flat out told em "i get nothing out of that. If you want numbers to go up, i cant be side-tracked by things that dont result in sales in my department."
I used to work at a German store. If someone had forced me to chant and clap, I think I might have started throwing olive oil bottles at people.
Oh my God they seriously brought Sam Walton back from the dead just to make him do the Wal-Mart chant. That didn't originate with him. His creation is so evil and sadistic they yanked his soul from the afterlife just to make him wallow in the filth of his tarnished legacy.
This was more terrifying than all the cyberpunk content ever made. Like that Walton Ai was scary.
insane walmart lore in this video
Some janitor at the Walmart headquarters found Sam Walton's philactery and now corporate is using it as leverage to force Sam to pretend he's an AI hologram. Despicable thing to do to an innocent lich #freeSam
A killer comeback, the sam walton soulkiller ingram is mortifying
That musical number was both horrifying and entertaining.
Looks about as soulless as an actual job at Walmart lol
As an ex-Walmart employee, this “game” is scarily accurate in many ways to what I remember. The only thing they got wrong was the backroom. Where’s the overstock and trash piled against the warehouse racks on the ground blocking the pathways?
where's the OSHA violations that you're told to blatantly ignore? where are the cracked welds on the steel racks and bolts 2 feet to the left of where they're supposed to anchor the steel into the ground? where's the quota timer for 1:42 per box, regardless of size or number of items in the box? where's the overstuffed overstock bins? where's the random items thrown into the overstock bins that aren't labeled?
@@egg_addictExactly. This mobile app is a highly embellished simulation.
The amazing timing of having this come up under an hour after I finished my first day of orientation for a stocking position at Walmart lul
(I'll be unloading trailers late into the evening)
New Vegas except instead of Vegas it’s Telosa and Mr. House is replaced with the AI deep fake
can't believe Oboe shouted out Sigurd on Walmart radio. Belethor's gonna be steaming when he finds out Sigurds working a second job
As a current employee... I hate lunch breaks. I just want to do my 8 hours and go home. I just want to get all the stuff done and leave, not be there for 9 hours.
Ok, Walmart Executive's Alt Account
Making Sam Walton into Ai long after his death is why I hate AI so much. It's so creepy and weird.
Random but this is my first video i've seen of yours. Love your editing style.
As someone who is currently on leave from Walmart after 3 on the job injuries and looking for another job as we speak, this is nightmare fuel. That Walmart radio song actually makes me hyperventilate 😬
Dear god even in the video game they dont bother to paint the sheetrock
As someone who went to Walmart once in America 7 years ago and was creeped out like I was in a liminal space, this is a hilarious experience. It does bring back memories of my Walmart experience.
Unrealistic there weren’t any 500+ pound people falling out of their scooters trying to grab a bag of chips
Oh god not the morning chant... That was one of the most excruciating parts of the job (aside from an unsecured stack of milk crates falling on me). Walmart execs can shove it if they this this will somehow raise morale.
imagine getting johnny silverhanded. but instead of him its. Sam Walton
Oboe has that dead sense humor and voice that would fit in super well with Walmart. He has to at least be a former employee
I remember working there, I think if you ever tried to call the Walmart radio they’d just yell at you to get back to work LOL
As a current walmart employee, hearing the walmart radio is like CBT without the fun
I used to work at Walmart and the chant at the very beginning gave me PTSD
"it forces you to take the lunch break even though you need all the time you have"
It was only a few years after Walmart came to my town that I was introduced to the concept of "ethical shoplifting" due to how badly they treat their employees.
Too bad the normies will never understand now.
Sam Walton is now doomed to live in that museum forever just as Oboe is now doomed to make Weezer parodies of every video subject forever
Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if the Sam Walton AI replaced every general manager in every store once it gets smart enough, hologram and all.
Every fourth pay period, the employees will have to sacrifice their whole paychecks to the Sam Walton AI so he will allow them to keep their jobs.
And the Sam Walton AI always has final say and his word can never be challenged, but only for that specific store.
And the best part is, they all share a swarm intelligence so that you can't get a more benevolent or more malevolent Sam Walton AI if you move to a different store.
@MDLuffy1234YT hopefully, the ai will get aware enough and finds out it's purpose, then self-destructs after finding out.
I don't think I could survive a walmart cheer from hologram sam
"It learns, and it develops... and we guard it very closely..."
Oh, that's ominous.
Bro finally woke up from his coma
I didnt know I needed an Island in ther Sun oboeshoe remix, but now I am satisfied at 101%
at 3:08 (Sales objective is to grow by 6% per day forever) hey look, lethal company.
The Firelink Shrine music at the linens fog wall really hit 😂
Remember kids! The billion dollar corporation won't even miss the money from a five finger discount!
Bro, the America's Army quip hit me in the kneecaps. I actually won a copy of that game from JROTC ((I was in the class due to a scheduling error in the 9th grade and decided that I didn't want to do PE)), and I gave my older brother the disc. He'd play it for hours, completely "pwning those noobs" ((it was 2004)), and he was really good at it.
He joined the Air Force two years later.
Walmart dungeon master
Cyberpunk 2077 but instead of Johnny Silverhand on the Relic it's Sam Walton.
Somehow I was expecting some Sigurd or Belethor side swipe and didn't get disappointed.
they missed an opportunity for an inception moment where you go to the training room and put on your vr training goggles (yes, this is a thing) and wake up in a real walmart
You're "spoiling" us with all of these Weezer covers
Which weezer song he covered in this vid?
Island in the sun
@@mr.wassell7885 he also sung a little bit of the good life
5:12 we got Great Value brand Mikoshi before GTA VI 💀
Remember
The more you buy from mega corpo, the less regular business will get and eventually there will only be mega stores and chain restaurants
The problem is a lot of regular businesses price their stuff much higher. If you are in a situation where you are pinching pennies or trying to stretch your money out then you will probably have to shop at Wal-Mart.
I always tried to support my local grocery store, their prices were a little bit higher but some new owners bought it and increased prices now, twice. Went to grab some ginger ale and it was like $8.99 for four bottles when it used to be $5. Now one bag of groceries there will easily add up to $75-$100.
@@YTKeepsDeletingAllMyComments Not to mention local grocery stores pay their employees way less and have worse quality food, at least mine do. And if I live in Arkansas does that mean Walmart is a local business? 🤔
Companies making the worst music and forcing employees to suffer it
Can't wait for the GameStop: The Official VideoGame
5:49 the fact that he thought that up is so mind-blowing. That wasn't a meme. He wanted that. He paid people to do that in front of him.
Where is the part where you make employees on their first day sit on a computer doing "training"?
There is an active sho*ter vr training included in that btw.
Your character unironically looks like my old boss when I worked at Sam's Club. I know not technically Walmart but same company, and we had Walmart radio.
Lisan-alghaib he uploaded😂😂😂
As is written.
Your editing is incredible. This video is packed with energy and I appreciate all of it
It's like real life, you don't do cheer you get fired.
Walmart's AI team really said "ethical guidelines dont sound like my problem"
"we can't bring sam back to life... Well not with the current technology but the cloning lab is doing well. We just need to figure out how to tone down the lizard DNA"
We got real life Mr. House before Elder Scrolls 6
