I wish more people knew about the atrocities that Walmart commits. It's truly a horrible company these days. Nothing like what the founder set out for it to be.
MushaGundamMKIII ya there trying to run out smaller stores in my area but it's not working so A+ u don't know they have some stuff no one else has tho :[
Recipe for hot lemon tea (it really works for dealing with a cold) 1. Lemons 2. Half cup of sugar 3. 8 cups of water( For big pot/ use as many cups as you deem necessary) 4. Theraflu (use night time if you are making it before going to bed, Daytime if not) 5. Honey (Not honey flavored syrup) Step one take a big or medium sized pot and fill it half way. Second: take some lemons and slice them up and squeeze the juice out of them into the water then put the lemon slices in. Third: take your sugar and pour it in. Fourth: take a pack of theraflu and pour it in. Fourth add lots of honey. Fith: Set pot on stove top and stir until tea comes to a boil. Now that tea is hot and the sugar and other has devolved pour in heat resistant glass (Glass that wont shatter in your hand when boiling liquid hits it) And add a few lemon slices in with it. Then Begin to sip and eat the lemon. After you had enough removes the lemons from the tea so it wont become bitter and store it in refrigerator (Don't let it sit too long) It has always worked for me and my dad hope it does the same for you.
your awesome comment made me reply for the first time in.. a decade? I almost thought this was a joke comment until i realized it was to help with his cold!
Dude, no way . My first job was at Walmart. I agree on what you said about how Walmart is a shitty company. When I worked there, I was determined to do a great job, do all my tasks, help customers at the electronics dept. but then I realized that my coworkers didn't care about doing their job, they would take long breaks and my manager and store mananger didn't do shit to make them stop. What I also didn't like about is the stress. I could go on and on about my year working at Walmart but i don't want to remind myself.....oh yeah and the lack of employees made the job more stressful
MrChickenspit I worked as a cashier there and we were the bitches. I was a stupid so I would work night on the weekdays and if I was scheduled till 11PM on Friday then I'd have to be there at 7AM the next day. They treated us like dirt
Walmart in a nutshell: Worker: My leg has been cut off! Walmart: don't care get back to work Worker: The world is ending I need to get into a vault! Walmart: who cares those can of beans won't stack them self. Worker: BUT THE BOMB JUST HIT Walmart: I DON'T CARE IF THE WORLD IS ENDING YOU NEVER YELL AT ME AGA.... .... World ended
+Anthony Perna dude when I went in for my interview where I work now they asked what I make and promptly offered me several dollars above it. I bust my ass for the companies I work for, there have only been 2 I hated. Wal-Mart and GameStop. Which both you can find a plethora of former employees who hate it. I loved my time with Verizon FiOS. Wal-Mart is the only job I never made it a year at. Also the only one I ever left with out another job lined up.
+Anthony Perna I definitely try, but I got a family to support. TH-cam has evolved into a amazing second source of income. Not near where my job is. But who knows in time this could become full time.
I used to work for Walmart as a janitor and then got fired fur using a helping hand tool to pick up trash outside in the parking lot and the grass and I was doing it a lot faster then if I bent over and picking it up and just to let you guys know I would be the only person outside doing the hole outside and that includes empty the trash cans and no matter how fast I was it was never good enough for them and I never got a so much if a thank you or good job or we appreciate you . And when my wife had to go to the ER when I was working I told them that I was leaving to take her there and they told me if I did I would be wrote up for leaving on my scheduled day and that I would get a point on me like they don't even care about your family
Wal-Mart is a cesspool of shit. I live near one and it sucks. Bad customer service, half the lanes are always closed, the self-checkouts lock up, and they're always out of stock of what you need.
Yeah, but the worst part of it, is Electronics. If you want to get an item like flash drives or a pack of DVDs, you have to go stand in line for nearly ten minutes just to get someone to unlock the cage and get an item for you before you pay it up. I don't know about Target's policies when it comes to that stuff...
I can't step foot in one. Not just because I'll be arrested for trespassing, but because I'd tear that shit to hell! They'd be so torn up I'd end up in prison for all the damage I'd do!
Worked there for 5 years. I lost respect after I heard their managers meetings where they said a paralyzed guy was faking it cause he got out of his wheelchair by pulling himself, made fun of a tourettes guy studerring, and made fun of a heavier chick
I was told while working at Walmart to greet everyone in my aisle with a hello, a smile and look at them and ask if they needed help but I also got in trouble for doing that
@@BPGRYT Walton ran it differently. He was proud to have everything Made In America in his store, but now you're lucky if you can find more than a dozen things made in America there!
Wal-Mart triggers my anxiety, so I avoid it typically. Although because my Wal-Mart is in the same plaza as my GameStop, I always stop in during pre-release to see if there's free stuff from it. Soul Calibur V I got a free SCV Shirt and hadn't even preordered, they just gave it to people in their tournament, and Black Ops 2 I got to play for 2 hours while I waited on GameStop to start releasing copies.
I worked for those scum 6 years... I was an overnight stocker (before the super center)... I watched them systematically get rid of people who were there 10 years or more. After 2 years working there I saw how disgusting the company is and everyone else I worked with warned me... So why did I stay 4 more years there? Cuz I loved most of the people I worked with... We were stuck in hell and made the best of it. We were overnights so we hated the daytime stockers who were called ICS (we said it stood for "I Can't Stock" lol)... Anyway I slipped on water... Tore ligaments in my knee... Workmans Comp... After 6 years of Exceeds including Stocker of the month... I was to be brought back as a door greeter and when time came my wage would substantially reduced. I am now on Walmarts "Black List"...anyway you have your GameStop horror stories that I enjoy watching; I have my Walmart horror stories... Watching your channel is like Therapy lol. Thank You and Keep It Up
There's a Walmart down the street from where I live and I hate going there there's time when I go to another one that's nicer just to stay away from it. I even applied to work near the one I live and got told $7.25 an hour when I heard that I just hanged up the phone.
Not trying to dismiss your points at all, just wanted to add some personal input. My girlfriend worked with Wal-Mart for 6 months and sometimes she wouldn't want to take a lunch because she didn't bring any or wasn't hungry or whatever reason and they would force her to because they have to. But they also promised a small pay raise after 6 months of employment and when that rolled around, they told her that they changed it. That she had to wait because "she still had stuff to do". She quit because of that and how negative the work environment is. Everyone was always miserable and talking about each other behind their backs, and the customers were often times very toxic as well.
I am a former employee of Walmart and I absolutely despised my time there. They treat their employees like crap, you aren't paid worth crap, they will write you up for no reason at all, and will constantly praise bad work methods if it gets the job done faster. I'm glad I got out of there, and I hate having to shop there because my dinky ass town doesn't any other retail centers nearby. As a side note I think it's hilarious that you worked for Verizon FiOS, a job I also did for several years. I was in their Price-up and retention depts.
TheHockeyShockey I try to be a nice person and a good worker, but staff and customers do not appreciate my efforts......I'm having anxiety attacks at work. If I need a price check, etc, a lot of times I have to wait several minutes.....does not make for happy customers. Time to say au revoir to Walmart before I have a total nervous breakdown.
I agree with you very much about Walmart. I have also worked for them and it sucked. I also have alot of trouble retuning anything I buy there if it is broken.
As a former Wal-Mart employee I feel your pain. I worked receiving for over a year. When I started we only had 2 cart pushers and one of them got fired right around Christmas time so we were called up front to push carts quite often. It was quite frustrating, especially when we had a really big load to unload.
I can confirm that helping a customer if it interferes with a task is frowned upon if not outright punished. I was there to buy a TV once that was on sale at both Walmart and Best Buy for the same price. Walmart was way closer to where I lived at the time, so it seemed the logical choice. I went in, found the TV, on display and had verified online before that they had a few in stock. None were in boxes on the floor though, and no one was around in the electronics department other than a younger guy who was stocking DVDs on one of the displays. I asked him if he could check to see if they had any in back. He was pretty friendly, and started talking about the TVs as he was on his way back to check for me. Someone that I'm assuming was his supervisor stepped out onto the floor and asked him what he was doing. He said he was helping me, and she told him to get back to stocking the DVDs. He looked up at me with a mix of fear and apology, then said "I'll find someone else to help you" before going back to stocking DVDs. The manager went back into the back while this was going on, and I spent another 15 minutes waiting around for someone to come help me before I walked out of the store and drove across town to Best Buy to get the TV. I'll never go to Walmart for a big purchase again after that.
+Nate Fritz yeah they suck. The staff also gets no training on any of the tech. Went into get a Kindle for my mother in-law, asked the guy running the electronics department for one. He looked at me and asked what's a Kindle. Like cmon I know they aren't great but not knowing what one is.
Our Wal-Mart is in a slightly rural, small town area. Not a lot of traffic (which is nice), good location and kind employees! Never worked at one, but I don't think it'll be a good idea if they're strict on lunch schedules. I have Type-1 diabetes, which may make a lunch break take longer if I have a sugar low... Anywho, I haven't really had too many bad experiences with Wal-Mart.
That's true. However, you should be grateful that you are earning a living, but you shouldn't be grateful that that particular company (regardless of it being a Wal-mart or not) for offering you employment. Especially if you are a U.S. able-bodied citizen with a H.S. Diploma some sort of certification, associates degree, or even a bachelor's. I get that some people end up at these jobs even with these type of post-secondary accolades, but that really doesn't mean you need to stay there. Use them as a stepping stone or something to pay the bills while you continue your job search. Avoid complacency. In a capitalist economy like the U.S., there is absolutely no reason why you or anyone should settle at a company because they gave you a job. Unless, of course, you want the job. Not necessarily need it. Even BPGR realized this and is now in a better position since he left the Wal-mart. It is very possible had he stayed, he would not have made the connection to end up working where he is now.
That home office won't do shit! They're the ones controlling all this! They actually force vendors to sell them goods lower than anyone else by refusing to carry it unless they sell it lower! It's one thing to legitimately buy it lower, but to strong-arm them like that by refusing to carry it unless it's lower than everyone else? BULLSHIT!
My worst Walmart experience has to have been pre ordering Pokemon heart gold/soul silver. I came on release day during around the afternoon. I had to ask around (their employees; customer support-> customer support manager (or whoever was superior) -> etc) In a nutshell on day of release when I arrived they basically got a box from the back and said "whoa look at all these Pokemon games where'd they come from!?" Meaning for half the day nobody was able to get the game.
Only time I ever deal with Walmart stores on location anymore is for buying the occasional card(Netflix, WoW, maybe PS Store), or to load a gift card someone gave me for Christmas one year if I want a specific item to buy on their site without having to go through the hassle of knowing whether they have it physically there or not. Otherwise, I simply go through Amazon to buy things via loading gift cards from my local gas station only a couple blocks away.
+Frogboyattacks very few people love Walmart. I didn't even go into their shady business practices. Do a quick Google search on it. Or you could even search it on TH-cam. These are just my personal reasons why I do not shop there.
Back Pocket Game Reviews i prefer target as they are less shady to me but funny enough sams the one associated with walmart has better customer treatment and just feels better than walmart.
@@BPGRYT you're right, they strong-arm vendors to force them to sell lower than others, which is what's forcing these companies to lower their production costs, thus why so much is made in China now. Walmart will actually withhold items from their shelves unless they can get it lower than everyone else- that is complete bullshit!!
Dude i love your videos man, i can relate alot to your experiences i appreciate you speaking out man a lot of these companies need to be called out on what they do. A lot of us don't have the time to shoot a whole video like you so we appreciate well at least i know i do. Currently working in a call center smh lol.
My brother once handled the carts in the lot. He said he found one in a tree, and another on top of a car. Naturally, I dislike WalMart. His stories only add fuel to that disdain
I feel you my dude. I understand why people think that being in a certain part of town or a certain area will make them feel safe because even I feel that way... but it is so far from the truth. Yeah that concept works better when your talking about neighborhoods but when it comes to shopping plazas and these stores and shit... man anyone could be lurking around there at any given time. It is not illegal for a shady lookin' person to walk around where they choose and of course they are going to think they uppity more well off people are going to be easy targets and not put up a fight and just be willing to give them what they want. You just really have to be safe out here no matter where the hell you at.
Yea we know. WE talk shit about yall too. Get the fuck back to work with that one lane open bullshit. Then have attitude when someone has the gull to ask you a question. God forbid you had to do your job.
i grew to hate wal mart when i worked for Hershey's. They treated me and every other vendor like complete garbage. Up until then, I had been a loyal customer. Like you, i did the majority of my shopping at krogers
I feel you. I worked at wal mart when I was 20 and it was aweful. they told us at orientation to take our lunch inbetween our 5 and 6 hour mark. i got written up for taking it past 5 hours and then was told its between our 4th and 5th hour. I marched to the HR and comfirmed that they said it was 5th and 6th. I then told them I was written up for it. I then got written up for wxpired yogurt. I worked the frozen and dairy department but they told me from now on Ill be scheduled frozen. I was in frozen for a month and and a half and with in that time the yogurt was expired. regardless of where they had me I was written up for it. I tried fighting it but they shifted blame on me anyways. then they constantly scheduled me 4 and a half hours sometimes 5 and a half hour shifts they wanted me to throw out the returns, stock, scan food items in the bins, unload trucks, and devide my time between two departments with in that time. the issue was my wal mart was one of the bigger wal marts, understaffed, and I was scheduled always a half hour before rush hour hit. I couldnt do it all on my own. so I was told they would move me to cart pusher and take a pay decrease if it I didnt shape up. then because the freezer was packed and extremely cold(-30) filled with items that never scanned I would have walk out from time to time to warm up when I was in there for long periods. I got yelled at for it and told I wasnt doing my job. the final nail was when they enforced this rule that for an hour you had to take merchandise already stocked and pull it forward to look full. I was scheduled one of my rare 7 hour shifts given wal marts mentality and how I was scheduled I either had to pull the merchandise forward skipping my correct time for lunch or take lunch. either way I was going to get yelled at. I took a late lunch.... the next day I called in because that day i took a late lunch was my birthday and I had two days after that off. so I call in and the lady on the phones tone was off she said see you in a few days and hung up. I wasnt clocked in when I came back and I was called in the office and written up. that was my final write up so that meant termination. I asked what I was getting fired for and it wasnt for calling in no it was the late lunch so I was mad. I picked up my last check and the lady who handed it to me said you can come back in 6 months to get your job back. you are a great worker hunny I hate to see you go. she wasnt my supervisor but she seen me work a lot and we always had friendly chats. also my supervisor was a bitch. when ee met I put my hand out to introduce myself and she just said oh ok nice to meet you Im April. she always tried starting shit claiming she was watching me and I just stood around.
I can't stay in a Walmart for longer than 15 minutes before I start to get anxious. There always seems to be unsupervised kids running around. Everything on the shelves is in the wrong spot and/or shuffled around. The people shopping there are just...interesting. On top of that, there is always at least 3-4 people loitering at the front doors (drunk and/or high, sleeping, just standing there, or someone trying to sell you something). Walmart is the pits and I avoid that place like the plague.
I'm told a good thing about working there is they have an Ethics Group and you can report any problems you have to them. I was told that anyone who has been bullied or treated wrong at a Walmart as a customer or as an employee you can report it to the Work Place Ethics group. You can find your local ethics group by doing a google search under "Walmart Ethics" so any bad moments or complaints can be sent to the Ethics group and that report goes to the Walmart Home Office. Even if you are a former employee.
I was walking into a wall mart one night and I was almost hit by a truck and when I brought it up to the manager they brushed it and had to take care of a shop lifter
Holy crap. I never knew that walmart was so evil. My walmart is fine nothing wrong has ever happened there i have 2 wal mart s and there's one that always has all the new stuff.
I completely understand every point you had. I live down near Cincinnati and literally every Walmart I have been to it seems like it always has the scummiest people. There's a big shopping area 15 minutes from where I live. It's one of the nicest parts of town and I go there because there is nice restaurants there and I like to shop at the outlet for christmas. Just a nice area, the wealthier people live around there. But as soon as I walked into the walmart there, it was just like I was in a completely different place. Like I was in a walmart in the bad part of town.
I got fired from walmart back in july and to get health benefits you have to be there for 6months. Also the "90 days" is also 6 months. i was informed that bit of info when i was fired
My wife worked for Walmart about 10 years ago. She said it was the worst job she ever had and they would cheat her out of hours on her paycheck and make her punch out for breaks but still stay working.
My local Walmart moved farther down the road to the next city over for a bigger facility allowable for 24-hour access, making it all the easier to NOT give them my business. I live closer to other stores like Safeway for grocery, Rite Aid for pharmacy, a Target, and (gasp!) a Gamestop.
I live right behind a wall Mart and in far away from all the other retail stores so essentially I just go there because it's just so convenient and I can get the food that I want
I got fired from Walmart because I sick and hospitalized but that didn't stopped them for firing me. I worked there for over year and got fired end of August.
Walmart also failed to throw away wildfire contaminated products in Fort McMurray Alberta after being closed for around a month due to the evacuation of city. So I will never buy groceries from them again.
Wife?! I assumed you were either gay or single. Good job getting a woman that puts up with the stuff you have on the wall behind you! I have the "Zap That Thirst" Nuka Cola poster on my wall and my wife is OK with it too.
The only time I shop there is because there are WWE figures exclusive there. But they don't even have them half the time and they now put pool noodles in front of the section for WWE.
Bear in mind this video isn't ALL walmart I currently work at walmart and every management member wants the customer put first and makes you take a full lunch
The one I worked at was great, opposite of what was said there. Then again its a Canadian walmart. Broke my back (not at work, and no spinal injury) and they sent me a fruit basket and even let me work during my recovery with little odd jobs around the store that I could manage at the hours I could handle. While walmart in general might not be a great company, it kind of depends on the management of the individual stores in my opinion, a lot of people at the one I was at STILL work there 10 years after I left (only because I moved away). Another story is I started in "Store Standards" witch is basically a cart pusher, and helps carry out large items for customers and such. Managers would stop me every once and awhile when it was -30c (Canada) and give me an extra break to warm up even if I could not keep up with the amount of customers that needed carts (Managers even went out and got a few loads). Also if its really hot in summer, they would write off some iced teas and bring over a cooler so we could keep hydrated. Anyway just wanted to share that, While I do see a lot of negative stuff surrounding walmart and I won't try to say its not true, or exaggerated, I think it kind of depends on the area and how its managed.
I only go to Wal-Mart as a last resort. In my area we have Giant Eagle and it's a much better shopping experience and the employees seem happy for the most part and will assist you when needed.
When I worked at walmart for two yeard, my manager didn't like me very much. She tried to move me back to cashering so I wouldnt be in her area anymore, but i tried getting her to let me go somewhere else only for her to tell me to not bother no one would want to hire you anyway. Quit within the month.
So I work at a Neighborhood Market and they have a HUGE emphasis on stretching before your shift. I can see someone who is on their insurance getting hurt outside of work and them trying to denying to pay for any medical bills because you didn't stretch or something stupid like that.
i currently work at Walmart and it's my first job, i feel like you didnt work at a good walmart just because at mine they put the customer first, but there are some managers there who rather have their departments cleaned up instead of helping people
Back Pocket Game Reviews I know. I watched your Q&A video where you mentioned it. Love your content. Keep up the good work! P.S. I hate Walmart too! I never go into one with my CCW lol
I'm sorry that you had these experiences with Walmart. I myself work at Walmart and don't have too much to complain about besides the forgetful management. But one point you brought up that i noticed was that Walmart attracts the weirdest or sketchiest people. I have often met scary, rude, or extremely weird people. It is also a lot worse with the fact that i work the night shift so the worse of the worse come in then. I have been planning on doing videos telling stories about working there like you have with gamestop but I am holding off until I get a different job.
+Digital Wolf Productions we had a guy walk around masturbating in Walmart. He would randomly walk up to people and get off on them. Different stores got hit by him all the time
Back Pocket Game Reviews Oh my gosh! That is so bad! I haven't seen anything like that (yet). Closest thing I saw to that was two people starting to "get it on" up against the CDs.
I worked at General Mills, and Walmart basically controls how many/what products they want and what price points. So, in reality, we all worked for Walmart!!!
The only time I would go to Walmart is to pick up any Pokemon products that I can only find there and online (but I don't really don't want to shop online). But for anything else, I just leave everything else there for everyone else.
Wow now I hate Walmart even MORE
+Frogboyattacks If your a selfish being, then you might

Walmart is awesome!
Same here
Yo same
I worked at Wal-Mart for 3 years. if only customers knew how much we talk shit about them lol
+Planet Pasta I could imagine
Back Pocket Game Reviews your walmart is weird because mine told us that customers are always before your work.
+Planet Pasta could have also changed its like 6 years ago I worked for them
Back Pocket Game Reviews ya mine was about 4 years ago
Lazy Creepypasta As soon as customers leave my register, I insult them and curse them under my breath.
I'm dying, I got a walmart ad before this video. The first skippable ad that I never skipped
I wish more people knew about the atrocities that Walmart commits. It's truly a horrible company these days. Nothing like what the founder set out for it to be.

Jude Doe I worked as a cashier at Walmart for 5 months 10 years. They did the same thing to me.
brian thomas I had to walk about 6-8 blocks too so I would be up at 5:30am
They really don't care
You work 8 hours and they give you a freaking hour lunch break. It doesn’t take a human that long to eat, by God. I don’t miss working there.
Walmart in a nutshell:
Worker: My leg has been cut off!
Walmart: don't care get back to work
Worker: The world is ending I need to get into a vault!
Walmart: who cares those can of beans won't stack them self.
Worker: BUT THE BOMB JUST HIT
Walmart: I DON'T CARE IF THE WORLD IS ENDING YOU NEVER YELL AT ME AGA.... ....
World ended

Thanks for the video! I'm going through a tough time right now and your videos always seem to make me smile. Keep the good work going.
I once got one single grape from Wal-Mart for free
CasperGV 2 for 1 cent
5 finger discount?
Wal-Mart is a cesspool of shit. I live near one and it sucks. Bad customer service, half the lanes are always closed, the self-checkouts lock up, and they're always out of stock of what you need.
ShakeFan14 I agree with the out of stock thing....
Yeah, but the worst part of it, is Electronics. If you want to get an item like flash drives or a pack of DVDs, you have to go stand in line for nearly ten minutes just to get someone to unlock the cage and get an item for you before you pay it up. I don't know about Target's policies when it comes to that stuff...
I can't step foot in one. Not just because I'll be arrested for trespassing, but because I'd tear that shit to hell! They'd be so torn up I'd end up in prison for all the damage I'd do!
I avoid wallmart as much as possible
Worked there for 5 years. I lost respect after I heard their managers meetings where they said a paralyzed guy was faking it cause he got out of his wheelchair by pulling himself, made fun of a tourettes guy studerring, and made fun of a heavier chick
I was told while working at Walmart to greet everyone in my aisle with a hello, a smile and look at them and ask if they needed help but I also got in trouble for doing that
I used to be a DM at wally world. It was the worst time of my life. They don't care about anything but that profit.
+Darrian Ingles sure don't. They did before Sam Walton the owner died
@@BPGRYT Walton ran it differently. He was proud to have everything Made In America in his store, but now you're lucky if you can find more than a dozen things made in America there!
i didnt make it past a year either with walmart. so much a garbage of a company
Wal-Mart triggers my anxiety, so I avoid it typically.
Although because my Wal-Mart is in the same plaza as my GameStop, I always stop in during pre-release to see if there's free stuff from it.
Soul Calibur V I got a free SCV Shirt and hadn't even preordered, they just gave it to people in their tournament, and Black Ops 2 I got to play for 2 hours while I waited on GameStop to start releasing copies.
My NES classic edition got cancelled at Wal-Mart today so I'm pretty pissed about it.
serves you right for even going there in the first place! Should have used Target!
I worked for those scum 6 years... I was an overnight stocker (before the super center)... I watched them systematically get rid of people who were there 10 years or more. After 2 years working there I saw how disgusting the company is and everyone else I worked with warned me... So why did I stay 4 more years there? Cuz I loved most of the people I worked with... We were stuck in hell and made the best of it. We were overnights so we hated the daytime stockers who were called ICS (we said it stood for "I Can't Stock" lol)... Anyway I slipped on water... Tore ligaments in my knee... Workmans Comp... After 6 years of Exceeds including Stocker of the month... I was to be brought back as a door greeter and when time came my wage would substantially reduced. I am now on Walmarts "Black List"...anyway you have your GameStop horror stories that I enjoy watching; I have my Walmart horror stories... Watching your channel is like Therapy lol. Thank You and Keep It Up
sorry to hear!!
There's a Walmart down the street from where I live and I hate going there there's time when I go to another one that's nicer just to stay away from it. I even applied to work near the one I live and got told $7.25 an hour when I heard that I just hanged up the phone.
Not trying to dismiss your points at all, just wanted to add some personal input. My girlfriend worked with Wal-Mart for 6 months and sometimes she wouldn't want to take a lunch because she didn't bring any or wasn't hungry or whatever reason and they would force her to because they have to. But they also promised a small pay raise after 6 months of employment and when that rolled around, they told her that they changed it. That she had to wait because "she still had stuff to do". She quit because of that and how negative the work environment is. Everyone was always miserable and talking about each other behind their backs, and the customers were often times very toxic as well.
Wow Walmart sounds like crap
Ingrid Nuclear it pretty much is...
It is crap
I am a former employee of Walmart and I absolutely despised my time there. They treat their employees like crap, you aren't paid worth crap, they will write you up for no reason at all, and will constantly praise bad work methods if it gets the job done faster. I'm glad I got out of there, and I hate having to shop there because my dinky ass town doesn't any other retail centers nearby. As a side note I think it's hilarious that you worked for Verizon FiOS, a job I also did for several years. I was in their Price-up and retention depts.
Walmart must be very disrespectful that must suck to work there
TheHockeyShockey I try to be a nice person and a good worker, but staff and customers do not appreciate my efforts......I'm having anxiety attacks at work. If I need a price check, etc, a lot of times I have to wait several minutes.....does not make for happy customers. Time to say au revoir to Walmart before I have a total nervous breakdown.
KeKeGuy it does
I agree with you very much about Walmart. I have also worked for them and it sucked. I also have alot of trouble retuning anything I buy there if it is broken.
ughh i was gonna go to sleep. guess not
+Ishaan kaushal lol just don't go to sleep in a Walmart
Back Pocket Game Reviews what about there parking lot
Back Pocket Game Reviews what about there parking lot
As a former Wal-Mart employee I feel your pain. I worked receiving for over a year. When I started we only had 2 cart pushers and one of them got fired right around Christmas time so we were called up front to push carts quite often. It was quite frustrating, especially when we had a really big load to unload.
Only went there for the YuGiOh cards. Always get good pulls from those. Its always a quick aisle down, grab em, pay for em, then get out.
I can confirm that helping a customer if it interferes with a task is frowned upon if not outright punished. I was there to buy a TV once that was on sale at both Walmart and Best Buy for the same price. Walmart was way closer to where I lived at the time, so it seemed the logical choice.
I went in, found the TV, on display and had verified online before that they had a few in stock. None were in boxes on the floor though, and no one was around in the electronics department other than a younger guy who was stocking DVDs on one of the displays. I asked him if he could check to see if they had any in back.
He was pretty friendly, and started talking about the TVs as he was on his way back to check for me. Someone that I'm assuming was his supervisor stepped out onto the floor and asked him what he was doing. He said he was helping me, and she told him to get back to stocking the DVDs.
He looked up at me with a mix of fear and apology, then said "I'll find someone else to help you" before going back to stocking DVDs. The manager went back into the back while this was going on, and I spent another 15 minutes waiting around for someone to come help me before I walked out of the store and drove across town to Best Buy to get the TV.
I'll never go to Walmart for a big purchase again after that.
+Nate Fritz yeah they suck. The staff also gets no training on any of the tech. Went into get a Kindle for my mother in-law, asked the guy running the electronics department for one. He looked at me and asked what's a Kindle. Like cmon I know they aren't great but not knowing what one is.
Our Wal-Mart is in a slightly rural, small town area. Not a lot of traffic (which is nice), good location and kind employees! Never worked at one, but I don't think it'll be a good idea if they're strict on lunch schedules. I have Type-1 diabetes, which may make a lunch break take longer if I have a sugar low... Anywho, I haven't really had too many bad experiences with Wal-Mart.
TheCrazyGinger on that note... those people making 7$ a week would be making zero dollars a week if it was not for walmart.
That's true. However, you should be grateful that you are earning a living, but you shouldn't be grateful that that particular company (regardless of it being a Wal-mart or not) for offering you employment. Especially if you are a U.S. able-bodied citizen with a H.S. Diploma some sort of certification, associates degree, or even a bachelor's. I get that some people end up at these jobs even with these type of post-secondary accolades, but that really doesn't mean you need to stay there. Use them as a stepping stone or something to pay the bills while you continue your job search. Avoid complacency. In a capitalist economy like the U.S., there is absolutely no reason why you or anyone should settle at a company because they gave you a job. Unless, of course, you want the job. Not necessarily need it. Even BPGR realized this and is now in a better position since he left the Wal-mart. It is very possible had he stayed, he would not have made the connection to end up working where he is now.
+Aleekcheaahoosh Impetus very true if a company Dosent appreciate you or treats you poorly there are plenty more to work for
I haven't shopped at Walmart since 2014. Walmart's only existence is a place to shoplift.
(Not that I'd ever steal anything)
:)
this could have been all solved by contacting head office
Kirkland Mandin youd probably get sacked and murdered by the corporation themselves. Sounds like gamestop and walmart to me.
That home office won't do shit! They're the ones controlling all this! They actually force vendors to sell them goods lower than anyone else by refusing to carry it unless they sell it lower! It's one thing to legitimately buy it lower, but to strong-arm them like that by refusing to carry it unless it's lower than everyone else? BULLSHIT!
My worst Walmart experience has to have been pre ordering Pokemon heart gold/soul silver. I came on release day during around the afternoon. I had to ask around (their employees; customer support-> customer support manager (or whoever was superior) -> etc)
In a nutshell on day of release when I arrived they basically got a box from the back and said "whoa look at all these Pokemon games where'd they come from!?" Meaning for half the day nobody was able to get the game.
I'm glad I never got called back after my interview lol
G-Legend you must've been really bad at the time of the interview that even Walmart didn't want you
I have no idea but frankly after watching this video I'm so happy I didn't get called back. I have a much better job now.
+G-Legend any job is much better then Wally world
G-Legend I'm glad for you! : )
Only time I ever deal with Walmart stores on location anymore is for buying the occasional card(Netflix, WoW, maybe PS Store), or to load a gift card someone gave me for Christmas one year if I want a specific item to buy on their site without having to go through the hassle of knowing whether they have it physically there or not. Otherwise, I simply go through Amazon to buy things via loading gift cards from my local gas station only a couple blocks away.
I think everyone hates walmart honestly….
+Frogboyattacks very few people love Walmart. I didn't even go into their shady business practices. Do a quick Google search on it. Or you could even search it on TH-cam. These are just my personal reasons why I do not shop there.
Back Pocket Game Reviews i prefer target as they are less shady to me but funny enough sams the one associated with walmart has better customer treatment and just feels better than walmart.
@@BPGRYT you're right, they strong-arm vendors to force them to sell lower than others, which is what's forcing these companies to lower their production costs, thus why so much is made in China now. Walmart will actually withhold items from their shelves unless they can get it lower than everyone else- that is complete bullshit!!
Dude i love your videos man, i can relate alot to your experiences i appreciate you speaking out man a lot of these companies need to be called out on what they do. A lot of us don't have the time to shoot a whole video like you so we appreciate well at least i know i do. Currently working in a call center smh lol.
+type2red I have worked in a call center o
My brother once handled the carts in the lot. He said he found one in a tree, and another on top of a car.
Naturally, I dislike WalMart. His stories only add fuel to that disdain
+Heath Mordin I think a lot of people hate Wal-Mart
I feel you my dude. I understand why people think that being in a certain part of town or a certain area will make them feel safe because even I feel that way... but it is so far from the truth. Yeah that concept works better when your talking about neighborhoods but when it comes to shopping plazas and these stores and shit... man anyone could be lurking around there at any given time. It is not illegal for a shady lookin' person to walk around where they choose and of course they are going to think they uppity more well off people are going to be easy targets and not put up a fight and just be willing to give them what they want. You just really have to be safe out here no matter where the hell you at.
Walmart is terrible, I swear you return something that is faulty all they do is put it back out on the shelf
+Keiron Cheyette they sure do cause the people managing the service desk have no idea
I hated working for them so I feel your pain. I was there for almost 3 years.
I worked at Wal Mart before TH-cam became my job I absolutley hated it so many stories of them fucking me
+HeyWatchYourMouth you do full-time TH-cam?
TH-cam > Walmart
Yea we know. WE talk shit about yall too. Get the fuck back to work with that one lane open bullshit. Then have attitude when someone has the gull to ask you a question. God forbid you had to do your job.
i grew to hate wal mart when i worked for Hershey's. They treated me and every other vendor like complete garbage. Up until then, I had been a loyal customer. Like you, i did the majority of my shopping at krogers
+Jamar Rippy yeah not just vendors get treated like shit but customers and employees as well
you must've worked at a tough walmart. mine was laid back I had fun.
Lazy Creepypasta they screwed a youtuber valled bullet barry go to his channel its a full story of what happebed to him.
I feel you. I worked at wal mart when I was 20 and it was aweful. they told us at orientation to take our lunch inbetween our 5 and 6 hour mark. i got written up for taking it past 5 hours and then was told its between our 4th and 5th hour. I marched to the HR and comfirmed that they said it was 5th and 6th. I then told them I was written up for it.
I then got written up for wxpired yogurt. I worked the frozen and dairy department but they told me from now on Ill be scheduled frozen. I was in frozen for a month and and a half and with in that time the yogurt was expired. regardless of where they had me I was written up for it. I tried fighting it but they shifted blame on me anyways.
then they constantly scheduled me 4 and a half hours sometimes 5 and a half hour shifts they wanted me to throw out the returns, stock, scan food items in the bins, unload trucks, and devide my time between two departments with in that time. the issue was my wal mart was one of the bigger wal marts, understaffed, and I was scheduled always a half hour before rush hour hit. I couldnt do it all on my own. so I was told they would move me to cart pusher and take a pay decrease if it I didnt shape up.
then because the freezer was packed and extremely cold(-30) filled with items that never scanned I would have walk out from time to time to warm up when I was in there for long periods. I got yelled at for it and told I wasnt doing my job.
the final nail was when they enforced this rule that for an hour you had to take merchandise already stocked and pull it forward to look full. I was scheduled one of my rare 7 hour shifts given wal marts mentality and how I was scheduled I either had to pull the merchandise forward skipping my correct time for lunch or take lunch. either way I was going to get yelled at. I took a late lunch.... the next day I called in because that day i took a late lunch was my birthday and I had two days after that off. so I call in and the lady on the phones tone was off she said see you in a few days and hung up. I wasnt clocked in when I came back and I was called in the office and written up. that was my final write up so that meant termination. I asked what I was getting fired for and it wasnt for calling in no it was the late lunch so I was mad.
I picked up my last check and the lady who handed it to me said you can come back in 6 months to get your job back. you are a great worker hunny I hate to see you go. she wasnt my supervisor but she seen me work a lot and we always had friendly chats.
also my supervisor was a bitch. when ee met I put my hand out to introduce myself and she just said oh ok nice to meet you Im April. she always tried starting shit claiming she was watching me and I just stood around.
preach it man 🙏, Walmart is the cancer of retail stores.
Lol at 1:03 when he accidentally swallows the ice cube. Hahah keep up the great vids.
+CccArd Vcvversvv I spit it back in the cup.... Damn ice trying to kill me
I can't stay in a Walmart for longer than 15 minutes before I start to get anxious. There always seems to be unsupervised kids running around. Everything on the shelves is in the wrong spot and/or shuffled around. The people shopping there are just...interesting. On top of that, there is always at least 3-4 people loitering at the front doors (drunk and/or high, sleeping, just standing there, or someone trying to sell you something). Walmart is the pits and I avoid that place like the plague.
Brandom Glitch I agree wall mart is full of weird people mostly on Friday even tho I live in a town of 8000
Jamie Krutzfeldt they are like another species of human
I'm told a good thing about working there is they have an Ethics Group and you can report any problems you have to them. I was told that anyone who has been bullied or treated wrong at a Walmart as a customer or as an employee you can report it to the Work Place Ethics group. You can find your local ethics group by doing a google search under "Walmart Ethics" so any bad moments or complaints can be sent to the Ethics group and that report goes to the Walmart Home Office. Even if you are a former employee.
+Figrin Dan yeah they don't actually care. Nothing comes of any complaints sent in.
Believe this or not but.... I GOT A WALMART AD RIGHT BEFORE THE VIDEO!!!
+Couldn't find a good name that's funny
i find it hilarious that a walmart ad played before this video
+Danny Games lol
I completely agree man, Walmart fucks everyone over
+Slightly Average Gamer employees and customers
Slightly Average Gamer and other smaller stores!
Dude I totally agree with how you feel about Wal-Mart. When I worked for Aramark I could not stand having to deliver to Walmart!!!
To summarize the video: fuck Walmart
+Austin A yeah that's the short and sweet version
Reminds me of my 4th grade teacher. She hates toys r us with a burning passion.
Get better soon and good luck in the future
+TheDanno_10 thanks man
I was walking into a wall mart one night and I was almost hit by a truck and when I brought it up to the manager they brushed it and had to take care of a shop lifter
I jus got home from Walmart, and saw this.
Lol.
It's so easy to manipulate walmarts items.
i always love seeing my fellow man drinking cold water in front of my thirsty self
Holy crap. I never knew that walmart was so evil. My walmart is fine nothing wrong has ever happened there i have 2 wal mart s and there's one that always has all the new stuff.
I completely understand every point you had. I live down near Cincinnati and literally every Walmart I have been to it seems like it always has the scummiest people. There's a big shopping area 15 minutes from where I live. It's one of the nicest parts of town and I go there because there is nice restaurants there and I like to shop at the outlet for christmas. Just a nice area, the wealthier people live around there. But as soon as I walked into the walmart there, it was just like I was in a completely different place. Like I was in a walmart in the bad part of town.
+Trevor Philips dude you live by the outlet mall off of 71. I live in Columbus
I tried to do a price match for a $800 laptop and it was around $100- $200 and they denied to sell for the online Walmart price.
Creeper5178 fun fact walmart online uses 3rd party sellers
Crow awa i know walmart online uses other sellers to sell the switch and its like a hundred dollars more.
I got fired from walmart back in july and to get health benefits you have to be there for 6months. Also the "90 days" is also 6 months. i was informed that bit of info when i was fired
I definitely hate Wal-Mart too
+lea graham oh I didn't know you watched my channel?
Back Pocket Game Reviews Mmhmm ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+Brandon Truman it's my wife's friend
You are so right.......I worked at my Walmart for 5 years and it was the exact same way
When you missed the first
My wife worked for Walmart about 10 years ago. She said it was the worst job she ever had and they would cheat her out of hours on her paycheck and make her punch out for breaks but still stay working.
+Jim Hirsh yeah had all that while I was there. Good luck arguing them
Lmao I literally just got a job at Walmart. I had orientation yesterday 😂😂
+Dickwraith I wish you luck buddy
Dickwraith good luck
My local Walmart moved farther down the road to the next city over for a bigger facility allowable for 24-hour access, making it all the easier to NOT give them my business. I live closer to other stores like Safeway for grocery, Rite Aid for pharmacy, a Target, and (gasp!) a Gamestop.
+Ian New Yasha lol Wal-Mart is a pretty terrible company
Good thing Walmart doesn't exist in Australia
+Gazza I may move to Australia
Packing my bags and moving there.
Gazza for real??
It doesn't exist in NYC either. You literally have to go out of your way to get to a Wal Mart if you live in NYC.
Funny.... Isn't Doug McMillan from Australia? And if I recall he is the CEO of Walmart US.... Hmmm....
I live right behind a wall Mart and in far away from all the other retail stores so essentially I just go there because it's just so convenient and I can get the food that I want
i hate walmart too. so we are good
Oh my god. I am so sorry about your wife too man. damn that's crazy. I hope she is okay
thank God I don't work retail
+2SidedTech lol not retail jobs are bad
I got fired from Walmart because I sick and hospitalized but that didn't stopped them for firing me. I worked there for over year and got fired end of August.
You live in Columbus, Ohio? That's cool because I used to live in Ohio
Cincinnati here. I knew he was from Ohio when he mentioned Kroger and Meijer.
It's always weird when us Ohioans go to other states. We never see those grocery stores lol.
Walmart also failed to throw away wildfire contaminated products in Fort McMurray Alberta after being closed for around a month due to the evacuation of city. So I will never buy groceries from them again.
Awesome 🤑
Shopping at Walmart on Black Friday is absolute HELL.
Wife?! I assumed you were either gay or single. Good job getting a woman that puts up with the stuff you have on the wall behind you! I have the "Zap That Thirst" Nuka Cola poster on my wall and my wife is OK with it too.
+Jen B yeah been with my wife for about 8 years she has appeared on my channel
Well said......Truth about Wal Mart. They did a documentary on the Walmart about 10+ years ago.
+Mr Lane Sir oh yeah I know
The only time I shop there is because there are WWE figures exclusive there. But they don't even have them half the time and they now put pool noodles in front of the section for WWE.
Bear in mind this video isn't ALL walmart I currently work at walmart and every management member wants the customer put first and makes you take a full lunch
The one I worked at was great, opposite of what was said there. Then again its a Canadian walmart. Broke my back (not at work, and no spinal injury) and they sent me a fruit basket and even let me work during my recovery with little odd jobs around the store that I could manage at the hours I could handle.
While walmart in general might not be a great company, it kind of depends on the management of the individual stores in my opinion, a lot of people at the one I was at STILL work there 10 years after I left (only because I moved away).
Another story is I started in "Store Standards" witch is basically a cart pusher, and helps carry out large items for customers and such. Managers would stop me every once and awhile when it was -30c (Canada) and give me an extra break to warm up even if I could not keep up with the amount of customers that needed carts (Managers even went out and got a few loads). Also if its really hot in summer, they would write off some iced teas and bring over a cooler so we could keep hydrated.
Anyway just wanted to share that, While I do see a lot of negative stuff surrounding walmart and I won't try to say its not true, or exaggerated, I think it kind of depends on the area and how its managed.
I only go to Wal-Mart as a last resort. In my area we have Giant Eagle and it's a much better shopping experience and the employees seem happy for the most part and will assist you when needed.
Oh my gosh I work at Walmart right now and you are exactly freaking right
When I worked at walmart for two yeard, my manager didn't like me very much. She tried to move me back to cashering so I wouldnt be in her area anymore, but i tried getting her to let me go somewhere else only for her to tell me to not bother no one would want to hire you anyway. Quit within the month.
So I work at a Neighborhood Market and they have a HUGE emphasis on stretching before your shift. I can see someone who is on their insurance getting hurt outside of work and them trying to denying to pay for any medical bills because you didn't stretch or something stupid like that.
i currently work at Walmart and it's my first job, i feel like you didnt work at a good walmart just because at mine they put the customer first, but there are some managers there who rather have their departments cleaned up instead of helping people
I got a Wal Mart ad before this video
That's really messed up, the one near me has terrible customer service too.
Hey man. I'm from Columbus, Ohio too! I went to Reynoldsburg High school. Nice to see a fellow youtuber from Ohio!
+Angry Ginger I went to Watterson
Back Pocket Game Reviews I know. I watched your Q&A video where you mentioned it. Love your content. Keep up the good work! P.S. I hate Walmart too! I never go into one with my CCW lol
+Angry Ginger lol I don't go into them unless I have to
Back Pocket Game Reviews Bitches be crazy 😆
+Angry Ginger that's very true
I'm sorry that you had these experiences with Walmart. I myself work at Walmart and don't have too much to complain about besides the forgetful management. But one point you brought up that i noticed was that Walmart attracts the weirdest or sketchiest people. I have often met scary, rude, or extremely weird people. It is also a lot worse with the fact that i work the night shift so the worse of the worse come in then. I have been planning on doing videos telling stories about working there like you have with gamestop but I am holding off until I get a different job.
+Digital Wolf Productions we had a guy walk around masturbating in Walmart. He would randomly walk up to people and get off on them. Different stores got hit by him all the time
Back Pocket Game Reviews Oh my gosh! That is so bad! I haven't seen anything like that (yet). Closest thing I saw to that was two people starting to "get it on" up against the CDs.
+Digital Wolf Productions lol people do strange things in Walmart. He was only trying to get her clothes on roll back
I worked at General Mills, and Walmart basically controls how many/what products they want and what price points. So, in reality, we all worked for Walmart!!!
My wife works at wal mart and she has the same problems minus the mugging thing and she just put in her 2 weeks notice to quit.
+Damon David good for her, she will be more appreciated elsewhere
Walmart's reward policy sounds like fedex
The only time I would go to Walmart is to pick up any Pokemon products that I can only find there and online (but I don't really don't want to shop online). But for anything else, I just leave everything else there for everyone else.
