    So I got a job in the warehouse as a 32 year old home owner. The job pays 21 an hour to start, with guaranteed raises until I’m at around 24 an hour. Not only that, I work three 12 hour shifts, so I get 36 hours with FOUR WHOLE DAYS off. And they hand out overtime like candy, I’d be making over 30 an hour on those overtime shifts.
    Now, the awesome thing is that with all this free time, I finally have the time in my life to better myself while affording to pay my bills and mortgage. Walmart recently got rid of the dollar a day and now will pay all of your tuition and books, and they added more degrees. Im starting school on Nov 3 and this is the first time in my life I can go. This of the opportunity of a lifetime in my opinion.

      Yeah but Ive had a ton of jobs and there are also better out there. Some people in walmarts only function is to discipline and shit on staff. Im surprised theyve survived this long seeing as how there are retail or supermarkets that DO NOT do this kind of shit. I lasted 6 months and I planned on staying a lot longer. They make me want to vomit.

    Some corrections.
    * It’s odd but you actually get a discount off of organic produce in Walmart. The things you don’t get a discount on is discounted items, dairy, produce, deli, cigarettes, alcahol, gift cards just to name a few.
    * If you work within the Black Friday time frame you get a single purchase discount of 10% plus and additional 15% which equals 23.5%. It basically means they 100%, give a discount of 10% which is 90% then take 15% of 90%.

    • @EconomicCockroach
      @EconomicCockroach  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's mostly true, however at least in Walmart US got the discount on regular produce not just organic.

    • @Shady_Fungus
      @Shady_Fungus 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It might’ve changed but as far as I know that’s how it’s been. You use to be able to get a 10% discount off of dairy after Thanksgiving but that has changed I’m guessing due to Covid.

    Just wait at least six months and you’ll want to get out of Walmart. I worked at Walmart for 6 1/2 years and they took advantage of me. I was a maintenance associate and I did TWICE the work than the other maintenance associates. The CSMs had me take my lunch at 7 or sometimes 8 O’ clock practically every day that I worked.I finally got my social security benefits and walked off the job in the middle of the shift one day and never returned. That’s how disgusted I was. I’m going to tell you all to be careful.Walmart can be a very bad company to work for. If you want to make a career by working at Walmart go for it. But be very careful..

      Most the managers at my walmart store are lazy and whiney. I work frozen and they recently started making frozen and dairy associates bin their own overstock cause they dont like the cold and that its too much, ON TOP of that they still expect us to zone. They also state that the store manager is what made this decision for the sole purpose of making us see how difficult binning is.. how petty you gotta be man. Binning is in no way difficult, its just tedious. Also, WE CANNOT control how much overstock there will be. Whoever or however they order new merchandise is the sole issue as to why we get so much overstock not to mention the stupid vispicks which takes up room for the new freight coming in. HALF the time vispicks will mostly be overstock cause whoever chooses the picks clearly doesnt walkthrough to see what is actually out of stock... Okay, rant over.

    I got a job there not too long ago. Love most of my coworkers, but some of the team leaders and coaches are lazy and rude. They take advantage of new employees. Example one of the coaches who work overnight never cleans up so he force me to clean up behind him. I don’t work overnights I work 4am to 1pm ta stocking 1. Or he asks me to barrow TA scanners from claims and return them days later with a dead battery. Another team leader always have me do her job for her. Example I was zoning drinks and she asked me to do three carts of returns. She was texting and not working. The job pays good money and looks good on my resume. Plus the bosses like me.
