Oh yeah.....for 15 bucks an hour driving a crown turret in a cold storage 10/10 would agree. Job wasn't too bad but 15 bucks in 2024 is extremely discouraging.
i've always found it rather satisfying to assemble the various products on an order, sealing it up on a pallet, put the client/destination label on. though i was fortunate enough to work at a company that value'd quality over speed so they didn't demand their pickers to finish the orders ''yesterday''.

I worked at a C&S perishables warehouse for almost 2 years and a lot of time on a team. It was about 50% boxes and the other half hard stuff to stack. You are doing great! Try touching your boxes less. Place it and be done. When stacking also try to make sure each layer is in the apposite direction of the last. Like shift the boxes 90 degrees on the next layer. Lastly always make sure your larger boxes are on the outside when you can. You will pick a hell of a lot faster and your stacking will be stronger. 😁👍
Omg if you knew how much money I get paid to stock inventory in a retail warehouse/store as inefficiently as I do... walking a wad of plastic 80 feet only to come back and grab 3 pieces of cardboard and carry it 50 feet to the stack just so I don't forget it in the rack somewhere. Watching someone do a fast-paced freight job like this makes me feel bad about the work I do, but when I look around at my co-workers suddenly I don't feel so bad.
@@SpaceTimeManipulatorSTM Haha yeah every company is different. I was forced to pick fast because the faster I picked the more I get paid.

I like it aswell, work in a -25 degrees warehouse too. I like it, it’s a hard job and gets repetitive, but it just has something about being in a huge warehouse driving around with forklifts, making orders and packing pallets
@@jameone5000 actually started doing sorting recently. Much less repetitive as you have to keep your tounge in your mouth to not fuck up where what goes etc. Although much, much colder to be in the -25 temps when you're not moving as much ad when you do pluck and packing.
Sadly some warehouses have time limits and bullshit, if a person takes to long to build a pallet they can get written up and I have a friend who went to work on his day off after riding dirt bikes all day and they actually docked his pay for taking 35 mins to build a pallet when "they" say it can be done in 15 minutes and by "they" I mean the pencil pushing bitches in the office. BTW it was a 500 peice count pallet..
I worked 2 + years in Dollar General as an order selector on both cooler and freezer, and I liked it since it was a straight forward job but left after my fingers and toes started to feel numb even after I was at home. We had boots and gloves for frozen temperatures but that doesn't matter once you start sweating! My fingers and toes were always numb at work, you had to work very fast in order to stay warm and stop your body to cool down. It is definitely not a job you want to do for many years, but this video brings good memories. One of the hardest jobs out there in terms of physicality.
I have been in this industry for almost 12 years now. I use that type of RF unit at FedEx ground back in 2009 and it was annoying. For order selecting nothing beats the wireless headset in my opinion . Anyone doing this type of work and meeting the standard every day you are a soldier!!
This looks insanely dystopian, with this dude nearly silently cruising alone, looking at the computer on his wrist and robotically picking up and scanning boxes.
DUDE, you brought back so many memories. I worked 8 years in a food distribution warehouse in southern MN before joining the army. Best job I ever had. Worked in all 3 department, dry, cooler and frozen and got .25 cents more for working in the freezer. Was very good at my job. The place closed down a few years ago after being bought out a few times. Started off by writing the stop numbers on the boxes then went to stickers and now I am seeing its all electronic, how we have changed. Thank you very much for showing this. It means more to me then you would think.
Hey man I’m working at US Foods right now and it’s $28.25 + incentives I’m making around 33 an hour. They changed it to 10 hour work days but still have to work 6-7 per week. Any tips on stacking? All the old stacks from your time always did it best
@@KelvinUniversity For tips for stacking, heavy stuff on the bottom lol. We surely didnt do it best thats for sure. Lost count how many times someone would put a 6-10 case of product like peaches on top of chips. In 04 when I left, I was making 12.50/hr working Sun-Thurs with every other Friday with a skeleton crew. Would start at about 8PM and get done at midnight during the summer and sometimes not done until 7 am during school year. Would also get a picking bonus which amounted to about $100 a week. Still got one of my picking bonus sheets in my back room.
i work in a frozen warehouse too im almost 20. the company is terrible but it pays a lot. start working at 3-4am go off around 3pm. they want you to do a certain number of packages. rookie : 300 per day , advanced : 700 and for the best workers it can go at 1.5k-2k. i was talking with seniors they said they were dead their back is gone but they gotta feed their fam , much respect to everyone doing that yall take care be safe.
Reminds me when I worked at Sysco West Coast Florida,the more you throw the more you made from 2000 to 2005 was a great job made lots of money,but if you picked one wrong product it would cost half your paycheck, made between 700-1200$a week depending on season
@@TrevorBrass yep it's crazy but they want to make sure the customer gets exactly what they ordered, when you came in to work the mis picks would be sitting on a pallet by the entry doors with the person's initials on the label and everyone would harasse the person, lol good times, mis picks are a no no for Sysco
All of the companies that deliver food case by case out the back of a big rig are brutal with errors. One wrong case usually costs more money than you were paid for your whole shift. So yeah they will take all of your incentive money for even one error.
Reminds me of when I worked at Grocery supply in Houston. They always put the newbies in the 0 degree freezer. Job had me beat, only lasted a month then I quit 😢
I got sick of doing this and got my CDL five years ago. I traveled across the United States several times over & went local driving making $30hr. I’ll never do warehouse work ever again!
I tried to get into this place. They make you go through a type of boot camp. To make sure they're not going to have to pay out the ass for insurance claims. I can run all day that was no problem, but we were in the training seasonal warehouse and there was absolutely zero air flow. Would have been absolutely fine if they stuck me in the freezer warehouse though. Hats off to whoever works at these places because they went through a lot of bullshit
As a frozen stocker for a grocery store, this is amazing. the way to made the palate is perfect, thank you for showing us this i can only imagine how much being in that cold sucks (around -2F im very sure)
sheeeeiitt i wish i had that little batman arm computer and motorized pallet scooter when i work at a warehouse. All i had was pen and paper and a shopping cart for the products. I was definitely the fittest i have ever been at that job, absolutely sucked though.
This is why I left this kind of work, left school in 2012 here in the UK, and have worked manufacturing jobs mainly in an engineering stores setting. It paid well, but factories and warehouses are places where your soul goes to die. Left last month, and I'm now learning to become a bus driver. The best choice I've ever made !
This brings back memories when I worked in SafeWay distribution in Northern California. I lasted for 3 months, I appreciate the men and women that are order selectors it’s a tough job.
If you ever see a picture with a boot cut straight in half, that was me. Learned the hard way of walking it and turning at the same time. There went my job lol
1:32 I believe those are Ore,Ida products. I work at that factory now owned by Simplot, as a forklift operator. we produce hashbrowns, tatertots, crowns, Obrien's, crinkly fries, and fast-food fries for big names like McDonalds, and Burger King. It's fast paced work I'll say, and being surrounded by people and machines its hard work not running into anything.
This gives me PTSD of my old work... Jesus christ but at least you work with kinda nice boxes, my boxes where all different sizes and packages, it was pain to build the pallete to be stable
Ahh, I remember the days of selecting, (I don’t miss it) now I drive for H-E-B I will say it’s a good starting position in the warehouse if your looking to advance. But I knew it wasn’t something I wanted to stay doing.
I worked there for 3 weeks & they would give “pep-talks” saying that the reason the H‑E‑B stores are low on stock is because the order selectors “did not meet their requirements” & they make you work even harder than it is, you have aggressive & hostile forklift operators blocking the way. On my first day, my “trainer” (or the guy watching my numbers, he looked like Travis Scott) came up to me & said “why have I been taking too long” I told him simply “uh it’s my first day?” & he replied “give me a better excuse than that” WTF? I quit cause some dude wasn’t paying attention, looking at his Apple Watch & driving really fast. I honked before turning a corner slowly & this guy appeared out of nowhere & we collided. I ended up cutting my knee & I reported it cause they threaten to fire you if you don’t report an accident. They sent both of us to do a drug test & the guy was waiting for me at the parking lot trying to fight me. Hostile work environment in general. Then they have these stupid “pep-talks” how the order selectors need to pick up the pace because they are “the reason” the H‑E‑B stores are low in stock, oh but when you order curbside pickup, they be giving you a BUNCH of free groceries you didn’t even ask for while also forgetting half of your order. H‑E‑B is a messy company owned by hostile people who do not care for their workers. You literally have to kiss ass to get to the top.
My favorite part was how I could jog in the cold for 10,12 or 14 hours but when it was time to stop and sweep for 15 minutes I instantly felt cold, tired and sick at the end of my shift.
former PIT driver here... I can feel the pressure ("fast paced environment") to this day through this video, often times working 20 ft above the ground in Brampton, Ontario and then also below the 30s.
I worked at a DSW warehouse for 3 months and already hated every single second of it, I don’t care how easy or hard the jobs were, the people I worked with were terrible, bosses were terrible, it always took me a long time to walk to the break room cuz how far it is, and I’m only 19 everybody else in there were older then me with kids and families and grandparents, I was the only young guy there
Working at the dillons perishable warehouse as a teamster was one of the most interesting parts of my life. The constant mandatory overtime got to me though.
the cold, the pace of work, the robotic voice that imposes an insane pace, the solitude, the monotony and repetitiveness of the tasks, the intellectual inactivity, and i suppose the low pay. i can't wait for these miserable jobs to be replaced once and for all by robots, courage to you, little ant, from the storage centres
You got all that correct except the pay. Pickers make insane money due to incentive. I worked at a warehouse for a few months years ago and our top picker brought home over 6 figures. Guy was a beast
Wow i started order picking for budweiser in 2019 i found it to be very therapeutic even tho we also had electric pallet jacks we also pushed metal carts around the warehouse racing one another haha now fast forward 2024 i am now a shift lead on a new third shift replenishing with a forklift we no longer order select watching it go from building pallets and carts to them building a million dollar conveyor belt system has been a drastic change its a challenge every day now but aslong as you take pride in your work the sky is the limit keep going brother !
It’s called moving up in the company and not staying as a lumper/picker/floater. Warehouse supervisors and mangers make upwards of 70k sitting in offices telling YOU to get your numbers up on your orders.
I did this for over 2 years, then I went to day shift and filled racks. Much easier. I preferred the high reach trucks over the riding pallet jacks honestly. I really ally loved doing the sit down narrow isle man up turret lifts, those were so fun.
i love the horns on the electric equipment *meep meep* lolol🤣🤣 this looks like backbreaking work, thanks for letting the average citizen see what goes on behind the scenes
Brings back memories, cause I used to work in a warehouse just like that. But I didn't do what this guy does. I'd unload stocks of retail products on a conveyor belt.
I did order picking for like six months and it was so soul sucking I had to get the fuck outta there. I kept looking at the older employees who had been there 20 years or more and it scared the shit out of me.
Pallet sticks and shrink wrap laying everywhere. Tight aisles especially around holidays it’s packed packed in there. Long ass pick lists and when you done you just get more stuff to pick. It’s the same shit everyday all day. You leave to go home and still trying to reverse like it’s a forklift 😂 hearing beeps in ya sleep😂
Dude got skills. Most guys just now coming into the game dont move fast even after months. Nice to see there is still hard workers out there. 14-18 hour days are brutal when your coworkers are under a 💯
I used to work in the San Marcos location, it was hell working around 130 other selectors all on the floor at the same time getting in each others way. And every other week you had about 20 brand new guys out there because nobody wanted to stick it out. I would never go back to working in that kind of environment.
Great job man. Boy does this bring back memories of when I did the exact same thing. Then I got my cdl and now I drive the trucks that deliver these goods. much respect though ✊️ it's hard work for sure 💪
Man , you gotta take it a little bit easy because you sound like you are going to pass out or have a heart attack due to overexertion...it may be freezing in there but you need to care more about your safety.
Never realized I sound like I was going to have a heart until I went back watched this video. I 100% was taking care of my health. Just some light cardio
If you have not done this type of work before, then you wouldn’t understand, especially moving quick in freezer or even cooler, and you’re doing this for 8-12 hours, if not more. So imagine breathing like this basically all day until your breaks 😂
I used to have a job just like this. Except it was a cherry picker and I had to go up and down to the different shelving levels. You’re a genius recording yourself doing this job man. Lots of views basically making money on TH-cam while you make money working.
Reminds me of our Local Bookers warehouse. Where they sell everything back in boxes. A lot of the same people doing this + small time shop owners doing their own shopping in it.
@ 31:01 when you used the "wedge between the boxes with the plastic method" to start the hand wrap, I was like yes, just how i do it, I never see anyone else do that where I work
Reminds me of night shift work I did at a printing factory. Except we had to pick out a number of envelopes needed per order lol then take thm out to each printer hey needed to go too. Fun job learning each spot and driving cool lil machines all night.
Funny thing to ask... somtimes you will be in a grocery store and you'll be looking at an item and then you'll reach your hand out infront of the barcode and stair at it waiting for the voice only to realize your being stared at by everyone lol
NO! Everyone should at least work this job once in their lives to know how hard these are, i have massive respect for these warehouse workers. Dont 💩 on other people jobs
Oh yes, I remember working Freezer Bid nightshift. It was great for someone like me who just loves the cold. Plus, we kept our extra pay no matter what part of the warehouse we where in. Depending on performance, I could make over $30/h as a new hire.
Worked at US Foods for 10 years. Was a picker for all 10. This brings me back. Worked freezer, dry, and chill. Started in freezer but ended up hating it the most. You’re either freezing cold or sweating hot in the warm suit they give you. No in between

@@jameone5000 actually started doing sorting recently. Much less repetitive as you have to keep your tounge in your mouth to not fuck up where what goes etc. Although much, much colder to be in the -25 temps when you're not moving as much ad when you do pluck and packing.
Thanks for keeping everyone fed, paying the bills, hopefully they value you there. Your only human slow down if you need to.
Sadly some warehouses have time limits and bullshit, if a person takes to long to build a pallet they can get written up and I have a friend who went to work on his day off after riding dirt bikes all day and they actually docked his pay for taking 35 mins to build a pallet when "they" say it can be done in 15 minutes and by "they" I mean the pencil pushing bitches in the office. BTW it was a 500 peice count pallet..
Unfortunately, you can’t slow down in a job like this.
You can brother the job gets easier, i know cause ive done it and still doing it, @@MRLIMELOVER
@@MRLIMELOVERyou’ll get fired
My hat is off to you!!!!
It's people like you that keep us all rolling!!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
This shit should be automated by now.
I worked 2 + years in Dollar General as an order selector on both cooler and freezer, and I liked it since it was a straight forward job but left after my fingers and toes started to feel numb even after I was at home. We had boots and gloves for frozen temperatures but that doesn't matter once you start sweating! My fingers and toes were always numb at work, you had to work very fast in order to stay warm and stop your body to cool down. It is definitely not a job you want to do for many years, but this video brings good memories. One of the hardest jobs out there in terms of physicality.
I found wearing less layers and moving quicker helped keep me from sweating too much or feeling too cold

I have been in this industry for almost 12 years now. I use that type of RF unit at FedEx ground back in 2009 and it was annoying. For order selecting nothing beats the wireless headset in my opinion . Anyone doing this type of work and meeting the standard every day you are a soldier!!
there's now a wireless vest with a speaker. Not a bad option
This looks insanely dystopian, with this dude nearly silently cruising alone, looking at the computer on his wrist and robotically picking up and scanning boxes.

It’s freezing inside that building… legit like Colorado cold 🥶
DUDE, you brought back so many memories. I worked 8 years in a food distribution warehouse in southern MN before joining the army. Best job I ever had. Worked in all 3 department, dry, cooler and frozen and got .25 cents more for working in the freezer. Was very good at my job. The place closed down a few years ago after being bought out a few times. Started off by writing the stop numbers on the boxes then went to stickers and now I am seeing its all electronic, how we have changed. Thank you very much for showing this. It means more to me then you would think.
Hey man I’m working at US Foods right now and it’s $28.25 + incentives I’m making around 33 an hour. They changed it to 10 hour work days but still have to work 6-7 per week. Any tips on stacking? All the old stacks from your time always did it best
@@KelvinUniversity For tips for stacking, heavy stuff on the bottom lol. We surely didnt do it best thats for sure. Lost count how many times someone would put a 6-10 case of product like peaches on top of chips. In 04 when I left, I was making 12.50/hr working Sun-Thurs with every other Friday with a skeleton crew. Would start at about 8PM and get done at midnight during the summer and sometimes not done until 7 am during school year. Would also get a picking bonus which amounted to about $100 a week. Still got one of my picking bonus sheets in my back room.
Man this takes me back to my safeway days keep up the grind brother !!!
Bro thank you for helping make civilized life possible for the rest of us.
Man you work super fast!! I would get fired the first week, I could never keep that tempo without getting stressed
i work in a frozen warehouse too im almost 20. the company is terrible but it pays a lot. start working at 3-4am go off around 3pm. they want you to do a certain number of packages. rookie : 300 per day , advanced : 700 and for the best workers it can go at 1.5k-2k. i was talking with seniors they said they were dead their back is gone but they gotta feed their fam , much respect to everyone doing that yall take care be safe.
Shorter ppl last longer being closer to ground and center of gravity lmao back pain. Knew a guy 6’5 and I’m 5’6 bro was killing his back
So they can go find another job that won’t kill there back and feed there family wtf🤣
Reminds me when I worked at Sysco West Coast Florida,the more you throw the more you made from 2000 to 2005 was a great job made lots of money,but if you picked one wrong product it would cost half your paycheck, made between 700-1200$a week depending on season
Jesus, half of your paycheck for one box that can simply be put back?!
@@TrevorBrass yep it's crazy but they want to make sure the customer gets exactly what they ordered, when you came in to work the mis picks would be sitting on a pallet by the entry doors with the person's initials on the label and everyone would harasse the person, lol good times, mis picks are a no no for Sysco
All of the companies that deliver food case by case out the back of a big rig are brutal with errors. One wrong case usually costs more money than you were paid for your whole shift. So yeah they will take all of your incentive money for even one error.
Reminds me of when I worked at Grocery supply in Houston. They always put the newbies in the 0 degree freezer. Job had me beat, only lasted a month then I quit 😢
I got sick of doing this and got my CDL five years ago. I traveled across the United States several times over & went local driving making $30hr. I’ll never do warehouse work ever again!
30 an hour is too low for CDL bro. Definitely 40-45 you need. Does it increase?
I tried to get into this place.
They make you go through a type of boot camp.
To make sure they're not going to have to pay out the ass for insurance claims.
I can run all day that was no problem, but we were in the training seasonal warehouse and there was absolutely zero air flow.
Would have been absolutely fine if they stuck me in the freezer warehouse though.
Hats off to whoever works at these places because they went through a lot of bullshit
Dude, you have my respect. This is hard and intense work. Especially when you need to be accurate and timely with your work.
As a frozen stocker for a grocery store, this is amazing. the way to made the palate is perfect, thank you for showing us this i can only imagine how much being in that cold sucks (around -2F im very sure)
sheeeeiitt i wish i had that little batman arm computer and motorized pallet scooter when i work at a warehouse. All i had was pen and paper and a shopping cart for the products. I was definitely the fittest i have ever been at that job, absolutely sucked though.
This is why I left this kind of work, left school in 2012 here in the UK, and have worked manufacturing jobs mainly in an engineering stores setting.
It paid well, but factories and warehouses are places where your soul goes to die. Left last month, and I'm now learning to become a bus driver. The best choice I've ever made !
This brings back memories when I worked in SafeWay distribution in Northern California. I lasted for 3 months, I appreciate the men and women that are order selectors it’s a tough job.
I saw a lot of this "on the road" when I was a forklift repair technician. I give pickers mad props, especially the ones "paid by the pick."
You have no idea how much I appreciated the way you wrapped your pallets 😤👏👏👏👏👏
If you ever see a picture with a boot cut straight in half, that was me. Learned the hard way of walking it and turning at the same time. There went my job lol
Hahah I Believe They Used Your Picture/ Incident In The Orientation 🤣😂
This is really relaxing to watch almost like ASMR
it really iss, i fell asleep to it last night lmao so satisfying
As someonr who stocks frozen everyday, this is satisfying to watch.
pmo bro
1:32 I believe those are Ore,Ida products. I work at that factory now owned by Simplot, as a forklift operator. we produce hashbrowns, tatertots, crowns, Obrien's, crinkly fries, and fast-food fries for big names like McDonalds, and Burger King. It's fast paced work I'll say, and being surrounded by people and machines its hard work not running into anything.
Dude i can only dream of being that fast & fluid. Well done.
i can watch this all day long. i love watch these types of videos
This gives me PTSD of my old work... Jesus christ but at least you work with kinda nice boxes, my boxes where all different sizes and packages, it was pain to build the pallete to be stable
damn this type of job is really fetch quest simulator, not to mention them giving him a pipboy while hes there
The a amount of empty pallets is insane that place needs work
The empty pallets are swapped out once the new load arrives , if you notice there is other workers switching out empty ones for new loads.
Ahh, I remember the days of selecting, (I don’t miss it) now I drive for H-E-B I will say it’s a good starting position in the warehouse if your looking to advance. But I knew it wasn’t something I wanted to stay doing.
FUCK. THAT. my trainers took their job waaaaay too serious
Those rabbit jacks are the one warehouse-type machine i never got to use.
And they look fun as FVCK too. Damn.
Why is this so satisfying to watch? Ive worked in a big ass warehouse for a month and its sucking your soul outta your life
As a Lift operator in training at 703, great job partner. Dont stay in selection for too long.
I worked there for 3 weeks & they would give “pep-talks” saying that the reason the H‑E‑B stores are low on stock is because the order selectors “did not meet their requirements” & they make you work even harder than it is, you have aggressive & hostile forklift operators blocking the way. On my first day, my “trainer” (or the guy watching my numbers, he looked like Travis Scott) came up to me & said “why have I been taking too long” I told him simply “uh it’s my first day?”
& he replied “give me a better excuse than that”
WTF?
I quit cause some dude wasn’t paying attention, looking at his Apple Watch & driving really fast. I honked before turning a corner slowly & this guy appeared out of nowhere & we collided. I ended up cutting my knee & I reported it cause they threaten to fire you if you don’t report an accident. They sent both of us to do a drug test & the guy was waiting for me at the parking lot trying to fight me. Hostile work environment in general.
Then they have these stupid “pep-talks” how the order selectors need to pick up the pace because they are “the reason” the H‑E‑B stores are low in stock, oh but when you order curbside pickup, they be giving you a BUNCH of free groceries you didn’t even ask for while also forgetting half of your order. H‑E‑B is a messy company owned by hostile people who do not care for their workers. You literally have to kiss ass to get to the top.
Travis Scott? lol
@@ebdoespushupsyea like the rapper
They should have someone plug those batteries that are beeping into a charger so they don’t have to listen to it anymore!
My favorite part was how I could jog in the cold for 10,12 or 14 hours but when it was time to stop and sweep for 15 minutes I instantly felt cold, tired and sick at the end of my shift.
former PIT driver here... I can feel the pressure ("fast paced environment") to this day through this video, often times working 20 ft above the ground in Brampton, Ontario and then also below the 30s.
I‘ve officially reached this new point of laziness where i don‘t like to do work but instead watch others do their work on youtube
I worked at a DSW warehouse for 3 months and already hated every single second of it, I don’t care how easy or hard the jobs were, the people I worked with were terrible, bosses were terrible, it always took me a long time to walk to the break room cuz how far it is, and I’m only 19 everybody else in there were older then me with kids and families and grandparents, I was the only young guy there
Working at the dillons perishable warehouse as a teamster was one of the most interesting parts of my life. The constant mandatory overtime got to me though.
yo he has the pip boy from fallout
No not quite lol.
Yoooo, I’m getting flashbacks , use to work there when Jeff the TL was in mornings
😂 He's back😂
the cold, the pace of work, the robotic voice that imposes an insane pace, the solitude, the monotony and repetitiveness of the tasks, the intellectual inactivity, and i suppose the low pay. i can't wait for these miserable jobs to be replaced once and for all by robots, courage to you, little ant, from the storage centres
not to mention that you easily lift over a tonne a day and have to bend your back 8,000 thousand times a day :/.
You got all that correct except the pay. Pickers make insane money due to incentive. I worked at a warehouse for a few months years ago and our top picker brought home over 6 figures. Guy was a beast
this looks dope dude wtf are you talking about
@@Michigan4709Where on earth did you work we all make minimum wage, personal trainers pickers who make the most money- annual salary 30000£
Wow i started order picking for budweiser in 2019 i found it to be very therapeutic even tho we also had electric pallet jacks we also pushed metal carts around the warehouse racing one another haha now fast forward 2024 i am now a shift lead on a new third shift replenishing with a forklift we no longer order select watching it go from building pallets and carts to them building a million dollar conveyor belt system has been a drastic change its a challenge every day now but aslong as you take pride in your work the sky is the limit keep going brother !
It’s called moving up in the company and not staying as a lumper/picker/floater. Warehouse supervisors and mangers make upwards of 70k sitting in offices telling YOU to get your numbers up on your orders.
Watching you stack gives me OCD like crazy. I worked in warehouse for 7 years stacking boxes man. keep up the good fight
I used to drive a forklift in a similar styled warehouse was a pain in the ass when there was too many people in the aisle
I did this for over 2 years, then I went to day shift and filled racks. Much easier. I preferred the high reach trucks over the riding pallet jacks honestly. I really ally loved doing the sit down narrow isle man up turret lifts, those were so fun.
i love the horns on the electric equipment *meep meep* lolol🤣🤣
this looks like backbreaking work, thanks for letting the average citizen see what goes on behind the scenes
You’ll hate em if you heard em everyday I used to hear em even when I wasn’t at work
Brings back memories, cause I used to work in a warehouse just like that. But I didn't do what this guy does. I'd unload stocks of retail products on a conveyor belt.
I use to order select similar to what he is doing, but with beer cartons and boxes. I was super fast on the pallet rider 🤣
Mad respect man, warehouse work was the one job I openly quit in the first month absolutely couldn't stand it.
I never get tired of seeing videos of guys working, it seems like they want to go to work..
Let's hope they get paid alright for this physical work.
@@TrevorBrassthey absolutely do not.
@@TheGoldenTNTyes they do. Lots of selecting positions get paid well plus they make incentive
@@TheGoldenTNTyes I work in warehouse also and we get paid shit for the work we do.

Am i the only one feeling the suffering that this man have gone through? Bless this man, I pray for his fortune and health 🙏
I did order picking for like six months and it was so soul sucking I had to get the fuck outta there. I kept looking at the older employees who had been there 20 years or more and it scared the shit out of me.
You must feel like the Terminator with that scan gun, best POV I seen yet

Pallet sticks and shrink wrap laying everywhere. Tight aisles especially around holidays it’s packed packed in there. Long ass pick lists and when you done you just get more stuff to pick. It’s the same shit everyday all day. You leave to go home and still trying to reverse like it’s a forklift 😂 hearing beeps in ya sleep😂
Dude got skills. Most guys just now coming into the game dont move fast even after months. Nice to see there is still hard workers out there. 14-18 hour days are brutal when your coworkers are under a 💯
Appreciate it!
I used to work in the San Marcos location, it was hell working around 130 other selectors all on the floor at the same time getting in each others way. And every other week you had about 20 brand new guys out there because nobody wanted to stick it out. I would never go back to working in that kind of environment.
Great job man. Boy does this bring back memories of when I did the exact same thing. Then I got my cdl and now I drive the trucks that deliver these goods. much respect though ✊️ it's hard work for sure 💪
Man , you gotta take it a little bit easy because you sound like you are going to pass out or have a heart attack due to overexertion...it may be freezing in there but you need to care more about your safety.
Never realized I sound like I was going to have a heart until I went back watched this video. I 100% was taking care of my health. Just some light cardio
If this is anything like ace distribution center they’re paid on how fast they fill orders…
he is wearing a mask 😒
If you have not done this type of work before, then you wouldn’t understand, especially moving quick in freezer or even cooler, and you’re doing this for 8-12 hours, if not more. So imagine breathing like this basically all day until your breaks 😂
Downy soft take. Dude sounds like anyone running a physical job. You breathe harder because you are working harder.
POV videos of people doing their job is my new passion, they're so mesmerizing
looks like morden pipboy from fallout

I used to have a job just like this. Except it was a cherry picker and I had to go up and down to the different shelving levels.
You’re a genius recording yourself doing this job man. Lots of views basically making money on TH-cam while you make money working.
Nice vid. If HEB offered 150% incentive I’ll consider leaving Walmart but I heard they max out at 120 😬
Thank you brother. The max incentive is 115%, what a bummer.
