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''.
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.
@@tristizzy of course I did I have time for that 7 seconds for each case . 180 cases 7 Isles 32 minutes for it time never stopped . when I was a selector we didn't have those fancy computers everything was done with the labels
This video reminds me of why my backs all fucked up. Learn a trade and start your own company kids, if you're gonna tear yourself up at least do it for yourself.
i worked in a frozen food shipping place exactly like this when i was 15 or 16. one of the freezers was -35 degrees. It was a hard job and I was terrible at it. I still have nightmares about it 21 years later...those pipboys seem like they would have been helpful!
These are the most depressing mentally draining jobs I will never go back there’s so many factors the soundings the constant repetitive sounds and actions I didn’t use the wrist thing and I’m glad I didn’t i would have probably put my head thru the wall u are my hero bro fr 🙌
@@westernsellers9148yea its all about what your mindset is for me i just couldn't take it anymore the bs parameters that were against you was ridiculous like the % drops from being late on break or just random problems you would face that you cant control that would dock your pay you could be running 100 all week just to have it dropped by some dumb break or system issues etc
I worked warehouse for 7 years, learned how to operate every single forklift. I worked a job just like this for one week, quit it asap because I couldn’t stand talking to a robot at 4am and it not understanding me, probably the most infuriating experience 😂 i do commercial CDL driving now, don’t regret the Jobs or experience, met a lot of good people. The only thing I would say is use this as a stepping stone to get to where you need to go, while going to school or learning a trade skill, unless you wanna end up 50 yrs old complacent doing something that a 18 year person can do with little experience and the same pay. As you can tell the person in the video has a good attitude which is important, get your paper to support yourself and family, then get your skills up on the side to get to the next chapter of your life. God bless always ❤
Meanwhile I'm at the dock waiting to get loaded saying " man hurry tf up I've been here 4 hours " hahaha jk thank you for your service dude that seems brutal u can already feel my back hurting watching this
This is absolutely wild to see, I work a stock crew in a grocery store and I've Broken down and thrown thousands of these pallets into shelves. Very cool thanks for the vid!!!
Wait I work at a car dealer ship, have you hauled cars and if so where do they usually come from where do you pick them up if not directly from the factory?
Order selector is one of the most unique/rewarding and challenging jobs out there. Did this for years and trained 1000s. One of the only jobs that you get or don’t. Hardly ever a middle ground with time based production. Great job and awesome stacks my friend.
I worked for a company as a selector like this for 3 years and was really good at it but it didn't stop the fact that I hated every minute of it. I'm now working from home but I wake up thankful that I don't have to be in a cooler or freezer ever again. I made some awesome friends and had enjoyable moments but in the end it really did suck the life out of you.
Worked at the Aldi warehouse in O'Fallon, MO for 10 years, and most of that time was spent in the freezer just like this. The memories this just brought back were great, and terrible at the same time. Be safe!
i work at the Aldi warehouse in South Windsor CT it’s been almost 2 months everyone’s awesome there, orders get rushed sometimes but for the most part it’s a pretty chill environment
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
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. It was nice money but I wore down my body and then I found people selling solar for half a Mil a year by just walking around town giving people cheaper electric bills. This world is wild.
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.
Worked for HEB distribution center for about 3 years, glad I was never on frozen side. Dreaded going in everyday, but it kept me in shape and it was easy to move up.
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.
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'm one of those freaks of nature that loves working logistics. however I do fully intent on starting my own company one day. first I want to learn more and save more for it to ensure success. I really enjoy being part of the industry that actually keeps the world running
@@1greaf thank you that's Very nice of you. I feel much more useful and impactful now with what I do than at any point serving in the military yet in the military I was getting thanked constantly by people that were probably more important to the functionality of the country than I ever was yet now you're the first one to hear me say I work logistics and not brush it off as a "low skill job"
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 😢
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.
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 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!
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)
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!!
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 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.
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 💪
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 !
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.
this brought me back to the time i worked warehouse. it was fun, great activity, you dont have to talk to anyone, you just work. my nightmares began tho when stopping at the frozen brocolli (the boxes fell apart and were so heavy packed with ice) and I pull up and the system tells me "pick 12" and im like come on :( love your attitude. singing at work having fun. all the best to you
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
doing this rn in -5. different pallet truck though and those plastic pallets slide so easy😭 my full time average has to be 200 an hour in freezer and like 780 in tower. but i’m usually in floor throwing. cheese, meat, freezer, produce. fun job
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.
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 😂
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.
I used to do refrigeration work for places like this. It was always fun to just sit up by the evaporators and watch people buzz around like little ants or something.
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
Glad the manager/supervisor liked you and gave you some good picks instead of giving you clean up duty and filling up single piece picks for like 20 locations
Worked in an amazon fulfillment center for wrap down 3rd shifts. Wanted the money to pay off my car while in school and working my actual full time job. Mind numbing work, but everyone I worked with had good work ethic. Would never want to do that work again, but I do feel better knowing that work like this exists pretty much anywhere and will pay you enough where you’re not homeless.
Working at the HEB super regional warehouse right now and it’s good (in my opinion) going into my 2nd year there and doing college, would really recommend this job if you can handle it mentally, good pay and good hours, plus the overtime is great
freezer looks easy af.. pick it and stick it. a lot of the boxes you move were just fine where they were. youd be surprised how much easier that job feels once you can get the hang of touching it only one time. cool video!
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.
Did this for a year and a half at Trader Joe's distribution center back in 2012-2014, this really takes me back. Not the kind of thing someone should do long term but at the time I really enjoyed it
I did freezer/dairy/deli at walmart during the start of covid for a year, it was absolutely brutal! We were always short handed and people always calling in so we usually did 12-14 hr days. Overtime was crazy but i still dont miss that job.
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
I work at a Target DC and this is basically what our carton floor function is. shit absolutely kills your back. The perk of the way you guys do it is definitely pulling full cartons, as we often have to pull partial cartons or a single item from a carton. Makes things much more tedious. Also, not sure what the production standards are for your location but man you move extremely quick. Feels like I was watching you burn yourself out pretty quick at times. I remind myself it's a marathon not a sprint, so work hard but don't kill or hurt yourself.
Best POV ong keep up the content bro!
100%%% ima need some more of this content !

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 🤣
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
You must feel like the Terminator with that scan gun, best POV I seen yet
This bring back memories. I worked at LV Warehouse Publix in Lakeland Florida. Good Times , Hard Job. Hats off to you bro.
this brings me back to when I worked at USCS.
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.
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.
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.
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 !
They should have someone plug those batteries that are beeping into a charger so they don’t have to listen to it anymore!
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
worked in a non-refridgerated HEB warehouse, more or less the same thing, you're hella fast and set your boxes up perfect, i was so sloppy haha
Nice work , greetings from Brazil
Dude i can only dream of being that fast & fluid. Well done.
this brought me back to the time i worked warehouse. it was fun, great activity, you dont have to talk to anyone, you just work. my nightmares began tho when stopping at the frozen brocolli (the boxes fell apart and were so heavy packed with ice) and I pull up and the system tells me "pick 12" and im like come on :(
love your attitude. singing at work having fun. all the best to you
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
doing this rn in -5. different pallet truck though and those plastic pallets slide so easy😭 my full time average has to be 200 an hour in freezer and like 780 in tower. but i’m usually in floor throwing. cheese, meat, freezer, produce. fun job
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.
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.
Respect to the hard workers. I work in logistics too, as reachtruckdriver, picker and planner on the office. We logistic bois know what working is!
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.
I used to do refrigeration work for places like this. It was always fun to just sit up by the evaporators and watch people buzz around like little ants or something.
Nicely done! Would you advise how many order lines can you pick in an hour please?
Yoooo, I’m getting flashbacks , use to work there when Jeff the TL was in mornings
😂 He's back😂
What’s the temp? I used to work in -40 for weeks at a time up north. In Canada you can use your property as a fridge or freezer for a lot of the year.
I remember doing this with walmart pdc and it’s not bad as long as you keep your pace. The pay is even greater with quarterly bonuses
Are you aloud to share where this is, also sick pace man and great result on your workout !!!
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
Watching you stack gives me OCD like crazy. I worked in warehouse for 7 years stacking boxes man. keep up the good fight
Glad the manager/supervisor liked you and gave you some good picks instead of giving you clean up duty and filling up single piece picks for like 20 locations
Worked in an amazon fulfillment center for wrap down 3rd shifts. Wanted the money to pay off my car while in school and working my actual full time job.
Mind numbing work, but everyone I worked with had good work ethic.
Would never want to do that work again, but I do feel better knowing that work like this exists pretty much anywhere and will pay you enough where you’re not homeless.
Working at the HEB super regional warehouse right now and it’s good (in my opinion) going into my 2nd year there and doing college, would really recommend this job if you can handle it mentally, good pay and good hours, plus the overtime is great
If this was a vr game i would absolutely play it, looks fun and enduring.
freezer looks easy af.. pick it and stick it. a lot of the boxes you move were just fine where they were. youd be surprised how much easier that job feels once you can get the hang of touching it only one time. cool video!
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.
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
Did this for a year and a half at Trader Joe's distribution center back in 2012-2014, this really takes me back. Not the kind of thing someone should do long term but at the time I really enjoyed it
I did freezer/dairy/deli at walmart during the start of covid for a year, it was absolutely brutal! We were always short handed and people always calling in so we usually did 12-14 hr days. Overtime was crazy but i still dont miss that job.
god this makes me remember when i cared about my job
did this job years ago but in chilled, it drove me to a breakdown. I drive trucks for a living now and could never go back
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
added the experience to my résumé
used to do this everyday except it was welding equipment lol. keep it up man
Do you take a break after that session? or do u have to go right back into the freezer?
looks like morden pipboy from fallout
A pipboy with Windows CE...
Have any of these H-E-B warehouses gone partially or fully automated? If not, do they plan on going automated in the near future?
The cold can be rough but at least frozen cases are usually on the lighter side.
Those rabbit jacks are the one warehouse-type machine i never got to use.
And they look fun as FVCK too. Damn.
"Don't get dizzy" while wrapping the pallets was funny
I work at a Target DC and this is basically what our carton floor function is. shit absolutely kills your back. The perk of the way you guys do it is definitely pulling full cartons, as we often have to pull partial cartons or a single item from a carton. Makes things much more tedious.
Also, not sure what the production standards are for your location but man you move extremely quick. Feels like I was watching you burn yourself out pretty quick at times. I remind myself it's a marathon not a sprint, so work hard but don't kill or hurt yourself.
Brooo i used to select at the warehouse in san mo texas , please do more of these😂brings backs memories of a simpler time
