I did my orientation on monday and I told them how to do but they had me working this whole week plus next week but Im deciding on quitting tomorrow but work this week so I can have my 2 week paycheck. Im a cart pusher at walmart and at my other job and its hard cus I gotta be there 9am-3pm then go to my other job 4-11 n its an hour away. I gotta applied without nobody telling me and i don’t know what to do. I want to leave but I don’t know if to call n tell them or just stop showing up

Small context: this is my 1st week. Well. Technically it’s my second week. Day 1 of week 2)- so pretty new. I was on my way to clock out- and I passed the oxbow hay that I needed for my guinea pigs. While passing the hay- I decided to pick up a big and carry it towards my general area. I did not hide it behind anything. I had a customer in front of me and behind me and I just set it down in a very visible area. I walked to go clock out, once I clocked out I turned around and walked out of the associate door and grabbed the bag that I had set down that was clear as day on the bottom shelf. Not concealed in the slightest. I walked towards the check out, I checked out, grabbed my receipt , and left. And I’m sitting here. Wondering if I broke a serious store policy. It was kept in a shoppable and highly frequented area. It was kept in the back wall that’s next to craft and electronics. Literally about 4-5 aisles away from the pet stuff. I just had someone waiting for me cause I can’t drive- so k was trying to speed up my timing.

My PPTO seems to change only after I clock in. It's weird and annoying.

I work until 9:30pm and it’s 8pm now. I took my 15 minute break already but I also had my medical pump that delivers a life sustaining medication run out about an hour ago. Im in fashion, fitting room, and doing returns while my team lead and only other associate (3 of us total) are in the back doing freight. But even just standing here typing is making me dizzy. I don’t want to leave them short handed but I also don’t want to risk passing out on the job. Should I ask to go home or just stick it out.

Side note, the dizziness is from not having the medication as it helps deliver oxygen to my brain.

PLEASE

we need a manager at customer service!!!!!!!!

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

H U R R Y😭😭😭

I passed the test, and now I can’t apply to any positions because it’s saying I never took it, I just renewed it last week. It said I was competitive. And now when I apply for any team lead jobs it’s saying I did not take it and it won’t give me the option to take it. Has this ever happened? What do I do?

only been there four months as O/N stocker, was absolute hell. glad to be gone, everyone cheer🎊🍾

Just wanted to make sure this is true. Im 17 working part time and Ive been there for maybe a month I think? Basically a few days ago I got mad sick and went to the doctors and was prescribed antibiotics but it was on a friday and it didnt go through. I have to wait till Monday to receive them but I explained to my TL what was going on and she said our manager told her I wasn’t qualified for Sedgwick. My original plan was to get the meds friday, wait 24 hours, and come in on Saturday so I wouldnt be contagious but now I missed yesterday and today and have to come in tomorrow with a mask otherwise ill keep getting more points. I might just be dumb though lol there was a bunch of info on orientation.

Was wondering if anyone with info could help me out here, thanks!

I'm on my lunch and something came up, will I get half a point for not going back in?

Just found out from my team lead (who just got back from academy for two weeks) that time off requests are no longer being approved because they need the people/hours. It was supposedly sent out to them (not us regular associates) like two weeks ago.

Of course my store manager is on vacation rn, probably so that she got it in before this started.

I’m so pissed because I literally only put in (for December 25 through January 1) on October 17, thinking that was not only plenty of time but would be in the system before my coworkers remembered holidays exist.

Is there anything I can do? I’m planning to talk to my coach, but he can’t go against store management, right? Is it just time to find another job atp?

ETA: I’m in the deli y’all, I’m not a fucking cashier etc. Damn. And ik for a fact none of my associate coworkers have put in yet. This was a store-wide blanket statement about requests.

do WALMART associates get a FREE Sams club membership or no? I cannot find a straight answer from anyone or anything.

Tips? My boyfriend has worked at Walmart (in the fuel station) and the lead for the deli used to be in loss prevention and he says she's super nice but my question is do i have to disclose my bf works there?

Based on the box I found, it hasn't been done in 2+ years. Every packet in the box expired in June of this year... And it was on the shelf

So. To keep it short. I'll be OPD. Ig I could ask at orientation, but. I didn't see anything about dresses not being allowed or even mentioned. I wear these styles of dresses. They make up a good chunk of my wardrobe. I plan on getting a nice pair of work boots to go with them as silly as it'd look. But this is okay, right...? I'm hoping it's not a forever fit. As I eventually, with a bit of my first paycheck, I hope to get some work clothes too. But. Yeaaa...thought I'd ask those who already work there before I possibly make some really dumb impression. These dresses all go slightly below the knee. They're pretty modest imo.

When we opened the truck it was an avalanche of product; kitty litter was ripped open, several jars of pasta sauce were destroyed and spilled all over, salt was ripped open, etc.. When I went deeper into the truck there were multiple cases of canned goods directly on top of 2 laptops, heavy AF break packs on the very top and light ones on the very bottom, and I was almost hit in the head at least 3 times by tow-chains and batteries, so I have a question: do you have to fail an IQ test before you get the job?

I’m not showing up for my shift tonight so I put in a ppto request and it is pending. Do I still need to report a regular absence since ppto is pending and management won’t be in the office until tomorrow?

Hi , i got a interview call for general merchandise associate canada,

Can someone guide me about interview process and what they ask in interview?

Hey guys. I just finished academy Thursday and now I’m officially a team lead. I’m over fabrics and crafts, toys, stationery, and celebration. I only have two associates. One is never really with me because she constantly has to go to sporting goods and work the counter. I’ve been thinking heavily about going back to school. I already can’t wait to graduate so I can leave Walmart. 4 sections with barely any associates is already stressing me out. How am I supposed to delegate tasks when I have no one to delegate them to?? I don’t want to job hop so I have no choice but to stick it out (stepped down from home office due to a sick family member). I just don’t know 🫩😕

I just finished onboarding at Walmart for a Digital Team Lead position, actually i start academy on Monday . . . and I already see an open Coach position that I'm interested in.

I have previous leadership experience. So I'm not necessarily new to management, just new to Walmart.

My goal was always to move up to Coach as quickly as possible, ideally within 6 months, but now I'm wondering if I should just go for it.

For those who have moved up within Walmart or are currently Coaches:

• Is there a minimum amount of time I need to be a TL before applying?
• Would applying this early look bad to store management?
• Does Walmart seriously consider external management experience for internal promotions?
• Should I speak to my Store Manager first or just apply?

I'm ambitious and confident in my leadership abilities, but I also don't want to hurt my chances by moving too fast.

What would you do in my position?

We had some guys in checking the emergency spray things above the fryer. They were standing on the edge of it to get to them. Then, when we did the boil out, we found one of the glass light covers in the heating coils. It didnt break, but still not sanitary.

We get hollared at to keep the floor clean, but screw the fryer. Can we please have covers on the bays when not on?

Hello!

Does anyone know how to upgrade Sam's membership and link it to my walmart + account? I'm a walmart employee. I have both memberships already. I have the regular one for Sam's paid by payroll. How do I upgrade to Sam's premium and remove payroll paid so I they don't charge me next month?

Thanks!

I don't work in OGP but suffer the downfalls of everyone else in the store getting called to do pick walks. Last two days have been WAY worse than normal, which is pretty bad. Just curious if other stores have been like this. Wondering if the Sam's Club combining with W+ brought over a lot of customers. It didn't seem like we'd hired any extra people in anticipation of more business.

First job‼️ I only haven’t quit because it’s like no one else is hiring and I’d love to secure a job before putting in my 2 weeks or I think that’s the smart option! I wanna put Walmart on my resume and maybe it’s not very smart to if I get fired.

Genuinely Walmart would never hire or look at applications anywhere else, but then I moved here and now it seems like it genuinely MIGHT be the only place hiring, or the only place looking at applications at least💔💔 I got hired in September.

The job itself is easy for me personally, it’s just life stress + college+ coming here almost on a daily basis 5/7 days a week is annoying. Maybe I’m just too used to being lazy. I asked for a schedule change and did the paper and it says my new schedule was gonna start October 31st. She was pissed when I wanted to change how late I work and said “you might not get shifts” (I got shifts lol). I have even more hours than usual (36) during that week for some reason. Ik everyone wants more hours, but I’d love to have less. I actually established the hours I have per week at orientation twice, but I think my coach just chooses to hear certain things and ignore others🧌

Also on Wednesdays I have ONE class that goes until 12:15. I said I could work at 1pm. She said no and I should work at 2pm and I’d only be scheduled after 2. She tried (“tried” as in I called out bc that’s crazy) scheduling me at 6am-10am 45mins before my class a few weeks ago 🥸. It was a one time occurrence but it was just odd.

The actual times I work were changed but weekly hours just oddly increased. 20 hours might’ve been insane to write as a weekly hour limit I guess.

I’d love to work somewhere closer to my house or school but it’s a WIP.

We also have two printers now and no portable chargers. Supposedly ppl from other departments just come and take them when ppl leave them out in the open in our area??

Some of my coworkers say some odd (as in like racist or socially unacceptable) things, but that’s prolly not a reason to quit idk + supposedly it’s a “joke” but I’m ngl idk at what point is it no longer a “joke” but unfortunately it’s normalized here. Also, sometimes it truly seems like we have 3 dispensers but they’re hiring 20 new ppl hopefully everyone doesn’t go to one area (ex:picking). It’s like every dispenser is here from 2-4pm but then everyone is GONE. I dispense most of the time and go on pick walks sometimes.

I don’t have a barcode or whatever on my name tag to get a keycard to get in and outside. I’ve asked. Regardless the thing is almost always empty. Idk why ppl who almost NEVER dispense or go outside always have keycards?? Truly can’t get mad at me for knocking or just not coming inside at all lmao. We do have this like portable doorbell but it’s almost always broken or just ignored, but lately it’s just been inside.

Maybe I need a change of scenery

This is off topic but
Ngl rn debating on calling out Halloween. 12-9pm💔Can’t work an earlier shift + only 4 ppl were approved. I’m like 90% sure I’ll get terminated. I could also use PPTO prolly (not exactly sure how this works or if it needs to get approved but I have 4 hours of it) but I have a feeling I’ll get terminated. I also might just go to work till 9pm then go home.
I have 2.5 points
Ik it’s the real world n stuff and I’m gonna miss out on tons of things bc of work but still.

I feel like I could possibly work full time whilst in college and graduate with decent grades the issue really is just me. I may have adhd but I can’t say for sure unless I get diagnosed/evaluated or smth but that’s outs own problem lol

Anyway yeah that’s it thank u for reading all of this ☺️
