I got a job at Walmart as a Digital Shopper

what am I supposed to do? I hate working and I might be slow so what if they fire me
>>
>>538828787
pack my slop wagie. get to it!
>>
are you actually working for Walmart or are you doing it through a third party like Spark or Instacart.
>>
>>538829037
I am actually an employee of Walmart.
The two department managers are two young black men and one of them seemed to like me a lot in the interview and I was hired on the spot
>>
>>538829268
alright good luck
>>
>>538829268
Used to run an opd department. Just dont be retarded and you'll be fine. Had women with literal breast cancer who could easily pick at 100.
You'll be slow for your first two weeks but you'll pick it up quick.
>>
>>538829368
Thank you. I have heard it is almost impossible to be fired as long as you show up because companies are afraid of being sued or something but I think that is more for high paying jobs not minimum wagie jobs

Please dont buy the expensive versions of the items your buyers didnt tell you to buy just refund them and let them sort it out

If your buyer wants $10 for 10 oz of smoked salmon dont buy 4 2 oz bags smoked salmon for $15 when he want to pay $10 for 10

im not jewish
>>
>>538829475
I did hear that number of 100 per hour that sounds like a lot and I heard this job has high turnover rate
>>
>>538828787
you work there until you're drafted or destroyed in nuclear fire. it should be within a few months for the draft, probably by the end of this year or the next for all out nuclear war.
>>
>>538829531
Yeah, thats not true. There's a process but you can absolutely be fired, as long as your managers arent retards. Honestly, I had a 6 week process. If people couldn't unfuck themselves in 6 weeks, it was on them.
Funnily enough, my department ended up like 90% white
>>
>>538828787
shut up you fucking fag, you have the easiest job in the whole store and it shouldn't even be allowed in the store because your giant fucking carts left in the middle of the aisle get in the way of the real workers trying to put merch on the shelf.
>>
>>538828787
Be a man and get a job in construction as a day labor. If you eat healthy and don’t drink alcohol you’ll end up in the best shape of your life.
>>
>>538829567
Maybe 20 years ago that would work but today I think absolutely everything is tracked and quotaized like speed and accuracy
>>538829614
Getting a job would help me prepare for those because I could get 2nd amendment and potassium iodide
>>
>>538829595
Its really not fast at all. You'll easily pick at a rate of 130 before long and you won't be rushing.
Most people get fired for attendance or being retarded. But as long as you show up and aren't retarded, you'll be fine
>>
>>538828787
you better not falsely report marketside salads are out of stock a 3rd time wagie
>>
>>538829718
Sorry to break it to you, but that dept is never going away. There's stupid money to be made there
>>
>>538829475
Former coach here


OPD isn't a bad walmart gig, the turn over comes from actually getting the orders out to the customers or the days where people call out sick but the orders were placed hours ago so you can't catch up. Walmart also pays pretty good at the salaried level, you'll make engineer money.
>>
Well then. Good fuckin' luck.

Based buck.

Thats not how that works

6 weeks sounds short but I am a white man so I guess I am easy to fire because no lawyer would take my case https://www.foxnews.com/media/nyc-jury-gives-new-equinox-hire-who-showed-up-late-47-times-11-race-discrimination-report

because Sharts are the laziest people on the planet and they'd rather pay more money than they used to in order to avoid burning calories.
>>
>>538828787
>what am I supposed to do?
Imagine that you're shopping for someone else and that they've given you a list of items they'd like you to buy for them. It's probably like that.
Also, if you hate working, try working faster, as the time will fly by if you're busy.
>>
>>538829837
A month and a half to fix yourself when you're doing shit you're not supposed to is not short
>>
>>538829839
Why not just use DoorDash? It seems like such a waste paying someone else to get your stuff for you
Some people just don’t work hard enough for dey money

You get your steps and reps in working at walmart, especially if you're pulling water/juice pallets with shitty pallet jacks.

>Had women with literal breast cancer who could easily pick at 100
Because they cheat the pick rate you fucking walmart shill, the job is terrible
>>
>>538829931
Yes but I have heard horror stories of people who consistently didn’t work or slept on the job for years before getting fired. Is that more of a corporate or public sector thing?
>>
>>538829837
>I am a white man
Based if true
>>
>>538829969
How do you cheat the pick rate? Did they say they needed accommodations and only had to pick lightweight items?
>>
>>538829839
Its insane to me that we pay people to put things on a shelf and then take things off a shelf. Lots of these instore pickups are placed like 12 hours earlier than the delivery time and could literally be picked and packaged at distribution by amazon type robots and shipped to the store/customer directly without a whole layer

Depends on your objective.
If you're just there to get paid, then do the absolute bear minimum to not get fired. Avoid emotionally engaging as much as you can.
If you want career advancement then you should immediately start talking to your manager about how you can advance in the company. Perform reasonably well but make sure that everything you do is all in the pursuit of advancing your position.
>>
>>538829531
Not even remotely true in America. Just the opposite in fact. That's more a thing in Europe
>>
>>538829722

Hard pass because I don't want to work with insufferable beaners
>>
>>538830028
Is it? I think I can do better than this but I could always quit in like 6 months once I have saved enough money since my expenses are less than a couple hundred dollars a month
>>
>>538830087
InstaShart customers don't plan 12 hours ahead of time, they sit on their couch wearing SpongeBob pants and poke their phone when they get hungry.

Holy shit
>>
>>538830163
No, I was a coach and lots of people would, their order would be sitting in the system a day earlier. Why are we picking these things when they could literally be shipped from the warehouse?
>>
>>538830087
What about impulse purchases?
>>538830115
But I have not had a job in a long time before this so to qualify I would have to work for at least like 6 or 9 months first then I would have to be laid off or something not my fault for losing job
>>
>>538830072
You cheat the pick rate by going to the home screen on your Walmart phone in between the items on the list. When you get to the item you pull the app back up. The app thinks you teleported. You still need to pick 400+ items that shift but you also need to game the rate too. Job sucks.
>>
>>538830210
Lots of people live with parents
>>
>>538830290
I don’t really understand what you mean but I also have not started yet
I assumed it sucked because they needed people in that department so much

>>538830335
Yeah like 50% of people under 30, and quite a few older too. Many have never lived alone.
>>538830153

Good man, no reason to burn your labor-tickets up on useless shit.

>>538828787
That’s embarrassing if you have a degree.

how would this cheat the pick rate. whether you're in the app or not, that doesn't change the length of 1 hour.

Why’s the Walmart symbol just a Star of Remphan “David” turned into some Comic Sans bullshit

Yes I hate working so the less I spend on bread and circuses the less I must work
Even if I invested every dollar of my salary in the stock market it would only give me a few hundred dollars a year
>>
>>538828787
>what am I supposed to do?
shouldn't you know this before you apply?
you receive orders online and bundle them up for the customer to pick up or the delivery nigger to ship out.

This is Walmart’s own app and ordering service not a third party independent contractor setup

>Why’s the Walmart symbol just a Star of Remphan “David”
Because that's what Corporate wanted. Maybe it's just supposed to resemble a flower
>>
>>538830676
But the policy is you only get up to 5 points per 6 months before you are fired and even showing up 11 minutes late is half a point
>>
>>538830153
It's unironically a good thing to have a job.
Reliably show up on time, be sober, try to do the work properly and don't do retarded shit and you're already in the top 50% of employees.
A big company like Walmart unironically would have plenty opportunity for people they know they can rely on once they get to know you.
Good luck anon.

If it doesn’t pay enough to afford an apartment and you are just making lazy rich boomers lives slightly easier by depriving yourself of sleep it doesn’t seem good to me
I will try to do it for a few months so I have an emergency fund but I don’t know if I will be able to bear it any longer than that

walmart attendance is extremely lenient compared to big boy jobs. PPTO (sick time, effectively) builds fast enough that it's a non-issue

So I get paid to not show up? Do I need a doctors note?
If I quit with sick time saved up do I still get paid for them?

You scan items and then put them in a box together for a customer who ordered it online then put it in their car in the parking lot

People who do the soccer mom thing where you pull up and the worker puts the groceries in the trunk.

Congrats. Use them to get your degree.

>>538831277
I will profit from it a little bit but I think this job should not exist as only extremely severely disabled people should even think of using this service
>>
>>538831257
Sounds comfy.
Hows it pay?
>>
You're supposed to get a job in fast food or the restaurant industry to have easy access to hot girls
>>
>>538830943
You are not going to be paid much at the start because you do not know much and are therefore not worth being paid much.
So nigs, drug addicts, zoomers addicted to instant gratification and other lowlifes get stuck at level 1 and say man fuck this shit after a few months because they are unable to long term plan and understand that reputations are earned over time.
Yes it is unfair on those of us who have a go and yes we are making rich fucks richer but that's the way of things I'm afraid and once you know a bit and are useful to the company, you'll be surprised how quickly bosses will be open to paying you more and how they can even stand by you when you face adversity. So best to suck it up and let Goldstein take his cut so you have a chance of being able to provide for a family yourself some years in the future. You're aiming to move up. Better that than whinge about it like a lazy commie retard.
And if they don't appreciate you, take what you've learned and go elsewhere.
You sound young so you have time to build yourself up which is the biggest advantage of all really. Well, except for having rich connected parents. That's the biggest advantage really. But still, being young and having time is good too.
Then make greentext shitposts about your waging on here.

>what am I supposed to do?

Just ask your boss this question and I guarantee you will be given some task immediately.


If you are talking about in terms of life, you should likely give up because you are on a garbage Internet image board website infested with manipulative robots and you are asking this place for advice at a minimum wage job at one of America's largest corporate parasite stores that sell American citizens Chinese products at the lowest possible cost while their own employees get on welfare. Actually yeah that's what you should do you should apply for welfare.
>>
>what am I supposed to do?
Show up. Your manager will show you what to do.
>I hate working
Everyone does
>I might be slow
You will improve. Just don't deliberately slack off.
>what if they fire me
Then you go looking for a new job. In the mean time, they haven't fired you, so you might as well try.
>>
Just digital shop. It’s easy
>>
>>538830275
Then put in a modest effort for 6 months and then quiet quit. It's fucking Walmart, the bar cant be that high. You can't get denied UEbux unless you quit voluntarily or do something completely retarded like call someone a nigger or punch your coworker
>>
>>538831429
Just above minimum wage
>>538831431
That might get you sex but I doubt it will get you a long term relationship

This may have been true 30 years ago but unless your parents are rich there is absolutely no guarantee of a career that is able to support a family not to mention she can just steal all your stuff with divorce at any time. I think NEETS and MGTOW are right
If you work hard you are a sucker unless you are working hard while volunteering to build a men’s domestic violence shelter or something

https://epic.org/jury-finds-meta-and-google-negligent-in-landmark-social-media-addiction-case/

A 17-year-old named Kaley sued Google and Meta, claiming their social media platforms were designed to be addictive and caused her mental health issues, resulting in a jury awarding her $6 million in damages. This case is significant as it highlights the responsibility of tech companies for the impact of their platforms on young users' mental health
>>
>>538831947
But if you quiet quit won’t they put you on a performance improvement plan or something before they fire you so they can leave a paper trail to cover themselves before they fire you

Plenty of people have ended up dating and even marrying people they've met at their restaurant gigs, it's no different from meeting people anywhere else, you'll click with some girls and other girls will just be superficial quick lays.

You can't be denied for poor performance. Performance improvement plans are just HR bullshit large employers do hold lower level managers accountable and protect themselves from wrongful termination lawsuits.

>But it won’t pay enough to give your children a decent life
Once you meet a girl and things start to get serious you begin looking for jobs that pay better or you start going to college for some degree that'll get you a nice job with decent pay.

that's every woman

There never were any guarantees.
And social media promotes the very worst of women. They aren't all like that.

Not unless you do something stupid that would constitute misconduct.

I am not blackpilled I am realistic. Jobs have not paid enough for housing for years
>>538832517
Working extremely slow for the last month before you are fired when you were working fast for the first six months doesn’t count as misconduct? Doesn’t Walmart track scan speed for this job?
>>
>>538828787
your job is to walk around pushing an obnoxious extra-large cart and get directly in the way of every single customer you come across.
have fun taking orders from a 29 year old 87IQ sociopath. might even be a nigger or a 4'8'' woman. who knows
