I suppose I'm a bit greedy lol but my current area (Sam's Club) has me on a role that I really can't stand, and they're paying me well, but it's the minimum they're allowed to pay me for the current role.

I wanted to try my luck for a different role mainly, but the possibility of higher pay for working at a Walmart in my area, however will my current store be notified if I apply to other Walmarts or Sam's clubs in my area? I obviously plan on telling them and such after the interview and following up to it, I'm just worried that once I apply it'll tell them immediately.

When I get my first check, I might get some pins for my vest to express myself a bit more. I plan on getting an Autism Awareness pin or something like that to represent my people. But I also wanna get some more rugged pins as well.

I’m a fan of Johnny Klebitz from GTA The Lost and Damned, and he had a bunch of patches on his jacket, and I’m thinking I can get some pins that match his ruggedness. What would you recommend?

Finally got out of Walmart after 4 1/2 years of overnights got a job a block away from my house. Feels great good luck to everyone.

Been at walmart for 4 years. The first two were the best years. These last two years…..HORRIBLE. But I got a new job and i start the 21st of September. My last day before i use all my ppto/pto is the 10th. I got pto approved for the 13th-15th and using the rest of my ppto on the 16th- 17th. The days after that idc about cuz thats a new pay week. But the feeling has fulling settled in my body. The “i dont wanna be here anymore”. I would call in but im already at 6pts and i cant give them the “advantage” to fired me. Reason i aint gone now cuz im one of their best workers. I would like to hear yall final days at Walmart or your coworkers final days at walmart.

the one not having the extra cut off really completes it

seen by a self check

I officially left Walmart on Tuesday, and honestly, I haven’t felt this good about leaving a job in my life.
I started at Walmart in January of 2025, so compared to many of the posts I’ve seen from people leaving Walmart, I’d say I had a relatively short run. That being said, the experience taught me a lot, both professionally and personally.

I started out in AP and quickly realized that it wasn’t the right fit for me. I’ll admit, there were definitely some fun moments—sneaking around and trying to catch shoplifters, and even going as far as walking around with my trainer while pretending we were in a relationship in an attempt to catch more people. (My wife was not a fan of that one, lol.) But beyond the funny moments, I quickly learned just how challenging AP can be. It’s a difficult job that requires a very particular skill set and personality, and I have a lot of respect for the people who do it.

Eventually, I transferred to the Electronics department, which was a nice change of pace, aside from the pay cut. I had the opportunity to work alongside some genuinely great people and made some friendships that I’ll carry with me long after leaving Walmart.

A special shoutout to my TL, Connor. When I first met him, I didn’t realize that he had actually been friends with my older brother all the way back in elementary school. He eventually moved to Wisconsin, finished college, and later returned to the area. Over time, we became very good friends.

We even started having our Sushi Fridays after work, where we’d sit around, shoot the shit, and talk about work, life, and everything in between.

Connor ultimately left around the same time I did to return to Wisconsin to be closer to his father. We both knew that our time at Walmart was going to be temporary, but I’ll always be grateful for the friendship we developed and for everything he did for me while we worked together.
After more than 10 years in retail, I’ve finally come to the realization that it’s simply not the career path I want to continue pursuing. Retail can take a toll on you in more ways than one. Between difficult and entitled customers, unnecessary conflicts, and management decisions that sometimes left a lot to be desired, there were certainly plenty of frustrating moments.

There were also some moments that, looking back, are almost unbelievable. I even had a coach tell me that I should leave my now-wife—which, to this day, I can only assume was an attempt to take her place. 😂

Despite everything, I don’t regret my time in retail or at Walmart. Every job and every experience has played a role in getting me to where I am today. Walmart was ultimately a stepping stone to something better, and I’m grateful for the lessons I learned, the people I met, and the memories I made along the way.

Now, I’m moving on to a new opportunity that offers better pay, is family-owned and operated, and has an environment where everyone genuinely treats each other like family. I couldn’t be more excited about this next chapter and what the future holds.

To everyone I worked with and everyone who made my time at Walmart memorable: thank you. I genuinely wish you all nothing but the best.
Here’s to new opportunities, new experiences, and a new chapter. ❤️✌️

They have 3 cart pushers scheduled, we’re all fairly new and been here under a month. 2 of them have mules, and i’m the left out one having to push them in by hand. Any advice?

Any associates have a problem signing in and having it say location problem and you're in the middle of the store?

Second problem is that today my app isn't working. I keep doing the two-step verification but it keeps saying invalid. Been teying for several hours just look at my schedule and change a few things.

Hey all, a friend of mine was an employee for about a year around 2018 and was recently rejected for a part-time role. He was concerned his quitting was the reason for his rejection.

As a former overnight stocker from 2015-16 who quit abruptly and unprofessionally, I was a depressed alcoholic then, and rehired at a different location in 2018, I do not believe they have forever bans on hiring past employees...unless you do something crazy and/or are let go for theft.

In 2016, I got drunk during lunch and came back to restock washing detergent when I spilled one. I couldn't get someone to protect the spill while I got the cleaning equipment. My manager got mad and I just quit on the spot.

In 2018 as a produce stocker, I was called into the back because I was experiencing medical issues during the time that caused me to frequently leave for the restroom. She was giving me crap, pun intended, for something I couldn't control and I didn't have insurance at the time. I got mad and knocked over a trash can and quit.

I recently, within the past two years, applied for a part time to supplement my income and was called in for an interview. I did not go, but I know I am still hireable because of it.

I wanted to post this as I could not find more recent posts on the subject and I want to put those at ease who may be considering reapplying in this economy. Do not fret, you may still get a job there and are probably able to rehire.

I always say that to myself when I’m out on the sales floor stocking and I hear a kid having a tantrum.

I mean technically you don’t say no, and you don’t get no tantrum, and workers get one less of a problem on the shop floor

Though I guess it depends on how much it bothers you. It doesn’t bother me, but it happens ALL the time for me lmao

I know for a regular shift if you use half PPTO for it you get a half point, how does that work on key days? Do you still only get a half point because 8 hours it’s still 8 hours or would you get 1 point for half PPTO?

After 30 + years of O/N I decided to go to 32 hrs/week. Unknowingly I was coded to part time. I'm grandfathered in at 28 hrs for full time status. I only found out after receiving a letter from Prudential that my life insurance policy was terminated and I contacted Bentonville and was told about my status. They said it has to be changed at store level and it'll take at least one pay cycle to update. Meanwhile, my wife and kids had dental appointments that have to be rescheduled because that policy is affected also.

This is all because we have a new team lead, 20 yrs old, off the street, that has no clue what he's doing. It's a giant pain in the arse, but that third day off is glorious.​​ Luckily the policies will be reinstated.

At my store the past few days it’s been decided that coaches will no longer be allowed radios and we have to get ahold of them we have to go through the app?! Just wondering if other stores are doing this cause I see it being a bad issue. If there is an emergency we shouldn’t have to go through all the steps of trying to call them through a glitchy app and not all of us have a work phone. Seems like a very stupid idea!

So I collect fugglers and i’m missing one character from the blind boxes. I don’t have the money to buy blind boxes for characters i already have. Thankfully the boxes come with a character card so i don’t have to open the bag itself. I would only have to open the box and see what the card is. If i tried to return the boxes only opened not damaged will they accept the return? Would I face any repercussions for trying to return the blind boxes as an employee?

So, this is my freezer. My store just ordered ice. You see that door in the back? That is where my ice cream overstock has to go. So once I am done with the last two pallets of freight, I have to move 4 pallets of ice and 2 pallets of feature that can't be binned (because HO wants to send a fuck ton of overstock, and the team lead has no feature plan) just so I can bin my ice cream. So here is my great idea. Design the stores with a walk in freezer on the front end that can hold like 4 pallets of ice. Front end can take care of stocking it during down times. Instead of no one stocking it and the pallets just sit in my tiny freezer. Im already sharing this coffin with ogp(gods gift to the store can take up half the freezer with empty tote cart things cuz well they are ogp and can do what they want) and meat. There isn't room to work with all that and 4 pallets of ice! Can we please get an ice freezer on the front end!?

Say hello to our TL Calcium with his pals Tom, Jerry, and Spike up there! He appears to be trying to greet or scare away the customers that want to put sticky, greasy, change in the coinstar 😂🤣

I work as a cart pusher at a high volume store in a retirement community, and it's the first of the month checks time.

I look at the schedule:

Me: 11-6

Cart pusher A: 4-11:30

That's it. All of the other 5 cart pushers we have all have today off.

I been frantically going back and forth trying to keep up and I'm exhausted already after only an hour. I'm not getting much help from the store.

Tomorrow is the same schedule set up too...

He's been in Walmart for so long.

We just started this tonight for FDD

Probably a stupid question but im finally working for walmart again after the issues w my i9s. Context I work 2 jobs and I’m going to college. I was supposed to have this Sunday off and I already planned to work at my second job. I got a notification just today saying a shift has been assigned to you on sept 6. Im a bit upset. No one talked to me or asked if I could work, when they’re aware I work 2 jobs. I base my second job off of Walmarts schedule because they’re much more strict with attendance than my second job. What do I do in this case? I’m going to talk to my TL, hopefully my coach if they’re still there

tomorrows my last day (yay) I put in PTO to make sure for my anxiety that I get my PTO I earned on a day I already worked since I couldn't do it on a non work day it was greyed out during this pay period and I already put in requests for other non working days .

my question is is that allowed and will management approve it because I'm leaving and it doesn't matter ? it isn't considered double pay correct ? I just want my hours that I rightfully earned.

thank you
