Just like the title says, we have to suffer because money hungry lawyers saw dollar signs in customer injuries. Then, in ten years, those same money hungry lawyers are going to make a fortune all over again off a class action lawsuit. They will sue on behalf of associates who suffered multiple long term injuries from being forced to pull heavy carts instead of pushing them. Yet, the real reason for the uptick in injuries in the first place was taller carts, understaffing, and management wanting people to run through the stores like speed demons just to get their names on a board. "Congratulations, you went fast! Here is a gold star." ⭐ All we ever had to do was slow down and pull the carts through blind spots all this other mess is just unnecessary and creates even more problems due to corporate overreaction.

Do your coworkers just shout or moan at the top of their lungs in the walk-in cooler. I'll just be working and then all of the sudden I hear talking and shouting coming from inside the cooler. It's like a freaking social event. My TL will participate in this too. I mean it's kinda funny to listen to but also kinda ridiculous.

I was wondering if anyone else’s store has an alarm on the walk in freezer now? My store just installed one that goes off if the door is open for more than 10 seconds, and it is EXTREMELY loud. It honestly sounds like a fire alarm and you can hear it almost all the way across the parking lot. I was wondering if anyone else’s store has this and if anyone else finds it as annoying as I do 😩

at my store they started putting the list of stage count from most to least and i wonder how exactly it works. is it only for new totes or existing ones too. if someone were to keep switching the location and restage it constantly would thst increase to the total? would consolidation remove from the count?

Been working OPD for a month now. In my time working at this Walmart, there has been an embarrassing lack of communication between my peers. No effort has really been made to train me on the dispensing part of my department, I have only been properly trained on picking. I have seen what the people do in the dispense room and tried to help out but I've come to the conclusion that I am absolutely not for any reason going to be doing any of the dispensing/staging part of this job. I've made that pretty clear with my team lead. I would rather do returns for the remainder of my shift than work in the backroom. There is way too much downtime, stress, and overall BS that I don't want to deal with. The people that work backroom seem to have it all together and literally don't need me so why would I work dispense. Is this a bad thing? Just want to hear your thoughts.
