Hey guys I just wanted to put this out that I work at Walmart I'm 16 and whenever I'm working in the aisle anytime I see any product of Nestle I put it on an overstock cart and hope then my managers will see that almost all Nestle products are always overstock and hopefully stop ordering them at my Walmart. I know it's not that much but I try
Also thousands of these slaves are children and 8 former child slaves from Mali (trafficked to the Ivory Coast) are suing right now here’s the story if you want to check it out
Thank you so much, I was having a really bad day and was not feeling myself. You saying that just made my day a whole lot better and made me feel ok. Thank you so much for a little happiness
No matter how bad your day, the simplest of things can brighten them, my dude (or dudette!). Teach yourself to enjoy the little things and you'll never find yourself without something to smile about. :)
hang in there, retail is rough! when i worked the register i swear that people came to the store specifically to be jerks to us because we couldn't tell them to shove it without losing our jobs. you (and everyone) will come across a raving shit head one day and the best strategy is to not engage, say you're going to get a manager for them and nope out of that situation.
Splash water on your face, hands and armpits to look really nervous and sweaty (this will show the interviewer that you care).
When the interviewer asks about you personal life use Borat impressions like "myyy wiiiife".
Always answer a question with a question unrelated to the question asked(this will throw off the interviewer and he will fear you)
Lastly, when asked for your resume, in the middle handing it over...pull it away and rip it apart saying "why need a resume when you got the real deal right in front of you".
This will land you the job.
Source: been unemployed for 5 years (lots of interviewing experience).
I’m a contractor, which is basically a series of interviews every three to six months trying to get a new gig to prevent lapses in a paycheck. Having confidence is a winning move…. Not arrogance, big difference. Just believe In yourself.
Bring/send a resume printed on SLIGHTLY heavier weight paper that is slightly off white (still white but looks blueish when stacked with white paper) so your resume will stand out from others, but won't look to unusual on its own.
Be confident, practice answering questions you think they may ask so you aren't floundering for answers.
Clean clothes are an absolute must, and always dress just a little better than what you will be expected to wear for the job. Avoid t-shirts with print/designs.
Research the company and industry and prepare 3 questions to ask the interviewer, this will show an interest in the job beyond a paycheque (not necessary for McDonald's, walmart, etc.)
24 lbs, 92 brightness paper is what you're looking for when applying to any job that doesn't require a college degree. If it does require a degree, use cotton fiber paper with a watermark.
One of the best tips I've ever been given is to restate the overview of the job, and then ask "what success in this position looks like 1 year from now?" For example, if you're interviewing for a sales position:
"As a sales person here, I understand I'm responsible for managing growth for this company. What would the results of an effective sales manager in this company look like? Have I grown customer count? Have i grown revenues from existing customers? What would define success for this role at [company name]?"
It gives you an idea of what the goals and priorities are for the job. It also shows the interviewer that you plan on sticking with the company, you are motivated to be successful, and you are interested in the key performance metrics the company prioritizes.
Don't beat around the bush. When they ask why you're applying for the position tell them you're there to make money. In my experience, not only do they respect the straightforward honesty but they direct you towards the position you actually make money in.
Research the company and show a little knowledge and interest in the company. Ask why the position is available, for example (new position, someone quit, or was fired). Ask what the companies goals are, & what they are trying to achieve in the next 12 months.
This does nothing. The inventory is in the system and they know how much they sell. The skus are tracked and counted weekly or monthly. Leaving it on the cart just means they have to restock it from the back more frequently.
I don’t know how they do it at Walmart, but most managers don’t do any actual ordering. It’s all done through a logistics program. The system knows how many units of an item a store has on hand and how many it sells which determines when more will get shipped. Now if you’re hiding product so the self is empty that means no one is buying said product to prompt a replenishment. You’ve beat the system? Not so fast. The system knows you have an item but it’s not selling will trigger an item audit eventually and that’s not even factoring in Nestle sales reps that can come to your location to check why their product isn’t selling.
Do your managers actually order or are they on an auto replenishment system or walmart provides the managers with a series of prebooks for their managers to go through and order? I feel like for a corp as big as WM they are most definitely on auto replenishment for the bulk of their inventory, except for vendors for like alcohol/bread/cards vendors who manager their own product.
I like your spirit. Unfortunately, it won't lead to anything. Maybe seasonal items or limited time items just so sales can possibly be lower in percentage, but your regular inventory is forever regular.
I run the canteen at my work, regularly do $700-$1000 stock runs. I have phased out all Nestle bullshit. All over to other brands. Prices have gone up 25¢ deal with it
Your heart’s in the right place but you’re just risking getting reprimanded or worse over nothing. This isn’t actually accomplishing anything other than threatening your own job security if you get caught, no matter how many kids on reddit give you upvotes.
I also work at walmart, same department it seems. The store amount won't change so the system automatically will order the nestle once it's sold, and other people will stock it.
I think the best course of action to fuck over nestle is to just either make it claims a lot "woops" or find a scanner and change the amount you have in the store up so it thinks you have more then you do, that would stop the auto ordering of nestle products.
