I worked nights for a while at a local Walmart, and it was horrendous. Day crew would dick around, and do jack shit, then managers would yell at us all night long, 'cause we didn't have enough time to do our stocking, and day crews work. Is this common at all Walmarts?

Can confirm. Worked at a Subway in a Walmart. During the day there were always tons of employees in our lobby. They'd come in for "lunch" and sit for two hours, then take five or so fifteen minute breaks throughout the day.

Billy is 52 and has been at Wal-Mart for over ten years now. He makes just over $9 an hour, but it's not enough, since his wife was hurt at her temp job last year and the medical debt is piling up. In just over 6 years, Billy will have paid off his trailer home, just in time to buy a new one because it's falling apart. He's also making payments on a credit card bill that totals almost ten thousand dollars. When his mother died, she left him a minivan, the family's only vehicle. This picture was taken on a Tuesday so he's looking forward to his Wednesday day off. He's picking up a bottle of Burnett's before he leaves and doesn't tell his wife. After she goes to bed, he'll have a drink but then end up finishing the bottle and halfheartedly watch a bad movie on the TV.

What's worse is the niggers I work with have little sense of consequence of not getting the work done.

Exactly. Look up the Jared Taylor lunch room test.

I have bills to pay and I'm not as fast as these kids are as I'm pushing 40.

1. Billy isn't married
2. Billy makes $14/hr
3. He doesn't live in a trailer

I wish I lived in a trailer. Better than a 2 bedroom apartment in a complex.

How is everyone working there so content with lacking any sense of uniqueness or living lives so mediocre even by small town standards?
I worked at one for like 4 months and Jesus fuck just being part of that group of losers as a short term necessity was so utterly depressing

If it's all they have and aspire to nothing else I'm surprised they haven't offed themselves.
How can they be content with Wal-Mart being all they have?
How can any of them not have any hopes or dreams??? I never understood how one could be so mildly unaffected by their lack of hope or will for something better than Wal-Mart and just be content being the lowest common denominator of a person

I don't know about everyone else, but I'll speak for myself in saying demoralization gets in the way. I also have no accolades or a GED, so i have no where else to go and don't feel like working fast food again as I worked at a burger king for six years prior.

>>768203698
Leave your shitty hometown for God sakes anon. Boo hoo no ged. I know plenty of people without diploma or ged's with decent lives. My advice leave to a city that revolves around service industry or has a lot of bars/nightlife . Jobs fucking everywhere and bam your quality of life just went up. Might even have friends or touch women who've not lived 30 years within a 15 mile radius/ cultural dead zone.
>>
how easy is it to shoplift?

>>768204146
Can't leave. Gf's elderly parents aren't dead yet. Not ready to work in bars and I doubt i'd make any friends given my age. At least my day wouldn't be ending at 2pm on a daily basis.

>>768204296
It's easy enough. Just look out for AP or other managers in the area.

I mean a lot of bartenders work 3 days a week and obliterate what you make.
I digress, don't pity your self don't let yourself be mired by mediocrity and the low stakes garbage you've fooled yourself into thinking is important or meaningful. Leave or stay. Clearly staying has little going for it but the ease of familiarity.

As a non-american I started to wonder which jobs would be considered even stittier in your country. Does OP feel like Wal-Mart is very close to rock bottom, if you get stuck with it for so many years?
>>
>>768205101
Time will do that on its own, but it's not like I'm getting any younger here.

>>768205118
I doubt any place out there will be able to match my $14 an hour wait I currently make to start. If I wanted to make $11 an hour and work days, I would just work days at Walmart. At least my vacation time would be intact.

>>768205190
It has a lot of flaws to say the very least. It's too much the grape about and there's not much I can do about it on an individual basis such as my own, so I guess I'll just have to live with what I've been dealt with.

>>768205264
I would actually like to be paid all my working hours and not have to work for free just to keep my job because the lazy niggars I am assigned with can't work fast. I probably have volunteered thousands of hours of my time so I can remain in the good graces of my bosses and not firing me for any particular reason. More the last time I went to Home Depot I needed a piece of a board cut and the aspie had no clue when I said 5/8".
>>
>>768205573
Nigga wtf you do with that vacation time really?? Stay in a damn trailer ? Sometimes an immediate sacrifice necessitates greater change over time my dude. Clearly you hit the peak of where you're at and it's clearly pretty piss poor.
>>
>>768199088
How the fuck haven't you killed yourself already?
>>
>>768205884
I don't live in a trailer unfortunately. Would be nice to have some semblance of homeownership in my life, but that's probably never going to happen. No, I can say that I get a good night's rest throughout the week which is hard to come by with the paranoia of being fired from my job for any reason, or if I slept in and was late for work.

>>768205895

Quality of life is probably higher than unnamed town with zero culture or prospects working at a Wal-Mart
>>
>>768199088

What has been the strangest experience you've had?
>>
>>768206178
So the best you hope for is a good night's sleep and to not get fired from your dead end job with no prospects or hopes of even renting your own trailer? Good God I pity you. Grow some God damn balls and attempt to have a life above American bottom feeder status.

Any vacation plans for the future?

>>768206458
Blocking out all the anti-union propaganda. Nothing too freaky happens on a night by Night basis.

>>768206502
Too many opportunity costs. Kind of hard to do when you live virtually paycheck-to-paycheck and have zero savings.

>>768206713
I just came off from vacation for few weeks ago. Didn't do much except try to heal my wrist up a little bit, play League of Legends, and be able to sleep 10 hours that didn't take place during the day thankfully. I don't know what else I can do during my vacation except probably just smoke and drink and figure out where my life went wrong

>>768199088

Which kind of other job would be available for you? What could go wrong if you really tried to get away from this shit? At least it would be a change in your life if you find any other work.
>>
>>768208098
>Which kind of other job would be available for you?
Fast food at best. Day labor via labor/people ready at worst.

>What could go wrong if you really tried to get away from this shit?
My monthly pay being reduced by a quarter at least.

>At least it would be a change in your life if you find any other work.
The only thing that would be a change of pace would not working 10pm to 7am
>>
When's the last time you took a risk that wasn't a different street to work? For real you can rationalize being the human equivalent to a back yard pool grown tilapia fish feeding off the shit of your peers at the bottom but that doesn't make it less true. Stop wasting your life in the shadows of your own doubts.
>>
>>768209204
I can't afford to take risks because I have nothing to fall back on. That's why I don't gamble. I'm not suited for the "double or nothing" lifestyle. That's shit my parents did and caused the downfall of our family to homelessness for the majority of my "best years".

Is there any chance for you to climb up the ranks in the Wal-Mart system from the position that you are in?

>>768210074
not unless I want to take a $3 paycut by going on days in hopes of sempai in management noticing me. No one gets promoted on nights.

>>768210077
smoke and drink to get to sleep. It's whats needed when you're perpetually in fear about unemployment.

I've seen 50 yo's attemtp to get an associates by taking 1 class a semester.
Excuses, excuses.
Want to save money? Stop buying smokes (I'm assuming it's weed) or alcohol. Invest in yourself, attempt bar tending school maybe. Enough of this fagorty I'm getting depressed seeing your threads so often.

Seeing the corporate higher-ups deny this woman I work with who has one leg a mart kart.

>>768210893
I don't have a grand to spend each semester per class. I'm not in California and haven't been in a classroom since before the year 2000, so I'll be in remedial classes for an eternity.
>Enough of this fagorty I'm getting depressed seeing your threads so often.
turn that depression into something else as you seem to be doing a lot better than your humble correspondent.
