Pure chaos

Working OGP Walmart is the most unbalanced job you can find at Walmart. Sometimes you start your shift with a positive atmosphere in the store where almost everyone is energic and in a good mood because they have nothing to stress about. No crazy number of orders in the first hour, everyone is working carefully and helping each other perfectly. Ideal OGP Walmart world where everyone lives happily and easily. There is unfortunately a flip side to that coin. And I lived through the chaos of OGP Walmart once again and I realized that no matter how much I work for this place in this department, I never get used to it. It's a low budget, high affect horror film in 4k. You start your shift with 30 orders in the first hour and you already know it's a sh^t show. Associates fighting and yelling over some bullsh^t, Team Lead demanding more and more, and in the middle of all of this, imagine the poor you just got your first order and trying to find the specific brand of yogurt that no one in the store knows where it is while trying to escape absurd questions from both the customers and fellow associates. That was me yesterday. I was the 'poor you' in this story. I don't know if you know this but there is an unwritten rule at OGP Walmart that I bet almost every associate knows: once you get an order on your device, the time clock starts ticking faster and faster for no fu^^ing reason and yesterday was no different for me. While I was on the search for the stupid yogurt that was ordered by a stupid customer, I was racing against the time, and as you can imagine I was in an extreme hurry. I didn't know what I was seeing, doing, saying, or anything, I was just looking for that damn yogurt and when you are focused on this one thing when you are in a panic mode, you know nothing good will come out. So nothing good came out. I hit the damn stocker who was moving a pallet of milk and I literally thought I broke my fu^^ing knee. As if that wasn't enough, the pr^^k that I hit was screaming on top of me while I was in pain saying that I almost knocked down the entire pallet of milk, I almost got him in trouble, I almost did this did that bla bla. First off, I don't know why the fu^k would someone get mad over something that would have been happened. It didn't happen you fu^^ing id^^t, move on with your life. Isn't it a good thing for you that I actually didn't get you in trouble by knocking down a pallet of milk? Instead, I almost broke my knee. So why are you screaming like a baby? Anyway. This happened yesterday and I can tell you my knee still hurts from that and I carried on like a fu^^ing gladiator like anyone would give me a medal or something. This morning, it was another chaotic time and nature was not on my side either. I was loading up an order to a customer's car and a type of rain that I have never ever and I mean EVER seen in my life started to fall down from the sky all of a sudden. Do you know what the customer did? She just got into her car and left me with all of her groceries. While I was loading sh^t tons of items into her trunk and also trying not to get wet in the rain that was abnormal, she was telling me what item I should be putting, like in what order. I finished loading the items of her majesty and she left. I ran back to the warehouse but it was too fu^^ing late. I was like I went into a pool with my clothes on. I just hope I don't get sick because of this bi^^h. I mean, when I think about it again as I write this post, it was insane. I came across a lot of bi^^hy customers but this one was another level. This was topnotch. This was the Michael Jordan of Karens. I guess it's better to call her the Michelle Jordan of Karens. Anyways folks. As you can see it's NOT easy to be an OGP Walmart associate. May God help all of the Walmart associates but I just hope that he helps the ones who are working at OGP Walmart a little more.

How rude can you be to leave someone in that situation and tell them what to do from your car? People are insane. I'm old school man. This version of the world scares the he^l out of me. Take me back to the times when kindness mattered.

Stop acting like you're a slave. You do what you are supposed to do and you get paid accordingly.

Is your associate always like this? What kind of person would get mad over something that would happen if things went wrong?

With all due respect, I don't care about no rush hour. An associate caused an accident and they got hurt. You don't know what happened to them and the first thing you choose to do is yell at them for something that didn't happen? You need help.

I agree like that's the whole point. When the person that carrying the pallet calmed down, I think they thought like damn that was stupid

I mean if he continue with his job after hitting the pallet that means it wasn't that serious. Why do y'all act like he got hit by a truck or something?

That's a fair point but still, something serious could have happened, and that behavior shouldn't be the first thing that someone does when they get into an accident.

The way I can relate to this chaos is the exact reason that I changed departments. Working OGP walmart is not a good idea for anyone who wants to protect their mental fu^^ing health.

I laugh my a^s off when front end associates complain about the ignorance or stupidity of their customers. I wish those people worked one, just one day at OGP Walmart.

Congrats on leaving hellfire for a sh^t ho^e. I never understand why people change departments at Walmart. Like bro, if you're not satisfied with your current job at your current department, what makes you think that you will be satisfied in a different department AT THE SAME COMPANY?

Working with and for new people, at a new department, with different duties, on a different job description, with different working hours, yeah that sounds the same as my previous department smart a^s.

Also, do you work for Walmart? If you're not, what the he^l are you doing on a platform that talks about Walmart? If you are, why are you acting like your situation is much different than mine?

I will never understand why I have to sacrifice for some id^^t to feel special while all I'm getting in return is an ungrateful attitude.

And I, on the other hand, will never understand why you people cry about situations that happen 1 time out of 100. If people were rude and ungrateful like you people are claiming, there would be a civil war in this country. People show you gratitude by shopping in a store that pays your salary. Stop waiting for words of affirmation. This is not a barbie world. You guys are so weak and it makes your life (and everyone else's life who is around you) a lot more harder than you can imagine.

I have every right to complain if I'm treated like a slave no matter how many times a week a month or a year. I don't want to be treated this way EVER. Nothing more nothing less.

And I'm saying that you can't control how other people treat you. If you have an unrealistic expectation like this, you will change a lot more jobs than you can imagine.
