Ya in the orientation they had like a store meeting and they are getting bonuses for quarterly stats and is based on supposedly just pretty much doing what they do (and have only not got a bonus once).

Compared to my last job where we never got bonuses and the company thought of us as shit it is quite the difference, but we will see.

Apparently Wal-Mart must be selling canned foods and bottled water like hot cake to the people waiting for a Zombie Invasion, in order to still be hiring and giving bonuses.

COngrats! And yes, boxcutters can be dangerous - but if used properly can be a powerful negotiation tool

Just ask Noah Bennett and Sylar!

Anyway - Walmart... decent place to work except you'll learn everyone is an asshole there soon enough. Unlike you, MOST of the incumbents will be bitter tools not realizing the fact that they have a job should thrill them to no end.

At my last job talking to people on the phone and bitching at me will think twice now. BTW, it has a holster and retractable blade that comes out when you squeeze it, try me now old ladies complaining about shitty cell phone service.

One request: please smile.

My local Wal-mart is a downer, not one smile from any employees last couple times I went. Your job might suck, but you are working customer service, so if I can fake a smile at the 100th person asking me a retarded question at work, you can do.

Eh, most of them are just weirdos that I have seen so far, doesn't seem like there are that many elitists.

Also, the good thing about the job is that it is part time, my first job was full time and REALLY made me not want a job. Not to mention it was always 3PM-12AM so I pretty much had NO life/time. Part time and it is either 10AM-7PM or eh, I forgot the other one, BUT, I get three days off.

Other job was based pretty much solely on personal stats which wasn't a problem for me, but was never 100%, how are you going to make every single person happy when they call you just to bitch and are just doo doo head dummies..
