For the things that never make any sense! XD

Walmart does not have a good reputation for treating anyone well, including their employees, so of course they wouldn't care about animals. It's all about the money.

What's sad is that as shitty as they are I'm still jealous of my friends who work there because they get a thirty minute lunchbreak AND a 15 minute break if their shift is at least 6 or 7 hours (more and longer breaks for longer shifts). Us Kroger slaves get one 15 minute break unless we work 7 or more hours, then we get one 30 minute break. Of course whoever does scheduling LOVES to give out 6 1/2 hour shifts, which is some annoying bullshit since I'm usually starving by breaktime and 15 minutes is not enough to run and get food and eat it (I pretty much have to inhale it).

Baggers get nothing in the way of benefits either. No health care, no holiday pay (I worked Thanksgiving and the only reason I didn't have a nasty meltdown from all the noise and crowds was because I went and did some things to my arm I'm not exactly proud of and just got my usual minimum wage for it), nothing. The excuse for the reason we get no health care is because "we can take tips". WHAT TIPS, BITCH? Who the fuck tips baggers? I'm lucky if i get a buck 50 every three months from someone whom I love forever at the moment. Lemme tell ya that TOTALLY is enough to pay for health care and shit.

kfdnbgiogchj I need a new job ;A;

Wait, I'm sorry, but I never knew you tipped baggers. That is like right there with tipping the guy who pumps my gas... Not something I realized I was supposed to do :/ I never have cash on me anymore, so how am I supposed to tip? I mean, I tip the obvious... uh...

Yeh I hate retail jobs. I refuse to work another again. They treat their employees like numbered robots and not people. Like, if someone told me had had to work in retail again I would shot them and hide the body.

Oh, I was the same way until I started working this job. I'd never heard anything about tipping baggers, and most people this day and age are in the same boat. The main people I get tips from are older people. I don't blame people for not knowing you're "supposed" to tip baggers, I blame Kroger for being stupid and not realizing this and thinking it means they don't have to cough up benefits for us.

Seriously this job. Shit's much harder than it looks, especially when your brain doesn't take too kindly to being in a noisy, crowded place with florescent lights for very long. And when you work for people who, for the most part, don't understand this and think because it doesn't give them problems it shouldn't give anyone else problems as well :/

My local Walmart actually took out the fish section about a year ago. Geeze - remember when they used to sell rodents too?

The rodents were the mice and rats that they found crawling around in their back room.

I used to work there. Seriously, lots of little squeek squeeks running around.

I didn't know you were suppose to tip baggers either. But we always went to Shoppers where customers bagged their own groceries. And we brought our own bags long before reusable bags became popular.

I think y'all can blame Publix (in the south at least) for the idea that baggers don't get tipped when they take your groceries to your car. Not tipping the baggers is part of their promotion. They pay their baggers a little more and offer benefits, but will actually fire someone for accepting a tip. I haven't worked at Publix since high school so I don't know what it's like working there anymore, but I enjoy shopping there.
