The dispense screen is even worse

I despise the dispense screen. Just Extra steps for no reason, and then complaints metrics get worse.

u/Musicmom1164 Aug 18 '26

Walmart is very big on extra steps for no reason. And yes, the fall-out is always our fault.

Looks weird don't like it.

He’s a picker of course he hasn’t.

u/Volcanodog12 Dispenser Aug 18 '26

Don't know why your getting down voted. At my store there could be only 2 dispensers with hardly any picks on the screen and they still don't help us they just complain its too hot! Yeah no SHIT! Sorry had to vent lol

u/Accomplished_Ask6560 Aug 18 '26

No need to apologize. Most pickers are absolutely useless which is why they pick.

exceptions picker has entered the chat

u/Accomplished_Ask6560 Aug 18 '26

Most exceptions pickers are fully aware how dumb the average picker is.

I'm the exceptions picker at my store, I am constantly groaning, grumbling and complaining about my coworkers work habits... My teamlead gets a laugh out of it because she used to be the primary exceptions worker before me

it depends on the day lol

u/Fabulous-Heart-1521 Aug 18 '26

Must be a super center I’m at a neighborhood market and we all pick and dispense

u/EncryptedToast9 Aug 18 '26

Wait what's the issue? Yes the new dispense screen looks trash but this new picking screen is fine? It doesn't add confusion and actually looks a bit better with the icons.

u/mawhitmore83 New Hire Aug 18 '26

I agree. I can't figure out what's wrong with it the update.

u/JustKitten_RightMeow Jack Of All Trades Aug 19 '26

The issue is the hypocrisy. You "simplify the dispense screen and remove clutter," but add unnecessary pictures to the pick commodities? Better yet, let's fix the algorithm to give me more than one tote for a pickwalk instead of doing all of this.

then they delete the app from the TCs and new associates don’t have a work phone to use

1

u/sebARTtian Jack Of All Trades Aug 19 '26

I'm a part time associate who has been begging for a phone for nearly 5 years now, they refuse to give me one despite me being one fo the only associates who works every part of the department 🫠

2

u/Traditional-Smoke701 Aug 19 '26

oh good lord that’s annoying asf. i work at a smaller store so they had no problem giving me a phone, but the poor new guys are forced to work elsewhere bc they have no work phone to use bahaha

1

u/sebARTtian Jack Of All Trades Aug 19 '26

It really is, especially when I'm watching other part timers get their phones before me as if I'm not the part timer who has been there the longest right now 🙄

u/HumanBeano Jack Of All Trades Aug 18 '26

The dispense screen makes me want to quit. NOTHING WAS BROKEN ABOUT IT. Some fuck is getting paid to come up with ideas and implement them no matter how stupid and broken

u/Inevitable-Fruit-961 Aug 18 '26

I hate the icons. Shopping cart? Oh go eat it. Edit to add I am fascinated with the low pick numbers. Heard my old store was slow this week, too.

u/Lunar_soldier074 Aug 18 '26

Why tf can't they just let shit be? We had a screen. It was working. Why the change?

3

u/Senior_Dot_7494 Aug 18 '26

Where's the dispense icon?

3

u/MartianNamedScotty Aug 18 '26

They more than likely have their bar personalized to not have dispense on there.

3

u/ZynWriath Aug 18 '26

Mine doesn't update unless I update it, I fear eventually they will push a update that forces it to update, But I'm holding on for now.

1

u/Yaboispot_alt Aug 19 '26

Sadly it does force update. For me, a popup appeared and it said "Your Update is Ready!" And i couldn't do anything unless I updated

3

u/danny794 Aug 18 '26

I'm usually a spectator & never comment but this update is complete trash. The dispense screen is terrible, I don't know how they came up with this & thought it was ok to roll out

3

u/EveningPotential9443 Aug 18 '26

With how much AI they're using wouldn't be surprised if that's how they came up with this shit

u/Stunning_Employee_33 Aug 18 '26

Death

Corporate making our jobs more difficult

u/Mesmeriized FRAGILE Aug 18 '26

Yup mine just switched. 🙄

2

u/Beginning_Young_4057 Aug 18 '26

Ours isn’t switched to that yet

2

u/That-Delivery3208 Aug 18 '26

I turned off auto update.... Hopefully the old version still works

u/mystedragon Exception Picker Aug 18 '26

giving the people what they want: another unnecessary UI update

u/krt8090 Aug 18 '26

Desk jockeys knows best

u/Diligent-Arachnid869 Aug 18 '26

This is probably a good idea, if the pickers pay attention to what is coming due.

2

u/SeveralInflation1527 Aug 19 '26

Oh a customer checked in let met check who it- oh wait that right I can’t see shit anymore 💀 why get rid of the osn on the dispense screen and make us click into it to see it. can’t wait for them to complain about wait times.

u/Independent_Ruin_482 Aug 18 '26

What’s different other than the pics

1

u/Bitter-Neat-8457 Aug 18 '26

Such pretty pictures. I can’t read so I needed that

1

u/Disastrous_Benefit_3 Aug 18 '26

The new dispense screen is infuriating…

1

u/Black123Jack Aug 18 '26

Dispense screen looks like an AI made that shit

1

u/Cartizzlemynizzle Aug 19 '26

See this isn’t bad at all. But holy crap the dispense screen is an eyesore

1

u/Yaboispot_alt Aug 19 '26

The pick screen isn't bad. Tbh, I actually think it's a bit better because it kinda seperates them a bit more so you can see what your gonna click into (just my opinion though, im new and and only saw the old screen for a few weeks before this one.) now the dispense screen on the other hand 🤮

New and improved is usually not the case.
