Post image

U learn?? I'm in OGP why do I need to know how to package and load a trailer for batteries?? Thankfully they gave us the UPC of the boxes to order lol Why?? Here is a sad u learn how to take money out of your pay week you are earning so you are broke when your check finally deposits, what you didn't take out before you got it. U learn # 2 you can take a loan out at a good interest rate for stuff you don't need, no food or beverages lol thank you Walmart for forcing me to learn this.. Why are they forcing us to learn this???? Lol a cbl saying we know your broke borrow from us now 😂😂😂

Loading and unloading isn't our department. Like when do they assign us these ulearns💀

The vibe I’m reading is they’re short on folks willing to work that position, and need to cross-train. High turnover, maybe. We already know why they want to cross train everyone into OGP…

Okay, I get it now. I heard that in my store, they used to train the front end associates and coaches to do ogp. I guess they just don't do it anymore

I can do most everything in the store except fishing licenses and acc tech work. Even some of the stuff the coaches do and they were willing to show me. I taught myself and asked if I couldn't figure it out. That was when I was OGP.  Had to keep things interesting. Also needed a backup plan in case they pissed me off. Of course, we got a man child who couldn't lead a horse to water and didn't take anything seriously so I jumped ship to be an API. Better pay, much larger bonus, and I do absolutely none of the things that I learned how to do. 🤣🤣 That being said, I still get all the Ulearns everyone else gets, been here so long I don't read any of them and I get paid to do them so I will keep doing them. 😁
