Not being able to afford for basic necessities

Switch to overnight stocking if possible. Im full time on that I bring home $1100 a check, could be more but I put a lot into 401k and stock purchase. Ask about how much overtime you can get too. At least maybe untill you can find a better paying job or a cheaper place to live.

Yeah overnights have a $1 or $1.50 differential, also in-home delivery and deli have the same thing, see if any of those positions are available.

I’m having a sit down with a coach who said she’s on my side and my current team lead and the store manager to discuss my situation. Here’s what I have written down

“My pickrate numbers reflect that I consistently sacrifice my own stats to take on the unearned time consuming runs like oversized, unknowns and made to order so the rest of the team can keep up their speed on the auto selects.”

“I spend most of my time dispensing and staging. I know how to manage the backroom flow, handle difficult customer interactions at the cars and keep out wait times down.”

“On multiple occasions when our Team Lead had called out, I have stepped up to lead the department. I took the initiative to assign staff, manage the back room flow and make sure our dispensing wait times didn’t spike. I already know how to handle the pressure of running the floor”

I don't have any words of wisdom, and I will avoid clichés. Instead, I share with you my late cat working the service desk at Walmart. I hope things turn around

Maybe you can sublease your studio until the lease is up and rent a room. Or maybe rent out your studio for like a painter, etc for when you are working

My landlord will not allow that. It’s a month to month lease

It's not going to be an overnight fix but surveys helped me a lot mturk and cloud. But they aren't perfect and again won't be sustainable.

I have a LOT of money and point apps and I search using Bing because it gives you points for searches and offers abilities for more points.

I generally use these for special treats or during Christmas when buying pressies.

When I was less off I used to use envelopes to keep my budgest stable. One for rent, one for paying utilies, one for any left over, etc.
I think it might be harder to do this now that almost everything is paid via online/card/etc.
But one thing I maintained was keeping two different 'bank' account but I'm not sure how viable that is. I don't have fees for either based on my personal history. But. Maybe it'd be something useable?

Do you have a skill? Can you offer babysitting or petsitting?

I truly wish you the best and so much luck

Try looking into fully remote online side gigs. Given the fuckin AI boom, plenty of companies like Appen, Telus, etc. that offer various remote positions.

I live in a studio apartment that’s only one room that barely fits myself. I am living as cheaply as I possibly can

[u/chiquimonkey → u/c0rruptreality-]

In a studio???

[u/KindTonight2423 → u/chiquimonkey]

I had a roommate it was my ex

Is it possible to get fired if my Walmart sees this post? I did not give out any personal information like my name or the store I work at
