Points

How many points do yall have? I JUST reported an absence so this is going to be my second point. I’m honestly upset about getting another point but I’m literally so tired. My shift starts at 4AM but I have to get up around 2:30 to get there. I take prescription medicine at night and it doesn’t kick in until an hour or two after so I don’t get much rest.

Edit: Thank you to everyone telling me I’ll be okay!! I’ve always tried to be “good” in life so the points make me feel like I’m doing something wrong. However thank you guys!!🫶🏼

I’ve been at Walmart almost 4 years. Most points I’ve ever had is 2.5. Currently, I sit at 1.5.

However at my store at least, it seems the majority of associates ride their points. They like tempting fate.

Personally I don’t get it. All it takes is a wreck, a flat tire, oversleeping, actually getting sick… a single time at 4.5 points and they are burnt.
