OMG! What Have I Gotten Myself into at Walmart?!

Well, people, I don’t know if I am going to survive in this job at Walmart.  The training was going well, but then they threw us out onto the floor with snaking lines of people.  Our trainer had told all of us last week that we ARE NOT ready to be on the floor alone.  She told us this on Thursday, and I was out put out on the floor on Saturday!  OMG!  I immediately went into "survival mode" on my register! However, this is nothing compared to what happened Sunday….I was in the "Women’s" bathroom and a male walked out of the "handicapped stall"!  Definitely a Kodak moment.  Today is my much needed day off.  I think I might lose my mind!!  At least I KNOW the difference between the bathrooms.  He should have noticed there were NO urinals in the "Women’s" bathroom. Duh!  At least I will have something interesting to write about on OD!

Hang in there. Surely it will get better with time as you gain more experience? That said, I don’t think I could do it!

That sounds like a tough job, but then so does substitute teaching! I think you can handle just about anything. Good luck to you and yes, please share your interesting experiences with us! LOL!

One of the appellate courts said that if a male feels like a female he can use the women’s bathrooms. Doesn’t matter if the women do not feel like he is a female.
