Walmart? Walmart.

In their defence, if opening time comes, gotta get those carts off the floor!
moistdaddy
I actually enjoyed when people did this at Staples. It gave me something to do rather than organizing binders or contemplating suicide

Bale approved
themuttonisniceandlean
I used to LOVE using the baler! SO much fun. SQUUUIISHHHH! I am easily amused.
ttuper
Hey op, do you work for southern too?

At my store only one department handles the bails.
crann
yeah, we were not allowed near them. There was a cardboard drop off area. We were expected however to flatten the boxes.
chuckster92
"I dont know how to make a bale" bitch come I'll teach ya ( >~<)
ThatComputerDude
Man. I loved making bales. It's real satisfying to hear it drop as it gets lifted out.
ChrisWsrn
It's even better if a wire snaps during the unload WHILE you are doing a safety meeting on baler safety.
OpassumLemonaise
Haveing a bailer is a blessing. We used to have to carry the cardboard out to the dumpster

Bail her? I hardly know her! - Michael scott
KelemvorDoomguide
It is possible the people that did that weren't allowed to use the bailer. You have to be trained and old enough in some areas.
thrain5
I used to call them Wal-morons.
Maxgaap
Somebody once called them Wal-martians, but I like this better
IcantSpellForShit
Just another thing that happens at all walmarts
Mandaernee
True, true. Normally it isn't like this but as of the last 2 weeks our overnights have revolted. I don't care that they all hate me÷
piEquals3equalsC
Is this approved for douchebag customers too?
alwaysintoxicated
I threw a full case of eggs in one once. I was bored. Worth it
alwaysintoxicated
By case i mean 15xdozen cartens

When people do that at my job I start yelling and people get scared.
DameWithAPipBoy
I have so many pictures of this kind of shit on my phone. Aaaah grocery rage...
Snooj
Running the machine looks fun, though. Is it not?
Mandaernee
It isn't as much fun as one would think. I don't mind throwing carboard or making a bale if I'm asked cause they need to get their job done
Mandaernee
But this crap im not ok with
rustedlion
I wanted say "HEY I KNOW THAT PLACE!" then i realized your bailer is much nicer.
stealthjet01
They probably don't even NEED a pipe to jam in the slots so you can get the wire through
ClockworkMinds
I work at a subway in Walmart. They expect us to put their boxes in the baler. All. The. Time.
ImUglyIRL
A subway in a Wal-Mart? Witchcraft!
ClockworkMinds
More like a nightmare
Cisforstupidthatsgoodenoughforme
Way to go CAP2 bitches.
justanothershitusername
Ups employee here. That aint shit. We also keep most boxes to repair others. Everything else is checked for addresses and then recycled.
wimau
When I worked flow at Target, we had one guy who actually liked staying in the back and running the baler. Or some one made him do it, idk.
MaladaptedMedic
We had one outside, so I'd just take a smoke break every time it needed to get done. Bosses liked me because I always volunteered.
FrozenFoodGuy
I would love getting payed to do some mundane task that everyone else hates! Every job i had i was a "runner" and do minor tasks all over.
ImUglyIRL
Sounds like my life right now. Except it all deals within my area where I work and it's all stuff nobody else will do.
brojustshowmeyourdickbro
You mean work at a retail job but not actually deal with or even see the customers? Sign me the fuck up!
37PiecesOfFlair
Right! More time off the floor not having to answer stupid ass questions from stupid ass people and their stupid ass projects. Stupid asses.
Spunkdust
"hey bro wanna go out back and do a bale?" Aww sick bro yeahhhhhh....aw fuck! - you and them, probably.
Cowfister
Oh... Man... I thought you meant like... A joint bro.
Defecakes
I'm confused
eggbrook
Emptying the machine, called a baler, is a horrendous pain in the ass. Lazy shits just let boxes stack up instead of doing their work
Dranton12
Happens at most retail locations. Cause botches be lazy as fuck.
SqueezeTheDay
I think you're supposed to crush the boxes. ...but people dump and run leaving it for someone else to do.
NonexistentGecko
Those mother fuckers!
bigbrothersbinary
Worse than that. You must crush them in the machine and then you need to tie some steel wire around the crushed block and then pull it out.
oooohgawwwwd
Maybe they keep them for people who are moving?
bigbrothersbinary
I don't think so. You wouldn't want to flatten them like that. I always found keeping the original tape on the box made it stronger.
oooohgawwwwd
Makes sense!
Theyjanz
Stores like home depot and Wall Mart use them to crush/compact cardboard to ship off. It's annoying and time consuming to do.
StubbyJohnson
Don't forget grocery stores!
berithwow
you load n press a button, string the band's and done it's not time consuming it's part of their job
ausaur
Yeah which is why he is pissed at them for not doing it
MeatPopsicleMultiPass
For mine, you had to sift wire through as it was pressed. Cardboard always got stuck in wrong places, making it hard to get wire through 1/2
MeatPopsicleMultiPass
To wire a bale, it took about 15 minutes. Do that 4 to 6 times a day. Good thing it is hourly pay.
fuckingtnuc
The problem is, you're usually understaffed and they still expect a stocked and faced department by the time you leave, regardless.
PlatoOrPotato
Same in a grocery store, except half the staff didn't work hard because they were protected by the Union, leaving other to do their work
soMuchHappy
At least they (mostly) flattened the boxes. Bitches used to just toss them boxes in a pile when I was a box bitch
LooseyGooseyBrett
The machine crushes them. You shouldn't have to flatten them
PoppinLochNessHopster
You can flatten the box as you walk from the item's spot back to your float. No fucking reason not to.
MyHeadstoneCrumblesDown
You flatten them out of courtesy and to fit more in the bailer
notthatoneladyyoudontlike
Yeah in my store flattening them before throwing them in is unheard of. I'd want to kick someone's ass for wasting time if I saw that.
notthatoneladyyoudontlike
Guess it depends on store and type of machine
bigbrothersbinary
Where I was, you flattened the boxes so you could fit more in your garbage cart and make fewer trips to the back room with garbage.
notthatoneladyyoudontlike
Where I am, I box down the whole store. Boxes go into boxer, boxer rolls to back room, boxes thrown in baler, bale made about 2x's per day.
cathode
It takes 2-5 minutes for the machine to cycle. You kind of have to flatten everything or else you waste a lot of time.
LooseyGooseyBrett
What ancient machine do you use? It should take about 30 seconds
cathode
I worked at home Depot, I don't think it was ancient, but probably they bought whatever was cheapest.
TripleKitten
Can confirm, was part time there and ours took about 40 seconds
strugglesnuggler
If too much is unflattened the recycling plant won't take them meaning you don't get a rebate due to stupidity/laziness
LooseyGooseyBrett
Not true. You get paid by weight.
strugglesnuggler
The recycling market in most area has standards and reject fucked up bales. They go to the landfill as they're not worth recycling.
LooseyGooseyBrett
When they receive these bails, they just dump they in a big vat. The only standard they have is no car engines. Yes, that's happened.
strugglesnuggler
It's paid by weight, but fucked up bales would be underweight. You'd have to give them a high volume of low quality bales to do it.
Epilepticafro
I understand your pain I've done over done 6 bails in one day because people leave the crusher full.
Andbrie86
I hated morning shift because of this. Always had to do a bale, or two, before I could start unloading my pallets
mindfunkie
i hate this! i dont have that machine so they need to take it down to the compact rm but they leave shit all over in my inventory stockroom
PrfctDrk
I work in a Meat Dept at Safeway, making a bale is somethin I learned in Courtesy. I wait til someone makes a bale instead of leaving cboard
3LGAF
I do not understand laziness.
PubstarHero
I would write people up for not making bails during their shifts.
EdgerAlanJoe
Idk what a bale is but sounds rough. At least they didnt refuse to come back tho
CephalopodLodge4
It isn't, its putting boxes in a machine and pressing a button. The hardest part is the noise.
ILikeToHideInLongCommentChains
That's not the part they're complaining about; it's the removal of said boxes after being crushed, it takes time to tie it off and remove it
IATTM
About 2 times three fidy.
Mandaernee
The last bale made was the one I did at 1230pm the day before! I don't think going 12hrs w/o a new one is gonna ever be ok
TheLordFoxington
As a former Walmart maintenance worker... I feel your pain.
PolarHailStorm
The best one is when they over-fill it and then walk away, so you have to empty it before you compress it. Oh, and it's not full either.
kozguy
But bailing cardboard is one of the best things ever!
notthatoneladyyoudontlike
No. Fuck that shit. I hate making bales
hockeyham
Circa 1990. Worked for a dept. store with a bullseye logo. Went to baling room. 5 other employees ask me if I'm going to "help" them (1/?)
hockeyham
bale because I'm the cart attendant. More a demand than request. I start helping. Turn my back for 5 secs & they scatter like roaches (2/?)
hockeyham
20 mins later I'm still putting cardboard in baler and manager comes back and demands to know why I'm baling someone else's cardboard (3/?)
hockeyham
and not getting carts in lot. I explain what just happened, and told I shouldn't have VOLUNTEERED my services. Get written up because (4/?)
hockeyham
carts weren't available and another cashier had to get carts. I "inconvenienced" customers for "VOLUNTEERING" time to bale cardboard (5/?)
DerpyMcDerper
Shit i did 2 bales today
QUIBICUS
DerpyMcDerper
One plastic one cardboard, lol
CephalopodLodge4
Six whole bales?! Isn't that average?
silverskeeter44
yes for a day but not for 1 person to do them selves every single time. every department uses they bale, all should help change it.
CephalopodLodge4
Oh, where i work only one dept does bales
silverskeeter44
well then no probs I guess
ExtremeAndViolentButtFun
I'm not familiar with this stuff. What makes this difficult/horrible?
Sunseteclipse
its not difficult at all, nor is it a pain. I have no idea why they are whining about it.
Mandaernee
The machine is over full so instead of making a bale they left their cardboard for the carboard fairy to clean up after them.
ExtremeAndViolentButtFun
Yeah, but still, more boxes to smash up. I'd have fun with it. Better than cleaning up roofing material.
ImUglyIRL
They're just talking about how ridiculous people are. All you do is break down the cardboard, throw it in the bailer, and when it gets (1)
ImUglyIRL
Full wrap some wire around it and cart it off to shipping I guess.
ExtremeAndViolentButtFun
Sound like fun actually. I could do that shit all day.
