- My yard is infested with all sorts of wildlife ranging from ants, wasps, and birds .
- This is spring time so it is natural to have wildlife scurrying everywhere
- After a year and half my landlord still has not screened in our back porch resulting in wasp, ant, and bird fly by's threatening our good times.
- My land lord is a very busy man with multiple other properties so we are low on his priority list
- Less than a mile down my road there is an intersection that is getting very difficult to navigate. Macclenny is an ever growing city so there are many people here now that causes trying to cross two lanes of traffic with out a light on a single road is getting near impossible.
- Right after the intersection there are people getting off of I-10 so if there was a light the line could back up onto the interstate. It would also cost a lot of money to install a light.
- Right before the stop sign there is a zaxbys which is probably the most popular fast food spot Macclenny has and there is now a huge four story hotel that is being built right behind zaxbys which is going to make so much traffic especially at that crappy stop sign.
- The city is putting a hotel there because Macclenny is growing so fast and our police department has busted every other motel in town for manufacturing and distributing methamphetamine.
- I work at Walmart DC 6099 and the equipment we operate are called Center Riders and they run off of hydrogen. Unfortunately we have to fill our rides up very often so there is always a line at the fill up station.
- Walmart uses hydrogen because it is cheaper than their old system and it is easier to maintain. It takes about five minutes to fill up now but the old system took almost 30 minutes.
- I am an order filler in the Freezer so my job is very simple. I play 3D tetris all day by stacking boxes into neat cubic pallets. The order that we get our boxes in and where each box is in the warehouse is called our profile. As of right now our profile is messed up we are losing workers and it is getting harder to stack certain trips as fast as I would like to.
- The profile could be very easily and quickly changed by our Quality Assurance team but they let the over night haulers determine where new boxes and new slots go.
- Walmart also just changed how we as order fillers wrap our trips. We used take our pallets to the staging area, drop it off, and start another trip while our loaders/ wrappers would wrap each trip and take it to the correct door. Now they have us as order fillers pull a trip, now wait in line to wrap our pallets, fix a problem or help a new wrap his awful pallet, take it to the door, THEN start a new trip. They also have not given us the proper amount of time so if I was running a 130% six months ago that is now a 100% which is stealing money from me.
- So many whys to address here yet it all seriously boils down to money. They displaced 5 loaders/ wrappers so we could wrap our own pallets and they could save money by not paying those wrappers. They have not given us the proper time back because that would mean dishes out so much more money than they want to.
- Recently our perishable sides power went out for thirty minuets so our temperatures started warming up. To combat the warm temperatures they made it colder and have had the fans blowing nonstop so it is so cold right now.
- It makes sense why Walmart is just protecting so much perishable goods it just sucks running so hard in an even colder climate. The ice cream room is usually -30 but it's around -40 still.
- Walmart just recently moved our lockers from perishable side to dry side. We not only have to walk further but I am dressed to run in a freezer so when I start walking around dry side trying to get to my locker I start heating up quick.
- Walmart moved the lockers to add a whole other isle in the dry produce room to fix their profile.
- As an order filler I rely heavily on my equipment to not fail me so I have a good day and it is very rare for nothing to die on me all day. We have old center riders that die all the time, we finally got Bluetooth headsets that can run out of battery sometimes, and our talkman that also runs on a battery.
- Walmart uses all of these because they were the cheapest option they could find. They got the hydrogen center riders knowing they die a lot but it was still cheaper, we got our Bluetooth headsets when amazon upgraded head sets because the ones we bought from them kept dying so much.
- I just attended my girlfriends little sister graduation. She graduated from 3rd grade so they had it in the Glenn Baptist Church. We went to side down in empty seats and the little kid at they end of the row said he needed three extra seats and of course I was sitting in the 3rd seat so we all got up and moved a row back. The entire graduation happened which was an hour and thirty five minutes and that kid saved three seats for no body to show up!!
- He told us he was saving seats for his family and we believed him. I have no idea why the family did not show up but it bugged everyone.
- Just bought a pool table and I like treating it with great respect. I clean it after every use and I re-rack the table so when I come back to play it is already racked and I just have to break. My older brother on the other hand likes to leave in the middle of a game or will finish said game and wont re-rack the table.
- My brother is just being plain lazy and does not want to show my beloved pool table the same amount of respect that I do.
- I bought a cheap bed and bed frame from Walmart because I get a 10% discount and it was a nice bed. After six months the bed decided to start squeaking very loudly at the slightest of movements.
- After six months of sleeping on a cheap Walmart bed frame without greasing up the pressure points I can understand some squeaking. I have since bought a new bed that does not squeak.
- Just bought my girlfriend and I a new set of My Pillows because I was very pleased with my purchases. Unfortunately this time the pillow did not fluff up like it was supposed to.
- I put the dryer on medium heat instead of high heat so the pillows did not fluff up the way they were supposed to. I have put the dryer on high heat and am letting it go for round two.
- Last night we bought some hardees and their sweet tea tasted awful.
- There are a lot of things that could have happened here. It could have been a newbies first week, the manager could have shown this person how to make sweet tea wrong, or this person was a Northerner and just like to make to make proper sweet tea.
- Walmart's employee website Walmart One has now changed to Walmart Wire now and it has not worked properly this entire time.
- It could be really hard to transfer all that data over and make a fully functional website but I feel if Walmart is paying to get this done they would try to get this huge issue fixed so their employees can look at their pay checks or look for new job opportunities.
- Last week at work I went to the break room to take my lunch break and I could not find my food. Someone had moved my food all the way to the back so they could put their ginormous lunch box in front of every body even though on the front of the refrigerator it clearly says no lunch boxes!
- Some one who is already inconsiderate decided to inconvenience my life so their life would be easier.
- My neighbor has an obsession with taking care of his yard. He is literally out there everyday in the spring either weed eating or mowing his lawn for the fifth time this week.
- He either really wants to get away from his wife or he takes a lot of pride in the way his yard looks.
- I'm in charge of the trash at my house and my brother takes care of the lawn. With just four people living here we as humans create so much trash its astounding and makes me think about how many families there are and how much trash there is out in the world.
- Our capitalistic economy runs off of people buying things. When you buy something there is almost always something to throw away.
- The amount plastic that is in my house alone honestly scares me. I'm thinking about starting to recycle and see if I can make money on recycling so much plastic because just a family of four uses and discards so much plastic it is crazy to think about.
- Once again this capitalistic economy runs on people buying things which are usually wrapped in all kinds of plastic. Plastic is inevitable and the only thing we can do is recycle.
This assignment was actually pretty cool. I got to think about what bugged me and why it exists. This will definitely carry on in my life when I get bugged by something I will instantly start asking why?
