There is no more Gatorade in the warehouse, so I never have to handle it again. And since the 28 ounce bottle is now $1.72 compared to the $1.16 for the 32 ounce bottle three years ago, I may never touch another bottle of Gatorade again.

Daylight Savings Crime
After 23 years if not having to deal with daylight savings time, I have dealt with it for the past 16 years. This does not mean I have gotten used to it. It is bad enough having to remember to reset alarm clocks when you go to bed the night before. Not only am IContinue reading “Daylight Savings Crime”
Can’t even give the stuff away.
The space heater I bought last week at 30 dollars is now on sale at 15 dollars https://footyfried.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/20230305_065555.jpg
No more Gatorade
Wally World will still have Gatorade, but I won’t be stocking it much longer. Pepsi, which owns Gatorade, will stock Gatorade the same way they handle Pepsi. I just wonder what Walmart will add to my duties. Anything else would be lighter than cases of Gatorade.
Got the raise
The well publicized raise showed up in my bank account today. Maybe I can get by for another year. Or maybe I can get one of the jobs at the soybean plant due to open next year.. County leaders are having closed door meeting concerning another industrial facility moving to the area. It is niceContinue reading “Got the raise”
Uniform Blues, Part Two
Managed to get my Wally World vest stained in two shifts. Since this is my weekend, I get to see if I can get it clean or if I go back to the old vests.
Uniform Blues
We got new vests at Wally World last year. Most of us held onto the old dark blue vests as long as we could. This week I found out why. My old vests had holes in the pockets for several months. The holes grew to the point my boxcutter fell out of the vest, soContinue reading “Uniform Blues”
Weeding out the help
For most employers trying to hire people it’s warm bodies wanted, cold ones considered. You don’t have to work hard to keep your job. You have to work harder to get fired than you doing your job. At Wally World, one of the stockers got fired for being too slow. It was bad enough sheContinue reading “Weeding out the help”
Hard times are coming
We hear about layoffs at tech companies and large banks but it doesn’t matter much around here because tech companies never had known presence here and Bank of America left almost a decade ago. When Walmart announces sales are expected to fall, people around here start paying attention. Consumers are tapped out and are strugglingContinue reading “Hard times are coming”
She chose flowers
I went to work last night and found this at the front of the store. Guys, there is still some time left in case you forgot what day it is.
