overnight stocker from the UK here. love the vid., definitely agree with the mind set. i just go in and get paid to listen to music/podcasts while i do borderline meditative work, clock out and not think about it until i clock in next.
Salute to you! Thank you for the comment! Overnight stocking is definitely a hack for quick easy money if you'r strong in both mind and body but I definitely don't want to do this forever. It's not for everyone, but those who do it can use it as a stepping stone. Keep grinding and getting that money! We will soon be where we want to be, just got to keep working hard, love.
About to work overnight for Walmart. The only part that will be hard would be sleep. I love being particular about things, and I like working with stocking merchandise. Being awake past about 1 or 2 am is going to be the hard part.
Congrats on the new job! And yea honestly from doing overnight stocking for a year now this is my piece of advice: get enough sleep but don’t OVER sleep like don’t sleep the entire day in anticipation for your shift. You’ll feel a lot better and motivated to stay up and get go to work.
Yessirrr I have orientation Monday morning. I don’t have problems working overnight cause I use to work at an overnight job 10-7 a year ago. I hope I can listen to music while working, I make music and I could really use the time listening to my own as cringe as that sounds. Always wanted to try working at Walmart for years. Wish me luck that I catch on and like it 🙏🏽
I’m glad you found this video helpful💎 It means a lot to me. I’m going through it right now too and if I can help somebody navigate this sometimes difficult life and make something as mundane as work feel more easier and bearable then I’m very happy. Everything will figure itself out soon and you will succeed, just got to stay the course💯🔥
I’ve been working for over 4 years in overnight Groceries store. I got hired with the mind of “it just a job for money” and having a lot of trouble during the first month with hard time sleeping and extremely high work charge (cause i work in a big place. Probably as big as a Costco) and yet here I am. 4 years later being promoted to Assistant manager and I like what I’m doing. What you’re saying is true especially for the thought. Other of my guys who work with me that were listening to music the whole shift (10 pm to 6 am) were near the dead stage at the end of the night (don’t know why lol honestly). Anyways great video and advice
Thank you and you’re a great example of how a simple mindset change can change everything, even your position within the company lol, good on ya for climbing up through your hard work for real🔥💯 and yea the job can be tough sometimes but finding mediums and ways to enjoy it and make it as smooth as possible is how you THRIVE. It becomes fun to clock in ‘cause sometimes I go in a talk to friends on discord while working, I listen to my music or a podcast or even stuff I like listening to people talk about like video games or one piece. It’s all about how you make your experience cater to YOU and you can take this job to most other jobs where you alone and can get your work done with no one over your shoulder and pestering you while you work💯 thanks for the insightful comment and keep up the good work🔥
Usually you kind of HAVE to finish the stuff that you are assigned but the way my job is that you usually stay until all the stuff is finished but this varies tbh from if you’re part time or full time, responsibilities change depending on how many days and hours you work especially on part time!
@@beantv6139I just started overnight stocking today and it was a Saturday, most shit that needs to go out is on Saturday I did 20 pallets but trust me it’s not bad you just work and the time flies by and before you know it you’re out of there.
Nice vid. I just started a couple of day ago too. Can i ask you a question ? When they gave you a cart full of box to fill out the shelves . What do you do if you still have some box left on your cart and it nearly the end of your shift ? Are you just take it to the back and left it there ? I'm still new to this ,thanks.😊
Great question! The way it works out at my warehouse is usually the manager (if they are there) is supposed to handle the rest of the things that don’t get done but to be honest you SHOULD be finishing your work if it’s a reasonable amount. Probably ask them how much is expected to be done and if you can’t finish everything one trick is to simply make everything look neat and organized so they don’t have anything to say just in case. I say when you first clock in to get to work immediately whether that is spotting the product in it’s designated sections or if everything is already where it’s supposed to be just get to work right away. This way you can plan how your night is going to go. Each night also depends on how big the truck is each time so that’s something to keep in mind. Always come ON TIME as well because like I just previously stated, you don’t know how big each truck is so you want to maximize how much time you have to work until you clock out! Hope this helps and just comment again if you got anymore questions fam! You got this and again congrats on the new position 💯🔥
@@dracoslayer537 Hi , sorry for the late reply and thanks for your great advice and encouragement 😊, i'm already ask my team leader about it and he advice me just like your , basically i need to time out my work efficiency to balance out the load, but one thing i forgot to ask him though, so can i ask you instead? What if i clocks out late to finish the load. Will i get point for it if i clocks out late ? Thanks .🙂
Aye you’ve been going strong! Salute to you for continuing such a crazy job for that long! That takes skill and some will power indeed. This job gets hard sometimes so shoutout to you🔥💯
*Overnight Gang**, Meijer Grocery. Orientation day 2 tho, I just want to get working already 😂. Been working and cooking for the last 8 years in restaurants. October came around and let me go because it was dead in the winter time, and I hated that shit so this is a nice change that I’m down with broski.
Once you get into it and get a good flow going it’ll be a lot more fun and calmer! Always have a plan as well as bring all your necessities to work and never forget them l, especially headphones if they let you. Thanks for the comment bro! Hope all is well and let’s get this money!💰
@@dracoslayer537 my 3rd night tonight, last night before I clocked out I got locked access to a “zebra” now, it’s a handheld device to let you know where random product is located that you find randomly on shelves while stocking. People steal em for some reason. I feel like I got a lil promotion lol
I wish I had knee pads man and yea like the previous comment said^^ they are definitely a must and will massively improve your ability to reach low shelves etc. A game changer indeed!
How do regular grocery stores work in terms of inventory? For us, we have a Front of House (FOH) and a Back of House (BOH) system. Let's say 24 units come in, and 12 fit in the lane (1 home). We then destock 12 units to a BOH bin, like D.100.RACK10.C01. On the handheld device, we have a replenishment tool that guides us in the store on where to go and restock the items. I assume for you guys, you guys get exactly what they need for the most part, and if any overstock is left, they just put it on pallets and general storage carts. The overstock will get stocked throughout the day. Is that correct?
Yes we usually get pallets every other night with the general items we need to put on shelves then if we have anything that doesn’t go up (overstock) we place them on pallets and boats and the people that come in during the morning work them if need be!

There's more than not getting sleep that's hard. Not being fast enough finishing pallets is hard, and reading time consuming barcodes is hard.

Why was impossible working at Walmart before?
as someone who is going through it in life this video was great

Like the video ! Quick Question What Happens If You Don’t Finnish what your assigned by time you have to clock out?
Usually you kind of HAVE to finish the stuff that you are assigned but the way my job is that you usually stay until all the stuff is finished but this varies tbh from if you’re part time or full time, responsibilities change depending on how many days and hours you work especially on part time!
Okay Sound Good I Was Just Curious, I Put A Application In for part time Hopefully I Can Get In & It Won’t Be As Hard As im thinking lol

are knee pads necessary? im on heavier side
Very recommended, regardless of weight your knees will be bone on floor consistently and it does take its toll, invest in a good pair my advice
I wish I had knee pads man and yea like the previous comment said^^ they are definitely a must and will massively improve your ability to reach low shelves etc. A game changer indeed!
Agreed💯 invest in them so down the line your knees don’t start hurting.
