I hated working at my location, small city, stereotypical small city crap. I disliked my toxic coworkers so much...majority of them don't deserve to have that job of getting paid $18.50 per hour. But I deserved it because I put in the work and a lot of people don't deserve this job because they move slow and take time. I put in so much value that others just barely worked at all. I came back from the military to work at the same location again and I worked for a week or 2 and had to quit the toxic crap. I hope they burn in "H e 🏒🏒"!!!. Because I am back at being homeless again!.
I can’t be the only one that honestly just loves stocking bruh I’ve worked for Winco & Walmart both I just put my headphones in & zone out before you know it those 8hrs go by FAST 😂
Personally, I just pull the pallet to the middle of the aisle and walk back and forth. The time spent walking back, i'm breaking down the cardboard and putting it on the cart. I like to keep my aisle clean as possible with minimum obstacles on the floor. There isn't really a wrong method, unless of course the person is failing to reach time limits constantly. So whatever works best for each person seems good enough. Your advice about the work environment and communicating and helping others is spot on. I finish early quite often and get sent to another aisle to help someone else and I have no issue with it. My coworkers usually apologize for me being sent to them but I see no issue with it. I'm paid by the hour, not the aisle. I do what is asked of me, don't complain, and leave. I've had no negative feedback or coaching. Plus, if I do have a day where i'm a little behind, the people being sent to me are going to be less resentful and actually want to help me finish and lessen my burden because I do it just as often for them. While we do a lot of working alone, there is still a lot of team effort involved, so it's best to communicate, be helpful, respectful, and reliable. While it may seem like nothing, staying those extra 9 minutes to help a coworker bin overstock so he or she can leave on time doesn't go unnoticed. We have great team leads where I work which I understand can make or break someone's experience at Walmart. The only people that really get fired is either due to points from days missed or because they are negative minded and can't work well with others, and if you're like that, they are going to make your job as miserable as possible until you're terminated or quit. So it's basically keep a positive outlook and do what is asked, or you're not going to be employed there very long. The longer you work there, the more often you're rewarded with easier tasks like top steal which can eat up an hour of your time before the shift ends.
I remember I used to work at Walmart overnight and I would workout after clocking out and sleep all afternoon, now I'm going to work at HEB overnight, but your totally right on everything you said bro ✌🏽
I liked it but hated it, the reason why is because most people that worked overnight are slow and mainly females. So me and a few others have to do all the hard labor work. I hated it because of a small city, stereotypical small city is real but that includes even big cities but mainly small cities. Cause trouble, hatred, jealousy, etc. over something that is not much of a huge issue about. I'm sire you can agree on that as a Overnight Stocker, we are supposed to move and get things done fast. So I move fast and these idiot coworkers believing and b*tching about me that I think that I am better than them. Pets and chemicals but mainly pets is the toughest one where I am at. They tried to get rid of me last year and acted as if I was a horrible worker when the reality is my coach and other's relied on me and a few people to get things done and the others are just lazy useless pathetic brats that don't deserve to have a job. I was homeless before and doing my best to survive when I was living the hotel. I eventually had to quit and became homeless and went to the military but got out a few months because I didn't like the military branch and came back at the same Wal-Mart and I only worked for a week or 2 and quit, because of some of these stupid coworkers and new coworkers tried to gain up on me by getting rid of me, I had to leave the toxic crap. And back to being homeless again. I hate it so much, I deserve that $18.50 per hour pay and alot of people don't. I just did my job and stayed out of trouble, didn't bother anyone.
@@garouuchiha4041 u let those people get to u bro and made u lose ur job. If u ina situation where ur homeless u should know to just let people say what they want cause ur job is not a want but a need. U should’ve been working and saving money fam but instead u were working and worried about other peoples opinions. Who cares about what someone has to say u knew ur situation bro. I hope everything goes well and u find another job. Put money to the side every paycheck if u know how it feels to be homeless u should be saving Ass much money as u can. Hope life gets better but it never will if u care about other peoples opinion about u
I'm about to start doing this, but I'm concerned because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hashimoto's, both physically painful diseases. I probably won't be doing this long. I just need a job on my resume and the funds to relocate, lol. Awesome video, the best one I've seen so far, thanks for sharing!!
Ya I work in chemicals alone and usually have 6-8 pallets and I work alone downstacking is a waste of time because it took me about 2 hours to down stack now I just take the pallet in the aisle so by the first break I already finished 3 pallets
Ayoo i feel so sad😭 but thanks for the tips/advices! I made a schedule for my interview in Walmart and they didn’t call me and They didn't even leave me an email to see if I would like to schedule it again😢 idk why i want to work there so badly idk like i want it to be my first job🫤
Call them. If they don't answer, keep trying. If that doesn't work, go to Wal-Mart directly and ask for the manager and tell them you want to be hired. If the manager is not there, ask when they will be there and then show up for when they are available. I called a few times and I was able to get hired. You can too 🙂👍 . if the Wal-Mart you apply to doesn't have any hiring openings, then ask another Wal-Mart building. One Wal-Mart might not be hiring, but another building might be. Good luck, you got this 🙂👍.
I look at how absolutely slow the stockers at walmart are! You can tell they get paid hourly!! If it takes them 1 minute to stock a box or 30 minutes they still get paid the same.
I always put the product on the left of the section the products go on. It's not in the way and saves me a lot of time pushing boxes out of the way. The only thing I don't like is day shift people throwing overstock on the shelves anywhere they can find room. It makes my job much harder sorting everything on the shelves. Easy job though. 👍
I had old herniated discs from my younger days in construction. , i tried this job hoping it would be ok but i aggravated them again. I had to stop in the middle of my work and tell the boss i have to quit. Physically impossible to do when the discs push on the nerve, there's no way to hide it. I cried a little when walking to my car. I love physically work like this but my back won't let me do it anymore.
@@manuelaguayo3853 it was an okay experience working there, fast paced, a lot to learn but if its your first day don't stress yourself out, you'll eventually get most of it by the end of your first month
Do you still work there? I’m going to start before the next school semester and I’m wondering what the average amount of hours starting/ending times and how many days you work.
I work for Safeway as a Master of None (Jackass of All Trades) and I've done Night Crew for my store. Our manager has us face the aisles before we stock it. It's dumb and only store Safeway and Albertsons our area that does it that way. But it's 1-2 people that break down the load and 1-2 that face the grocery aisles. Then we will spot the load and then throw. I'm just trying to turn off that perfection when throwing and wanting to tear into it that I've done off and on.
I worked overnight for a bit and it’s a chill, but I worked for Kroger and we only had two people to break down the load and spot it . We then had to face it when stocked. The pay was ok nothing crazy just not worth it. Not a bad job but rather do school lol
I have berly a mouth with HEB dam work week was ruff i still need to be faster i have a stock control who is constantly tell me to hurry up which is kind of annoying but I get where they're coming from but seriously he's not really a good teacher all he does is yell and when he does teach me something he barely explains it well I have another stock controller who's better and has more patience with me and I appreciate that but if you have somebody who is constantly on your back it's going to make your job a hell and I've realized that I work slower with the other guy than I do with the guy who's more relaxed
Lol maybe one day i will be on that level for know Iam still learning but so far by the looks of it my stock controller says I'm getting faster but in the other hand the other stuck controller the ones who wants me to do s*** fast this constantly telling me to hurry up but somehow I feel I work slower with him when the other person
I just literally tell the manager to chill out and that I will get faster as I go. It’s worked for me for 30 years. You are already smarter than them because you have common sense that harassing someone while they are working is really dumb.
Very good, fast, organized, and efficient. my only question is, what about rotation? looking for expiration dates and placing newer items in the back and older ones in the front? Unless HEB has a very high inventory rotation where items will rarely expire.
Can anyone give me advice for working in the baking aisle? I work in there all the time and now we lost a lot of people (since November) so now during the heaviest baking seasons I've been in there alone, and I want to be better at my aisle but the spices and jello trip me up especially now (though lately I'm starting to find the area's for spices faster)
@@teamofone1219 bear in mind that this particular individual no longer works for the company. I would not trust anything they say. He got fired from this position due to issues with the team. Definitely not worth paying attention to.
@@teamofone1219 There are literally stools everywhere at this store. If he couldnt find one. Its because he's not thinkin a whole lot about this job or to help the team at all. Lmao.
Spotting the boxes is a huge waste of time. I put the pallet in the center of the aisle and open the case as I walk to the location, stock the items and break the box down as I walk back to the pallet. So much faster imo. I've been doing it for 20 years and have always been faster than the others.
Holidays are going to be hecked ok so don't stress about it just get a pod cast listen to them or have music or creepypasta scary stories while you work Whatever you like just make sure you have a pair of headphones
Like when you stock that section, you start blocking it right away. straight stocking is when you only stock you don't block you'll block later, but you're stuck that entire aisle of that section.
@@Jay5hundo yep. Indeed. And a cutter. And a brace. Its policy. Also you have to get new blades every time. I dont bother because I kept losing so many cutters that even the Night coverage officer got pissed when I kept asking for a new one.
it's when you stock the item and then you start blocking it like you start, have yet to clean up the shelf like let's say you have a shelf and I stalk all of your groceries by make it nice and neat. That's what blocking is pulling all the items up forward, so all the customers can see, but you do at the same time stock and blocked
Hey bro hope u could reply to my comment, I had just recently applied for overnight stocker at my heb and I got a in person interview and it went well, but this morning I got email saying I wasn’t selected, should I apply again or do u think they just don’t want me ?
@ClemenDawg stocking= stocking the items to the shelf and blocking= blocking said items like pulling them 2 items up front of the edge to the shelfs top to bottom the whole aisle and pulling= is pulling the riser of the very top where we keep our back stock and pulling them down to see if they go out or not
Good day , im filipino from the Philippines and im a merchanders for a long yrs. pls help me to apply for this kind of job , i need to support my family 😥
What do you do if you stocked the shelf fully but still there some of the same item on the floor not stocked? Do you have to stock everything and not return anything to the backroom?

Well i can tell you if u worked for me..we would have a talk. To much time wasted. Way to long. Stocking needs to be way faster, specially for those soap aisles.. i seen you handle the same case 4 to 6 times. You do have alot of good points. But still alot of improvement needed. I have been doing this for 18yrs and a manager for 16. I like the video and the tips. Great job. Just try and work on speed and location of spotting items out. Keep it up.
it means to stock and then "condition and face" the product. The label must be facing towards you. Which is the "front" of the item. Conditioned means either to turn it so it is "faced" or to front it so that it is flush with the shelf. I.E, a standard stock controller/team lead will say the item must cover the holes of the shelf. But a really good stock controller or manager will want you to have the item to the edge completely flush. for A+rating "zoning and conditioning" of the aisle.
Stock and block and pull riser the first 2 sections in that order not only that look with your eyes not your head if you can't find the item just skip it and find it later like example it's like skipping a test question but coming back to it later when you "find" out the answer or in this case find where the items goes also don't beat yourself up by not finding it if your new it take 3 month to know the layout of the store and then you will be faster knowing were some of the product go just try to simplify it so you can remember the general area helps out
There is also fast way breaking boxing efficiently with your hand and box quitter hard to explain but it would be easy to show If you have ig you can message me and I will demonstrate it @nathan_akaz
@kevinthomas6924 they will tell you you need to pick up the speed, but they will also tell you to do the heb method. If you still are slow even using their method then they will tell you to pick up the pace and rush you but if you keep showing you're not interested then they will warn you multiple times if that doesn't work they may let you go possibly but that last resort but as long you show you are there to work you will be fin
@@AKassassinz I guess cuz the supervisors I got are two assholes and I just started they already gave me the wrong impression everybody told me to look out for them can I see why
You don’t break down the super strong boxes of jugs. They’re a waste of time. You break down boxes as you go but those boxes get stacked on a pallet and taken straight to the compactor by a pallet jack.
@@lightsout176 I actually do break down those boxes. I do it by standing the box on its smallest face and stomping down the center, then doing the same to the other side. it's because I work a day shift and we need to keep our shit in order, and it also allows me to shove all of my trash in the baler in one cycle
yep. Blows my mind with the 90cph claim. More like 60cph or 45 at times. Ive read the excel spreadsheets of this particular location. Its pure nonsense.
Friends and family ha oof I got like 2 friends and one of them is my coworkers🤣and family eh not so big on my family kinda the black sheep but Ong this job is for introverts and also great for people with tourette's as long as someone else is there to do the glass🤣
@@kingmuffasa27 then it will go on the riser if it's full if it's not full but doesn't fit, I have to move other items to make it fit or just leave it on the ground and let your stock controller now.
@@AKassassinz its so much nicer than lowes. With lowes if more dont fit you gotta top stock the rest of the boxes and the top is already full 🤦🏻♂️. Its ridiculous
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). 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?
You don’t need to remember. You match the last 4 digits of the UPC (barcode you scan to buy the item) with the UPC on the shelf and that’s where it goes. Eventually you will get a handle on where everything goes but it’s not a huge deal. Been at Walmart for 2 years and still don’t know exactly where everything goes.

Fast tip: when spotting your load, spot everything to the right of where it goes. Never blocks where you have to stock the product 👍

My back hurts watching this
i start working monday for the very first time during thanksgiving week , any other tips anyone can share ?
Holidays are going to be hecked ok so don't stress about it just get a pod cast listen to them or have music or creepypasta scary stories while you work Whatever you like just make sure you have a pair of headphones
@@AKassassinzthanks and can you elaborate on straight stock/stack and block ? any tips to perfect it
Like when you stock that section, you start blocking it right away.
straight stocking is when you only stock you don't block you'll block later, but you're stuck that entire aisle of that section.
@@AKassassinz got it , thank you for the tips
Easy bro I’m over night frozen stocker
What kind of kneepads are you wearing and where'd you buy them at?
Heb should provide them as ppe
@@Jay5hundo yep. Indeed. And a cutter. And a brace. Its policy. Also you have to get new blades every time. I dont bother because I kept losing so many cutters that even the Night coverage officer got pissed when I kept asking for a new one.
I’m about to become one at heb is it more easier to use your kneepads and toolbelt or do I need any of those?
Got an overnight interview at HEB in a few days, here's hoping!
how did it go?
Wage?
Same but I have a interview at Walmart instead for overnight stocker

What does blocking mean
can i ask what "stock and block" means? applied for overnight at two grocery stores so just trying to understand.
it's when you stock the item and then you start blocking it like you start, have yet to clean up the shelf like let's say you have a shelf and I stalk all of your groceries by make it nice and neat. That's what blocking is pulling all the items up forward, so all the customers can see, but you do at the same time stock and blocked
My job calls it facing.
thank u for the tip am soon i’ll get this overnight job
Hey bro hope u could reply to my comment, I had just recently applied for overnight stocker at my heb and I got a in person interview and it went well, but this morning I got email saying I wasn’t selected, should I apply again or do u think they just don’t want me ?
Apply again it shows that you want the job
What happened
Did they start u part time then do you have a chance at full time?
You start at part time over the course if you do really well they will ask you to be part time
That's me with breaks I don't need them
Are there people that bring their speakers with them to work over there?
Yes sometimes
One question. Whats stock and block?
@ClemenDawg stocking= stocking the items to the shelf and blocking= blocking said items like pulling them 2 items up front of the edge to the shelfs top to bottom the whole aisle and pulling= is pulling the riser of the very top where we keep our back stock and pulling them down to see if they go out or not
@AKassassinz ooooh. So is blocking the same as zoning? That's what we call it
@ClemenDawg yes
How many boxes can you do per hour?
What are your hours? If you don’t mind me asking?
sounds like it's 10pm-6am
Good day , im filipino from the Philippines and im a merchanders for a long yrs. pls help me to apply for this kind of job , i need to support my family 😥
Im calling tomorrow to ask to work in overnight stocker at walmart what should i say to the manger .i really need this job
What do you do if you stocked the shelf fully but still there some of the same item on the floor not stocked? Do you have to stock everything and not return anything to the backroom?
Depends on the company. We put whatever is leftover on the overhead, like this dude is doing here.
@@louiehernandez1477like on top of the shelf or on top of the product just placed
Do the hardest isles cause the one ur doin is super easy 😂 but good tips tho 💯

Well i can tell you if u worked for me..we would have a talk. To much time wasted. Way to long. Stocking needs to be way faster, specially for those soap aisles.. i seen you handle the same case 4 to 6 times. You do have alot of good points. But still alot of improvement needed. I have been doing this for 18yrs and a manager for 16. I like the video and the tips. Great job. Just try and work on speed and location of spotting items out. Keep it up.
exactly
Its pieces of crap like you us why i no longer do this kind of work, hes doing a great job
You only get 6 hours of sleep?
yeah that my minimum requirements at least the first 3hours you body at rest the next it recovers cycle🔃 start all over so it depends on you
Shiii i worked overnight stockers at lowes and one time only had 2hrs of sleep. Since the last shift
Stock to the back, quality over quantity (case count) but still try to throw decent numbers. spot nice and neat.
Did you ever do dairy how was that ?
What the hell does block mean on the phrase stock and block
it means to stock and then "condition and face" the product. The label must be facing towards you. Which is the "front" of the item. Conditioned means either to turn it so it is "faced" or to front it so that it is flush with the shelf. I.E, a standard stock controller/team lead will say the item must cover the holes of the shelf. But a really good stock controller or manager will want you to have the item to the edge completely flush. for A+rating "zoning and conditioning" of the aisle.
that’s a ridiculous way to stock - picking up case 2 or 3 times then throwing empty boxes on floor - so inefficient
How do i go faster in one hour?
Stock and block and pull riser the first 2 sections in that order not only that look with your eyes not your head if you can't find the item just skip it and find it later like example it's like skipping a test question but coming back to it later when you "find" out the answer or in this case find where the items goes also don't beat yourself up by not finding it if your new it take 3 month to know the layout of the store and then you will be faster knowing were some of the product go just try to simplify it so you can remember the general area helps out
There is also fast way breaking boxing efficiently with your hand and box quitter hard to explain but it would be easy to show
If you have ig you can message me and I will demonstrate it @nathan_akaz
What happens if you get don't move fast but you get the job done
@kevinthomas6924 they will tell you you need to pick up the speed, but they will also tell you to do the heb method. If you still are slow even using their method then they will tell you to pick up the pace and rush you but if you keep showing you're not interested then they will warn you multiple times if that doesn't work they may let you go possibly but that last resort but as long you show you are there to work you will be fin
@@AKassassinz okay thanks I just got hired for Walmart overnight stock
@kevinthomas6924 ooo you don't have to worry about that , just do the task time and you're good when it comes to Walmart
@kevinthomas6924 my wife works at Walmart overnight stocking this is info what she said
@@AKassassinz I guess cuz the supervisors I got are two assholes and I just started they already gave me the wrong impression everybody told me to look out for them can I see why
Nice channel banner 😏
Big mess in the isle, you should be breaking down boxes as you go. How could anyone possibly make it to anything they need ??
overnight btw😅
You don’t break down the super strong boxes of jugs. They’re a waste of time. You break down boxes as you go but those boxes get stacked on a pallet and taken straight to the compactor by a pallet jack.
Look at the title of the video. Overnight stocking, they are most likely closed.
overnight - no one is trying to get in this aisle right now
@@lightsout176 I actually do break down those boxes. I do it by standing the box on its smallest face and stomping down the center, then doing the same to the other side. it's because I work a day shift and we need to keep our shit in order, and it also allows me to shove all of my trash in the baler in one cycle
Thanks for tips it helps
17:50 bro gave up💀💀💀
its not an easy job. Like at all. Lmao
no hate but your slow af💀 You’re doing double the work opening boxes just to set them aside after.
yep. Blows my mind with the 90cph claim. More like 60cph or 45 at times. Ive read the excel spreadsheets of this particular location. Its pure nonsense.
Friends and family ha oof I got like 2 friends and one of them is my coworkers🤣and family eh not so big on my family kinda the black sheep but Ong this job is for introverts and also great for people with tourette's as long as someone else is there to do the glass🤣

What if it dont fit?

@@AKassassinz the extra items
@@kingmuffasa27 then it will go on the riser if it's full if it's not full but doesn't fit, I have to move other items to make it fit or just leave it on the ground and let your stock controller now.
@@kingmuffasa27 and what I mean by moving other items around, most likely other items are not in line which what we call snaking.
@@AKassassinz its so much nicer than lowes. With lowes if more dont fit you gotta top stock the rest of the boxes and the top is already full 🤦🏻♂️. Its ridiculous
Whats block I get stock
Nvm

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). 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?
The most part yes but we put our overstock on the riser we pull rise stock block then whatever can't be stock on the riser and repeat
Ima a night stocker at heb. Could i work overtime like 4 or 5 hours a week over?
Depends have to ask your stock controler
Hello how long did it take for you to remember where everything goes exactly?
You don’t need to remember. You match the last 4 digits of the UPC (barcode you scan to buy the item) with the UPC on the shelf and that’s where it goes. Eventually you will get a handle on where everything goes but it’s not a huge deal. Been at Walmart for 2 years and still don’t know exactly where everything goes.
