"Hell no I fucking hate this job" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

It's a decent job (I guess) but I wouldn't recommend staying there for long time. Hours are usually terrible and a shift can last like 11-12 hours if working full - time. If you really have to work there ask manager if it's possible to work ~20-30 hours a week. Be on time for interview, ask some questions (even if you don't care that much about that store) and 99.99% that they will hire you.

Oh god, this is exactly what I needed before my shift. Thank you for 100% accurately describing a basic grocery job. :)

Grocery store workers r underratedly tough lmao we get payed the bare minimum to do the most boring shit for eight hours at a time. Like don’t get it twisted we will throw hands on the job

[dubb]

there is no communication between managers and the lower employees. each shift will do different things and not communicate with the others... then night shift usually fucks everything up if they choose to do anything at all. your day will consist (if your a grocery clerk) unloading trucks of pallets, breaking down those pallets onto "U-Boats" mostly store brand stuff atleast my store you will only fill water isle, paper isle and some goya. you will work the freezer (fucking sucks) and will do dairy also. basically the grocery clerk is the worker bee of the store you will work everything when things needs to be done milk, eggs, freezer, store brand goods, water, paper towels/ napkins. store brand soda etc.. you then will load trucks with empty pallets and plastic . you will be showing customers where items are even if its not your designated zone. you will be asked to check the back for something even when you know its not back there or you have nothing back there for the sole purpose of customer service . you will break down boxes and put them in the bale, after the bale gets filled to a certain level you will take wires and create a bale brick to put onto the truck. you will do this every day. same shit everyday. you will eat chicken that comes from the deli or a sandwhich from the deli and some candy maybe or cookies as a snack everyday unless you pack your own lunch. if you work 8 hours you get a half hour lunch you must clock out for. anything below 8 hours you get a 15 min break that you dont need to clock out for. the job fucking sucks and you do more then what your asked to do and are payed for. Its a good first job for highschool kids and maybe someone whos been a fuck up most of their teens / young adult hood and just needs a job to get a start into the workforce. as for a career i couldnt imagine doing this shit day in and day out. schedules are never the same unless youve worked there for a few years and are part of the union. thats the other thing. the guys thats been there 10 years plus and are in the union will never show up and when they do they are lazy, they know they will get a paycheck either way. Its an hourly job so my advice is to work but dont work hard and dont be lazy, just go at a chill pace, take your time breaking down the boxes, take your time going to the bale, take your time putting the boxes in the bale. if you over work yourself they will expect you to work like that all the time.

Oh boy, you are too funny! I love your advice and and you are so hysterical! I have a grocery store interview in a day and you made me feel a whole lot better. Thank you!

I watched this two weeks ago, applied at 2 different stores and got accepted at the second one. Frankly, this video helped me more than the ones that promise to tell you the "right" answers for an interview question

I work for a super market that has gone all online training.
The new staff that have done the online training seem to think they know more then the staff that have worked in the super market for years.
We older staff can see all the mistakes but management save money and never really know what is happening on the floor.
In person training is so much better.

[adansanchez]

i need the story about the manager impregnating his employees tho😭😭

[renlwblnd]

I loved this! You are straight up and explain what life is really about. Keep it up and post more!!!

[thomashernandez]

Oh man now I know what to do when I work at a grocery store

[kazadventures]

Jim seems awesome. Grocery stores are a lot like other workplaces. Annoying customers, incompetent managers and unethical intimate workplace relations.

I've been doing research for a big grocery store related documentary I'm working on and this video came up and I was like "what the heck I'll watch it" and this was actually really funny! I love your style of telling stories and jokes! Definitely earned my subscription lol

[ANDY-ienh]

Yes that happens at pretty much all grocery stores. They fired two people that I know of at Sprouts for being drunk on the job. They fired this random dude I never spoke with who I know of because he approached me in the parking lot and wanted to know if I was interested in buying any pain killers off of him. I said no and I told him not to talk so loud when selling that because he had a super loud voice like he was shouting kinda. Well everyone needs food even the drug addicts.

[DJThatPlush]

Can we get a sequel in here?
Thinking about working at a Safeway this summer, I swear half the videos are like “it’s pretty great!” and the other half seem to think it’s the worst thing I’ll ever experience.
Your humor and editing is great btw keep it up my dude!

[KrenzyHD]

I came here looking for genuine advice and mate you’re HILARIOUS, so surprised you only have 5k subs! I had to sub, keep it up man👏🏽

[ramirog]

I work in 2 different grocery stores and this is spot on. You had me rolling, you have a new subscriber dude.

[dindinnnn]

Lmao do more story times! Also i work at sprouts too but i work in the bakery .. love the people there yo! I think they’re the best. Just management is a little shady sometimes bc our store manager is kinda moody so when he’s stressed he stresses everyone out

[zekeholloway]

i work at giant eagle in curbside so i am a personal shopper and i really like it so far! we move around alot but some days can be slow but it pays good enough and i get really good hours. my manager is amazing, better than our previous department manager, she basically didn't do anything.

This was far more entertaining than I thought it would be, thanks
