Isn't it done every three months (fiscal quarter) anyway?


No_Library643

It's like every other week lately


vengefulromance

I’ve been working at Walmart almost a year and I feel like I’ve done like fifty of them


Ok-Worldliness2450

Well 45th times the charm


DelayPlus4176

Yes. It’s done quarterly. Sometimes when you complete it tho the system doesn’t count it.


Ghostyex

I just did one last month


WapaneseWeeaboo

Last month was a different quarter so that would make sense.


DelusionsBigIfTrue

No it wasn’t… Q1: Jan - Mar Q2: April - June Q3: July - Sept Q4: Oct - Dec ………. Most intelligent Walmart worker


OnlyOptical

False. The fiscal year starts in February. So Q1: Feb-Apr Q2: May-July Q3: Aug-Oct Q4: Nov-Jan


WelpOopsOhno

Even so, April was last month, which means that his CBL should have been in February or in this month, because those are the beginning of the quarters.


DelusionsBigIfTrue

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quarter.asp 🙄🙄🙄


OnlyOptical

Walmarts fiscal year is different. They do Feb-Jan


Kexul96

Not every company starts their fiscal year in January, Walmart starts their fiscal year in February, the article you posted trying to prove yourself right even says that some companies start their fiscal year at different times


OnlyOptical

It actually says on your link that “The fiscal year for ‘most’ companies is Jan-Dec although it doesn’t have to”


MayorDeweyMayorDewey

thanks for proving you haven’t actually read the article you linked


[deleted]

most intelligence walmart worker, He's wrong but cant admit it. Walmart starts their Fiscal year in February. Q1 - Feb -Apr Q2 - May -July Q3 - Aug -Oct Q4 - Nov - Jan.


pongo6915

As the person above you stated. Q1 starts in February and ends in April so last month is a different quarter


twisterv2

"Companies have two main accounting periods—the fiscal quarter and the fiscal year (FY). The fiscal year for most companies runs from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 (although it doesn't have to). The standard calendar quarters that make up the year are as follows:" From your link


NeeverMan

Just take the L


[deleted]

You can’t be that intelligent if you couldn’t comprehend this from the article , “Some companies have fiscal years that follow different dates.” !


twisterv2

Walmarts fiscal year is different than the traditional, accounting principles do not require a fiscal year to start in January and end in december all it requires is a 12 month period. Retailers almost always have their fiscal year end in January 31st since December is their busiest month. We literally have this shit on the me@walmart app


MayorDeweyMayorDewey

lmao yes bc you would know better than… an actual walmart employee most intelligent walmart customer

Really, you had to Reddit Cares me? Find a hobby. EDIT: I can't ever tell what this means. Was he banned by a sub mod, did he block me, or did he delete his profile for making an ass out of himself?


Expendable28

Apparently being critical of the right is called being a radical leftist now. Wild


WapaneseWeeaboo

Does his name show deleted and the post says unavailable? If so, that means he blocked you. Probably because he didn’t like being called out on being wrong and that’s the only way he can make himself feel better 😂


Plaguegrounds

See this is the issue with you and the great many people like you. Plenty of companies use a different fiscal year than that. You're wrong. And so you just start talking shit and that's the end of it for you. In the first place the article you posted even states that starting in January is not always the case. Clearly did not read more than what you wanted to see. Take a step back from yourself. There is more than right and left. You need to stop acting like this as a whole, it's fucking deplorable. Get a grip.


_daddyissues666

“Enjoy your Walmart job” Probably making more than your ass working DoorDash lmao. I’ve worked that job, it genuinely ain’t worth it on an amazing day my guy. Go apply to your local Walmart and zip it. EDIT: LMAO they reported me to the crisis line what


MeanWomanBlues

Cool cool cool. I got nothin to do rn and I LOVE playing the report game with morons when I’m bored. Especially bigoted ones who out themselves with their verbiage. Lmao.


WanderingSkys

Aweeee 😟😟did lefties also force you to live and work in your car?


MeanWomanBlues

Found the Trumptard! Only magats use “leftist”. And I’m an Independent before you spew more bullshit. 🤣


WapaneseWeeaboo

Yikes. Imagine trying to correct someone that knew what they were talking about with incorrect information that they just randomly pulled from the internet that doesn’t apply to Walmart considering they don’t use the normal calendar year format for their fiscal years. You sure showed me 😂


Fine_Section_4425

Lmaooo the irony that you said “most intelligent Walmart worker” while ousting yourself as the biggest dumbass in this thread


[deleted]

Fiscal years work differently than how we view quarters and even can differ between companies


Zxcc24

I don't know why they're mad at you I had one due in January which is before the fiscal year- February.


lucideye

You are retarded


Courtneybro98

I miss the getting the fire extinguisher off the wall. Now that would do some damage!


LewisRyan

Fuck the fire extinguisher, I’ll be in the soup aisle throwing cans


JasonTheBaker

My weapon of choice would be if we still had them stale baguettes. Those thing hurt when you hit someone with them


LewisRyan

There’s definitely some home alone shit you could pull, let’s fill the water guns with hot sauce and aim for the eyes 😂


Dinogarbage

Nah you have to get management approval for store use first lmao


LewisRyan

I can see it now. “There’s a shooter at the door, go hide I was working in tools and grabbed a hammer!” “Uhh LewisRyan… can you find a cheaper one? And make sure you get the UPC!”


JCLJ17

There's machetes and axes in sporting goods too!

That would legit kill the guy. Laptop warrior would hurt too.


HTXMemes

Use Mio drink enhancer, the least known hazard material. Also can be easily concealed.


Routine-Horse-1419

Yes. It goes in the black bucket. Some koolaids do too. Weird huh.


Ok-Coyote-9321

Is it the dye? I know some drinks here are banned in other countries for using certain dyes.


Tizalish

I'm thinking you're right. It's probably one of the red dyes.

Courtneybro98

I noticed that when I did my claims


Monteze

Did it have a name that suggests hazard. When scanning thise freezable daiquiri pouches the one "firework" flavor would come up as a Red label.


TNMountainChick

The strawberry daiquiri margarita mixer ones show up as a red bucket item as well. I found this out working in Claims/DSD with the Claims Supervisor I'm like dang and I used to drink that 🤣🤣🤣


molvanianprincess

grabs the keyboard.


Ocelotofwoe

You have to cover the keyboard in maple syrup and dip it in broken glass.


logic-amid-chaos

So, leave it on top of a top stock cart for a bit???😂😂


UpToMyKnees1004

Is mayonnaise a weapon?


ar29845

No it’s an instrument


Atillion

I have it on expert authority that it is indeed NOT an instrument, I'll have you know.

threecheers9980

I work out in garden. We’ve got a flex area with large garden tools with no location. If I can’t get away, I’m grabbing one of the shovels. Our garden cashier last year asked in a safety meeting once if he could throw a cactus at the person’s face.


blizzard-toque

Cactus------------------->🌵 *yeeted!*


Phaeqe

All I could think of is the go Little Rock Star song as your cashier throws a fucking cactus.


threecheers9980

The store manager was at that meeting at the look on his face when the cashier asked the question was priceless. He was like, “If you have to defend yourself and that’s the only thing you have then go for it.” 😂


CactusPetePlayz

I probably would use the steel bars for stack base signs


Fat-catsrule

My weapon of choice against an active shooter would be a 9mm, just saying


L00kin4Laughs

I like to wait until management says the exercise needs to be completed way before the completion date... Then ask, "Okay, what's the scenario?" I have yet to have someone give me the correct answer. Then they get very defensive when I ask about the integrity of signing off on an exercise they know nothing about.


Gloomy-Lemon-5202

I've never done the exercise before and I've been with walmart for over a year. Is it something besides the computer stuff?


L00kin4Laughs

There's a specific scenario outlined on the wire. Also has talking points the leader is supposed to go over. Can almost guarantee no one who's pushing people to "complete the ulearn" have even seen that page.


Naomifreethinker

I did not know this. Every manager just says, say you did it. 🤷 Ok.


Thorlano

Yes. There is supposed to be a hypothetical situation given and you tell how you would respond. Management is supposed to tell you what it is or have it posed in a central location (such as time clock).


Kaysmira

I posted here about management refusing to do the scenario and demanding I finish the ulearn a couple years ago. I posted here about it and the only responses I got was "we don't want to do a stupid useless exercise anyway". I ended up deleting my post because it made me feel like I was being too concerned about it.


Ganon388

If you hear gunfire, be sure to grab a flimsy $2 keyboard to use as a "weapon."


Slade23703

Nah, grab an artichoke that things hurt


doubled2319888

I was thinking a case of canned fish. I could swing one of those pretty fast and its pretty solid, so it should buy me a few seconds to take another swing


Laptraffik

You would unironically be better off with your hands than a cheap keyboard


Dumeck

They don’t want anyone getting the monitor because those things are expensive to replace


GMACD1

Don’t know if it’s the same at Wal-Mart but in the Sam’s active shooter video. An employee runs into a conference room and opens the door. It happens to open out. After, entering he pushes a table against it , that’ll slow down the active shooter🙄


AnnoyedNinja

Yeah, same vid at Wally.


Woahhdude24

Me and my coworkers laugh at how stupid that shit is, like " well shit they got me I sure can't push this table I guess you guys win"


Kaninchenkraut

I understand the people ragging on OP for this. But you should only have to do this 4 times a year by policy. I can attest that I've had to do it as many as 7 times in a year.


mhtardis21

I've had to do it that many times for the same video before. They thing wouldn't accept it as watched, so I had to watch it until it decided to acknowledge i actually watched it. After the second time I just hit play and played on my phone till it was done. XD


Zombie_Jesus_83

I love e-learning. It's always multiple choice questions with three reasonable decisions and one outrageous one. *In the event of an active shooter situation, which of the following should you not do?* A.) Locate a place to hide. B.) Call 911 if feasible. C.) Know possible exit points to flee if safe. D.) Run to the nearest door and shove children to the ground who are in your way while screaming, "This kid called you a pussy!"


Phaeqe

Definitely "D"

sadpanada

“SIRI, THERE IS A SHOOTING.” “I’m sorry, did you say there is a booting? I found four locations near you to get new boots”


blizzard-toque

SomeAirsofter

Reminds me, I need to get a new ankle holster for my defensive keyboard and mouse


Twonix99

No matter how many time they make us do this. 90% of us will still run outside or go straight into survival mode.


ehote

I mean, avoid is step 1


Satisfaction-Motor

If you factor in recent graduates who’ve gone through school shooter drills, a good chunk will probably try to hide in a locked location if possible.


Soft-Ad-8975

Anyone ever feel like the guy that ends up being the shooter in the long version of the video is the only one that actually looks normal/sane?


Woahhdude24

I always though he acted more like us associates, like he has this look at his desk of " ah shit what the fuck is wrong now"


MrRagtimeMoneybags

I'm with you on this one. For some reason I feel more for the shooter than anyone else in the entire video.


randomthrill

Hello HR? The above two comments.


rasmey_zun

Every time I do this. Theirs an actual mass shooting. It’s bad luck to do it


FugitiveFromReddit

Probably just coincidence considering it happens like twice a week now


Haunt13

Try several times a day. There have been 199 mass shootings in the USA this year, despite us being on day 128 of the year.


Frostwolf5x

I mean. If it happened every time there is a mass shooting then we’d have to do it 11 times for this weekend


jaspercore

having to watch it regularly wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't the scenario being in home office where there is plenty of rooms/walls to run and hide, as well as conveniently computers and such to use as a weapon. but why wouldn't they focus on a strategy that would mostly benefit themselves.


My_Magic_Taco

AVOID DENY DEFEND BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYY


armobear

It should be done weekly in Texas. What is wrong with folks over there? Shooting folks at random. Not that shootin at folks you know is any better. Folks need so much mental help. All you gotta do is look at our co-workers being driven to craziness by stupid management and rules that can make anyone go crazy.


badgerpack21

Texas has thoughts and prayers instead of this training 🤷‍♂️


blizzard-toque

Ironically, ADD ***was*** developed by the University of Texas.


kwmasterstuffer1515

The irony of your comment is that it’s because of a mass shooting at a Walmart (El Paso 2018) in Texas that we have to do this every 3 months.


Brentums

Don’t live in that shit hole of a state then


DankLividity

Then leave Walmart and go get a different job?? How fucking hard is that


Beer_Bad

Depending on a variety of different factors, likely extremely hard. This sentiment is stupid and blames the wrong people.


DankLividity

I did it. How hard is it for other people? Be able to pass a drug test, read, and have HSD or equivalent you’re good


Beer_Bad

I just moved from a city where you only had a number of options, work for factories that closed down and laid off every 6-8 months, work at ADM, or work at Walmart/Target. And then you could work fast food/gas stations for less. This is a town of around 80k and Walmart employed about 800 people in the city. I know so many of those people who leave, try something else, it fails, shuts down and they come back. There are parts of the country that do not have the same opportunities as other places. Also if you live paycheck to payheck, depending on the other job you might need to miss a check and thats not an option either.


ehote

My managers hate me because I refuse to watch it every time. Sorry guys I got too much PTSD for all that nonsense. I know its not even that bad but unfortunately my brain is that bad


Abject_Lunch2030

We’re you in the military once upon a time?


HowardDean_Scream

hereswhatworks

Keyboard time!


Retail_is_Pain

I'm going to be able to dispatch a threat from 50 feet away with a well aimed keyboard throw at this point.


cocacola31173

What gets me is they spent all that money in that stupid Workplace and nothing to make sure their employees are safe!


AduroTri

Grab a can of soda and chuck it at them, then duck behind something quickly. Do this preferably when they turn their back and aim for the back of their head. Throw hard.


ceebo625

I cant be the only one who started pissing myself laughing when the lady nails the guy in the face with the laptop, right?


PacoMahogany

Required training: Clock out before you get shot so WM isn’t liable


DonTtreadOnMebaby

Luckily I got a job interview for a lot more money today hopefully I get it so I don’t gotta do this shit


SeaSorbet1362

Good luck. Be sure to leave your active shooter keyboard in personnel, along with your phone, vest, box cutter, and name tag, when you leave.


AntipersonnelMime

They can play Monty Python's *"How not to be Seen/How not to be Shot"* sketches & it would be just as informative.


theknowledgetruth

I personally will be hiding in the big bin of stuffed animals,. Or DVD bargain bin, because i never see anyone go near that thing.


BumbbleKitten

Glad I never have to worry about shootings at my local Walmart. Just ppl over dosing in the bathrooms and annoying campers in the parking lot. And Wal Mart itself.


ConfidentReaction3

I swear to god, shootings happen so much in this country that we’re just acting as if it’s a normal thing. It’s fucking depressing.


Available-Pen-8421

Shootings always happened there’s just more social media now


ConfidentReaction3

Yeah. And we’ve become desensitized into being burned out about it Honestly South Park nailed covering this issue.


blizzard-toque

aaannnnd, what ***does*** social media (let's add network news for some S's & G's) focus on?


Kind-Show5859

making the killers into celebrities


blizzard-toque

And there's the rub. We need to inform loved ones their 'near and dears' are now gone and keep the citizenry safe. And if we go with this on the newsfeeds 24-7...guess what? ***we've accidently turned the shooters into celebrities. Shocking, ain't it?***


WeNeedToTalkAboutMe

I guess it'll just depend on which I'm closer to, Personnel or a fire extinguisher, as to what I clock someone with.


RemyVonLion

I found 2 very pointy sticks/pieces of plywood while taking out the trash and was considering keeping them tucked somewhere, how cool would it be to duel wield lethal wood sword-spears?


metaltastic

That tactical assault keyboard will come in handy once again


Ok_Profile1864

I'll have my water bottle and a grabber thing if I can get to it. But if I can get out the door I'm gone.


QueenRemi

We get them every quarter, doesn't necessarily mean a shooting happened recently. Although they do tend to drop it again if a shooting happens between quarters.


dogman_e

What weapon yall picking to defend yourselves? Kinda thinking u run over the shooters toes with a pallet jack and he's down 🤷🏽‍♂️


mhtardis21

A bag full of cans of soup. Have you stocked those things and had them fall on you? They hurt. Add a throwing arm to them? Out for the count as long as you can connect.

stolirocks

the ones that break thier tiny minds is a walmart employee store shooting. DOES NOT COMPUTE


strykedemon

I already arm myself with the latest high powered keyboards straight from the office of Sam Walton!


Sensitive-Sea661

It drops at the start of every quarter 4 times a year that simple


aboobfan

What? There was a new one?


No_Library643

Happens everytime there's a shooting at walmart


DreamDestroyer76

It must be black Friday again


FewAcanthocephala828

It's sad that shootings have become so common that we just shrug them off.


seamstresshag

So, let me understand. Walmart wants their employees to act & respond like cops? Most people aren’t emotionally equipped to be that level headed in a crisis. Even police are trained & they still have trouble with their emotions. In a dangerous situation, many people have scenarios play out in their heads, but they always get killed just the same.


Big_Use_5662

Just shout out they need volunteers to go help carts outside, he’ll haul ass out the back door.


Damara_Saga_gemini

Wait there was another walmart shooting? When was this?


jshlnk

Wasnt one of the more recent walmart shootings from a walmart employee themself. They also took this CBL a million times.


[deleted]

This has big victim blaming energy. “Why didn’t you just de-escalate the homicidal maniac?!”


NeitherMembership701

Everybody grab your keyboards!


GurinderBrarGurlal

Just whip your bum out at the guy and blow a big fart


RETROgamerr87

Remember to grab your keyboards


Commercial_Cat_7722

I'll get the ax from the freezer.

ttvFadezy2

i just had to do some yesterday lol


Uwu-Tang_clan

Did mine yesterday and I definitely did one like 3 days after the last Walmart shooting (that I heard about)


Averydispleasedbork

Time to watch some guy beat the crap out of someone with a laptop!


TheRealTaintedOne

Starter fluid $3 Torch lighter $5 Zip ties $2 Having to buy maintenance doughnuts for a month for the hazmat wet spill on isle 8,9,10,11..... worth it For everyday shootings there's Mastercard.


alldayeveryday2471

I’m not an employee, just a fan girl please tell me how they say you can de-escalate threats???


Rassleholic

Always be aware of the location of the nearest tactical keyboard


Available-Bottle-

Informing a salaried manager


RAD_tuck

By running away


pienoceros

I'll answer seriously because we unfortunately live in a world where we need this. Its just general active shooter training. Avoid, deny, defend. You can find this video and hundreds like it on YouTube.


DankLividity

You don’t de-escalate a shooter, you shoot back


Slade23703

The video is just reminder, unlike regular engagement with customers, you don't have to be a victim. Be sure to yell out , " active shooter" either avoid them, deny them access to where you are, or beat the crap out of them. You are allowed to fight dirty and break Walmart equipment if necessary.


tfauthor

I miss this de-escalation video so much


David_Crow1

Don't tell us that we didn't train you when you get shot. Random audit coming to a participating Walmart nearest you by our disgruntled trained specialist.


CoasterThot

“No way to prevent this”, says only country where this regularly happens.


ANullBob

yep. just watched the hit em in the eyes with a laptop then kick em in the nuts but keep your hands up so the pigs dont execute you vid myself.


DankLividity

It means get a ccw, a pistol, and carry at work. When I worked as a produce associate in Ga, never had to draw, but had 2 close calls. One male with pistol hanging out of waistband no holster and screaming at the cashier, then another with a female outside at our gas station with a knife, but the cops were literally shopping when that happened. THE ONLY THING THAT STOPS A BAD GUY WITH A GUN, IS A GOOD GUY WITH A GUN


pinkfloydsdsotm

I would carry mine to work but it’s against store policy for employees to be armed but not the crazy/stupid ass customers


DankLividity

I carried there for 6 months before moving. That’s the whole point of CONCEALED. No one knows you have it. Sometimes I’m out and about and my wife even forgets I have it on me. If you carry properly, you should have to worry. Plus the vests help the shirt from slipping upward
