Come to work with me || Walmart Cap 2 associate || Day in the life of a Cap 2 associate

What prevents me from doing what I love most.. Knotting friendship bracelets, wall hangings & more! Todays a bit of a different video.
Come to work with me at Walmart!

[@user-ke9vk4iv4y]

I work Cap 2 and the women at my store actually help unload the truck and do everything the guys do. I think the most challenging thing is breaking down frozen and dairy when people are always asking for your help.

[@bybrandiann]

do the women like actually throw the truck too? we can only push the line if we’re short staffed but we also do pretty much the same as the guys as well.

[@bobby.m136]

I'm starting off this week as a cap 2 at the superstore in Plymouth, this video has been very helpful many thanks

[@Gahsonie]

I love how all of your clothing is basically all anime related, I love it 🥰💖

[@katiecookie7796]

I’m cap 2 I remember those old vests they changed them to a bright blue one hate them and get dirty really fast. Honestly some days are better we are understaffed a lot of the time but we manage to get everything done, breakpacks are fun lol

[@bybrandiann]

LOL I still wear my old vest 😂 they gotta catch me for me to even want the new one. Yeah same goes to my department and they been cutting our hours back. Break-packs for the most part are my thing I’m so good at it 🥹

[@Ayirra]

those vests dont come clean either i swear i get away with wearing sweat pants tho except tomorrow... i have to wear jeans or khakis because of inventory.

[@tori8396]

breakpacks suck until you memorize stuff. when i started it would take me like 150% of the time expected, now after 7 months, i can rlly get into it and it usually takes me slightly less than expected. training someone new tomorrow though!!

[@lemickeysantos565]

My CAP 2 experience was horrible. Probably bc of the bad management at our store but work was extremely stressful and tiring every day

[@bybrandiann]

I agree, cap 2 in my opinion is one of the most tiring/stressful departments in Walmart.

[@brittaniagrace]

@@bybrandiann how about cap 3?🥺 I just got in the interview as my second job but I’m getting cold feet

[@bybrandiann]

Hi! I can’t really say because I have no experience working in that department but from what I’ve heard it’s usually just stocking and returns. And I guess depending on how supervisors/managers wanna act also takes a toll.

[@missred7122]

I love my cap 2 team but we're all about to jump ship to other areas bc one of our leads is verbally abusive and nothing is getting done about it.

[@Ayirra]

girl i also do breakpacks and my hat is off to you i refuse to use those dumb gray totes the are so hard to pick up and ive had too many coaches to where my area is def no where close to being organized with those i dont even bother now but i hate it around inventory where we get 2 truck days last week they gave me an unrealistic expectation when the 3rd shift coaches came in and wanted me to finish 3 pallets of breakpacks again after the 2nd truck just finished at 10 and wanted me to finish in 30 mins i laughed in their face and said i leave at 11 but i kinda like the breakpacks tho sometimes makes me feel excluded from the rest of the team but im useually cleaning up the back room, makeing a bale, or helping on the truck im one of the 2 or 3 pp in my cap 2 team that can pull most of the wieght of my other team memebers and its pretty funny when i out do some of the grown men on my team by picking up pallets by myself lololol i wish they would train more ppl tho to do breakpacks so i can take a vacay every once in awhile lol oay my rant is done lol sorry

[@bybrandiann]

you sounds just like me except making the bale part 😭 I try to show my team that I’m just as good as them as well. I’m not gonna lie though sometimes I feel under appreciated because of my supervisors overall I love my team but maybe thinking of overnight soon.

[@skateboardinguitaris]

I just switched from fresh to cap 2 this week. I want to like it so much. Its way better than fresh, I can tell you that... but the shifts here go from 2-11 and basically take away the whole day.. then on top of that, idk if its just me, but it just feels so boring and miserable being couped up in the back all day. Maybe its just first week jitters. 🤷‍♂️

At my store the shift was 2-11 but they changed it 1-10 which is no different to me 😭 that’s the only thing I don’t like about cap 2 too your whole entire day is being at the store.

[@bobbbanar2158]

I know this is a bit old, but I’m glad to see some other store’s Cap 2 process. It’s a bit different from mine. Source: Cap 2 TL 😅

[@idkwhatever6232]

yoo im a cap 2 associate im wondering what do the TL do all day? to us it mostly seems like they just talk to us and sometimes go to the desk/computer in our backroom. so like how our main goals are truck, unmix remix, etc. what are ur guys main goals that gotta get done each day?

[@bobbbanar2158]

@@idkwhatever6232 Speaking for myself, I try to arrive nine minutes (the max without getting half pointed 🙄) before shift start to do a lineup, check call-offs, etc. At 2 we hold the daily huddle, assigning tasks/departments to each associate and going over any notes handed down from salaried management. If we’re able to start the GM unload on time, I’ll spend part of the unload helping work the line, doing one touch and throwing, basically helping the team and being present. If it’s going well, I’ll bounce to the other side of the store and help make sure the remix downstacker(s) have pallets and carts and unload the pallets in a way that allows them to downstack without completely clogging up the backroom. Afterwards, I’ll head to the floor if we have associates working old freight to make sure they’re making progress, working quickly and safely etc. Then I’ll head back to the GM unload and start pulling grocery carts to the staging area closer to the floor so at 9 PM we’re ready to pull to the floor. Somewhere between all that I’ll make sure high ticket paperwork is printed and ready to be checked off after the truck is unloaded. This is usually around the time the FDD truck arrives, so I’ll unload that, sometimes with the help of a Food and Consumables associate, sometimes alone. If need be, I’ll help get freight out of topsteel with the walkie-stacker or grills from lawn and garden with the scissor lift. Once the unload is done, most of the next few hours are verifying that associates are performing their tasks as assigned, assisting with whatever projects are passed down from salaried management, helping work some freight in each area without being bogged down in any given one, helping fill water, finding high ticket freight, cleaning up spills and organizing the backroom so it’s safe to get through until the freight is pulled. In the last two hours of the shift, I pull the remaining remix freight from the trailer while one associate pulls it to the floor and stages it for overnight. Afterwards I’ll grab a jack and help pull GM freight. Lastly, I’ll do claims and finish the night with a walk through the backroom making sure everything was pulled, the trailer is completely empty, swept and locked up, one touch totes are all out on the sales floor and any high ticket freight is locked up. Write an email explaining what was completed, what was left, if anyone went home early/came in late/called off etc., check attendance, my PTO/PPTO balance, possibly do a lineup for the next day, turn in my keys, clock out and go home.

[@idkwhatever6232]

Good vid! I'm currently looking for my 1st job it most likely will be GameStop not sure though the interview will happen soon so the interview will determine if I can work at GameStop. If I can't work at GameStop will either work at Walmart or Target. What do you think is a better place to work at Walmart or Target? Also how is Walmart for people who have disabilities and are shy and if you let them know it's your 1st job are they easy on you. In terms of being shy of course it takes practice to be less shy when you work at retail it can make you less shy.

[@bybrandiann]

Thank you! and tbh I can’t say which one would be better since I’ve never worked at a target but they seem quite similar but I’m sure they have their differences as well. Walmart is actually pretty nice to people with disabilities they would usually put you to work up front though and won’t make you work tough tasks and for the shy part it’ll eventually go away once you get use to your work environment cause I too am shy 😭
