Body cameras and the footage they gather are commonly advertised as a way to prevent shoplifting, but Walmart intends to use the tech for worker safety.
Walmart is toxic. I worked there for about a year. It was the most stressful and aggravating year of my life. The breakroom was always filled with employees having breakdowns and anger-venting to each other. Don’t blame the employees. Don’t shop there. The Waltons do not deserve your money.
I have worked in toxic jobs like that before. I took it out on my bosses. The only customers who I took it out on were the ones who were asking for it. Which most of what I’ve seen from Walmart employees just isn’t true.
I worked at Target twice. Two different times, each about 10 years apart, and at two different locations with totally different people. It was the same exact experience both times. Management playing favorites, and playing games with employees they don’t like. Unfair expectations from some management team so far up you don’t even know their names or faces. Coworkers who all claim to be just doing their best, but then you find out they’re politicing behind your back. All of this for barely above minimum wage.
My first time was when I was 19, and also working with my girlfriend. I didn’t tolerate people treating her poorly, and so I walked out with her, when we both realized what was happening. She was getting bullied, and I was getting smile to the face knife behind the back sort of deal. 10 years later, I wasn’t with her anymore, but got basically the same experience. Which leads me to believe that once you’ve been there a while, Target culture leads you to act this way.
I also remember watching the same anti-union video both times upon being hired. Like…the literal same exact video 10 years apart.
But, to get back to the point, yeah, I do blame the employees if they act like that to everybody. At Target, I can’t remember a single customer acting so far out of line as for me to yell at them. It wasn’t until years later that I worked at a shady hotel that I had to put some customers in line.
