Is the future of shopping for food?

For me it's a mexican family of 20 blocking the aisles.

>>21507232
With the kids bouncing the balls that they took from toys just to play with and discard it wherever.

>>21507217 (OP)
the future is carside pick up or delivery only. They do not want you freely walking merchandise at all anymore.

>>21507241
The future is a automated warehouse that finds, bags, and delivers your groceries within an hour. That’s a good thing.

I do most of my regular pantry or frozen stuff shopping online. I don't need a trip to Walmart for a can of crushed tomatoes or frozen veggies. Fresh produce though, and proteins, I'll go to a better store than Walmart, and usually right when they open at 7 or 8am on a Sunday, when it's empty. This is a skill issue. Time management is the skill in question.

>>21507217 (OP)
Its infuriating because the only workers at walmart have no fucking awareness and don't into societal norms like moving the fuck out of the way once in a while so others can get by. I just want to yelling like a maniac every time some fucking boomer is so completely unaware they and a walmart cart like that are stopping 10+ people from walking the aisle. It shouldn't be like this where 1 retard, sometimes that retard is the employee stops multiple people because they don't fucking care others are just tryign to go about their day. The asocial behavior must stop and it should be legal to beat people over the head with a rubber hose until they act right.

>>21507241
Albuquerque is currently building a Walmart warehouse solely for curbside. That will be interesting. No way in hell I'm driving a half hour for that, especially the city it's in

I like to pick my vegetables and see what I'm buying, Mr. Schwab. Retards like you clap for all innovations without thinking on whether they actually make the world better or not.

Not having employees or aisles will improve the company's bottomline but it will not help me because I won't get to ser what I'm buying.

Albuquerque? The entire state is a shithole. You live in a shithole state. Good on walmart though for trying to get fewer employees clogging up aisles making grocery shopping worse for people who aren't so fucking lazy to get their own food.

>>21507275
Calling this retarded hellhole a shithole is giving us too much credit

This is one of the worst places on earth

>>21507217 (OP)
it's old fucks standing around like zombies or guys that wander aimlessly without carts that look like they have nothing better to do

>Excuse me? May I look at or pick up merchandise were you are at? Thank you!
>>21507285
My pet peeves are elderly or morbidly obese people using riding carts, since they move like snails. People with no situational awareness also bug me.
>>21507249
I tried to teach my associates to work with their eyes up while they work, but it is annoying as a shopper to deal with them to.
>>21507275
I don't think it will do that much to transfer demand to other stores, she might still be dealing with the same problems.

Shop at nicer stores. The prices are higher, but the aisles are more clear and the people are more polite.

>>21507217 (OP)
While definitely annoying the real problem with walmart is they apparently don't stock their fucking shelves anymore. Half of the grocery items are out at any given time (probably because op's assholes grabbed it all) to the point where I don't even bother. If I'm going to have to go somewhere else anyways to get the shit they're out of I might as well just go somewhere else in the first place.

>>21507269
You are going to be the geezer swiping through 50 cantaloupes on the kiosk screen looking for the best one while young omegas scoff behind you because everybody knows fruit is just for fiber and micronutrients.

>>21507324
If I lived closer to a Central Market, I would be doing all my grocery shopping there.

>>21507394
If I shopped at the grocery store closest to me I'd be shopping at Food4Less (ghetto kroger). Fuck that.

It's not a fucking zoo, if all you are going to buy is soda and snack the refrain from taking up space in the rest of the store. They have a soda aisle and a candy aisle for a fucking reason

>>21507454
This is why I avoid discount and ethnic stores at the beginning of the month. There's a winco a couple miles away that's near some ghetto apartments. Hell naw.

>>21507562
Short coded perishables are supposed to be marked down. You're within rights to tell him to mark it down or hand you one that's more fresh. If they're being lax on marking down their meat, then that's a sign that meat department is going to shit. Don't buy the meat there.

>>21507571
You already paid for it by the time you get it. No refunds.

>>21507576
>You already paid for it...

So by "picked" that meant pickup? That's what you get for not doing your own shopping. You can't trust pickers.

>>21507217 (OP)
Hopefully they're all replaced by an automated vending machine the size of a warehouse, it'd benefit all mankind. Same for liquor stores and all retail for that matter. I have a drive thru liquor store which is a mild improvement but doesn't keep the street apes out of mine.
>>21507249
All Walmart shoppers and workers are absolute gremlins, you should know this by now. Everyone should lose any and all expectations when walking into one. The shit I've seen is insane
>t. former Walmart and retail worker

>>21507232
They should all be rounded up and turned into dog food

>>21507656
>but doesn't keep the street apes out of mine.
It's a liquor store. How is it NOT going to attract shit customers?

>>21507256
Only trannies use that word

>>21507243
Fuck that, I hate buying online. Let me go actually SEE and TOUCH what Im buying. I like visiting malls in cities I stop in but they're all dying because everythings online now.

>>21507232
i hate when i just need to get an item and it seems like there's an unending stream of brown children hopping up in down, screaming right in front of me when i just need to grab some chips

>>21508231
and only incels are constantly bringing up trannies out of nowhere

>>21507243
but I actually like going to the grocery store :(

Should be limited for off hours. They don't bug me really though. Just gather everything and get them in the fridges by the front before you open. Simple dimple.

>>21508534
>Should be limited for off hours.
hell no, I want my delivery today
they helped me out yesterday though, I rely mostly on delivery so I don't know where blocks of velvetta are and they weren't in the isle the website showed. and I already walked two isles before opening the website to check the isle.
FUCK I hate walking through walmart
but it was a fucking negress that wouldn't move her ass when blocking the isle

>>21508550
Fuck you. You don't need it today. You wait a day or two. You are just making things pricier.

If it were up to me if you want to mail order food you should be limited to doing it twice a week. Hell, I only go in for groceries every month or so. More or less. Less in winter.

All these people demanding food shit now and retarded groceries catering to it just ruin things for everyone else who shop normally and jack up prices.

>>21508550
You don't have to shop at Walmart retard. Go to a fucking grocer.

>>21507243
haha yeah I sure enjoy never interacting with other people ever

>>21508570
Modern people are too entitled, I guess that's what happens when a life of comfort makes you soft. All these luxuries didn't even exist until recently yet nowadays people act like they'll fucking die without them

Our aisles are huge here. You could have stockers on opposite sides from each other and still have a lane to take a cart between them.

Stop shopping at Walmart.

>>21508572
I used to shop almost exclusively at safeway but they drastically overcharge on most things that aren't on sale. About the only thing they have a consistently good price on is soda and that's a once a month buy of 4-5 12 packs for $20.

>>21509562
Apparently. I just don't understand it man.. fuck it if you wanna bring your entire bloodline to walmart okay but to stick together like that the entire time and not split up is madness. Like it really is always 6+ mofos in a small isle for no reason.

>>21509497
I could buy the same Chinaman products from Amazon or Target, but I won't.

Go there at a different time. They restock at specific times

>>21509683
and those specific times happen to be during peak shop hours

>>21507249
>asocial behavior
You can simply ask or tell them to move, you dispshit. It isn’t hard. There’s no way I’m letting 10 people pile up, not even 2 or 3 without opening my mouth. You’re the asocial one of you can’t do that.

If I have to go to walmart for things its best to go when the open on a weekday in the morning. The slugs usually arent awake that early. I do a lot of my shopping at the commissary on post because its a cheaper/tax free but on certain days/close to payday its packed with old retirees and fat Army wives with their gremlins spending their husbands money. So I schedule my shopping when I know they are broke.

>>21507217 (OP)
When you're trying to get something and 2 old people bump into each other. So now they have to have an entire conversation in the middle of the aisle

You know that the "Wal" stands for

And
Loathsome
Right? Because that's what you are if you shop there

>>21507249
Oh they have self awareness. They are doing it on purpose. They are trained explicitly to be assholes to everyone, even their fellow employees.

>>21509821
No its short for Walton

And nobody is going to mistake you for upper class because you have some irrational hatred for Walmart. It just makes you look desperate and sad.

people have been casually using the word "nigga" on 4chan since there has been a 4chan

>>21507243
that's how you end up with the produce no one there who can look at it will buy.

>>21510284
it's mostly used now because there's still that "no racism outside of /b/" rule or whatever which is only selectively enforced when you piss off a janny and they need a reason to request you get banned

i only do curbside pickup these days. i value my free time too much for it to spent dealing with olds and racial minorities, or standing 20 deep in the checkout line.

>>21507217 (OP)
I don't get why they don't just do this in the stock room instead of in the public area. What's the point of stocking a shelf only to remove it 10 minutes later?

>>21509794
>. It isn’t hard.
what fucking planet did you post this from? i know it wasn't from planet walmart

>>21510558
Most things in the stock room aren't very accessible and they want to maintain a first-in-first-out physical inventory management system.

>>21507232
What I don't get is, does not a single one of them need to be at work at that time? They all just happen to have time off, at the exact same time?

>>21511107
>does not a single one of them need to be at work at that time?
No, they're all on food stamps, SS disability payments, WIC, EBT, SNAP, they make more money as a familial unit sharing on all the scammed money.

>>21511112
Let me get this straight. So, what you're telling me, is that, it's not the case that the family is so enormous, that those 20-ish people are the small percentage of the family who would theoretically have time off of work at that time?

>>21511140
No Neo, what I'm saying is they don't even have a job to go to for work. Tax dollars go to them to keep them alive.

>>21507454
Whenever I shop at the Asian store the problem is the Asians themselves. All the driving jokes also apply to shopping carts and they lack situational awareness.

I work in an online only store doing inventory so I'm surrounded by those things all day. Half the personal shoppers have zero spatial awareness and the company only cares about speed so I've been hit at least twice. They can easily be 200kg easily not fully loaded.
Our old trolleys only had 6 totes but the new 8 ones are so high I can barely see over it let alone a tiny asian chick. Can you look to the side before you go? Yes. But they don't.

I work in a store and it's not just Mexicans. I've seen white and black families. It was more common during the pandemic when SNAP EBT cards were everywhere. Though I've noticed white families are usually people traveling in RV's hauling ATV's and motocross bikes.

More common now is condescending zoomers and fat millennials following one old fat momma on a motorized scooter. Most likely case is they're all living off of her disability and SNAP benefits.

>>21507217 (OP)
>Is the future of shopping for food?

From what I vaguely understand it's this: >>21507241 >>21507243

Lots of Walmarts have fired all their night staff, so they have to do inventory during the day, and they don't offer 24/7 or even early shopping anymore. They're trying to convert the physical business into a warehouse, automate as much of the staff as possible, and sell groceries entirely through either the self-check out in the front, phone app, or online, with delivery.

>>21508379
Youre both right

>>21509561
racial minorities and women alike love to take advantage of their new found privilege in the western world by being a total public nuisance in anyway possible. because if they were living in their own third world country, or a pre feminism world that shit would never fly, and they would get called out, or violently checked if they were to speak out of line, or walk in front of someone purposely, or talk over their superiors. its a fucked up reality, if you give someone an inch they'll take a mile. i retaliate by checking these behaviours as much as possible, when committed by these groups of people. For instance if a group of indians is walking down the sidewalk on the wrong side, i make a point of purposely not making way, and following the correct flow of pedestrians, even if it means walking straight into the curry cloud that surrounds this group.

>>21511606

The logical endpoint of this is the elite genociding the lower classes when they are not useful and turning them into genetically engineered cyborg slave cattle when they still are.

I get groups of 4-6 black teenagers using multiple fat people electric motor carts while giggling and randomly stopping in the middle and not acknowledging anyone else around them. They really make me not racist.

Scamming the system is more profitable than having a job. Even if they do have a job, they are still scamming benefits. They probably make more than you.

That's not true. you will see overnight usually start coming into the store about 10 pm and on the floor maybe 15-20 minutes after.

Those animals will destroy the store if you let them. Working at Walmart is only feeding my confirmation bias and racism.
