I just bought my own key for those cabinets because even if I order something from my local Walmart for delivery or pickup that is in one of these, they will say it's sold out even if they have a full shelf of shit.

You're claiming they all use the exact same key and also no one sees you on a security camera and kicks you out..? Also they just refuse to sell you things they have but lie about..?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You ever work at Walmart? Nobody actively monitors the cameras and the cabinets all use a T-shaped barrel key. Usually only a single employee carries the keys and with the time constraints set by OGP (the team that fills pickup and delivery orders), nobody wants to waste time looking for that person.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Never worked retail. All this is surprising to me, especially that they're consistently refusing to sell you in-stock items

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Having worked in a closely related industry, fast food, none of this is surprising.

When I worked FF I definitely told people the Ice Cream/Shake machine was broken/off/down for cleaning all the time when it was busy because I couldn't be bothered to deal with it (it's annoying AF to make shakes and it ALWAYS broke your workflow when you were getting to a good speed)

I've also told people we were out of something just because it required me to go to the back because we ran out of what was stocked in front

So yea, if I worked retail and I had to find someone with a key to fulfill a pickup order and I had the ability to simply mark it as out of stock...yea I think you know what action I'd take.

That's what happens when they pay you the bare minimum. Minimum pay, minimum effort.

You just validated so many suspicions that I've had.

[–] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

That is what you call a shit worker. I've worked retail and service and was did go in the back when I said I would. I would go dig for the stupid $2 item because customer satisfaction.

Allow me to introduce you to the wild world of common keys: This Key is Your Key, This Key is My Key

[–] brygphilomena@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Always a good watch. Deviants got a lot of good videos.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Wowww. very interesting/insane watch. Thanks for that!

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They're shitty wafer locks, you can rake them open in 2 seconds with a random key.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lol, so "security through no-one-would-expect-this-stupidity"

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think you could get an additional charge for having "lockpicking" tools in some states, so instead of a minor shoplifting charge, it could get enhanced to a felony.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I always heard it proved intent. Lock picks are not illegal, but if you bring them to a robbery you’ve clearly planned ahead

[–] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Half of those “cameras” are likely fake…
