Appreciate the feedback 👍

Ya it’s quiet lol no one wants to work there

Bro how do you dress working in the freezer? I mainly just don’t want my fingers frozen like shit that’s my only concern

@@bigbagyoo 2 pairs of sweatpants, a pair of socks, a t shirt, long sleeve shirt and a hoodie, a beanie and a pair of gloves. The key is to stay in there as much as possible and keep moving, the more you come out to warm up, the worse it’ll get when you go back in there

I have 3 weeks under my belt right now I’m currently running a 85 to 90 percent.. average is like 60 so I’m doing okay but it’s weird I wear 1 pear or gloves and I don’t really feel anything and the cold isn’t bothering me is that bad, must mean I have got numb hands now 😂

That’s actually so cool. Do you think your memory is a gift or a curse

Appreciate it

How u dealing with the cold , I'm bout to start

@JOE I'd recommend wool socks. But as long as you are moving at a decent speed you won't feel that cold. I even sweat in there if I go too fast.

​@@xqeze Fax

Yeah, the cold is kinda nice now that I'm used to it.

@@xqeze are you full time in there now? And where is this if you don't mind

@@xqeze what’s cold ?

I started in produce and combo for like a year and transferred to the freezer bc of the dayshift they had, been selecting in freezer for over a 1 year now, I've always been full time in HEB, what about you?

​@@jfros9794the warehouse is cold it's -10 in there

Appreciate it

I’ve worked for all three of those companies also 😭

@@xqeze would compare to pepsi but in freezer n different products???

Hey if u see this which warehouse of those three did u like I worked for all 3 too and Martin browser def... The worse one

@@MrDta416Martin Brower fired me during orientation

We say the check digit to confirm we grabbed what it said. Saying the quantity would be too redundant. Saying the quantity isn't going to change how much I grabbed.

@@xqeze fair enough. the way mine works is "64-7" "92" "pick one" "1". I get what your sayin though. Definitely less talking to just say the check digit

Yeah when I worked freezer at Walmart DC we said check digit and number they wanted.

I have interview for this posistion. I am excited af. Hopefully the suits at KeHe are good and I can stay warm. But I only have to pull 125 cases to meet my incentive pay. Base pay is $18/hr then its $21 when you meet productivity. (which is 135 dry, 125 frozen) Freezer gets extra $1.50/hr so $22.50 at 100%? Hopefully the incentives get higher.

@@liquidsunshine697it’s a huge ass DC that 125 cases an hour ain’t all that easy ., maybe I was handling the stickers a lot or not walking the jack ., but kehe dry 35 aisles bro ..

Yeah you probably don't have to pull as many boxes if you're scanning.

Im the king in the box running a 150 2000 are more a night the name of the game is touch the case once and go

It is tough if you're not young or fit. But anyone can do it as long as you are mentally fit. Freezer is definitely chill. But I'd rather be in produce. Produce is on the night shift, and I like being able to do things after work.

@@xqeze I am young and fit. 18 almost 19 and i lift daily. I’m gonna be doing day shifts starting at 9

@@brka22 how you like it?

@@brka22 hows it going ?

its easy as hell bro once u get the hang of it the moneys been great@@Barbiehallway

Heck yeah, good luck!

How selecting going for you ??

@@MYBtinttv it’s going good! I started in March and at first it was stressful for like 2 months but after a while I’ve gotten used to it and have little to no issues with my stacking. It can be a little frustrating at times depending on the boxes but it’s not as bad as when I first started, pay is great as well

@@Lucifer___- insensitive were harder to get when we had them. They got rid of insensitive pay and just raised our base pay.

@@xqeze dang. That sucks. Or is a good thing if it’s a substantial raise

@Lucifer___- it's good sorta. They never adjusted incentive since 14 hr was base pay. So if you were making 17 to 20 base pay you wouldn't make incentive anyway because standards were so high. They raised pay to 27 and still kept incentive like base pay was 14. So only maybe one person was make any incentive anyway. If they adjusted incentive with pay it would be nice but won't ever do that here.

Whatever doesn't make you feel bloaded or taking a crap. There's nothing worse than pulling boxes with the bubblies. Lol. I drink coffee in the morning and eat something high in protein at lunch. Some people eat donuts for breakfast. I've enjoyed seen someone eat cake for lunch everyday. I eat bigger dinners than I do breakfast or lunch. If you eat too much you will slow down and feel sluggish. But you need something to give you energy. Pre workout mixes or shakes are pretty common breakfasts.

Whatever you do don’t eat nothing heavy cuz all this moving,bending and twisting will have you asking supervisor for 10 minute warm up to go shit. Me I drink a monster eat m&ms,skittles and inhale a small piece of marijuana 🤧

@@SUNSHINESTATE904that’s no better bro … I bet yo immune system and energy 2hrs after that energy drink is shitttt

@@raiderrick99 i bet you don’t know what you talking about. I only drink a monster when I first wake up to get my ass up 2 hours later I’m still good cause I don’t run while I’m selecting I found my own pace to keep my numbers at 109-115% at Publix and still be up when I get off work that’s just me.

​@@SUNSHINESTATE904 diabetes is your future

Lol. Don't you love when you accidentally say it when you miss hear someone?

Ya that's the finished wrap before it heads to the store. I can't say what warehouse but you may see some clues on a few of the boxes. I'm glad to have helped.

I wear 2 pairs in freezer when pulling and 3 when on a lift.

No one does at first. It will come. Ask questions, watch others and try different strategies until you find what works for you.

I'm talking to my headset. It tells me where to grab a box and how many to grab. It will say 435 pick 1. Which means go to slot number 435 and grab 1 box. I respond with the number on the slot that is the check digit. Check digit is a two digit number to verify that you grabbed from the slot with the slot number the headset told me to grab from. Each slot will have 7 numbers on it. The first two are the aisle numbers, the next three are the slot number, and the last two are the confirmation number/check digit.

Most places allow bluetooth speakers but not earbuds. However, alot of places don't enforce the no earbud rule. I'm talking to a automated voice command system called talkman. It's a robot voice that tells me what to grab and where and tells me where to put it. I respond with commands and prompts so that it knows I did what it told me to do.

@@xqeze what about the quantity because sometime you grab 2 boxes

I try to do arrows up. In perishable this is not an issue for the most part. But in meat I know there is a four tie box that has a open top. If i stack on it then the product would smash and and my load would lean. But that is rare in perishable. However in freezer the boxes are so irregular it becomes impossible to make level surfaces to stack on without stacking on their side. As well there are several boxes that are stronger when stacked upside down. I recently started stacking as stated on box to keep people happy. But it results in basically a lot of column stacking that is unstable. Either suppliers need to have more standardized box sizes or sturdier boxes that it doesn't matter the side they are on. The only boxes that actually make sense to stack horribly for the sake of keeping arrows up is our frozen cake boxes. No body wants a cake with messed up frosting. I'm definitely on the fence with this issue and feel it is more a supplier and box manufacture issue than it is a order selector issue.

It depends on the section. But freezer my average is about 250 cph but I can do alot better than that if i need to make up time. 250 cph is close to company standards 300cph in produce. But they don't measure In cph, it's based on time. Each case has a specific time given to grab it. I make time by grabbing it faster.

Instinct. Watch my how to stack and be fast video. It explains alot.

It will help you lose weight at first and its a goodwork out. But if you increase your food intake to compensate for the extra energy you use, then you will not. Most people who do this become very fit. There are a couple that will just have very strong arms and legs with a big belly because they eat too much. I eat too much to maintain energy, but I gain almost 10 lbs on my days off because I don't slow down my eating when I don't need it. I'm not fat but you definitely can't see my abs. Most places will let you have a bluetooth speaker. Alot of folks will also have airbuds but you are required to have 1 ear open. However, that rule is rarely enforced. There are some places that don't allow any music because it can distract from hearing people driving by you and could cause you to get run over.

Focus on learning to build not on the speed. Speed will come when stacking boxes becomes instinct. Look through the comments in my videos there are many more tips in there. You must unlearn, what you have learned. Try not. Do or do not. There is no try.

No, it's just 2. Lol, yeah. Good pullers who have done this for a few years would probably be able to compete against real athletes. The people I work with are the hardest workers you can imagine. Even our lazy people are still very hard workers compared to normal people. We do this at this pace 8 to 15 hours a day. The more extreme of us can do this multiple days without sleep. I've seen some pull boxes for 48 hours straight. I've only made it 18 hours followed by 3 hours of sleep, then 18 more hours. I hit 100 hours that week.

Wasn’t for us modern day slavers y’all wouldn’t eat.

Appreciate it

Not for everyone. You flippin burgers now?

Yes. But they don't do it at my warehouse anyway unless you get hurt. When I was hired they did a mouth swab test. It's only accurate if I had drank or smoked that day. But when I got hurt, they did a urine test. I don't drink or smoke so I was good. But many folks have to walk off their injuries or take vacation.

Lol we be high ass hell running 160 at in our freezer.....Just 1 rule "DONT GET HURT"

If you're talking percentage, then that would be meaningless unless we worked in the same warehouse. Standards are different everywhere. I pull an average of 250 to 270 cph in freezer. I was probably only pulling 250 cph in this video. Which comes to about 100% in my warehouse. If you want to walk you just need to be more efficient. Set the box and keep moving. If you fumble around with boxes in the upper slots, then get good with the case hook. To practice, i used to carry the case hook in one hand throughout an entire order. It can save you a lot of time if you can use it and still grab multiple boxes without going to put it back on your jack every time. Jack placement is huge too. Making sure your pallets are in the best position to eliminate unnecessary movement. I also am calling off boxes ahead of me so I already know where to go. All the little things add up.

Sometimes. It depends on what you're stacking. Freezer boxes are light a stiff usually and in my freezer, there are few matching sizes. It is faster to column stack and you can get away with it in freezer. But I don't recommend column stacking in meat because the boxes are heavy and soft. But column stacking is the fastest way if you can get away with it without spilling or slowing down to keep it from spilling.

Slow is fast. Take your time learn how to stack first then focus on shaving time without running. Watch and learn from other pullers and your trainer. Each person has a strategy, pick and choose what's best for you.

Hows does it feel? I start freezer as well in the walmart dc and i start at $37

Our maintenance team custom makes them. They just take a steal rod then bend and smash the tip. They then weld on a tube at the top for a handle. Ill post a picture of one on the discord. I thought about trying to make some to sell. Because they are hand made each one is a little different and its hard to find one with a good weight and balance so once you have one you don't loose it. We call them case hooks.

btdisplaygroup.com/case-pick-hook-carton-of-6-28-22-each/ I found a similar style to what we use but you have to buy 6 of them and kinda pricy

It’s a pick stick

@williamthompson7741 Never heard pick stick before but we call it a case hook in America

There's a lady robot in my headset telling me what to grab and how many. I reply with the check digit of the slot and confirm that I grabbed the cases.

I wear thermal leggings, jeans, long sleeve t shirt, wool socks, carhart hoodie, beanie, cold weather suspender coveralls, 2 pairs of gloves, and cat boots. You don't want to be too warm though because once you start moving it can get a little hot. I try to sweat cause that will make you feel colder when you come back from break.

I'm not giving out the name until I get approval. But it's probably one of the largest grocery chains. If you want to do this work look for order selector jobs or order picker with the highest pay. I hear walmart incentive pay is very good but they don't have union. Union can provide job security but sometimes it can screw you. Look around and ask questions.

@@xqeze I understand and okay thank you

You get a brown star 🌟

I've pissed uphill in snow and against the wind... np

I made you a video that I hope helps it will be uploaded in a few hours. If you have questions after post a message on the discord and someone should answer it.

Nobody’s a b for trying

Tall enough lol. What are you getting at? 👀

@@xqeze I’m 5’8 and not sure if reaching things is going to be an issue.

@ethanbaker5987 I'm 5' 7" stuff in the back on top slot will be difficult. Either jump or get good with the case hook. I think the case hook is faster after you master it. If you have alot of upper slots you will get wore out quickly if you're jumping every couple slots. If pallet doesn't have alot you can slide out one corner, grab your case and push it back in.

@@xqeze ok thanks boss

I'll touch my cases as much as I want 😌

It's freezer I can stack much worse than that. It doesn't really matter in freezer. Everything is very light and the boxes are stiff.

Who said you had to?

I enjoy these type videos but your shit just ass mute your call outs

Sounding like R2-D2

Must be your 1st day

@zipsog-5325 Yep, and it must be your time of the month.
