Does Publix make good sandwiches?

I used to work for Kroger but then I moved onto a job in the airline industry. I know your pain my dude, I was a cashier for 5 years and produce for 1. It was awful.

>>37518348
publix subs are amazing
literally better than subway

I work at a kinda small local chain bagging, stocking and other easy maintenance stuff like that.
Pretty easy would be comfy if it wasn't so hot.
I really don't need my money that much so I usually buy games and weed.
At least I'm not a neet.

Are there buildings taller than two stories in Louisiana?

>>37519898
It's more expensive and there's no self-checkout. They tend not treat their staff like shit so the employees are usually nice, though.

>>37519928
Plenty of tall buildings just no basements.
Why?
>>37519959
So just better employees?
How can that alone make it so much better?

>>37519984
It doesn't reek of consumerism the same way Walmart and Kroger do. It's like they know you're there only because you have to be, so they treat it like a joint venture in getting your groceries. Whereas at Walmart/Kroger it's all about impulse buys and "low" prices, then you can fuck off.
Personally I like Ingles because it's quiet and depressing .

>>37520140
by "they" I mean PubeLicks.

>>37519984
You have to go there. There's just a good atmosphere to it. There's a Walmart neighborhood market across the street from mine which is cheaper and I still go to Publix.

>>37517476
Go back to /hoc/ faget

I did for a year once upon a time. Did not enjoy. Would not recommend.

Used to work in the produce section at one. Not that bad desu.

>>37518365
I know that pain.I just got out of walmart after working retail and shit fastfood for the past 2 years. now i work at uni at a cushy IT student job. alot of fucking down time to do homework and watch netflix. I fucking made it. never gonna work those shit jobs ever again

>>37519852
Until you go north and try Wegmans. Same price range but higher than god-tier products and atmosphere. I'm really disillusioned with my Publix experience now.

>>37519867
Fucking ingrained in my head dude. Whenever I hear it i get PTSD flashbacks about fucking boars head ham

Same music association for me only when i was working at a grocery store Avril Lavigne had just become popular (this was about fifteen years ago). Every time i hear Lavigne songs i smell fresh bread and floor wax. It is an uncomfortable feel.

There is no sandwich better than a pubsub. You know what? I'm gonna go there for dinner

I actually just got called in for an interview to be a dairy/meat stocker at Walmart about an hour ago.

Publix is East Coast, not South. They literally don't go any west than Alabama. Winn-Dixie was Southern but they're going extinct and weren't all that good anyway.

>>37517476
I do. I'm a bag boy and they only give me 15 hours a week though. I'm 24 now. I have to fix my life or I'm going to end up like the Virgin Messiah on YouTube. Fuck that.

Maybe I should leave Florida. This place sucks.

if you are not in school or some other shit that forces you to work in retail. look for a direct professional job or at least some entry level office job at a library. comfy life doing fucking nothing and making more than bumfuck retail cuck shit gay ass wage

I just started doing cashier a month ago. Managed to memorize most of the more conman plu codes. There's a fully retarded bagboy that won't stop singing Offley and loud as fuck. I want to ask him to stop but I don't know if I should or not.

I work at Ralphs.
Its so comfy being the part timer autistic kid.
Everyone is nice to me because they think i have actual autism.
when in reality its just meme autism
I just do the usual shit everyday for 6 hours, bag groceries, clean the floor, bring in carts and then i go home.
Its so comfy and i feel like i have a place in life, no matter how small and insignificant it is, its good to have some structure.
I figured this after i had been living off my NEETbux for a year.
Now on top of my government checks i get paid for my easy as fuck job.

Now i can afford all sorts of cool shit, like drugs and tasty food.
However, if my neetbux were to go away, forcing me to work full time, ill probabaly kill myself.
Working every single day on my feet for 8 hours just to live doesnt appeal to me in the slightest.

any publix anons in the Miami area?

Does Walmart still drug test?

thank god i've never had to work at a shitty low level retailcuck job

I work in the deli at one of the larger Lowes Foods. it fucking sucks, I'm work part time but I'm always working 40hours a week. because its summer all these normies are coming down to the beach and shopping here non stop. I just want to make food and not stop every 30 seconds to server some tourist.

WHAT EXPLAIN

Oregon

I work in a grocery store. It's pretty good, a rich neighbourhood, lots of old people who (unfortunately) wants to talk. Only white people who work in the store. Pay is good as well (for what it is). Only problem is that our latest manager is a fucknugget, but he'll be gone within the year,

>>37526229
I agreed

and people always ask me for the most BS shit. where is the milk free cheese? I'm like bitch where the fuck do you think it is? not at walmart

I work at an HEB in Texas overnight and make $14.50 an hour. I have been playing with boxes for 1 year and 3 months. Started @ $10h/r

Not as bad as wiping asses, but still pretty bad.

>>37526211
how is it? my best friend works there and I want to apply but she hates it a lot. I'm a bagger/cashier and i can easily hide away if it gets too busy at my store with out anyone knowing.

>>37526307
Tomorrow probably. I have an interview at the Walmart across from the Publix by campus. But I might as well still apply to hedge my bets.
Wanna play some OW?

>>37526340
>But I might as well still apply to hedge my bets.

how the hell do you hedge against a job at walmart?

>>37526332
I don't have any issues with it, I'm kept busy the entire shift so it goes by relatively quickly.

Obviously you get bitchy customers because it's coffee but I have thick enough skin

Word of advice: NEVER TAKE A NIGHT STOCKER JOB IF THE STORE IS OPEN 24 HOURS. Because of the high volume needed to justify it they will put you on hard quotas that will require you work hard all the time, and STILL EXPECT YOU TO STOP FOR CUSTOMERS no matter how few there are. A non-24 hour store means that it's probably lower volume (making work go from non-stop stress to comfy) and you won't have to deal with customers

>>37526229
It might be only three days a week

>>37526321
Kroger started me at $8 and made me work 40 hours a week no benefits (being in a union just meant I would earn 25 cents less every hour). And yes, this related to the response to >>37526244

What a bunch of fucking losers

Why didn't you learn marketable skills

>>37526379
Yeah but I'm a bit hyped cause I don't do jack shit all day and I might as well be making cash instead. Gonna do this till next semester starts then I'm gonna apply at Miller's Alehouse where my roommate works.

>>37526389
I don't need marketable skills, I make more money than 90% of our customers doing simple work while hanging out with my friends.

>>37526395
Yeah I'm almost positive we're friends on there.

>>37526412
The reason your life isn't better is because your most marketable skill is something you can train a downie to do

>>37517476
Man I literally just quit my job at the Publix deli.

Fuck that place and fuck that company.

>>37526441

You should save that comment and look back on it in ten years.

My guess is you'll have a few regrets.

>>37526504
my biggest regret was finding out I had a place to express my autism

>>37526471
>Just because everyone around you is a loser doesn't make you less of one
pretty sure that being a loser is a relative term, so in fact I'm less of a loser if everyone else is worse off than me, retard.

Aldi pays a lot for an entry level job, but you have to bust your ass off compared to other grocery chains. They understaff every store (in order to save money) and have you do 2-3x as much work as a normal retailcuck.

>>37530313
Aldi pays more than my current job but I won't apply because I'd be forced to interact with customers whereas as my current job there is zero interaction with customers and only occasional interaction with co-workers or supervisors/managers who are all robots like me too.
