It's a decent job (I guess) but I wouldn't recommend staying there for long time. Hours are usually terrible and a shift can last like 11-12 hours if working full - time. If you really have to work there ask manager if it's possible to work ~20-30 hours a week. Be on time for interview, ask some questions (even if you don't care that much about that store) and 99.99% that they will hire you.

Depending on which grocery store you work at, you can make good money if you move up. I work at a Hyvee in Minnesota and the average salary for a department manager is around $60k. If you’re valuable to them, they’ll continue to pay you more.

@@youtubeshadowbannedme Add keywords that retail likes to hear in your application. If you have never worked in retail, literally watch few videos on yt "day in life of retail worker" or something like that and you have experience. Retail is basically same shit everywhere. Stocking boxes, placing labels on boxes, cleaning your aisle, giving change to customer, inspecting goods that came with new delivery. And repeating this thing like a billion times per day. I would recommend practicing something on the side while you work in retail. There are plenty of online resources nowadays. Trust me, you don't want to be stuck in some store for multiple years.

Yes that happens at pretty much all grocery stores. They fired two people that I know of at Sprouts for being drunk on the job. They fired this random dude I never spoke with who I know of because he approached me in the parking lot and wanted to know if I was interested in buying any pain killers off of him. I said no and I told him not to talk so loud when selling that because he had a super loud voice like he was shouting kinda. Well everyone needs food even the drug addicts.

there is no communication between managers and the lower employees. each shift will do different things and not communicate with the others... then night shift usually fucks everything up if they choose to do anything at all. your day will consist (if your a grocery clerk) unloading trucks of pallets, breaking down those pallets onto "U-Boats" mostly store brand stuff atleast my store you will only fill water isle, paper isle and some goya. you will work the freezer (fucking sucks) and will do dairy also. basically the grocery clerk is the worker bee of the store you will work everything when things needs to be done milk, eggs, freezer, store brand goods , water, paper towels/ napkins. store brand soda etc.. you then will load trucks with empty pallets and plastic . you will be showing customers where items are even if its not your designated zone. you will be asked to check the back for something even when you know its not back there or you have nothing back there for the sole purpose of customer service . you will break down boxes and put them in the bale , after the bale gets filled to a certain level you will take wires and create a bale brick to put onto the truck. you will do this every day. same shit everyday. you will eat chicken that comes from the deli or a sandwhich from the deli and some candy maybe or cookies as a snack everyday unless you pack your own lunch. if you work 8 hours you get a half hour lunch you must clock out for. anything below 8 hours you get a 15 min break that you dont need to clock out for. the job fucking sucks and you do more then what your asked to do and are payed for. Its a good first job for highschool kids and maybe someone whos been a fuck up most of their teens / young adult hood and just needs a job to get a start into the workforce. as for a career i couldnt imagine doing this shit day in and day out. schedules are never the same unless youve worked there for a few years and are part of the union. thats the other thing. the guys thats been there 10 years plus and are in the union will never show up and when they do they are lazy, they know they will get a paycheck either way. Its an hourly job so my advice is to work but dont work hard and dont be lazy , just go at a chill pace, take your time breaking down the boxes, take your time going to the bale, take your time putting the boxes in the bale. if you over work yourself they will expect you to work like that all the time.

I worked at a grocery store and I went for 40 hrs a week to 8 hrs a week. I think it is because they found out i go to a psychiatrist. I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia at 28 and i am on a once monthly shot. I worked at this grocery store when i was 26 and had no problems. I was not on the right medication at the grocery store job and other jobs. I was basically on resperdal a sedating medicine. Sedating tranquilizers are different then non sedating tranquilizers. Eventually you will become to sedated with the tranquilizers and they will lower your medication too much then you will have a relapse. That is why it is important to get on a non sedating medicine if you decide to go back to work.

Hes so right about going in and not being a dick just be yourself and engage and smile alot and ask about the store and what they like about working there and what things do they partake in with the employees and all that good stuff. Ask about the position you're interested in aswell, for example if becoming a self checkout host ask how do i go about if a customer doesnt scan all their items what would i say in that scenario? So yeah. I love grocery store jobs worked for albertsons and sprouts so far. I was doing medical coding working from home and it was easy but so boring and not for me. The pay was 11 an hour and sprouts was 16 an hour. Hope this helps, anyone want to give some pointers and comment about their experiences go head ! love to hear. :)

I am much happier working in warehouses than grocery stores. I worked at a Sprouts for six weeks and the job sucked. Store manager really unapproachable, department manager was a micromanager, and my assistant department manager was quite unpleasant towards me. Got way too little hours. I've had overtime in multiple warehouses that pay the same or more per hour than what Sprouts paid me. I kept my mouth shut about what I really thought of those three managers when I worked there. Assistant store manager was a super nice guy. I have it so much better in warehouses. No pressure from any random person walking in the building wanting to buy stuff or talk to me.

My neck of the woods I used to parcel pick-up at GIANT in my neck of the woods. It was my first job after I graduating from high school. But from my experience, it was a shitty job - making me do several tests two or three people could do at once, let alone keeping up with the carts, I worked my ass off their minimum wages sucked ass and they never lived up to their promises in raising my pay rate. Even my boss got under my skin and accusing me of patronizing him, while I was trying to be nice. I'm thinking to myself, "wtf?" I quit that job six months later. Overall, to hell with that job, I'm glad I'm out of their. Nowadays, I have a job working at local Middle school, in the food nutrition department. It's hard work but I love it. And the pays worth it too and been working there since 2016 😎

It's a decent job (I guess) but I wouldn't recommend staying there for long time. Hours are usually terrible and a shift can last like 11-12 hours if working full - time. If you really have to work there ask manager if it's possible to work ~20-30 hours a week. Be on time for interview, ask some questions (even if you don't care that much about that store) and 99.99% that they will hire you.
Depending on which grocery store you work at, you can make good money if you move up. I work at a Hyvee in Minnesota and the average salary for a department manager is around $60k. If you’re valuable to them, they’ll continue to pay you more.
I've never been accepted to an interview for grocery stores
@@youtubeshadowbannedme Add keywords that retail likes to hear in your application. If you have never worked in retail, literally watch few videos on yt "day in life of retail worker" or something like that and you have experience. Retail is basically same shit everywhere. Stocking boxes, placing labels on boxes, cleaning your aisle, giving change to customer, inspecting goods that came with new delivery. And repeating this thing like a billion times per day. I would recommend practicing something on the side while you work in retail. There are plenty of online resources nowadays. Trust me, you don't want to be stuck in some store for multiple years.
@@---xv3zf I've volunteered for a NGO at one of their retail places so I technically have relevant experience but never got a job in that industry
@@youtubeshadowbannedme Maybe that particular store you applied has just finished recruiting new people and at the moment they aren''t looking for new ones. Try a different store, retail is constantly hiring. Try zara, h&m, home depo, other nearby retail stores. Go in a store in person and ask someone there if they are hiring or not. You don't need any experience to work this kinda job. Just present yourself (or bullshit something that looks presentable and believable) and they will hire you.
Oh god, this is exactly what I needed before my shift. Thank you for 100% accurately describing a basic grocery job. :)
Looks like a great guy
Oh boy, you are too funny! I love your advice and and you are so hysterical! I have a grocery store interview in a day and you made me feel a whole lot better. Thank you!
Can the information from this video also be used to apply for a job as a grocery/produce packer in a hotel?
Grocery store workers r underratedly tough lmao we get payed the bare minimum to do the most boring shit for eight hours at a time. Like don’t get it twisted we will throw hands on the job
THIS. Like the amount of people who think they can’t treat me like shit on the job because they’re the costumer and I’m a teenager. Like babe I’m getting paid 13 dollars an hour I really don’t have time or energy for your shit

Yeah, I wanna know about that story too!
Idiot
@@12012channelin the vid he said 1
Oh man now I know what to do when I work at a grocery store
I watched this two weeks ago, applied at 2 different stores and got accepted at the second one. Frankly, this video helped me more than the ones that promise to tell you the "right" answers for an interview question
Yes that happens at pretty much all grocery stores. They fired two people that I know of at Sprouts for being drunk on the job. They fired this random dude I never spoke with who I know of because he approached me in the parking lot and wanted to know if I was interested in buying any pain killers off of him. I said no and I told him not to talk so loud when selling that because he had a super loud voice like he was shouting kinda. Well everyone needs food even the drug addicts.
U should be fired for drinking duh 🙄
@@LOVERSANDLIES In my opinion, if your on the influence and can’t do your job, yeah you should definitely be fired. But if you can still function and do your job properly, sure but just don’t get caught with your pants down.
I loved this! You are straight up and explain what life is really about. Keep it up and post more!!!
there is no communication between managers and the lower employees. each shift will do different things and not communicate with the others... then night shift usually fucks everything up if they choose to do anything at all. your day will consist (if your a grocery clerk) unloading trucks of pallets, breaking down those pallets onto "U-Boats" mostly store brand stuff atleast my store you will only fill water isle, paper isle and some goya. you will work the freezer (fucking sucks) and will do dairy also. basically the grocery clerk is the worker bee of the store you will work everything when things needs to be done milk, eggs, freezer, store brand goods , water, paper towels/ napkins. store brand soda etc.. you then will load trucks with empty pallets and plastic . you will be showing customers where items are even if its not your designated zone. you will be asked to check the back for something even when you know its not back there or you have nothing back there for the sole purpose of customer service . you will break down boxes and put them in the bale , after the bale gets filled to a certain level you will take wires and create a bale brick to put onto the truck. you will do this every day. same shit everyday. you will eat chicken that comes from the deli or a sandwhich from the deli and some candy maybe or cookies as a snack everyday unless you pack your own lunch. if you work 8 hours you get a half hour lunch you must clock out for. anything below 8 hours you get a 15 min break that you dont need to clock out for. the job fucking sucks and you do more then what your asked to do and are payed for. Its a good first job for highschool kids and maybe someone whos been a fuck up most of their teens / young adult hood and just needs a job to get a start into the workforce. as for a career i couldnt imagine doing this shit day in and day out. schedules are never the same unless youve worked there for a few years and are part of the union. thats the other thing. the guys thats been there 10 years plus and are in the union will never show up and when they do they are lazy, they know they will get a paycheck either way. Its an hourly job so my advice is to work but dont work hard and dont be lazy , just go at a chill pace, take your time breaking down the boxes, take your time going to the bale, take your time putting the boxes in the bale. if you over work yourself they will expect you to work like that all the time.
Completely agree with what you said. 8 hours of dang hard work for just half an hour break! It’s not easy. And sometimes the customers are so dumb.
I've been doing research for a big grocery store related documentary I'm working on and this video came up and I was like "what the heck I'll watch it" and this was actually really funny! I love your style of telling stories and jokes! Definitely earned my subscription lol
I came here looking for genuine advice and mate you’re HILARIOUS, so surprised you only have 5k subs! I had to sub, keep it up man👏🏽
Jim seems awesome. Grocery stores are a lot like other workplaces. Annoying customers, incompetent managers and unethical intimate workplace relations.
Lmao do more story times! Also i work at sprouts too but i work in the bakery .. love the people there yo! I think they’re the best. Just management is a little shady sometimes bc our store manager is kinda moody so when he’s stressed he stresses everyone out
I work in 2 different grocery stores and this is spot on. You had me rolling, you have a new subscriber dude.
Can we get a sequel in here? Thinking about working at a Safeway this summer, I swear half the videos are like “it’s pretty great!” and the other half seem to think it’s the worst thing I’ll ever experience. Your humor and editing is great btw keep it up my dude!
If you do work at Safeway don’t become a courtesy clerk you will be a cleaning person from the bathroom -wet spills right along w/bagging -Find a job there you are good at /enjoy and want to come to work each day/night (I used to work at one for 18 years but quit when a supervisor let me know I wouldn’t be anything but a bagger in the long run) Don’t let another person say that to you You do what you’re capable of
Find tasks to keep your sanity otherwise you will be going crazy and a best friend there just to have somebody to hang out w/you
I’m not saying you can’t work there but should let you know ahead of time that Safeway is now a part of Albertsons and a lot of the people don’t really enjoy working for them (As their own employees I mean) It has really changed since I left in September of 2018 but the one good thing is that you can now wear jeans (black blue and tan) That went into effect 2017 as part of the dress code
This was far more entertaining than I thought it would be, thanks
i work at giant eagle in curbside so i am a personal shopper and i really like it so far! we move around alot but some days can be slow but it pays good enough and i get really good hours. my manager is amazing, better than our previous department manager, she basically didn't do anything.
This guy's a great story teller
Very informative. I’ll be sure to look out for part 2
Epic video. I'm suppose to work at a store for a practical assignment for college. But imma just watch these and write it down🤣
The ending was absolutely hilarious 😂
bro thnk you so much, Im actually going to work tomorrow for the first time n this helps lol Also, good editing. Love from Costa Rica
i lokey want to work as a cashier because im only 14 and im waiting till i reach fifteen so i could like get money to save for college because my parents aren't supporting my decision on going to college because they say its a waste of tine but im really passionate about it and if i gotta work to get the money myself then so be it👏✌👍
Your parents say it’s a waste of time? Omg throw them away
@@platonichain6937 not even recycle his parents, just outright put them in the garbage
They wont hire you unless your 16 or up due to child labor laws

You got yourself a new subscriber. You are hilarious!
I’m lmao! You are tooo funny! Please keep posting this stuff
This is hilarious and well done. How do u not have many views
I found what you said to be exactly true. I heard an anouncement while shopping at the store asking for help. I had one interview, and they offered me a job. Now, i am looking forward to running a checkout stand. Also, i will be working in produce. Its going to get me out from behind my desk and working with the public.
this editing is well done
😂😂 Great video. Absolutely love it
alrighty then! Wish me luck tryin' to get a job in a grocery store!
I’ll tell you as someone who’s been at a grocery store for 11 months now there are 2 types of co workers those who are chill(the cool ones) and those who treat their job like it’s game 7 of the NBA finals
I always used to tell those ones to chill out. We don't work at NASA over here... It's just groceries.

Been working in retail close to 30 years. 18 in meat dpt currently training for lead position in grocery.
I'm thinking of working at a Safeway, this vid gave me some insight lol, good vid dude, good vid
If you do find a job that you enjoy and want to come to work each day/night tasks to keep your own sanity intact and a best friend to hang out with there (Courtesy Clerk is the worst cause all you’re doing is cleaning besides the bagging of the groceries/carry outs /carts I did that job for 18 years so I know what I’m saying) Good luck

Ur channels gonna get big someday if u keep this quality up

This pretty much sums it up

Store 409 baby
Love the content 👌🏾 😌
I worked at a grocery store and I went for 40 hrs a week to 8 hrs a week. I think it is because they found out i go to a psychiatrist. I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia at 28 and i am on a once monthly shot. I worked at this grocery store when i was 26 and had no problems. I was not on the right medication at the grocery store job and other jobs. I was basically on resperdal a sedating medicine. Sedating tranquilizers are different then non sedating tranquilizers. Eventually you will become to sedated with the tranquilizers and they will lower your medication too much then you will have a relapse. That is why it is important to get on a non sedating medicine if you decide to go back to work.
U have to ask for more hours
My God man your so damn funny this is what it looks like in the microwave in the break room getting everything angel I respect that
This is gold
I am currently working at a grocery store and might go to warehouse force but it’s an okay job ,do not think your gonna be there forever ,just say temporary,I am working while going to school and excited to one day leave ,the people that I work with are rude ,i am great with the people who has been working there forever and the teens but not the people who has been there for a while,i am just racking my hours
Got hired on the spot for the cashier position for sprouts, so now I'm here to prepare myself lmao

Gonna be my first day, and first time working at a job, i'll be working at a grocery store/ Home depo sort of place called (Rona)
how was it?
@@anastafford it was pretty good, it was more like volunteer work actually. Now i have a really good looking Resume now : )
as a worker in the grocery store, I have advice to say to anyone who considers to apply for this job, do your job, sure, you can help your co-worker, but in a way that does not become their habit to exploit you every single time - be nice and try to be friends with them, but set from the start that you are not easy to exploit never ever argue with customers, and don't chit-chat with them more than necessary, you can smile, and you can be friendly but not to the point standing in the middle of the store and talking about this or that, your boss would mark that in their notebook, be careful with customer money and double-check on the computer what items you scanned, sometimes you might double scan the same item, and then you will get angry customer once u print the bill, that is all
I started working at Aldi 3 days ago. I worked fast food for 10 years.. I think I prefer fast food.

How are the surveillance cameras at sprouts? Do they have someone watching at all times?
Instant classic
I work for a super market that has gone all online training. The new staff that have done the online training seem to think they know more then the staff that have worked in the super market for years. We older staff can see all the mistakes but management save money and never really know what is happening on the floor. In person training is so much better.
Anyone who gets a job at a grocery store I would recommend working for the following departments. Dairy, frozen, grocery, or produce.
Grocery is best
@@Sarah_Kinz hey!, what does the grocery department consist of?
Dairy and frozen is a part of the grocery department
@@JoseGonzalez-tk3cn pretty much opening boxes and putting cans of beans and shit on the shelves
I'm sure that it totally depends on where you work. I despise being a produce manager in a store that's understaffed; limited to 39 hours and there are days every week where I clock out and volunteer time just to keep up. Their answer, work faster.
Heres a tip for retail just do what meets the quota dont over work cause in retail 90% of your coworkers are lazy and will take advantage of you working hard which means more hours no raise and you’re expected to do everyones slack. Just do the minimum you are required trust me you dont want to be a slave for others
I work part time at Trader Joes. There are good aspects - discounts, most of the customers are very nice and some are very fun to interact with, most of the co-workers are really good people. As far as bad aspects - notice that I used the word “most” when referring to the good parts above. It’s a job.
Hes so right about going in and not being a dick just be yourself and engage and smile alot and ask about the store and what they like about working there and what things do they partake in with the employees and all that good stuff. Ask about the position you're interested in aswell, for example if becoming a self checkout host ask how do i go about if a customer doesnt scan all their items what would i say in that scenario? So yeah. I love grocery store jobs worked for albertsons and sprouts so far. I was doing medical coding working from home and it was easy but so boring and not for me. The pay was 11 an hour and sprouts was 16 an hour. Hope this helps, anyone want to give some pointers and comment about their experiences go head ! love to hear. :)
I just applied four weeks ago for night stock and I go for second interview tommorow wish me luck hope all goes good

I also work at Sprouts, I’m tired of how they treat us
I do too. You are NOT alone! Horrific company full of liars and manipulators. I've been there 3 years now and will be retiring in six months. Can't wait. So sick of the crap I see going on daily...
I am much happier working in warehouses than grocery stores. I worked at a Sprouts for six weeks and the job sucked. Store manager really unapproachable, department manager was a micromanager, and my assistant department manager was quite unpleasant towards me. Got way too little hours. I've had overtime in multiple warehouses that pay the same or more per hour than what Sprouts paid me. I kept my mouth shut about what I really thought of those three managers when I worked there. Assistant store manager was a super nice guy. I have it so much better in warehouses. No pressure from any random person walking in the building wanting to buy stuff or talk to me.
My neck of the woods I used to parcel pick-up at GIANT in my neck of the woods. It was my first job after I graduating from high school. But from my experience, it was a shitty job - making me do several tests two or three people could do at once, let alone keeping up with the carts, I worked my ass off their minimum wages sucked ass and they never lived up to their promises in raising my pay rate. Even my boss got under my skin and accusing me of patronizing him, while I was trying to be nice. I'm thinking to myself, "wtf?" I quit that job six months later. Overall, to hell with that job, I'm glad I'm out of their. Nowadays, I have a job working at local Middle school, in the food nutrition department. It's hard work but I love it. And the pays worth it too and been working there since 2016 😎
