So You Want Free Stuff? A Guide to Walmart+ for Employees (Because Who Needs Money Anyway?)
Let's face it, working at Walmart is an adventure. You meet interesting people (by interesting, we mean everyone from coupon enthusiasts to those who've achieved a personal best for items scanned in a minute). You get exercise (chasing rogue shopping carts is basically cardio, right?). But let's be honest, the paycheck might not exactly be setting the yacht club on fire.
Fear not, my underpaid friend! Because Walmart, in its infinite wisdom (and possibly a desire to keep you from joining the local bandit club), offers Walmart+ to its employees for free (well, almost free. There's a chance you'll have to watch a training video or two, but hey, who doesn't love a good instructional dance number?).
Here's your handbook to snag that sweet, sweet Walmart+ membership and finally afford those deliveries of questionable quality bulk paper towels you've been eyeing.
Signing Up: Easier Than Avoiding Small Talk With Karen in Aisle 3
First things first, forget trying this on your phone. You need to be on a designated work computer (basically any computer that doesn't have a questionable game of Minesweeper pre-loaded). Now, here comes the slightly tricky part: finding the enrollment link. Let's be real, Walmart's internal systems can be a labyrinth designed by a particularly sadistic hamster. But fear not, persistent associate! Ask around (avoid Larry from electronics, he'll get lost in a tangent about the merits of various phone cases).
Pro Tip: If all else fails, bribe someone with a Snickers (because let's face it, Snickers are the real currency of Walmart).
The Training Trials: More Entertaining Than You Think (Probably)
Ah, yes, the training videos. You might be thinking, "Ugh, more work stuff?" But hold your horses (or should we say, zebra-striped laundry baskets)! These training videos are legendary for being, well, something. Think motivational speeches delivered by squirrels and dramatic reenactments of proper grocery bag etiquette. It's basically reality TV gold.
Underline the important part: You actually have to watch these videos (sorry, fast-forwarding is a no-go). But hey, at least you're getting paid to be entertained, right?
The Victory Lap: Free Stuff Awaits!
Once you've conquered the training videos, you're in! Just enter your email address, set a password that isn't "password123" (seriously, people!), and brace yourself for the avalanche of savings (or at least the ability to get that giant bag of gummy bears delivered straight to your door).
Remember: There might be a temporary hold on some account features until Walmart verifies your employment status. But fret not, patience is a virtue (and who knows, you might use the wait to perfect your customer service smile).
So there you have it! With a little perseverance and a tolerance for instructional squirrel dance parties, you'll be a Walmart+ pro in no time. Now get out there and start stocking up on those bulk paper towels (because who doesn't need a lifetime supply?).
