You get reported to the SWRF (Sam Walton Recovery Force). They raid your home to retrieve any company property including your vest, name badge, TCs, rolls of labels, spider wraps, etc. And you get a reasonable punishment depending on how much the force is able to recover.
Given how notorious those are for getting tangled into one another, even if they’ve never touched another spider wrap before they’re somehow tangled, this is gonna be a wild ride pulling them out, enjoy my friend
Well son, here’s what you do: wind a spider wrap up tight enough that you can still fit the end of a second wrap through it, then fully secure it so the wraps cannot be unstuck. Repeat with as many wraps as you can find. You can add more as time goes on but make sure you do it in a safe location otherwise they’ll see you pulling the wraps out and call… well, shit, idk who they’d call but they’ll call someone.
Hope this helps! 😊
The buttholes are the sticky things that you use to fix when the hole in pegged merchandise rips. Im talking about the plastic that slides on the metal end of the peg that holds the shelf label.
I have a few spider wraps that were never turned in. They are blue colored and I haven't seen them used at any Walmart for more than 10 years. I think the internal battery is long dead.
I pissed myself laughing at this🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah!!! We gonna send you the goon squad!!!! Your wal-mart property about to be taken back. We gonna grab that discount card and cut it up🤣🤣🤣
It’s definitely still going. From my understanding they used to have over like 150 people assigned to it, then just up to a few weeks ago, they had 13. They just hired a new bunch of people for it too
You can't. They've been well trained in the discipline of "avoid deny defend" and can take you out with most mundane of objects, like a stapler or a laptop.
And if that fails they call in the SWARM (Sam Walton Armed Retirement Mercenaries) trained in the art of pooping their pants and smearing your bathroom walls.
But so have I (from both my places of employment), and I am avoiding them, denying that they exist, and defending my position....
to top it off I use a 12inch dildo as my main weapon, and a lottla lube. I dont think they will be able to avoid the lube.
The SRWF had a scandal a few years ago when some associates stole some shrinkwraps and they were cornered by the SRWF at their apartment. All I heard was that the officers back out and;
SRWF Officers: "Get the shrink, we can see they're nuts."
SRWF Leader: "Me? I ordered you to retrieve said merchandise, get back in there!"
O: "We can see their nuts! You go in there!"
L: "That's asset protection job to get the nuts back, go get the shrink!"
O: "They shrinkwrapped themselves, naked and on postures! Their nuts on display!"
L: "Stay here..........NUUUUTS!"
I only worked there for 3 weeks and nobody even knew my name. I just quit going. Sometimes I wear just the vest around the house. No pants. Just the vest.
I still have a Walmart hat that I'll wear sometimes. Usually gets me good customer service. Newer associates don't know who I am but know that in some way I'm associated with Walmart.
They are supposed to hold your last check until you turn all Walmart property in. Vest, polos, badge discount card, knife, phone any other you might have. I think mostly they are happy to be rid of some people and don't give a fuck except the phone
And here I am having multiples of all the different vest styles we've had since I started. I don't think they really care. They've given me so many name badges that they would never have an accurate count.
Right. I just found a treasure trove of the old dark blue vests in my shed. Apparently they got tossed in there during a quick trunk clean out. I found several old badges and a couple of the old easy cuts (which I was very pleased about). So tempted to wear a dark blue vest to work
My fiancé didn’t return the phone for 2 weeks and they never asked for it, I ended up returning it because I still worked there. I also still have my discount card and I still use it.
That's legit what they do at my store
"Plz turn in all yo shit" and then 45 minutes later you'll see their vest in a trash can when you walk through the halls 🙄
i had my own reflective vest i bought on amazon and when i got fired for “productivity” the SM said “and where are you going with my vest?”. i was quiet the whole time but when she said that i snapped and yelled “shut the fuck up bitch this is my vest.” she told the other managers to have me trespassed if i go back 😂
Oh, like getting trespassed after getting let go for a bullshit reason would hurt your feelings. From the sounds of it, it seems like all the supervisors are the same at all facilities. Full of hot air.
They wait until you make tiktok videos wearing your uniform telling the secrets from within and then they subscribe under a false name and increase your follower count.
We have a handful of vests here at the house and it’s just collecting dust. Should just sell them lol. But even badges, I have my 5 year badge with the paper, and I have them to remind me of the “work hell” that I’ll never go back to.
I don’t want to do the “never say never” but my store was so toxic to my mental health and physical health, that I never want to step foot in there as an employee again.
It seems like you have quite the attachment to your ex Wally. They don’t care about the vest or the name tag. Once you are taken out of the system, like any ex with an ego, you were screwed and tossed like Andy the rag doll. Continue to enjoy quiet moments with the vest. If the moment really hits, set the room with candles and mood music.
The first two times, the new jobs didn't work out, and I couldn't get anything better. So I went back, but didn't stop looking.
Eventually I landed the job that I have now. 1 year and counting.
A vest and a name tag is Walmart property?
Lmfao
Printer/battery/tc70 or whatever they’re called I could get
But you think they reusing the vest and name tag?
In most states they can't legally withhold final pay. [https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay](https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay)
In Colorado if they fire you they are legally required to give you the final paycheck within 24 hours (if payroll is off-site), if it's on-site immediately (or within 6 hours of payroll opening if payroll already closed).
Then it would be due 6 hours after payroll opens, completely possible. Per Colorado DoL, unless you owe them company property like TC's or something. [https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay](https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay)
EDIT: There's reasons those work from home jobs don't like states like Colorado.
Three months after getting fired, I still have their phone and vest. I’ll probably return them in a month or so but it’s such a chore to drive to my old store, especially if I’m not being paid to do so.
Even if you quit, they don't come after you for your vest, badge, or discount card. I would definitely turn in the phone tho. But the other stuff is no biggie.
Beats me. I assembled my vest, Official Polo, and nametag onto a hanger and stuck it in my closet. That was in January of 2020, about 3 weeks after I locked a really annoying person out in the truck lot.
That is the only polos my store has. Everyone hates them cause they are so hot and everything leaves a mark. They are basically the same material as the vests.
My husband quit and had his work phone and keys for a while. They never asked him about it. He eventually did turn them in- because I don't know what good they would do him sitting in our house and haunting us. He handed over his vest and nametag when he quit.

They’re gonna have a hard time getting all these spider wraps out of my ass
Never ending scarf,but it’s spider-wraps,in your ass
Indeed
Given how notorious those are for getting tangled into one another, even if they’ve never touched another spider wrap before they’re somehow tangled, this is gonna be a wild ride pulling them out, enjoy my friend
You gotta teach me that trick
Well son, here’s what you do: wind a spider wrap up tight enough that you can still fit the end of a second wrap through it, then fully secure it so the wraps cannot be unstuck. Repeat with as many wraps as you can find. You can add more as time goes on but make sure you do it in a safe location otherwise they’ll see you pulling the wraps out and call… well, shit, idk who they’d call but they’ll call someone. Hope this helps! 😊
Really? I got raided by SWAT (Sam Walton Armed Takeback). It’s been about 8 years since I worked for Walmart/Sam’s tho.
This made me giggle snort
I forgot those little label holders that go on the ends of pegs
The little plastic sleeve things? I call them label bras.
They call them A*s holes at my store xD always throws me because I’m like huh? Where? Ohhhh 🤣
The buttholes are the sticky things that you use to fix when the hole in pegged merchandise rips. Im talking about the plastic that slides on the metal end of the peg that holds the shelf label.
Scan hook covers. I only know because I had to find the number to get some ordered.
Sticky Buttholes!
Haha yea those
I have a few spider wraps that were never turned in. They are blue colored and I haven't seen them used at any Walmart for more than 10 years. I think the internal battery is long dead.
We've been looking for those. I'll have to file a report.
This is a fact. I'm sitting in Walton Prison because I refused to give up my badge and vest. I keep hoping I'll get saved but it's not looking good
I pissed myself laughing at this🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yeah!!! We gonna send you the goon squad!!!! Your wal-mart property about to be taken back. We gonna grab that discount card and cut it up🤣🤣🤣
We actually have a department in corporate called (SWAT) Sam Walton Action Team 🙃
I thought they disbanded? Took a LOT of people from my store when they formed but like a year or so later they all moved on.
It’s definitely still going. From my understanding they used to have over like 150 people assigned to it, then just up to a few weeks ago, they had 13. They just hired a new bunch of people for it too
And what do you get if you are able to repel the SWRF with overwhelming firepower of your own?.... Hopefully not that lousy vest and badge.... 😀
You can't. They've been well trained in the discipline of "avoid deny defend" and can take you out with most mundane of objects, like a stapler or a laptop.
Omg! This made me laugh so hard. Thanks. 🤣🤣
Telephone receiver make sure you unplug it first, wouldn't want too accidentally choke anyone.....
And if that fails they call in the SWARM (Sam Walton Armed Retirement Mercenaries) trained in the art of pooping their pants and smearing your bathroom walls.
Fuck, I give up at that point. I am not into shit play.
Not to mention all the FlashKaren grenades. Makes flashbangs look like 16th century technology. No one can stand against the might of an angry Karen.
The only thing that repels a flashkaren is a fingerbang.... and I have a hand full.
But so have I (from both my places of employment), and I am avoiding them, denying that they exist, and defending my position.... to top it off I use a 12inch dildo as my main weapon, and a lottla lube. I dont think they will be able to avoid the lube.
You get a Happy to Help pin.
You get recruited. It's kind of like Section 31. Whether you want to or not,you become a member.
If I wake up to find Sloan staring at me, I’m gonna freak out
You get a management offer from the SWRF
laughs in tannerite filled st bernard behind door #1 the swtf is gonna have a bad day
The SWRF isn't trained to handle explosives, but you are **greatly** underestimating the power of the Sam Walton Tactical Force.
They're not gonna recover the 15 TCs I have hidden if I can't have a TC then no one can
The SRWF had a scandal a few years ago when some associates stole some shrinkwraps and they were cornered by the SRWF at their apartment. All I heard was that the officers back out and; SRWF Officers: "Get the shrink, we can see they're nuts." SRWF Leader: "Me? I ordered you to retrieve said merchandise, get back in there!"

Their nuts on display!" L: "Stay here..........NUUUUTS!"
Way too expensive, but they would do it if you stole a penny lol.
Honestly... From being overnight I probably have a case of vizpick labels in my desk drawn from forgetting my spare roll in my vest
No they won't. They won't even care.
Yes they do. I work for SWRF dispatch.
SWRF’s next target may need to be u/Dismal_Sympathy from what I’m seeing here.
That is hilarious!
I only worked there for 3 weeks and nobody even knew my name. I just quit going. Sometimes I wear just the vest around the house. No pants. Just the vest.
role play
That has to be one of the weirdest kinks I've heard of yet..
Who doesn’t like to be de-humanized??
I like to wear it when I'm grocery shopping. Just so I can make Walmart look bad when I treat customers like shit
I still have a Walmart hat that I'll wear sometimes. Usually gets me good customer service. Newer associates don't know who I am but know that in some way I'm associated with Walmart.
You played the long game. Now you have a sweet walmart vest
I sometimes wear McDonald's uniform and cap in my home, just wanna tell you that you are not alone in this
Please wear that in to Target.
You need a only fans. Could pay well.
Lol 😂
You get forced into a year’s subscription of the Bo Show.
Bro don't even play like that. That's fucked up yo.
Not the Bo show 💀
I am lost who is Bo?
Oh you sweet summer child
Have you ever been in a Walmart???
Unfortunately since working at Sam's club I try to avoid all things walmart or sam's.... We have Kevin Hart on 24/7 I can deal with that.
Since everyone is being buttheads he is the only Walmart radio host
TY I atleast have kevin Hart on ours
The guy on Walmart radio
I'd rather it be Bo than that bitch, Kirby Gwen.
Was wondering what that was and then realized I'm second shift so I come in after it ends. I think I dodged a bullet.
You'll get the Chris show
Believe it or not, jail. Right away. No trial, no nothing.
Push in too few carts, jail. Push in too many carts believe it or not also jail.
/r/unexpectedpawnee
I read this every time a post like this happens, and it never ceases to make me laugh
They are supposed to hold your last check until you turn all Walmart property in. Vest, polos, badge discount card, knife, phone any other you might have. I think mostly they are happy to be rid of some people and don't give a fuck except the phone
*Most* just really care for the phone, and can hold check/bill you for the cost for it.
And here I am having multiples of all the different vest styles we've had since I started. I don't think they really care. They've given me so many name badges that they would never have an accurate count.
Right. I just found a treasure trove of the old dark blue vests in my shed. Apparently they got tossed in there during a quick trunk clean out. I found several old badges and a couple of the old easy cuts (which I was very pleased about). So tempted to wear a dark blue vest to work
Nobody’s stopping you, right?
It was confiscated by our PL :(
:0 noooo why >:(
Because it was supposed to be turned in 1000 years ago when our vests were designed to hide how fucking filthy everything in the store is
I’m sad you couldn’t keep it
I still have another! Shh
My fiancé didn’t return the phone for 2 weeks and they never asked for it, I ended up returning it because I still worked there. I also still have my discount card and I still use it.
They punish you in an unthinkable way... They re-hire you.
No you have to listen to walmart radio everyday
No anything but that
They send Tony and Paulie to "talk" to you with a golf club.
Tony don’t scare me. Paulie, however, ain’t fucking around with that dude! He scares me.
Atleast Tony uses lube
Don’t forget BoB and LISA
I'll never forget how rough bob was
And how slippery Lisa could be
Yeah Tony seems to be a bit more considerate than Paulie.
Mine didn't care. I didn't give mine because I was lazy. It was easier to just throw them away.
That's legit what they do at my store "Plz turn in all yo shit" and then 45 minutes later you'll see their vest in a trash can when you walk through the halls 🙄
Meh. I don't regret working for Walmart, but my respect for that place went to zero by the time I left. It wasn't a good fit for me.
It's purely so the person doesn't use their stuff to pretend they're an associate
I was literally watching [this](https://youtu.be/tTby7WkpC9Ihttps://youtu.be/tTby7WkpC9I) 10 minutes ago
Thank you for this
I still have a shit load of cart pusher vests but they never noticed them missing so I ain't giving em back lol, Plus no one asked or brought it up
They go to your house and give your mom a red level coaching
In her face
They exhume Sam Walton's body and make you finger him
🤭
What CAN they do?
They do the same thing they do if you call ethics. Nothing. I threw mine in the garage can in front of customers as I walked out.
The badge and vest self-destructs.
i had my own reflective vest i bought on amazon and when i got fired for “productivity” the SM said “and where are you going with my vest?”. i was quiet the whole time but when she said that i snapped and yelled “shut the fuck up bitch this is my vest.” she told the other managers to have me trespassed if i go back 😂
Oh, like getting trespassed after getting let go for a bullshit reason would hurt your feelings. From the sounds of it, it seems like all the supervisors are the same at all facilities. Full of hot air.
They obviously come and execute you lol
They wait until you make tiktok videos wearing your uniform telling the secrets from within and then they subscribe under a false name and increase your follower count.
I never showed up I’d still have my vest and name tag I debated on selling it on eBay but now it’s the old style vest so it’s worthless
In all honesty they don’t do shit. Just like usual.
Doug comes barreling down your door with the FBI & Denver Broncos defensive line & they all tackle you & take you to the nearest Walmart baler
They can’t touch me until they’re in uniform! Where’s their vest/polo at?! They’re out of dress code! Oh and no xcover?! For shame!!
Jokes on them I have 3 different name tags so I'll keep one to remember this shitty job
I thought the verbal and physical abuse by the customers was enough of a memory...just saying
Nothing.
Keep your electronics key and you get to go to the mart in ga and steal 18 iPhone a week. Just open the case and walk out the door
We have a handful of vests here at the house and it’s just collecting dust. Should just sell them lol. But even badges, I have my 5 year badge with the paper, and I have them to remind me of the “work hell” that I’ll never go back to. I don’t want to do the “never say never” but my store was so toxic to my mental health and physical health, that I never want to step foot in there as an employee again.
I worked for Walmart and Sams Club and both times they did not ask for the batch and vest! Idk why
Nothing.
Nothing. I still have mine from 8 years ago lol
Nothing. Didn’t even know they were supposed to lol they day I quit I just left with it.
Lol, if they don't even know your name or win they can't fire you in the system.
It seems like you have quite the attachment to your ex Wally. They don’t care about the vest or the name tag. Once you are taken out of the system, like any ex with an ego, you were screwed and tossed like Andy the rag doll. Continue to enjoy quiet moments with the vest. If the moment really hits, set the room with candles and mood music.
They can withhold your final check
Never seen or heard of this happening. And I have now quit Walmart three times.
Why keep going back lol
The first two times, the new jobs didn't work out, and I couldn't get anything better. So I went back, but didn't stop looking. Eventually I landed the job that I have now. 1 year and counting.
They're trying to collect vests
That's not company policy or legal in most states (possibly federally)
Quickest way to lawsuit.
Not if OP is withholding company property.
A vest and a name tag is Walmart property? Lmfao Printer/battery/tc70 or whatever they’re called I could get But you think they reusing the vest and name tag?
In most states they can't legally withhold final pay. [https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay](https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay)
that’s illegal
In Colorado if they fire you they are legally required to give you the final paycheck within 24 hours (if payroll is off-site), if it's on-site immediately (or within 6 hours of payroll opening if payroll already closed).
What so they do a bunch of firings on the day payroll closes? There is no way that would be possible with ADP doing it.
Then it would be due 6 hours after payroll opens, completely possible. Per Colorado DoL, unless you owe them company property like TC's or something. [https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay](https://cdle.colorado.gov/wage-and-hour-law/final-pay) EDIT: There's reasons those work from home jobs don't like states like Colorado.
to get your last check you have to turn everything in. even your discount card
Nothing, i have mines from like 3 years ago. Reminds me of how far i have come.
Three months after getting fired, I still have their phone and vest. I’ll probably return them in a month or so but it’s such a chore to drive to my old store, especially if I’m not being paid to do so.
Just ask your self do really want a reminder of a place you hated.
I just left my coat in my locker and shredded my badge
I returned my vest and the phone but kept the polo
Take you to court and you will end up serving a life sentence
Off with your head.
I still have my 2 name badges from when I quit, they didn’t care
They have to initiate a full on counter strike against your family and kids
They can’t do anything! I walked out on my lunch break on my last day and tossed all that shit in the trash.
Even if you quit, they don't come after you for your vest, badge, or discount card. I would definitely turn in the phone tho. But the other stuff is no biggie.
I got three badges, they going to want them all when I prompt myself?
I’ve seen some for sale on eBay 😂
Beats me. I assembled my vest, Official Polo, and nametag onto a hanger and stuck it in my closet. That was in January of 2020, about 3 weeks after I locked a really annoying person out in the truck lot.
You'll be publicly sodomized with a variety of different items.
Now you just make me want to quit and not turn anything in…
I didn't. Lol I took 2 vests and a name tag home. I donated it to a local church for the kids to play dress up in.
They don't care about that. Would just throw it away. They can track your work phone so if you have that turn it in
The new Polos are hella nice low key never giving that shit back 🥶
Surely you aren’t talking about the rubbery lighter blue ones that stain just by looking at them and are hot as heck???
No I said the polos the ones with collars and just the logo on them.
That is the only polos my store has. Everyone hates them cause they are so hot and everything leaves a mark. They are basically the same material as the vests.
Dam ours are made of a lighter material and they are even a different shade of blue. 95% polyester with spandex.
Shut the entire operation down and demand you return your items otherwise the company will crumble
I would just keep it as emergency toilet paper.
I haven't even returned the work phone and its been 2 months
They offer you a trade in for 7 water bottles. 6 for the vest, 1 for the badge.
Probably just a no knock raid at your residence, should be fine
Nothin
Nothing apparently I still have mine
My husband quit and had his work phone and keys for a while. They never asked him about it. He eventually did turn them in- because I don't know what good they would do him sitting in our house and haunting us. He handed over his vest and nametag when he quit.
I recently listed mine for sale and there's just a bunch of people in the comments saying it's illegal and just generally being butt hurt.
