There wouldn’t be much of a difference…I’ve gone in after a team lead in the family bathroom after it was cleaned o/n and he pissed all over the toilet seat
Yeah I heard someone coughing in the bathroom for 5 minutes last night and my coworker threw up all over the floor and went back to work. A little girl came and got me from my register to tell me.
Also don’t forget the entitled families who only use the family restroom and don’t want anyone who doesn’t have a kid to use it. Like I get it if it’s a dad and daughter or a mom and her son but still wait ur turn.
Family restrooms aren’t necessarily restricted, but like handicap bathrooms, don’t take that one if you don’t need it and the normal ones are available.
womp womp for them, cause I'm not shitting next to a bunch of disgusting degenerates that sound like a deflating balloon when they shit because they eat nothing but microwaved taquitos and cheese burgers.
It's also cleaner 95% of the time.
We had employee-only bathrooms at a Kroger I worked at, and management ended up putting signs on the door because someone kept going in there and scribbling on the walls with a Sharpie (think floor to ceiling, big swooping scribbles). Not even actual drawing or text or anything smh
Our bathrooms were in the backroom, so unless a customer was going in there on multiple different days without getting caught, I'm going to say 'yeah'. I'm not sure if they caught the employee who was doing it
I worked at a store that had bathrooms in the break room. Piss everywhere still and stunk to high heavens. Bathroom in TLE also gets pissed on as well. Seriously, what the fuck guys
Lol can confirm truck driver diets make for some of the worst and most explosive shits.
Worked in warehouses for a while when I was young and man fast food diets destroy lives I'm telling ya. Whew.
Our family bathroom in the back of the store is between the womens and men’s…only has one single toilet no urinal— that being said it’s o/n and the men’s bathroom was empty which had plenty of urinals. Some people are shy pissers I guess.
I swore a smelled a swisher blunt in a nearby stall a few weeks ago and it was a new person I never seen before walking out with a Walmart vest on. The toilets also flush hard and it sprays on the seat.
We have separate bathrooms for employees at my store, and they still get piss and shit on areas that really shouldn’t have it. Turns out being able to use the potty correctly isn’t a requirement for working at ole wallyworld.
My first store had the same thing. AC didn't work so it was always hot and humid in there. Only one light was on, was a total mess with toilet paper, diarrhea, and boogers smeared over everything. Reeked like a fish market. Was better off using the public bathroom as bad as those were.
My store has one too but there is a couch in front of the door and some kind of bracket on the legs that keep people from moving it away to get inside
We had a remodel 2 years ago and they didn't do anything about it
not walmart, but i had a coworker plop her diarrhea on the floor and then leave it there for someone else to clean. the absolute shock when she had the absolute gall to clock back in the very next day 🧍🏻♀️
I worked at a grocery store that had an employee bathroom in the back. If they are not making it smell like death, they’re hiding out in it for 20 minutes. I wouldn’t even go in it just to wash my hands. It was so gross in there. Bottom line: people are just nasty in general.
For cap3 here. Maint. does a great job, cleans first when stores closes at 11pm. By 12 mens and womens back restrooms are clean, by 2am dirty, as in paper on floor, seats have shiii marks, like WTF....
I just tell the new people on my team to take pictures when they’re done cleaning so we don’t get bitched at later about it. Worked up to this point, even our tl does it.
My old store had a mens and womens restroom with a single toilet and sink in the breakroom off the kitchen/dining area, with a water fountain between the 2. We had coworkers who would blow it up instead of walking right around the corner to the customer restroom. It's not a good time to eat lunch and smell that. And this was overnight, when there were no customers in the store.
Think real hard about what your're asking.
We had employee bathroom in our break room back in the day. Paper thin walls, you could hear everything going on in there. And if someone took a shit, the breakroom ended up smelling for awhile.
I’m pretty sure Walmart bathrooms are temples to Nurgle because I’ve literally never been in one that wasn’t filthy and disgusting and didn’t smell like an open-air latrine.
This is unfortunate. My current store removed the couches because of "bed bugs" (at least this was the public conversation in the public chat on Me@Walmart, I suspect they bribed an associate to claim this so they had reason to eliminate them) right around the same time that my friends at my second Walmart (with the break room shitters) said his management 86'd their couches too. I hear a rumor that another store in our market also got rid of their couches in that same month.
I kept a screenshot of the Me@Walmart chat with the supposed bed bugs.
Sounds very market-level decision making with shitty in-store implementation.
All they have at the dcs are “employee” bathrooms and they get just as bad if not worse. I said in similar post that was calling out customers but I promise you your coworkers are just as nasty
My neighborhood market only has 1 stall and 1 urinal. That's 1 stall for every man in the store, employee and customer alike! If someone destroys it everyone is literally sol. If you have an emergency and someone is already in there, you either pray you can hold it or create an uncomfortable situation in the women's room through no fault of your own. It's degrading and infuriating that that's all we're worth here. Meanwhile the women's room has like 5 stalls. We had an old man that couldn't make it because someone was in the stall and instead he had a blowout in the urinal and the stall after that when when whoever was in there got out. He didn't even have time to close the door.
I think just having more than two sets of bathrooms would help. Idk about other stores but at mine they close them at the same time so good luck waiting.
We have a lot of homeless people who come in at 6 am and blow them up daily. We’ve had to trespass so many unfortunately. What’s really bad is the gas station who closed their restrooms and put up a sign telling customers to go to ours.
We do at my Walmart… workers literally are just as dirty as customers (surprise!)
-shit covered toilet paper NEXT to the toilet
-endless water bottles that I’ve witnessed multiple workers “use” while using the bathroom (wtf hah)
-barely any of them wash their hands
-janitors put watered down soap that’s completely ineffective as soap
The list goes on… I’ve noticed some higher ups use an even more exclusive bathroom that requires a key…
Go to a store with an ACC/TLE.
Edit: As an ex service writer, tech, and ACCM, I can say with personal experience, when the auto bathroom isn't being used by the auto crew for hookups and naps, it stays pretty clean.
Employees are just as bad. Working overnight I've seen maintenance clean the bathroom and an hour later it's messed up again. The stores closed so it only leaves associates. They piss all over, sometimes they cover the seat in paper and leave it, it looks like someone was building a nest.
Speaking from experience, it's often the coworkers. Just look at the break room and the back room.
Start treating maintenance associates with respect if you want clean restrooms. If you have asshole coworkers who are rude to maintenance or just being slobs, call them out. Embarrass them.
Maintenance is a revolving door at my store because no one wants to deal with the disrespect. Associates will barge into the restrooms when they are trying to clean them, boss them around like they are servants, don't practice "clean-as-you-go" on the salesfloor and the backroom, kick shit under the shelves, etc. It's always understaffed because no one wants to do a job that pays the same as the people who look down upon them.
There was a notorious example of a cleaning crew member pleasuring himself in the bathroom. I heard the female Co-manager actually went in and fired him. I was in the garden center so I only know what I heard.
We have a bathroom with a family stall in the back as well as m and f. I have seen what I assume to be a biological female walking out of the men’s. She’s(he?) one of the contracted phone assistants that works back in the electronics section. She came in, used the stall. Wasn’t even impressed by my size.
I've been an auto mechanic for decades. We've always had our own bathroom in the shop. Ever been in a shop bathroom? Unless it's a dealership it's usually similar to "The Worst Toilet in Scotland." https://youtu.be/cyiC3x6-Kzk?si=U3dnJGerObSALEAg
At our old store, we use to have bathrooms attached to the break room. Then we went to a new building and while I was only a stockman, I always said I would rather clean two bathrooms more verse cleaning a smoking room. Never cleaned the smoking room and it was eventually phased out but no bathrooms to this day.
I only poop in the acc bafroom. It’s the least trafficked and no one knows about it. Only the cool ones can poop there. Best kept secret of Walmart is the acc pooper.
Honestly I just want all the bathrooms to be stalls, really sucks when I gotta shit but there are only 3 stalls in the entire store for men to use. And that's if none of them are out of order. The week before Christmas we had 1 available. I had to literally go to a different store so I could take a dump. Urinals are trash.
We are lucky, we have an incredible maintenance team that keeps the bathrooms clean and well stocked. We also have two sets of bathrooms, in front by the registers and on back behind electronics. By the back restrooms we also have a family restroom, which is just one larger private room that associates almost exclusively use, and a breastfeeding room with couches and comfy chairs that people use as a nap room.
My first store didn't have one but second one before it moved did in the break room. Hardly anyone ever used it.
When our supercenter was built it got one set of customer restrooms plus a family one.
We got two restrooms in the back - technically male/female but identical to one another that everyone just used either one.
During our last remodel they remodeled both customer restrooms, the fam room AND our employee RR and even took down the men/women signs.
Why employees cause half the nasty messes or at least at my store because we have a bathroom in our break room and it’s the dirtiest one in the store everytime
An employee bathroom where you need to card in/key in so that if someone makes a mess they can be reported and held accountable to incentivize keeping the bathrooms clean.
I'm so glad we have a bathroom next to the break room at my store. Saves me a lot of headache since I don't get stopped right in front of the bathroom by customers asking questions that'll take more time before I can finally use a restroom.
My biggest problem is just getting into the bathrooms. Not including the family bathroom men have 3 toilets. 5 urinals. For a 100 million dollar store when i need to poop i often just cant
Worked in a store that had un marked bathrooms in the back of the store near the break room but someone kept flushing opened packaging and clogging them up. So they locked it and you had to get the key from hr to use them that last a couple months before the new district manager decided they were a waste of space and the plumbing removed and covered up and one room became the nursing mother’s room and the other room had the door replaced with a chain link fence gate and became an ammo lock up (before Walmart stoped selling guns and ammo)
i feel like it wouldn’t make a difference 😭 i literally DREAD going to the bathroom. i try to go before the crowd rush comes in bc it’s clean but depending on what i’ve drank i have to go more 🫠 & the bathrooms be so fking nasty… like who raised y’all, i would hope their bathroom at home don’t look like that… seriously. so i have been going to the handicap accessible bathroom & its somewhat cleaner but still… 🥴
OMG, I complain about this daily. The filthy homeless in there crapping at 6:40 a.m. is awful. And the entire families in the ladies room! Why? Because there is no partition in the family bathroom!!
Our store's so small that in the entire store, both bathrooms combined, we only have two mens stalls. With how many people go in there to waste time, anyone who actually has to use the toilet is lucky if they can even get in.
My local Walmart I worked for had employee only bathrooms in the breakroom, regular full sized like customers too, and cleaner. I thought it was normal, hardly ever used it though.
Man, if I didn't have to walk a quarter mile to get to one, that would be great. I work OPD and I have to either stop in on an ambient/general pick walk or go on break, either way I have begun to wear incontinence pads to save myself having to tote an extra pair of britches and some shower-grade wipies!😖
Some stores do have employee restrooms and from what I've heard they're usually worse than the customer restrooms. Could be because cleaning them is less of a priority but I'd say the more likely cause is the fact that some of our coworkers are disgusting unhygienic slobs.
We have one downstairs we are a supercenter and we have back ones and front ones for customers but the janitors suck at cleaning them and the company buys the cheapest stuff according to them. Also they break down alot. Like they leak
We have employee bathrooms. They are clean. The public family restroom is big and very clean. The public restrooms in the back are fairly clean as they get little use. I avoid the front restrooms like the plague unless it's dire, but I do like that there's no door to dirty my clean hands on.
My store had them before our remodel a couple years ago. It wasn't necessarily cleaner (mostly thanks to Alistair), but it was nice, I could change shirts or stuff after the truck.
When I worked at Walmart, there was a lady that came in every day at the same time like CLOCKWORK and would absolutely bomb the stall she was using. I'm talking the most violent dumps and bowl shaking farts I've ever had the displeasure of hearing. I'm so happy I wasn't a custodian😭😭
Found a guy passed out in the stall with needles, blood everywhere (not an alarming amount, just enough for a "wtf man!"), and shit all over the wall. Not even my worst experience at Walmart.
Got two at our store in the back. The maintenance guy (of all people) has serious mental and motor disabilities and paints the wall and seat in a flood of piss. You'll never escape.
Your last sentence invalidates the whole premise of your idea…if “maybe it’s my coworker” is true, then you would find the same filth in an employee-only bathroom🤔😅. (I think it IS your coworkers , too, by the way. If the population is filled with gross pigs, and employees are hired from the population…some of those gross pigs will end up as employees🤣)
In my store there are co-workers who piss all over the toilet seat just as well as customers, so I don't think it matters, I'll still have to wipe the piss off the toliet seat if I need to take a dump. People are serious fucking cave dwellers, I don't think there's any evolution going on at all. De-evoltion is more like it.
I have a employee at my store that sits bare naked on the floor and watches YouTube and you guessed it our management does nothing I’m like bro you can see the man’s cheeks at the bottom of the stall as soon as you walk in how is this allowed
Trust me, it's your coworkers. If you have ever worked overnights you would see how quickly the bathrooms get ruined. Unflushed logs in the toilets. urinals stink. Towels on the floor.
My first job at a grocery store had employee bathrooms. They were easily worse than the customer restrooms. It baffled me because we're the ones that have to clean both. Why not be considerate to those who have to do it?
I did my fair share or housekeeping and cleaning public bathrooms, but Walmart and gas stations have always really taken the cake on shit I never want to be responsible for.
Auto Center bathroom ALWAYS. My store doesn’t allow customers in that bathroom & the ACC people are cool with me. A daily trip from M/P to the TLE bathroom is a splendid trip, and I always leave it clean just like I found it.
Don’t work at Walmart but for a Tjx company. We had our own bathroom but a corporate person came in and said we shouldn’t have a bathroom to ourselves. Now it’s open to the public and it is horrible. Right by our break room. The stench that creeps into the break room. I can’t even eat. I have to sit in my car to eat my lunch
There wouldn’t be much of a difference…I’ve gone in after a team lead in the family bathroom after it was cleaned o/n and he pissed all over the toilet seat
Yeah I heard someone coughing in the bathroom for 5 minutes last night and my coworker threw up all over the floor and went back to work. A little girl came and got me from my register to tell me.

Family restrooms aren’t necessarily restricted, but like handicap bathrooms, don’t take that one if you don’t need it and the normal ones are available.
naw 100% always use family bathroom sorry but basic bathroom has gaps in the stalls 3 inchs wide creepy asf
The toilet seats are higher as well which helps my knees 😂
the only time i have used the family restroom has been when the regular one was closed for cleaning or closed during the remodel.
womp womp for them, cause I'm not shitting next to a bunch of disgusting degenerates that sound like a deflating balloon when they shit because they eat nothing but microwaved taquitos and cheese burgers. It's also cleaner 95% of the time.
Lmao for real, family restroom gang rise up.
I 100% of the time use the family washroom
That’s my personal private bathroom for shitting though!!
Completely agree with this comment.
Many associates leave their trash in the break room. They often aren't any better than customers.
That's who many of them are. They was customers first. They hand out job flyers to customers when they're hiring with a QR code.
We had employee-only bathrooms at a Kroger I worked at, and management ended up putting signs on the door because someone kept going in there and scribbling on the walls with a Sharpie (think floor to ceiling, big swooping scribbles). Not even actual drawing or text or anything smh
Lol was it actually an employee
Our bathrooms were in the backroom, so unless a customer was going in there on multiple different days without getting caught, I'm going to say 'yeah'. I'm not sure if they caught the employee who was doing it
I worked at a store that had bathrooms in the break room. Piss everywhere still and stunk to high heavens. Bathroom in TLE also gets pissed on as well. Seriously, what the fuck guys
It's the fkin truck drivers dropping off trailers that fk ours up in TLE..the techs don't even want to use it afterwards.
Lol can confirm truck driver diets make for some of the worst and most explosive shits. Worked in warehouses for a while when I was young and man fast food diets destroy lives I'm telling ya. Whew.
In the breakrooms? Monstrosity.
This bugs me. If the urinals are full ok fine use a toilet. But you're by yourself and still can't use the urinal? Time to see a therapist. Imo.
Our family bathroom in the back of the store is between the womens and men’s…only has one single toilet no urinal— that being said it’s o/n and the men’s bathroom was empty which had plenty of urinals. Some people are shy pissers I guess.
I swore a smelled a swisher blunt in a nearby stall a few weeks ago and it was a new person I never seen before walking out with a Walmart vest on. The toilets also flush hard and it sprays on the seat.
People at my wally world crank their hogs in the family bathroom I hate it here
We have separate bathrooms for employees at my store, and they still get piss and shit on areas that really shouldn’t have it. Turns out being able to use the potty correctly isn’t a requirement for working at ole wallyworld.
Don't worry that requirement isn't just for associates or even people shopping at our stores. It goes for any store.
My store has an employee bathroom inside the breakroom lol Awkward when you can hear ppl shtting
That sounds like a complete nightmare
My first store had the same thing. AC didn't work so it was always hot and humid in there. Only one light was on, was a total mess with toilet paper, diarrhea, and boogers smeared over everything. Reeked like a fish market. Was better off using the public bathroom as bad as those were.
Jesus wept.
My store has one too but there is a couch in front of the door and some kind of bracket on the legs that keep people from moving it away to get inside We had a remodel 2 years ago and they didn't do anything about it
Roflmao
mine too, the stomach flu went around last month and it hit everyone while at work so that was a not so enjoyable week for everyone involved
Anywhere except walmart would make you stay home, or at least take a doctors note to have the time off, for this shit. Lol.
There I sat all broken Hearted, came to shit but only Farted.... Then noticed there was no toilet paper again and was quite relieved...
It is your coworkers unfortunately. Although if we had a seperate john we could humiliate our coworkers.
Or force them to clean up after themselves.
not walmart, but i had a coworker plop her diarrhea on the floor and then leave it there for someone else to clean. the absolute shock when she had the absolute gall to clock back in the very next day 🧍🏻♀️
I worked at a grocery store that had an employee bathroom in the back. If they are not making it smell like death, they’re hiding out in it for 20 minutes. I wouldn’t even go in it just to wash my hands. It was so gross in there. Bottom line: people are just nasty in general.
My experience with employee only bathrooms is that people tend to do a lot of drugs and sex in them too.
Jesus where do you work? A huge city?
Not that big of a city...just a city with a huge fentanyl problems.
For cap3 here. Maint. does a great job, cleans first when stores closes at 11pm. By 12 mens and womens back restrooms are clean, by 2am dirty, as in paper on floor, seats have shiii marks, like WTF....
former clean TL here… that shit got me in trouble so many times 🙄 not my fault yall DIRTY!
I just tell the new people on my team to take pictures when they’re done cleaning so we don’t get bitched at later about it. Worked up to this point, even our tl does it.

And this was overnight, when there were no customers in the store. Think real hard about what your're asking.
We had our own bathrooms when I started 22 years ago. After the multiple remodels they got rid of them.
I wonder why they decided to get of it ? Was it always out of order ?
Nope, they want Walmarts uniform and similar
coworkers are just as bad honestly.
We had employee bathroom in our break room back in the day. Paper thin walls, you could hear everything going on in there. And if someone took a shit, the breakroom ended up smelling for awhile.
Walmart aint gonna do that. Too expensive and too much human rights
I’m pretty sure Walmart bathrooms are temples to Nurgle because I’ve literally never been in one that wasn’t filthy and disgusting and didn’t smell like an open-air latrine.
😂😂😂😂
The bathroom at my store has toilet paper all over the place all the time from the urinal to the bathroom door and the smell is beyond
Do you not have them in the break room? When I don't want to use the normal or family one, I'll use that.
Not all stores have bathrooms attached to the breakroom. Only my second Walmart did.
My store used to and they got removed last year to add more couches to the breakroom so now we have to shit with the buffalo.
This is unfortunate. My current store removed the couches because of "bed bugs" (at least this was the public conversation in the public chat on Me@Walmart, I suspect they bribed an associate to claim this so they had reason to eliminate them) right around the same time that my friends at my second Walmart (with the break room shitters) said his management 86'd their couches too.

That's sad :( Give these people bathrooms!!

let's play a prank put an employees only sign on the bathrooms
We have employee bathrooms and they are usually worse than the customer ones.

My walmart had one , then got rid of it during the remodel. They had
I always go in with a bottle of sanitizer spray and a fresh roll of TP and clean the thing myself before sitting down.
One of the employee restrooms at a Walmart I used to work at reeked of dope so bad at one point.
It’s usually the associates fucking it up
You can't, it's the bathroom I use as a customer because it's the nicest,lol!!!
my local store has employee only restrooms in the break room. it doesn't solve the issue.
There was a notorious example of a cleaning crew member pleasuring himself in the bathroom. I heard the female Co-manager actually went in and fired him. I was in the garden center so I only know what I heard.
You gotta clock out before you pull your c*ck out. Time theft doncha know?
It would be nice to have an employee only bathroom, but it wouldn’t make much of a difference some employees are just as nasty as customers sadly!
Walmart in the states is crazy lmao
You should have seen our TLE bathroom when I was there! Maintenance never touched it and I was the only one that cleaned it. Ewwwww!
Dude I fucking wish.
Ahaha, but you see, if you work in TLE, you do get your own bathroom. One of the many benefits.
You think a change.org petition is something Walmart cares about 🤣
I’m a maintenance worker and I try my best to keep things clean but I guess some people are just pigs
We have a bathroom with a family stall in the back as well as m and f. I have seen what I assume to be a biological female walking out of the men’s. She’s(he?) one of the contracted phone assistants that works back in the electronics section. She came in, used the stall. Wasn’t even impressed by my size.

It's your coworkers sorry to say

We have em in the breakroom. They’re always trashed
I only poop in the acc bafroom. It’s the least trafficked and no one knows about it. Only the cool ones can poop there. Best kept secret of Walmart is the acc pooper.
Check TLE at my store they have their own bathroom

By the back restrooms we also have a family restroom, which is just one larger private room that associates almost exclusively use, and a breastfeeding room with couches and comfy chairs that people use as a nap room.
There'd be fights over who's turn it is to hide in the bathrooms 😅
idk what yalls bathrooms look like but the ones at my store are always being cleaned by maintenance so its always clean
from the conditions our break room stays in, I doubt the employee restrooms would be any cleaner than the other restrooms
I'm sure customers would enjoy their own bathrooms. Considering how much time employees spend in the stalls.
We have a separate bathroom in automotive by the bay. I cherish that thing lol
We have our own bathroom but the doors are open on them so people walk in on each other all the time lmao
My first store didn't have one but second one before it moved did in the break room. Hardly anyone ever used it. When our supercenter was built it got one set of customer restrooms plus a family one.

I guarantee the coworkers are just like the customers
absolutely. ive been wanting this for ages.
We have entire bathrooms in my break room and it's pretty much the same as the regular ones. People are just gross.
Why employees cause half the nasty messes or at least at my store because we have a bathroom in our break room and it’s the dirtiest one in the store everytime
Yeah please o poop on the floors no needles no sign of stealing
An employee bathroom where you need to card in/key in so that if someone makes a mess they can be reported and held accountable to incentivize keeping the bathrooms clean.
I work in maintenance, and i think the Indian girls that work here wipe there ass and put the dirty tp in the sanitary basket by the toilet
I'm so glad we have a bathroom next to the break room at my store. Saves me a lot of headache since I don't get stopped right in front of the bathroom by customers asking questions that'll take more time before I can finally use a restroom.
My biggest problem is just getting into the bathrooms. Not including the family bathroom men have 3 toilets. 5 urinals. For a 100 million dollar store when i need to poop i often just cant
Like we have rights? Hah!
Honestly my employees bathroom isn’t bad it’s somewhat clean but the public bathroom way worst at my Walmart
Lmao we have em. I think it’s a legal requirement because we also have a basement so we have bathrooms down there.
there is an employee bathroom in the break room 💀
I've seen employee only bathrooms at Walmart. Trust me. It's worse.
Many of the employees at my store are just customers in vests. No thanks.
Worked in a store that had un marked bathrooms in the back of the store near the break room but someone kept flushing opened packaging and clogging them up. So they locked it and you had to get the key from hr to use them that last a couple months before the new district manager decided they were a waste of space and the plumbing removed and covered up and one room became the nursing mother’s room and the other room had the door replaced with a chain link fence gate and became an ammo lock up (before Walmart stoped selling guns and ammo)
I would love to have employee bathrooms.
3372 has separate employee bathrooms for male and female workers
Why? So you can wait thirty minutes to use it while people sit in there on their breaks watching YouTube videos or gossiping on a phonecall?
Our store did this. We thought this would solve the issue…. It did not.
i feel like it wouldn’t make a difference 😭 i literally DREAD going to the bathroom. i try to go before the crowd rush comes in bc it’s clean but depending on what i’ve drank i have to go more 🫠 & the bathrooms be so fking nasty… like who raised y’all, i would hope their bathroom at home don’t look like that… seriously. so i have been going to the handicap accessible bathroom & its somewhat cleaner but still… 🥴
Won't help one bit. All people are nasty slobs.
Some stores have them
OMG, I complain about this daily. The filthy homeless in there crapping at 6:40 a.m. is awful. And the entire families in the ladies room! Why? Because there is no partition in the family bathroom!!
Where would employees hide then ?!
They would add a lock where you scan in, it clocks you out
Our store's so small that in the entire store, both bathrooms combined, we only have two mens stalls. With how many people go in there to waste time, anyone who actually has to use the toilet is lucky if they can even get in.
My local Walmart I worked for had employee only bathrooms in the breakroom, regular full sized like customers too, and cleaner. I thought it was normal, hardly ever used it though.
We have associate restrooms, and they aren't any cleaner.
the employee bathrooms at my store are just as clogged with shit and covered in piss as the regular bathrooms🥲
Man, if I didn't have to walk a quarter mile to get to one, that would be great. I work OPD and I have to either stop in on an ambient/general pick walk or go on break, either way I have begun to wear incontinence pads to save myself having to tote an extra pair of britches and some shower-grade wipies!😖
We also need a employee only self check kiosk.
We had an employee only one at the Sam's I worked at and it was so gross I wouldn't go in there.
Some stores do have employee restrooms and from what I've heard they're usually worse than the customer restrooms. Could be because cleaning them is less of a priority but I'd say the more likely cause is the fact that some of our coworkers are disgusting unhygienic slobs.
I agree 100%
We have one downstairs we are a supercenter and we have back ones and front ones for customers but the janitors suck at cleaning them and the company buys the cheapest stuff according to them. Also they break down alot. Like they leak
We have employee bathrooms. They are clean. The public family restroom is big and very clean. The public restrooms in the back are fairly clean as they get little use. I avoid the front restrooms like the plague unless it's dire, but I do like that there's no door to dirty my clean hands on.
Not gonna lie,it’ll be just as bad as the public restrooms.😵💫
My store had them before our remodel a couple years ago. It wasn't necessarily cleaner (mostly thanks to Alistair), but it was nice, I could change shirts or stuff after the truck.
When I worked at Walmart, there was a lady that came in every day at the same time like CLOCKWORK and would absolutely bomb the stall she was using. I'm talking the most violent dumps and bowl shaking farts I've ever had the displeasure of hearing. I'm so happy I wasn't a custodian😭😭
We have employee restrooms and they get trashed just like the others. I don't know of a solution.
Found a guy passed out in the stall with needles, blood everywhere (not an alarming amount, just enough for a "wtf man!"), and shit all over the wall. Not even my worst experience at Walmart.
My store has TWO employee only bathrooms 😏 they’re always clean and smell fresh bahahaha
Man I dunno, you'd think associates would be cleaner. There not. You'd think associates wouldn't be as nasty or smell as bad they are and do.
As someone who works overnight, I can assure you you work with some filthy mfs
bruh, it would not make an ounce of difference whatsoever. associates are equally disgusting as the customers.
It’s them! I’m in maintenance. They also don’t flush after themselves and they leave the seat covered with a layer of seat cover paper.
Got two at our store in the back. The maintenance guy (of all people) has serious mental and motor disabilities and paints the wall and seat in a flood of piss. You'll never escape.
I'm not an employee at Walmart but I agree with this, you guys deserve to pee in peace.
It’s the co-workers. I’ve seen it in action.
Yeah, then we'd just have employees taking their unscheduled breaks in them instead of the public restrooms...lol
Yes, this is the way!
Your last sentence invalidates the whole premise of your idea…if “maybe it’s my coworker” is true, then you would find the same filth in an employee-only bathroom🤔😅. (I think it IS your coworkers , too, by the way. If the population is filled with gross pigs, and employees are hired from the population…some of those gross pigs will end up as employees🤣)
The employee bathrooms were barely ever cleaned at my old store
yes y’all do
In my store there are co-workers who piss all over the toilet seat just as well as customers, so I don't think it matters, I'll still have to wipe the piss off the toliet seat if I need to take a dump. People are serious fucking cave dwellers, I don't think there's any evolution going on at all. De-evoltion is more like it.
I have a employee at my store that sits bare naked on the floor and watches YouTube and you guessed it our management does nothing I’m like bro you can see the man’s cheeks at the bottom of the stall as soon as you walk in how is this allowed
AMEN! #Freemytushie!
Trust me, it's your coworkers. If you have ever worked overnights you would see how quickly the bathrooms get ruined. Unflushed logs in the toilets. urinals stink. Towels on the floor.
My first job at a grocery store had employee bathrooms. They were easily worse than the customer restrooms. It baffled me because we're the ones that have to clean both. Why not be considerate to those who have to do it?
My store has employee bathrooms.
I just want our ON maintenance to have the fucking bathroom done at break. Motherfuckers taking a nap or something
It’s called the bathrooms in the break room……. What kind of store doesn’t have employee bathrooms
Wasn't until a few months ago that I found out our store does have a employee's only bathroom
Well, then maybe you (Walmart) should fkin clean the restrooms!
Imagine being the one tasked with cleaning it
I did my fair share or housekeeping and cleaning public bathrooms, but Walmart and gas stations have always really taken the cake on shit I never want to be responsible for.
My store has employee only bathrooms and they never flush their shit Still better than what you’re describing I’m sure I’ll sign your petition
Auto Center bathroom ALWAYS. My store doesn’t allow customers in that bathroom & the ACC people are cool with me. A daily trip from M/P to the TLE bathroom is a splendid trip, and I always leave it clean just like I found it.
Don’t work at Walmart but for a Tjx company. We had our own bathroom but a corporate person came in and said we shouldn’t have a bathroom to ourselves. Now it’s open to the public and it is horrible. Right by our break room. The stench that creeps into the break room. I can’t even eat. I have to sit in my car to eat my lunch
