FoodPRO - Order Selector Realistic Job Preview 

I love watching these videos when I’m down because it makes me realize my life ain’t that bad

I'm a selector at Hill and Markes in Amsterdam, NY... we have a much better system... were paid hourly and the supervisors actually step in to check all the pallets set down on the dock.. instead of the selectors putting stickers on themselves... easily thwarts errors and allows selectors to work much quicker... Also, thank god we have an automated pallet wrapper... I could not wrap pallets by hand like that all the time... I get dizzy easily

Just don't be intimidated by making Your numbers at first. The company will be most impressed by a lack of damaged product and a low error ratio. The numbers will come as You get used to the Job. The most important thing is be respectful to the guys who already work there. It's actually a pretty social job. Other things like comfortable safety shoes, and bending properly will help You. Other than that there's no real experience needed! FLANAGAN FOODSERVICE wishes You luck!

If my company did a drug test there would be nobody left!

Ha :), I love the blunt honesty in this video. You really do have to want to do this type of work. I work for a Walmart DC. Order-filled for a year and a half. Picked anywhere from 1700-2200 cases a night in temps from 40-100+ degrees. One trip (meaning two pallets on a double-jack) could be between 300 to 400 cases if you where to go down the canned food aisles. Don't know about other warehouses, but we moved MUCH quicker than the people in this video. Had to. Fast-paced walk the whole 10 hours. No stops except for break. Even now, as a truck-loader, much quicker.

I make 1,200-1,500 a week! After taxes. This Job is for the athletic type. I personally find the job fun and challenging. I help develop other guys around me into more efficient selectors. Making us a stronger unit. Yes i have a higher education. Multiple trades in the construction field. But this is the type of work i enjoy the most. If i had to do an office job my entire life i would eventually jump off the damn building on my lunch break. Lol. Order selecting is the best job ive ever had. Hands down.

Been a selector at associated foods warehouse in Utah for 5 months, your body gets used to it and you build a rhythm and lift safely. It's not a dream job but the concept is easy, the labor is hard sometimes, and you can make alot of money.

The thing about errors is sometimes it's not your fault. It's someone else, or the customer throwing you under the bus for their own incompetence or greed.

Ive worked in various warehouses and gotta admit order selector jobs are fucken wack..backbone of the whole company and way underappreciated.treated like the bottom of the barrel.its sad to see how people let their egos thrive above them and ego trip on how much work they push out .honestly they dont give two shits about you.keep slaving away i guess smh

Ryan Fry this is exactly what im doing hahah back pain isnt the word

They work you till you tap out lmao

FoodPRO; just a suggestion, voccollect makes picking a hundred times easier! It makes picking hands free (no papers/stickers) and is relatively error free

I work in a dairy storage, yummy! The hardest part for me is working at night and the cold. The rest of the job is fun.

They never had a layoff. LMAO at that. People quit or get terminated from these jobs every fuccin' week. That's considered a layoff to me.

these food service companies are the most difficult variety of order picking. The mixed cases can be extremely difficult to make a stable pallet (mainly dry product) the hours are unpredictability long

crazy how slack safety is there OMG,so glad to be at sysco.Some seriously outdated equipment,even the stuff we use is outdated but light years ahead of this

I do warehouse work and its modern slavery

At my warehouse you have to pull 225 an hour. Once you get up to where you pull 225 an hour you top out at $18.90/hr. Im at 180/hr right now. We basically pull 1800-2000 cases a night.

once you know how to do it...it's easy. ...just gotta eat good. .sleep good for the long hours of work

we do an average of 200cs/hour we are using the crown triples

i been doing this for over 10yrs i gotta go to a lift full time or im out

Smary and final pays17 starting off and incentive for high performance

Psh i work at kroger distribution center we pick 4-550 an hour cases... We work 12 hour shifts start out at 15.50 once hired goes up to 22 an hour after 24 months union... 20x harder job then when i was at walmart distrubtion but pays twice as much.

I work at awg and its hard work!!! Good pay though!!!

Nice foodpro gets riders.

Piece rate is the stupidest system I've seen in any job. It literally pushes people to put garbage out the door. Notice, none of these people are actually looking at what they're skidding. That's the "Idgaf it's in a box."

Wow, I know this video is 4 years old, but there are several problems I see with this. First Off, that warehouse is very disorganized, pallet piles everywhere, second off, the company could make much more money by going paperless and using headsets. Third, those front-end riders are slow and old... And not paying per hour? Lame. I started off full time at 18.00 an hour at Supervalu, we don't get docked pay for picking wrong cases, and the pay caps at 25.00 (with incentive pay and as much time-and-a-half OT as you want on Sunday's, up to 8 hours OT.) I know the warehouse I'm at isn't the best, but it's soooo much better than this one. And no, this isn't the hardest job out there. It's relatively easy for the most part once you get the hang of it.

I usually average 2,300-3,000 cases a night 😂 it's easy asf tbh my record for the week is 12,775 cases 💪 (it was a fat check )

Most i see on comments on here is at most 2200 try 400 cases an hour at around 2400 to 2700 case count you must hit. Save a lot DC top pay 26.75 an hour 3 month training only 1month for me already at 280 an hour that shit is pretty intense that's your cardio

I pull about 1300 cases a night but its on a double jack with 8 stops per pallet, some runs are just a pain in the ass and drivers bitch if anything is inconvenient. I pulled a 13 hr shift last night

Order selector , you're basically a work mule they will push you replace you easy put a fresh body in there till they use the next guy up.

at my job rate is 200 cases an hour and we pull about

reminds me of chef warehouse i wonder has this company moved to computers or voice pick they still messing with labels..lol

I work at Flanagan foodservive in Ontario, but If I had no experience and watched this video I would choose another job! This job is so easy it's crazy! The toughest part is stacking the pallets in the proper order but with a little time anybody who can touch their toes can do this job! I guess this video is realistic but this place seems miserable. FLANAGAN FOODSERVICE is family owned and FOODPRO sounds corporate and maybe that's the difference.

I just quit my selecting job because it was a mess at my job. I was working at an Orlando DC (Not Foodpro, it was somewhere else) and it was just a huge mess. Sweeping and bailing for the 2 weeks after orientation. Then they have the balls to say *okay you’re starting night shift good luck*. Bull fucking shit. So I actually spoke to the warehouse manager and told him I got zero training in the freezer or the produce and they’re wanting to dump me in night. So they gave me training, but the trainer didn’t teach me shit. He didn’t give me anything to use. Then after that debacle, I thought I could handle night shift in either area by myself. (I’m 18 so I never picked before). But haha. Never picked before+ Little to no training=Them bitching to me about my numbers each week. They literally had me in the office every week saying *oH YouR nUmbErS ArE HorRibUHL. BRIng tHeM uP oR youRe FiReD By MaY sEConD. Lmao. And better yet, listen to this, one day when I wasn’t working, I was injured so badly to the point I had to spend a day in the hospital and was told by the hospital. By certified medical doctors. To stay off my feet for the next 3 days. But they didn’t understand shit. They counted them as occurrences. I got *Oh If yOu gET AnOtHer OccuRrEnCE, yOuRe fiReD*. Lmao. It’s something called an injury that’s not my fault. But yet, I’m treated like it’s my fault and I had the control over it. I quit the next day they said that.

Dude was 2 inches from severing his Achilles tendon.

I do 2000 cases a night put the work in and you'll make good money made 35k part time at sysco 20-30 hrs a week

At 520 look at his hat your my idol " your lifting heavy shit" errrr

sticker on the short side bud

I work at Logistics in Motion and I hate it, my percentage is really low to the point where I can get laid off easily, but I'm just training though jajajaja

12 hour shifts

Some of those pallets are stacked like shit, it wouldn’t take much for a pallet to totally lose its load.

Just amazing, I already love this company. You know from the beginning what to expect and what is it exactly that you have to do, well done FoodPro for honesty. Slaves?...well, as long as it is your choice before taking this job, I don't think so. Also, being physically demanding it is not a bad thing...it keeps you in shape:)

I guess safety isn't a priority in this warehouse. The dude coming off the EPJ almost severed his ankle.

exactly it pays well long hours company treats u like shit

These people break so many rules on how to use the EPJ.

I pick 175 an hour and 15.50. Im trying to get up to 225 cases an hour to make 19.35

I have to average 250 cases an hour in produce every week ....the pay is ok but idk how much longer I'll stay o.o

pfff she said 800-1000 a night. them guys got it easy. Ours ranges from 1700-2200 a night here at H.T Hackney. We use raymond pallet trucks. A lot faster, more rugged, more updated trucks, and easy to use. Our pick rate is 125/hr and I pick 150-160/hr. If we had incentive, I would be making bank

Im so glad our warehouse has the voccalect system. This label shit is ridiculous

I work at sysco we use 3 pallets at a time. This job looks like its for old people lmao

good if the place you work doesn't push the envelope too hard and force everyone to either work like dogs, or make up delays.

I see lots of things done in this video that we are not allowed to do at the warehouse in which i work. walking over forks, putting chemicals and food on the same pallets, tennis shoes. etc etc.

lol if you want to pull 1500 cases you better be wearing sneakers and shorts. you gotta be running!

I need se selector wi tugger, plis,

1300 cases, that's nothing. Work at a Wal-Mart DC, on just 3-4 trips you can easily pick around 400 cases of canned goods each trip.

I work at atlas logistics this job is hard but if you stick with it you will be satisfied with your money

I can tell they're not on engineered labor standards. Easy money...

the narrator sounded like a real charming gal

no safety shoes in a warehouse?????

This is the worst lol We're on $30 hourly rate and goes up for arvo and night shifts everyone come to aus

Music

They put long working hours on tough job like this.

Go to college.

They really lack safety at this Warehouse I drive a stock picker, TSP, rc and Pallet truck along with a reach fork truck daily they should only jump off when the pallet truck is stopped..

Publix, produce...ranked worst warehouse to select at. u guys would last 1 week lol.

I fucking hattttttteeeeeeeee stickers

This jobs cake if you like the work out.

Old ass system that they got

rookies

Out of shape ???? 😠
