05.01 - 05.09 - 2711 miles in 9 days

After almost 4 month I spent wonderful 9 days with my Flora! She is the biggest treasure in my life!
I am so lucky she loves me and I love her too! Wow, such an incredible feeling when you meet your loved one after four months and I felt her between my arms again. Best feeling ever!

03.07 - 04.30 - First Walmart experience until inventory

The reason I did not update my blog for a long time is because I simply didn't have time and/or energy to do so.
I started my Walmart career at Manchester, CT as the backroom assistant manager. The situation I got myself into was challenging. This was the most challenging job of my life so far. As the person who is in charge of the backroom operation I have to make sure that whatever comes into the building gets unloaded on time, stored properly in the building and picked to the salesfloor at a nice speed of flow. I cannot write more about it, however, I probably could write a whole book about my first two months at Walmart.
I work 4 days on and 2 days off. Before inventory my schedule was two times 8-8 and two times 8-5. On my last day I went to the movie theater with Attila every time.
After my second rotation I was so tired I fell asleep on the movie:)
Basically I spent my two days recovering from the four days, I did simple things like doing my laundry, cooking and baking, grocery shopping and fishing a couple of times.

Here are some pictures until May 1st:

02.17 - 03.07 - ASM Bence

I've successfully taken my assistant manager trainee exam on the last day of the class and also earned my certified food safety manager certificate.
The 8 weeks training was so great it is hard to describe how much I learnt about Walmart and the retail business operation. I've met wonderful people on the class, eaten incredible amount of food.
I gained at least 10-15 pounds of weight because of my extensive restaurant visits.
It is hard to capture everything that happened to me after 3 month looking back but again it was a great feeling when I became a legit assistant manager at Walmart.


Some examples of my special diet:)














This was the material for the exam. Over 2400 pages
