Denied AFTER Hired.

So, I applied to a night stocker position at my local Walmart. They posted the job on Indeed and I applied an hour after it was posted. I applied November 26th, I called and spoke to the hiring manager directly and informed them I was EXTREMELY motivated to start work.

Hiring manager says "well if you can come in Thanksgiving night, I'll have you do orientation with you shift supervisor." Bang on, I cut my Thanksgiving dinner short to drive 35 minutes to my orientation.

I arrive at Walmart, all the doors are closed, nobody is attending front of store and nobody is answering the service phone. I decide to risk opening the front door manually and setting off the proximity alarm. Door opens, I'm in the clear, I make my way to the back of store to find my manager Rob.

Rob doesn't know who I am, why I'm there, who sent me the information to arrive then and told me I had to leave or he'll call the police.

Next day, I speak with the same hiring manager (Ruby) and she apologizes for the miscommunication. She explains that I will need to fill out all the required paperwork prior to my orientation. She can still process my job offer and schedule me for orientation while the paperwork is processing.

Fast forward two weeks, I sent in all the required paperwork for onboarding employment and was awaiting my background check to clear. My background check cleared December 8th, Walmart denied it and requested it be done again. My background cleared AGAIN today.

Keep in mind I was already offered and had formally accepted my employment offer and pay rate/schedule for this position. Ten minutes ago I was sent an email stating that I was not selected for employment because there are "more qualified" individuals.

I'm honestly just so tired, this life is just exhausting. Walmart, eat shit.
