Walmart here I come!

The amount of time since last test is not that important. You would need to factor in lifestyle changes since you first tested negative.

If you want an inexpensive tool to give you a good idea whether or not you may have sleep apnea, you can use a wearable pulse oximeter while you sleep. If your blood oxygen levels are dropping below 88%, especially for long periods of time, then it would be a good idea to see your doctor and consider a sleep study to confirm. Anyone with sleep apnea will see their blood oxygen levels drop while they sleep. The more severe the apnea, the lower the blood oxygen levels will go. Hypoxia of your body tissue occurs when your blood oxygen levels remain below 88%. Over time, this can cause major irreparable harm to major body organs, especially to the heart, which has to work harder due to lower blood oxygen levels.

Here is a link to a device I recommend. Besides using for symptoms of sleep apnea, it can help determine other underlying medical problems at an early stage as well.

It could be that he has only worked for bottom feeder carriers with high turnover who do not scrutinize applicants as much as Walmart. Either way, he is one of the few I have seen on this site ignore the advice given.

 

No, I was siding with you, I should've said, if you opened ur door you'd only see my stacks. I never did, not one of those floor sitters either, or a 6' shift stick/stripper pole. I've seen guys actually stand on their running boards looking backwards AS they're backing in. I just don't get it.

 

Total B.S. I've bent over backwards trying to help you with this situation. Quit wasting our time with your deaf ears. You have an excuse for everything. A major "Poor me" complex. Buy the way, How is swift stricter than Wal-Mart? Troll on. Georgear1084 and TomofTX are dead on right.

This is just so perfect. Well said.

 

So you pass your phone interview?

 

yes buddy i was going crazy answering the 7 questions

You and I share a common thread in our journey to working as a driver for Walmart. We both had to prove we did not have a disqualifying medical condition. This is why it is easier for you and I to better understand just how tough Walmart can be when it comes to the medical qualifications to be a driver here. My circumstances occurred about 2 months after I started here. I experienced some pain in my right leg and hip after driving an older 2007 truck with a bad seat and Walmart took it that the surgery I had on my right leg in the past was the problem, when it really wasn't. It took a long time and a lot of medical tests to prove my case. No other carrier I ever worked for, including 7 years with UPS Freight, was ever as fussy about any medical issues as was Walmart. This is why I try to give advice to those who may fall into the same circumstances. Whether they choose to accept the advice is a different story!

 

Bro, don't get me wrong,I still wish you the best. It's just so frustrating seeing someone headed towards heartbreak. I told you I was sent home for the neck size reason and I'm a foot taller than you, and weigh less. I don't have apnea, I knew I didn't, but that's not the issue. You have to have a test showing you don't have it. It's stupid that you do, my safety manager told me 70% of our apnea guys don't fit the neck size/over weight criteria, but it's the law of the land. Play the game. Wal-Mart will give you the life of financial security you desire, but there are rules and guidelines to follow. Many with zero tolerance. That's the game. Play the game, achieve your goals. Ask yourself Will I do what it takes, for me and my family to reach what I want? A $200 test or a free call to your hr manager to see what that particular D.C.'s policy as to whom pays for the test is not a big price to pay. Every one on here is pushing for you, but unlike other employers, you can't skirt around this stuff. Don't ask, don't try. Be proactive and get off ur rear and seize the moment. We're here with our hands out to welcome you, but only you can cross the finish line. Come on buddy, we're here waiting. Go above and beyond. Shut up and DO IT! Do you have what it takes? Earned, never given.
