The Difference Between Power Washing and Pressure Washing As far as the water pressure is concerned, they both use similar amounts of pressure. How much pressure really just depends on the type of machine; a household unit won’t offer up as much power as an industrial machine. If we’re talking strictly about the types of the machines, there is one key element that differentiates a power washer from a pressure washer: a heating element. Both machines create a powerful stream of high-pressure water, but a power washer also heats up the water. This might seem like a small difference, but it actually makes a huge difference in how each is used. What is Power Washing ?

What is it like working at Walmart?

 Note: Experiences differ from person to person. I was hired as a front end cashier during the summer of 2008. My interview process was very professional and gave me the opinion that I would be a valued employee within the company. I spent the first three days taking various different tests of knowledge about Hazards and Wastes; Alcohol and Tobacco Products; Blood Pathogens; etc. I spent the next seven days as a trainee. The first day I could only watch another Cashier and help bag, but afterwards I was allowed on the register. Initially I thought that I wouldn't like working at Wal-Mart. I was wrong. I won't lie though. I had open availability and asked to be full time from the very beginning; however, I rarely worked more than 32 hours per week unless it was around the holidays. Overall my management team and co-workers treated me well. It was the customers who could be a problem from time to time. I had to deal with getting cussed out and being yelled at on a regular basis.
