Yeah, I was working off (less) sleep depravation when I wrote that too. If I came across as a pedantic a------, I appolgize. It's remarkably obscure information for anyone under the age of (I guess) about 35 though, so the intent was education, not nitpicking.lax4life said:
I used to wonder why, when I went to Walmart, all the employees looked so dejected and hateful and acted like they just didn't give a shit.
Then, because I was really hurting for a job, I worked at a Walmart for six months. It is the worst job I ever had. It was just horrific. Now I completely understand why Walmart employees are some of the saddest/angriest employees ever.
I swear, when they are deciding who gets to be a manager, they just fuckin have a raffle or something. There is no other way to explain the sheer lack of qualifications these fucktards have.

Walmart's one of those places that you start working there, and then they OWN YOUR ASS. My brother's girlfriend's lucky she's insane and has no problem firing people. She's management now. =Dirishdelinquent said:Am I the only one who doesn't understand Wal-Mart hatred? I don't understand why a single store has so much animosity directed towards it. Yes, there is evidence of them mistreating their employees, but that's not what seems to be the issue.
Also, Wal-Mart being out of stock of certain items, especially high-selling ones like Modern Warfare 2, is no reason to hate them...Best Buy was arbuably just as likely to have been sold out of it.
Oh well, I'm a Canadian...anything that gets us out of the frigid cold ca't be too bad
That, and they force many, many, many smaller businesses out of... well, business.
It's the McDonalds of stores. You go in feeling normal but missing something and come out feeling raged from the idiocy, yet slightly dazed from the unhealthy odours.
I can only imagine how it was yesterday, on Boxing Day... Ugh.

one time at walmart climbed onto the bike rack and jumped it to the ball pit, we were thrown out, but it was awesome.
also, one time my dad wanted to buy a kite for me and my bro to use, but walmart does not carry kites for softy reasons, my dad retorted with, "Fine ill just get a shotgun, pack of grapefruit, and a 6 pack of beer, and have fun with my kids that way." oddly enough, we weren't kicked out for that.

Seeing as how this thread is basically just everyone spouting off what they think of Wal Mart, let me just say I worked at one and it was actually a good experience. Pretty good pay, good hours, relatively nice people. My local Wal Mart is a dump, however, and there seems to be a severe lack of customer assistance and the store looks like hell. They actually just leave everything in the cardboard boxes, and cut the face off to display their products. When you walk in, it looks like a thrift store. A sea of poorly cut cardboard boxes and pallets and crooked shelves.
I actually transferred to this one and tried working there for a while. It lasted two months, and it was bogus. I was the only white kid who worked nights, and would constantly get picked on because of my skin color, and because I tried to work too hard and people thought I was making it worse for everyone else, like I was trying to show them up.

the only times i ever purchased something at walmart was for WoW time cards and a knife, i like that knife, but still hate the store... nearly as much as i hate costco, or any other place fat people shop at...
well i dont like wallmarts game section but when ever i go in there i mess around and like this one time i was playing in a rubber ball cage thing when i had trouble getting out and the thing fell over and i was really scared i would hit someone so i hid out behind the game section then some old hag came up to me and started talking to me like i was retarded then she asked me the stupidest question ever she asked me how did they treat me in the mental inisituit so i just said F*** off but then went and told an emploee i got kicked out
I had a similar thing happen to me in a staples (it`s an office store in canada, they also sell computers and some video games. Once again I don`t know where everyone here lives so explaining helps) anyways, I was killing time looking at computers before I had to go to work. A couple feet away from me was a salesman talking to a couple of customers about a computer, he really didn`t know what he was talking about, after he leaves they stand around for a few minutes and then ask me as I was still lingering, I really need a new monitor but can`t justify paying for one. Anyways as I was explaining the difference between 64-bit and 32-bit and a few other minor things, graphics and such. They knew a surprising amount but were simply questioning whether they could play certain games. Before I could finish (I recommended a much cheaper system than the salesman) I was asked to leave, by the same salesman. Haven`t been back since.pimppeter2 said:

Story : When I was in walmart shopping for shirts the old man greeter they had gave me a "talkin to" because all the shirts I was looking at didn't have pockets. "You kids, where are you going to put your pens?!" And they are always out of the bullets I want, and if they get any in they are gone in 2 days... I guess its because they have the best prices and there is an ammo shortage in the US.

I don't like stores that sell EVERYTHING for the most part. But what I have a real problem with is BJ's. Because like my fiends and I went in there to play hide n go seek (one of our past times lol) and I felt bad for just using the store like that, and I saw a giant pack of eclairs for like $6. So I grabbed it and tried to buy it on the way out. Turns out you can ONLY buy stuff there if you register for a BJ's card. I wanted the eclairs, so I asked if I could sign up right there (because there are many BJ's around where my grandparents live, and I visit them a lot) but the lady said "No. You must submit a forum..." and lots of other bullshit that I shouldn't have to do to buy a desert. I had a drivers license and a student I.D., so it's not like they needed some kind of weird information.. But anyway I'm moderately wealthy, and I sort of see Wallmart and BJ's as poor kid's stores anyways so I tend to stay out of them, unless you like to play games in them =D
You must have actual "space" to put more useful/pleasing things don't you?Furburt said:
I hate the fact that my area has TWO fucking Walmarts when the total population is somewhere around 150,000
