Explain what you mean. Are you saying to literally do that? Or is it more like "shove off", Mick? What has led you this response? I don't want to make assumptions of your plight.

Don't make fun of their plight, its obvious by their behavior that they are mentally handicap and are trying to cope with their shitty lives.

I'll spend like an hour on one section of the store trying to clean it up only to come back towards the end of my shift and find it a complete wreck again.
I meant to ask you this...

Does Wal-Fart still print their employee schedules on dot-matrix paper that looks like it came straight of the Commodore 64 era?

They did that shit when I was there and then would hang said schedules behind glass in a dimly-lit hallway. Basically made them impossible read. I once showed up for a 10:00 shift at 1:00 because I couldn't see the damn thing.

I found plenty of annoyances while working there.

We got rid of paper schedules entirely. You have to access them either online or via one of the computers at work.

I've got a pretty regular shift, and when my schedule gets changed up I usually just work my regular shift anyway. It's pretty much always a mistake on the manager's part when they change it, so nobody ever minds when I show up like usual.

Also, I see plenty of people hop on those electric carts just to goof around. 20 somethings having races on the things at 2am and generally causing trouble, etc.

Thinking about it, most of the oddball stuff I can recall just involved college students doing what I assume are fraternity initiation rituals or something.

I have a friend who works in the electronics section. Two years ago on Black Friday two guys pulled knives on one another while fighting over a portable USB drive. Not one of the larger 100+ GB ones either. We're talking one of those little sticks that you can put on a keychain. He said it was bizzarly intense :shock:

Last year they had him handing out video games and saw fit to give him two bulking body guards for protection. I swear to you they had to be over 7ft tall each. Seeing his skinny @$$ 5 1/2 ft frame wedged between those two (smiling) behemoths was hysterical. He told me he's never felt so safe :lol:

I went there today and purchased 8lbs. of frozen fruit for $12.98 (I think). Felt like winning the fruit lottery.
I like their frozen fruit. It's quite yummy. I mixed up a bowl of it yesterday and had it for lunch (after it thawed).

If you were a First Responder, MrPopo, they'd have bled out when you arrived on the scene ;).

Excuse me? What exactly am I "cooling". I didn't curse. I didn't make inaccurate comments w/o reading the thread. I didn't suggest someone edited their comments.

This was meant as a thread about the wacky stuff we see at Wal-Mart. Nothing more. Dave, as usual, took it somewhere else.
