zil Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 1) It's guaranteed to take longer than you thought. 2) You're guaranteed to come out with more than you intended. 3) There's a 7.31% chance you may never make it back out again. 4) Despite the fact that you're sweating by the time you approach the exit, your stay does not count as "exercise".

Vooorrrrt, do we need to call your bishop? (It's been known for ages that we might oughta call @NightSG's bishop, except he probably already knows....) 3 hours ago, LiterateParakeet said: 20 cash registers but only 3 cashiers, a) I think they're hoping you'll pick up candy, magazines, and / or weird, brightly colored objects which have no easily identified purpose. b) By the time yoo get to a cash register, they're pretty sure you're not gonna leave all the stuff in your cart behind, so why expend more money to speed your departure? c) Given (a) and (b), why pay more for the sort of employee who shows up for their shift?

NeuroTypical Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Walmart has good things for cheap. They also have a lot of cheap shoddy things for cheap, but you can learn the difference. I've seen (and occasionally interacted with) interesting people at WalMart. Friendly guy wearing a pistol wanting to talk about baseball. Teens in full costume when it's not Halloween. One of the best stories I have to tell happened to me at Walmart: Quote WalMart experience a few months ago: Little girl, maybe 5-6, alone and scared. Only I made eye contact with her, so she came towards me, then backed away (probably because, big creepy guy at WalMart). I got down on one knee, asked her name (it was Ashley), asked if something was wrong (she didn't know where her mommy was), and tried to assure her that we could find her mom and it would be ok. Take her to customer service? Not an option - it was right next to the front door. No employees to be seen. I finally got the attention of the first female I saw - young woman maybe in her early 20's, full of piercings and extreme style. "Can you help Ashley?" I said, pointing to the little girl, "She's lost her mommy - do you know where she is?" After a look of vague annoyance, she took pity. Not sure if pity on Ashley, or pity on the poor creepy guy who was about an inch away from getting in trouble for talking to a little girl at a WalMart. She said "Come on sweetie, let's take you to customer service", and Ashley immediately ran (half to her, half away from me,) grabbed her hand and they walked off. I decided to just stand where I was and count silently to 30 and see if I got tazed. At around 15, I heard panicked mommy yelling for Ashley an aisle over. I headed through the aisles trying to say "we found her" loudly enough for her to hear, but not so loud it caused a scene. She rounded the corner, looked at me, and drew back as if her worst fears were being realized - some big creepy guy at a WalMart knew more about her daughter's whereabouts than she did. I said "We found Ashley - a young lady is taking her to customer service", and pointed. She turned and ran that way, I followed and saw the joyful/tearful reunion. Got to share a look with the pierced girl about how dumb the world is. I dunno. I try to drum up some outrage about how my gender and body shape made life harder for everyone, but I can't seem to actually get outraged. This is the way the world is. Got bigger things to be outraged over. Ashley's fine, I didn't get maced, my wife didn't have to bail me out of anywhere, everything worked out. Thanks pierced girl! classylady, DesertLily, zil and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Godless Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 This was my Wal Mart experience the other day. That's an employee driving what appears to be a princessmobile. She passed us three times in three different parts of the store. We finally realized her purpose when our son excitedly pointed and yelled "CAR! CAR!" Nice try, Wal Mart. Nice try.
