I despise walmart. Its like taxes, you hate it, but it seems to be necesarry. I was in there this morning when they did their little motivational morning talk....

Never has a company done so much research into keeping their employees happy and then fucked them up and driven them into the ground. they were one of the first companies to refer to their employees (yes EMPLOYEES!) as associates. They arent your friends, they work for you. They are employed by you, not associated with you. Assholes.

And hooray for the door greeters. Nothing like an akward moment of being stared down by an old person who doesnt want to say hi, then watching their eyes dart away when you look back at them. Some are nice, and i get a kick out of it when they give Lily a sticker (she goes nuts), but most of the time, it makes things uncomfortable the second you walk in.

Bree worked for walmart for a year. One of the "special needs" people they employed as a cart fetcher took a liking to her, and every visit after that we were accosted by him coming over and shouting "HI BREE! HOW ARE YOU! ARE YOU STILL WORKING AT WAL MART!" No offense but jesus christ....

"They have LCD TVs for HALF the other places!" Do they have sony, panasonic or any other brands that get great reviews? No, just some not quite off brand? Damn.

They are also magnets for white trash. Almost as bad as a dollar store, its not like they are packed wall to wall with the cream of the crop of the human race. Fat bitchy women, skinny bitchy women, screaming kids. And lets not forget the one one town over from me where there are greasy looking middle aged men who stare at little girls like they are strippers....


God i hate walmart...
