your next vist to wal-mart (if there is one)

[Maytagmom]

And if this isn't enough

Ironic that I received in my work email this morning: (but not from anyone here)
**********************************************************
Subject: Wal Mart

Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are retired, and Mrs. Fenton
insists her husband go with her to Walmart, but he
gets bored with all the shopping trips.
He prefers to get in and get out, but Mrs. Fenton
loves to browse. Here's a letter sent to Mrs.
Fenton------

Dear Mrs. Fenton,

Over the past six months, your husband has been
causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot
tolerate this behavior and may ban both of you from
our stores. We have documented all incidents on our
video surveillance equipment. All complaints against
Mr. Fenton are listed below.

Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while his spouse was
shopping in Walmart:

1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly
put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.

2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to
go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor
leading to the restrooms.

4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in
an official tone, 'Code 3' in housewares..... and
watched what happened.

5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to
put a bag of M&M's on layaway.

6. September 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign
to a carpeted area.

7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping
department and told other shoppers he'd invite them
in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding department.

8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help
him, he begins to cry and asks, 'Why can't you
people just leave me alone?'

9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera;
used it as a mirror, and picked his nose.

10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting
department, asked the clerk if he knows where the
antidepressants are.

11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously
loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme.

12. December 6: In the auto department, practiced
his "Madonna look" using different size funnels.

13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when
people browse through, yelled "PICK ME!" "PICK ME!"

14. December 21: When an announcement came over the
loud speaker, he assumes the fetal position and
screams "NO ! NO! It's those voices again!!!!"

And last, but not least .....

15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the
door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, "There
is no toilet paper in here!"

Regards,
Walmart

Don't laugh too hard. When I worked in Macy's 34th St. in Manhattan (the BIG one) they had exactly such a problem. The doodle was analyzed and was definitely NOT that of the security dogs that roam at night!

Been there, done that....

When I was in college I worked at Burdine's (now Macy's)Department store in the dressing rooms. Yes, aside from clothes strewn about, someone left us, shall we say, a nasty parting gift. How could someone mistake a dressing room for a toilet? There's no little round hole!?!?!

That would NEVER EVER happen in a Wal-Mart. No one will ever ask you if you need any help. You have to chase them, yes CHASE them to get anything out of them. And most of the time their reply is "Ah Dunno, U GOTTA ax someone in dat depahtment"

Katrina upheaval

The Walmart crap has been going on for years before Katrina but it got even worse after that.

Crap in stores

I worked at a Sears one summer of 2002 in Gainesville GA between jobs in the lawn and garden area. Some old geezer came in from the outside into the mens clothing area. This was caught on security video. Just after he entered the door from the outside he stops in the little foyer area, stands still for a few minutes then starts to shake his leg until a big tootsie roll log fell out of the leg of his pants. He then continued on into the store just like nothing had happened.

eww

He musta not been wearing any undies. People are gross. I have had the displeasure of cleaning a women's bathroom at Schwegmanns. WOMEN, you say men are pigs? Try throwing your pads and baby diapers in the garbage and not all over the floor. Now THAT is gross.

And the little bit of pee that men put on the floor from bad aim is easily mopped away but having to scoop up them dirty diapers and other things.. EWW EWW EWW!

I went to BK for lunch today and when I got my food, "Here ya go" while almost throwing it in my face and walking away as if to say "not git outta here". Wonderful customer service again.

 

[sudsman]

here they just throw it at you.

Publix,Ace Hardware,Whole Foods..

I regularly shop at these stores and the service is second to none. I will say there is a new concept for WalMart called "Neighborhood Market"..I must give credit and say this store is very clean, well stocked and the service is very good. I sure do miss ShopRite and King Kullen from when I lived on Long Island. The "Can Can" sale and double coupons, gotta love em!!
