I don't know that I would have used hardcore porn but I knew it was coming.

I'd sooner see if I could get the security tape of that guy and the work out tape

That is... I can't believe I just read that.

Anyway reminds me of the time some guys found apparently the largest log they'd ever seen in the toilet bowl in the girls' washroom... they had a photo on a guy's digital camera they showed it to just about everyone with... I felt dumber for knowing them.

The iq of walmart employee's always seemed extremely low to me, one in a small town must be 10x worse.

Wal-Mart consists of

High School kids, College kids,
old retired people,
and people in-between good jobs.

Back in 1991 I actually helped put one together, and worked in the hardware department for about 7 months.

I had 2 bosses. Both would give me different schedules, and BOTH would tell me not to listen to the other's schedule.

I finally had to go to the store manager about it, which only ticked them both off.

The stupidest part of my job was, I worked in hardware and paint. That is I would on occasion have to use the paint mixer for customers.

I was required to wear dress clothes and a tie. None of which Wal-Mart supplied me. (It had to be a WHITE shirt too)

I was buying a new shirt at least once a week because I would eventually get paint on it.

The night manager would stand in front of the registers and pick his ears with his walky talky antenna.

Wal-Mart was almost like a government. It even had it's own propaganda in the workplace.

I wasn't liked by a lot of the managers because I would always make fun of some of the more silly meetings we would have. I wasn't a "team player"

One of the kiss ass supervisors would actually hide behind shelfs peeking through watching me, trying to catch ANYTHING I did wrong.

I busted him on several occasions only to embarrass him, and make him dislike me further.

I always did my job. Never late etc.

We were allowed to leave at night ONLY when our dept was done and clean and "fronted" as they called it.

Well the last hour we was open I would always make sure to do all these things constantly so when the store closed, I could leave.

I guess this was pissing off some employees because they claimed it wasn't fair I got to leave, and they didn't. Nevermind the fact that these people waited till AFTER the store was closed to start straitening up, they were the slowest at doing it.

No store policy came into effect. No one was allowed to leave until the WHOLE store was "fronted" and cleaned. Which lead the lazy ones to start doing NOTHING, because they knew they could get help. Esp the Toy department.

The problem is, sometimes I would work at night, and have to get up EARLY the next morning to work because the idiots don't know how to schedule.

So I would be getting out of there around 12, and having to be back in at 7. I caused a big stink about it, which made everyone think about it and say "Hey, that is messed up, no wonder I am so tired"

Which of course got me a call into the office and I was fired for causing disturbances in the workplace.

I got ahold of the BBB, and told them what was going on, and called a lawyer.

Needless to say I got my job back, and severance pay.

I left shortly after.

Those are the only people who will put up with the crap one has to at that place. It's pathetic how badly a Wal-Mart workier is treated.

You'll see a lot of college students there as well. And retired people.

But yeah... in-between those two groups...
