the only thing i like about walmart is its open 24 hours (for those who have a problem keeping a normal sleeping pattern like regular people) and they have the general use paints like flat and gloss black i use a lot of.
i hate the fact half the city crams itself into these super centers all at once i might add. i hate the fact 3/4 of the people in walmart act as thought they are the only ones there shopping by walking down the middle of an aisle browsing through products as though they were on a stroll in the park on a sunny warm day in the springtime and are completely oblivious to the fact they are preventing anyone from getting past them. lets not get started on those who simply walk down aisles as though they dont see you and refuse to move over a little as they walk past you and bump into you and then give YOU a look like YOU are an a-hole and they were simply minding their own business until YOU rammed into them like a jerk.
shopping is done but the fun doesnt stop there! you only have a few items, a couple bottles of paint, some chips, whatever else. you're in the 20 items or less lane and guess who's in front of you? an ignorant person who has a selective reading problem as evidence by glancing into their basket and seeing it probably has 50 items easily. what compounds the anger is they look at you, they know what you're seeing in their cart and then give you a "what are you gonna do about it?" look and they never look at you again. if its not that its the person who waits until the chasier scans every item and gives them the total THEN they pull out the checkbook and proceed to take five minutes writing a check. this doesnt include the time it takes for the cashier to check their ID write extra information on the check and then waits for it to clear. apparently pulling out your checkbook BEFORE the cashier is done and writing things like walmart and your signature on it is out of the question. in fact it must be a federal law as i have yet to see ANYONE write on the check before the total is given. the punishment for doing so must be steep, like a platoon of marines comes out of no where and guns you down like a mangy rabid dog and leaves your corpse to rot and to serve as a reminder to the next person who dares write on their check before the total is given much less pull out the check book before the total is given.
how about this? the person who decides to buy a item that isnt bought every day, like an electronic item, and it doesnt scan. they punch in the numbers, still isnt working. then they have to call for a manager to help them figure this out. the manager who BTW is helping about 2 or 3 cashiers ahead of you so you get to wait even longer.
