Default My Walmart Job

So I finally landed a job as a Wal-Mart greeter, which is a good find for many retiree. Unfortunately I lasted less than a day.


About two hours into my first day on the job a very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance. Per my greeter training manual I said pleasantly, “Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?”

The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, “Hell no, they ain’t twins. The oldest one is 9, and the other one is 7. Why the hell would you think they’re twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?”


So I replied, “I’m neither blind nor stupid, madam. I just couldn’t believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.”


My supervisor said I probably wasn’t cut out for this line of work.

You should have used the "Walter' reply when he was a greeter,

"Welcome to Walmart", get your sh** and get out!!!

When we were living in NJ in the '80s, there were tee shirts that said, "Welcome to New Jersey. Now Go Home!"
