Shared on Sun, 06/17/2007 - 17:25Certainly I'm not the only one on the site that really dislikes Walmart (hate is a strong word but may apply).
This does raise questions for myself, like why? Price, no-they usually have some of the best prices on items.
Convieniece, no-damn theres a Super Walmart 4 blocks from my house, that rules out selection being a problem too.
Employees? Well you have to be careful to not offend people here, I'm sure most have a relative in some form that
works or has worked there (and likes it). I didnt know any until Darth_Chibius took the job as the wardrobe and hygeine
director for the greeters. Bravo Darth, much improved! I really havent had any employee problems, other than trying to
find one when you need to get a popular item thats not displayed other than 12 feet high on a shelf. Whats up wit dat?
Man their return policy is very liberal, pretty much dont need a reciept to return most items. They do have really crappy
gaming acc. and supply area, definately points deducted there, eh?
It seems odd but I will drive miles out of my way and usually pay more money to avoid going there.........strange.
Maybe others can give their reasons but I think the #1 reason I dont like Walmart is: Checkout. After following the male
ritual of wandering aimlessly around their store, covering much of the same ground far to many times and being there
15-45 minutes longer than you thought it would take-you approach: THE CHECKOUT LINE. Yes this is the part that urks
me, 50 freaking check stations- and 5 are open! You people are retards!!!!!!!!! I guess having the largest profit turned of
any company last year (or some statistic like that), profits are met by conservative labor application. *sigh*
sorry about he cobbled sentences, I suck!
