I think that's how all Wal-Marts feel. That's about what mine feels like.

fairywaif 12-09-2011 10:34 PM

It's creepy. I refuse to go except for cheap prescriptions I can't get for that price anywhere else.

TaiyoTsuki 12-09-2011 10:36 PM

I wouldn't go to Wal-Mart even for those if I could help it.

fairywaif 12-09-2011 10:40 PM

If they're free I do. Besides, then it costs them money. *smirk*

TaiyoTsuki 12-09-2011 11:24 PM

They also seem to hire the dumbest people they can find...and then treat 'em like crap.

GrannyJ 12-10-2011 03:58 PM

It sounds like you both have some very bad WalMarts.

I am constantly returning things to my Walmart. Since I go so often, I know I can just buy something and then if I decide it's wrong, I will just return it.
They have no problem with returns at all!

fairywaif 12-10-2011 07:04 PM

I'm glad that yours are so much better! It could just be the area I guess. *shrugs*

They're great where I am. At least mostly. They've been playing with their employees schedules and then firing them if they can't do what they're told.

TaiyoTsuki 12-11-2011 12:17 AM

Can't do that where I'm from. Pretty much everyone who works at Wal-Mart (with exceptions, of course) are lazy bums and/or girls who got pregnant in high school. My cousin works there though, and from what she told me it's not her dream job.....

Glass 12-11-2011 06:33 PM

Well it would be mighty sad if it were her dream job, don't you think? llol.

GrannyJ 12-11-2011 07:19 PM

Yes. I remember years ago when my step daughter was working while she was going to high school.

She wanted a job to get some extra money.
One of the jobs she took was a Taco Bell, another was packing groceries.

She said one good thing was it showed her she didn't want to be doing that for the rest of her life.

TaiyoTsuki 12-11-2011 07:42 PM

@ Saro: That it would.

I don't want to work at Wal-mart if I can help it. As for Taco Bell...one of my old NJROTC mates used to work there, and according to him Taco Bell isn't particularly good when it comes to food preperation and storage. Seeing some of the stuff they did when the customers weren't looking...well, let's just say that when he quit he stopped eating Taco Bell.

My older sister worked at Bed, Bath and Beyond and she said they hired people partly based on looks. :XD

TaiyoTsuki 12-11-2011 08:08 PM

Oy vey...talk about LAME!

fairywaif 12-11-2011 08:17 PM

Technically, it's illegal but it's hard to prove.

TaiyoTsuki 12-11-2011 09:45 PM

...Wow. Gotta just love stuff like that.
Note to self; don't go to Bed, Bath, & Beyond.

fairywaif 12-11-2011 09:48 PM

It might have only been the one she worked at anyways. I don't know. I heard this secondhand. and it was in Michigan.

TaiyoTsuki 12-11-2011 11:22 PM

ah. bed bath & beyond tends to be expensive anyway, so i don't shop there to begin with.

Glass 12-12-2011 06:44 AM

They cost a lot, for simple products which one can get in many other places, or make one's self. :)

GrannyJ 12-12-2011 04:27 PM

I never shop at Bed Bath and Beyond unless I have a handful of the 20% off coupons. They have an expiration date on them, but the stores all take them anyway, even if they have "expired".

fairywaif 12-12-2011 04:44 PM

I don't shop there either, although there is a number of products from there sitting in my bathroom from when she got her employee's discount. :lol:

GrannyJ 12-12-2011 07:09 PM

I did order a mixer from them for my step daughter.
It was easier to do because they would ship it for me.

fairywaif 12-12-2011 08:09 PM

Yes, shipping is very convenient. We need beaters for our mixer... I want Christmas jello with homemade whipped cream!

TaiyoTsuki 12-12-2011 08:58 PM

Hey there all ^^

fairywaif 12-12-2011 09:10 PM

Hey Taiyo. Anything new?
