It's an interesting project, now all they need are some good jokes.

I like the line about not being unionized.
"Do you know what I see the workers doing? Working!"

Great line.

"I like the line about not being unionized. "Do you know what I see the workers doing? Working!""

They must shop at different Wal-Marts than the ones near me!

At my local Wal-Mart I'm first greeted at the door by - well let's just say the "intellectually challenged" or granny and grandpa, none of which know what year it is live alone where I might find what I’m looking for. But hey, at least they smile (however vacantly) and at least they try.

As for the rest of the employees – insolent, rude and or uninterested best describes my experiences but then that can be said for a lot of chain stores now days.

Wal-Mart has some good prices on a few things but they also have a lot of cheap products quality-wise, in other words – I wouldn’t expect to pay much some of the cheesy inferior crap they sell.

Sorry I’m not against Wal-Mart, I just don’t like it. I like Target better – cleaner, more organized, good quality at a good price. The help is sort of lame there too but not as bad as what I’ve seen at Wal-Mart.

And the high-school girls who work as cashiers at Tar-jhay have all their teeth!

I'm no Wal-Mart hater, but I'd have to agree with your assessment. I think it's hit-and-miss though. The Wal-Mart near our home isn't bad at all - employees are typically helpful though the checkout lines take forever (not the sharpest tools running the registers.) Other Wal-Marts in the area are terrible...It does save us a lot on our groceries, but that's about all we buy there.

Target is always my first stop, but I have found things I needed in Wal-mart that I couldn't find in Target. My reluctance to go to Wal-mart first isn't about the store or the employees, but it is, as as my husband put it, "having to shop with Wal-mart people", which is our new tag for what we used to call "Trailer Trash". Sticky fingerprints on the merchandise, narrow corridors chock full of high-calorie snacks with big, fat momma and her brood blocking the aisles. Not fun.
