People no longer have manners or respect.

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Speelman has been twice widowed and started greeting at the store when she was 90. She retired at 95, but came back at 97 after her only living son died and continues to work an average of 34 hours a week.

Sounds a lot like my grandma. She tried to "retire" several times in her late 80's but "those young girls just couldn't catch on ". God Bless this woman - and should she have the good fortune to be around next year I hope she takes "Black Friday" as a holiday.

This store is one of the closest to Milwaukee’s central city. It’s not in a bad area, but is very convenient to some bad areas, so it gets some rough customers.

Walmart shouldn’t have centenarians checking customer’s receipts as they leave the store. If they have a policy of checking receipts, the should have security people handle it.

My mentally challenged cousin has worked at Walmart for decades and will retire in a few with a nice pension. No one trashes Walmart around me.

Why can a 100 year old get a job, when there are a lot of 20-somethinings staying home and playing on the computer all day?

Walmart is partly to blame for this. They know from past experience that there have been confrontations with irate customers at the exit door.

Maybe Walmart should re-think their policy of having old ladies accuse people of being thieves. Just a thought.

The scumbag who pushed her should be charged with felony battery.

Customer Shoves 100-year-old Wis. Walmart Greeter

A Greeter greets you when you come into the store. A security guard check you bags on the way out to insure your not a shoplifter.

Perhaps, Walmart should reconsider using 100 year old ladies as security guards.

Mrs. Speelman is obviously an amazing, admirable woman. What an attitude! Even in the midst of a story about the actions of an uncivilized brute, there’s real hope: Americans can and will do for themselves, with pride and dignity.
