Tell him it LOOKS like you're standing still, but you're actually multitasking at the speed of light.

You probably sucked at your job and wouldn't quit putting the condoms in the toy aisle. Don't blame them. :)

no they dont... worked there 2 summers, the management treats you like sh1t, and the customers treat you worse...

The worst part of the job is the scheduleing, for example:

Sunday: 3:30pm -12:30 am
Monday: 7:00am - 3:00 pm

this would happen to me consistantly and it never changed even after i complained many times.

I hate that place... I think if there was "hell on earth" it would be close to the North Brunswick, NJ Walmart store 2003

The condoms part was true, wasn't it?

My uncle went to work at Walmart after he retired because he was getting to bored sitting at home. He said he quit within 3 weeks because they didn't respect their employees and said they'd cut their pay if they didn't stock so many shelves per hour. My uncle said it was some unrealistic amount and that only the young guys could do it, but they'd put the wrong products on shelves, etc. to get the quota.

My opinion of Walmart isn't great after that....

From the people that I know who work(ed) there, it's the closest thing to a legal sweatshop with a55hole bosses.
