Not a southern thing but a Walmart thing, once a fight broke out near the milk and dairy end of the store. I could hear the shuffling and someone shouting "they fightin'! They fightin'!"

yeah , walmart is a hose bag for that . i am done with walmart . also , some of the store assitants are rude as fuck . fuck walmart . they can't compete , that's why , and loosing customers by employees being assholes in the store . o'well plenty of other places to go .

The Walmart sparrow is a separate species of bird only found in Walmarts. They have evolved to fly around the ceiling and live off the food dropped by people snacking in the aisles.
They used to sell birds at Walmart when I was a kid. They had to quit because to many were getting loose and they never could catch them. I think the birds today are their descendants who just made home in the Walmart rafters lol.
Comforting my 4 year old who had just barfed in the Wal-Mart parking lot “Don’t worry, you’re not the first person to throw up in a Walmart parking lot ... I bet you’re not even the first person ToDaY.”
Sorry to be a Debbie Downer but Target contributes to BLM. The very protesters that loot their stores. There are more worthy minority organizations out there.
Ive literally skipped aisles and hid behind displays to avoid folks. Before I retired I worked in the local school system for 15 years. I knew everyones family someway or other.
That shit got me a concussion 15 years ago on black Friday when all of the other geniuses scrapping around in it thought it would be a good idea to pick it up and see if anything better was underneath. By the end, the only thing underneath it was me.
"People can hammer Walmart all they want to, but let me ask you this. Where else can you get fried chicken, get your eyes checked, have your tires rotated, and have an unscheduled class reunion?" Can't argue with that logic...add having a Big Mac to all of that and it absolutely is Sam Walton's dream come true
I get my chicken from Chick Fila or Popeyes, I get my eyes checked at vision source, my tires rotated at Firestone, and I don’t want to see any of my classmates. Walmart is garbage
Yes! Yes! I worked for Walmart for 21 years (now retired) and one day as I was stocking pets, a woman came in with a baby Opossum in her purse. It was ADORABLE. I hooked her up with a kitten nurser and some goat's milk. Made my day! Then I learned that is unlawful to keep wild life inside the city limits.Had to take my hat off to her rebellious attitude towards rehabilitating wildlife and giving the critter a chance to survive.
In my city (about 1 million) it is NOT unlawful to keep wild life....however there are MANY laws you have to follow.....so it is counter productive in many cases.
opossum's make for great pets[from what I heard]. Just know what they CAN eat and you'll be golden. Issue is they are a short lived species and won't last more than a couple of years even in captivity so... If you get attached to that beaut on your shoulder you named "Little Lucy" best be ready to be sad over her being gone later.
I was at the local Walmart and saw a women with what looked like a possums under her arms. I was mistaken. She was on the shavers isle and Im pretty sure she is on People of Walmart now..............eew
@@dragonsword7370 They live 2 to 4 years. If they're taken care of by a person who's trained, it'll make the difference. Outside cats live approx 4 hrs, but my inside cat lived to be 21. Did you know that possums are unable to get rabies? True.
Ex-walmart employee: I once saw a guy try to return a tv that was Best Buy's store brand (in other words Walmart doesn't even sell it, it's literally impossible) without the receipt stand, box, remote, video or power cables, and was demanding a full refund in cash. Assistant manager said 'You've got about ten seconds to get your shit and get out of my store before I call the police.' Customer: 'Y-you can't talk to me that way!' Mgr: 'I just did. GET OUT.'
Yep. I was a Customer Service rep for Walmart some years ago, and had the same thing happen. Moron tried to "return" a television we didn't even carry for sale, and the receipt he handed me was very clearly printed with "Best Buy" all over it. When I handed the receipt back to him and told him he had to take it to them, he stupidly ranted that he "...tried to return it there, but they won't take it back because I kicked the screen in in a fit of anger!" He was escorted out of the store by two managers and two security men, and off the property by two sheriff's deputies.
When I worked there someone tried to return a sewing machine box with bricks in it thinking we wouldn't look in box. Once we looked in box to take out machine, guy made a run for it.
I worked at Lowes before and somebody returned a toilet that had crap in it returned. My manager said next person that does that is fired. The next day I get assigned to returns.
Okay, I was wondering if the Walmart bags were getting thinner, or if I was just imagining it! Yes, the bags hardly survive the trip home, much less get saved for the bathroom trash!
I went to a Walmart in North Carolina in February and they were using new thick reusable plastic walmart bags. Not the ones you buy either, they were in place of the cheapo ones. It was like finding the freaking holy grail! Haven't seen them anywhere since.
Husband's a paramedic, I'm a preschool teacher. I get the 5 W's (okay so HIPPA, no names) on the the blood & guts sitch...he gets the impromptu parent meeting next to the pork rinds!
At Night there would be at max two registers open and two long lines of people trying to checkout before they go home and sleep. Makes shopping at night harder. I just want to get out as fast as I can. I need my sleep!
I would like to confirm the cake thing. 🎂 I work for a Walmart in Georgia. I worked at the service desk(returns) for 3 years. I actually had to return an almost completely eaten birthday cake once. Quality Guaranteed. I also had to return cooked and eaten steaks because they didn't taste good. Honey, I can't help your grill skills. My "favorite" return a manager made me do was crazy. A lady bought a pack of chicken left it in her fridge(forgot to cook it, she said) until it was expired. Then brought it back because it was expired. She got a refund because she had her receipt. But the receipt also proved that she bought the chicken before it was expired. A week before. Anyway....They still refunded it. 🙃
eh i just had someone return one of our thaw and sell Strawberry Rolls and the service Desk person put under the reason "Underbaked" lol couldn't have laughed harder.
Once my wife and I were almost at the Walmart entrance and a lady was backing out of a parking space into an oncoming car, both my wife and I went to her and telling her to stop she was fixing to hit someone and for her to stop backing up. Needless to say she ignored us and kept backing up until she did hit the oncoming car. The cops asked us what happened and the lady tried to tell the cops it was mine and my wife's fault she hit the car. A couple that also seen it backed up our story because the lady was lying on us trying to put the blame on us. The moral of the story is nowadays you don't know who to help anymore.
I had a lady hit me coming of walmart at the light hit me. She had been doing her shopping I guess. She shouldn't be driving but well she was. She was telling the cops that it was okay that she was not following the laws cuz that was my fault and then blamed it all on her husband who had been dead for over 30 years. He could of just handled all of this. I was like what the hell. Later I was in a krogers and had to see her and her daughter in law. They must of thought there were at walmart cuz she was screaming like them crazy videos you see of folks. I was breaking the law stocking her cuz I was near the oranges when she was by the taters. Proof, they start out crazy at walmart and spread out geez lol.
@@mesummika569 I can relate, it is sad that people want to lie and put it on someone else just to save their butt. My wife was crying after our incident because her and my family was brought up to help others when we can and this lady almost destroyed it all in a split second of her lying on us. Thank God we had witnesses to back us up. You just don't know who to help any more.
If y'all ever get the chance to visit Bentonville, Arkansas, you will find the Walmart visitors center muesum. One of the displays inside are some of the more colorful items that have been returned to Walmart. My favorite was a mixer that was returned because it was "possessed".
When I was working for a greeting card company at the Ft. O. Georgia Walmart, I encountered a card envelope on the floor, went to pick it up, and realized that a whole puddle of Elmer's glue had been applied to the back of it and stuck to the floor. Luckily, it was Elmer's glue and not a stronger one. I was in awe for about five minutes before I managed to get a maintenance guy to come and clean it up. The whole time he was cleaning it up, he kept repeating, "Who has time for that?!" I'm feeling you there, brother.
We've still got the same bags at our Walmart I about panicked when I saw that...well, Dollar General bags are thicker already but that yellows not subtle
@@MagnoliaBelle369 I believe she meant using the Walmart bags to haul home the items in her own bathroom. I do the same thing and also for my lunch at work. They fit perfect!!
Here in Iowa, to get the good grocery bags, you might as well go to Menards for half your food items. Even HyVee, which is an Iowa based company, has started getting plastic bags that are thinner than they used to be. I understand the "cost of doing business," but dang! 😅
Walmart changed their policy in April. If you don’t have a receipt or if your purchase does not come up on one of the numerous debit/ credit cards you use, Walmart won’t take it. They will scan every card in your purse and not complain though. Lol
My mom worked in customer service desk at Walmart and people would try to bring back stuff from other stores. I worked at Dollar General and people would try to bring back things we didn't carry and they would always use the same line, well they have it at the other store. No, they do not. If it doesn't register in the register it isn't in the system so you bought that somewhere else.
Hell, the jeggings that are so damned popular are considered decent, just because they are technically not pajamas. And in my experience, you don't necessarily have to shop at Walmart to find ppl who wear PJs to shop, etc. It was a regular thing for me to see classmates come to morning classes in a ratty t-shirt and fleece pajama pants. They made me feel positively dressed to the nines in my button-down shirts, nice sweaters and jeans w/o holes in them. 🤣🤣🤣
The funniest thing about COVID last year was watching Walmart and other stores trying to force people to move in one direction. Local Walmart had 30-45 minute traffic jams in the store🤣
I got tired of looking down at the floor instead of looking for the items I wanted to buy. And what were they going to say to people going in the opposite (“wrong”) direction? Absolutely nothing🙃
@@barbrettewhite6383 That was my philosophy, screw this nonsense. If there was something I wanted half way down an aisle and I was at the end that had the red "do not enter" dot on the floor, I'll be damned if I was gonna walk down the next aisle in the "approved" direction then backtrack to get the item. What where they going to do about it, tell me I'm being a naughty boy and issue me a ticket? That had to be one of the most asinine ideas that anybody (government and/or private sector) came up with during the pandemic... then actually expecting the average Southerner to go along with that BS... ... ... yeah, sure thang. 🙄🤣
@@CoyoteSevenFL Again, it's not just a Southern thing. My local Wally-world put the stickers down and I think just about everyone, including yours truly, basically rebelled. The funny thing about Iowa, though, is half the total population are sheeple, half are not. We're kinda sadly schizoid that way. 😅
@@a.katherinesuetterlin3028 oh my state's neighbor lol We have the same issure the side im on southwest and western Nebraska didnt really care the ones to our east were the Sheeple who did what the aisles told them lol
That's happening at my Walmart right now. Dad also shops at that Walmart and complains to me almost every day about not being able to find things. Part of the traffic jam at this Walmart is because of the number of people just standing there, trying to figure out why there's now craft supplies where the automotive stuff used to be or school supplies where the makeup was.
Lol I work at Walmart (but in Canada) and we don't get the crazy level of customers very often, and not even close to what you all get down there. But we do currently have 2 birds flying around the store
It could be that some people exaggerate just a tad. I don't see any of that stuff either. People here are almost universally polite, well dressed, and friendly. It's not unusual to strike up a conversation with a complete stranger. Most even return their shopping cart...er...buggy to the proper area.
"I get my canned goods from Walmart My meat from the Piggly Wiggly And my produce from the farmer's market I wish there was a place that had it all, it would SAVE-A-LOT on gas" I feel like there's a pun here that only a few people will get if they've shopped at Save-a-Lot
I used to unload trucks at Walmart never buy your meat in that store. And I would avoid anything that is meant to be refrigerated or kept fresh like produce as well
I have seen people taking destroyed shoes back after they bought them 2 to three years ago. And we stopped carrying them. After a bit put a stop to it.
@@mygreenfroggy the irony is with the cost of fabric, the homemade is more expensive... My daughter wore a size 5T in the waist and 10 in the length at age 8, so Grammy made most of her pants and I can tell you, that AIN'T cheap.
@@mygreenfroggy Not really! I have things I literally bought at Walmart, never used, still had the stickers on them, & they wouldn’t refund my money & take them back because they supposedly quite selling that particular style of cooking storage units (as in, the current exact ones were a different color now!).
Or Sam's. Though to be fair, the eggs are more for restaurants. I do buy the double 4 lb bags of shredded cheese though, way cheaper and I just freeze one until I get to it.
I’ve worked for Walmart for 30 years, 3rd shift no less! This all true! In fact, a lot of my co-workers say that I should write a blog about all I have see! If I do, It will be called Tales From 3rd Shift! Life At Walmart!! 😉👍
It's WalMart birth control. I have to say, no matter when I've gone to WalMart (used to work swings with a lot of overtime on graves), there is at least one screaming child.
As a frozen/dairy stocker, they scare the heck out of me. I'm surprised I haven't broken any bones trying to put on the breaks when a 2 year old darts in front of me while I'm pulling a pallet or even a loaded cart. I look around and mom is selecting her yogurt totally oblivious to the fact that her toddler just narrowly escaped death because I threw my body between it and a moving freight train.
🙋♀️ Cashier and jewelry department. I even did the blue light special for a couple weeks for wrist watches. It was looong. Even had to name the brands lol
"I guess that's how most buildings work, though." Not necessarily. Raleigh has a Walmart that was built on the site of a Kmart that was destroyed by a tornado. Apparently, Mother Nature did not want a Kmart at that intersection.
I remember that storm. The tornado also hit in Umstead State Park and made a mess in the woods right next to the Reedy Creek parking area. The park people left the mess and put up a sign that said "Tornado Interpretive Area" The sign stayed until Hurricane Fran came through and turned the whole park into a hurricane interpretive area.
We are down to 2, on a busy Saturday. They opened a ton of self checkouts. I’ll be dad gum if I’m a gonna check myself out, and bag my own groceries. What has this world, and Walmart come to!?!?
@@julieklie2344 here they completely took out all but a few staffed registers and replaced then w/ self check and then started shutting those ones down too.
Wow you guys have 1/3 open? We literally have 2 open. Always. Even during hurricane season. Why is this a thing? There's plenty of workers in the store.
I lost it at the bit with the birds flying around! Our old WalMart used to have nests in the rafters, and cats in the back room. The cats were mousers and business was goooooooood!
You missed the kid dribbling a ball constantly ALL through the store, women opening up all the makeup to try it on, and the parents ignoring the kid yelling, "Momma, mama, mommy, mommy, mom, momma, MAMA, MAMA, MOMMMEEEE" for five minutes in the checkout line. And that's why Walmart is the store of absolute LAST resort for me. ☠
We have a Ghetto-Mart in the afternoons and at night. The high end, assisted living residents go in the morning to shop. Its in the wealthiest neighborhood in Texas.
I used to be ok with Walmart when they were 24 hours, and I could shop at my leisure at 1 am on a Saturday. Then Corona happened, they started closing at 8 PM, added more self-checkouts, and apparently all their cashiers quit or were fired. I've gone to the checkout only to abandon my cart and leave due to the 25+ people waiting in line at each register. It kills me when I walk down that death row gauntlet at the front of the store, spy what looks to be a shorter line at the far end, and take my place in line, only to hear a little "ahem" from behind me. Look back, and sure enough, there's 10-12 more people in line back around the corner of the aisle or between the clothing racks. So, you politely mumble sorry or something, and wander off with your tail between your legs, and of course each line now has 5 more people in it that it did before.
@@johns9652 In grad school (only option) I got REAL good at splitting things up between my hubby and I so we each had less than 15 items and could use the express lanes. Now I have an HEB >5 minutes from my house so I don't touch Wally World with a 10 foot pole.
OMG that dig at dollar general was so funny (i thought my dollar general was the only one where there never seemed to be any employees around anywhere)
I miss K mart so much. K mart had the #1 most important quality in a store. It was "on the way". It was on my way to the sitters, my mom's house, home. Walmart isn't on the way anywhere for me and requires a special trip. What a whoopin'!
I worked at a Walmart for almost two years once. I was even part of the crew that built the interior of the store. All of this is right on point. The chicken thing is true. I could tell you much, much worse. I really loved the shot of the instock group's pallets on the floor, which was SOP. People have no idea how busy the store gets at night after the last customers leave until the doors open in the morning. The stores are usually heavily restocked and cleaned every night.
In college I loved going late at night, but only to the one in the white collar neighborhood. My friend with a car and I would get there around midnight and finish up around 1 am and I swear we were the only non-employees there some nights. Got all the freshest produce, no lines, and parking right by the door.
People simply don't care. If stores want to enforce the rule they'll have to install metal gates on the exit of each aisle that can only be pushed outward.
I don't remember if the Walmart in my town even bothered with arrows, but the Menards across the street set up their arrows in a way where you'll have to walk 3 times the distance through the store if you obey them. Nobody did.
Had to laugh at the “Walmart will take back anything “. I worked with a girl that used to work at Target in the return area. A woman wanted and got a refund on a home pregnancy test…it didn’t give her the result she wanted.
“Yeah this isn’t my go to Walmart so I have no idea where anything is” yeah I can totally confirm I hear this at least 15 times a day at a Walmart neighborhood market.
As a former Walmart employee I'd say this is pretty damn accurate. I worked as a cashier for 7 years and almost everything they mentioned I've seen or heard actually happened at another store.
My mom says the "go to" Wal-Mart thing. There is a particular Walmart my mom will refuse to go to because she hates the layout and they never have what she wants.
I am in a city and luckily have several I can go to.....the only problem.....they are all slightly different in organization, so I am always lost. Also, after 9PM they all close off a different exit (left VS right) so I can never remember which door to enter (God forbid they have a lighted sign or something)
My friend Wade had a theory about Walmart. He said that you could go to any Walmart at any given time and there's someone who has been intimate with a farm animal. 😝
I tell you what Walmart after dark is a strange place. I once went to a Walmart looking for some Dr Pepper at 10pm and in the mostly empty Soda aisle there was a loaf of sourdough bread with a single bite taken out of it left behind on the shelf. I was the only person who seemed confused/worried so I just kept doing my shopping.
As a current Walmart employee in Texas, this very accurate. The things I've witnessed.... *flashbacks to lady eating a raw pineapple with her teeth and putting it back*
Don't forget when people would get a coke from the coolers and some chicken from the deli eat it while shopping then put it on the shelf before thet checked out. In short free food with the store paying for it. While checking out one woman with her food stamp card she gave her two kids candy and coke, could not pay as she did not have anything left and tried to walk out. I had her to give what was left back. She was not happy.
Remember back in the old days before all walmarts got replaced with super walmart? The had the walmart grill, don't remember what they called it, I miss those.
We still have one standard walmart in my area but it's so run down and nasty I haven't been to it in years. I have about 6 walmarts within 10 to 25 miles from me. I cant even count the dollar generals in my area.
True story. I was working the customer service desk at the Wally World in Destin Fl back in 1998, old lady comes in with just a receipt. wants her money back for the flowers she bought, didn't water or take care of and they died. the manager gave her the money.
Isn’t that crazy! When people find out a place will let them get away with crap like that, they will definitely take advantage. So many people have no integrity.
@@MagnoliaBelle369 true. Target bags are way to valuable for trash bags. We have target bags to hold stuff like ornaments and wrapping/crafting supplies
I get stuff at walmart. But I do get my meat at Piggly wiggly and my vegetables from Kroger or the Farmers market. She spoke truth in that one for me LOL 🤣
The comment about returning a single piece of cake is not wrong. i worked in a Walmart bakery for a few years, sadly there are managers that would do that
Thin bags.....she ain't lyin. I like to do self check now so I can double-bag and triple-bag each item individually. Then when I get home I use my different colors of duct tape I got at the Dollar Tree to put "band-aids" on the holes. Good as new!!! I like to be creative. 😊
As an Arkansan, you're welcome for giving y'all people at One AM in Wal-Mart in pajamas, waiting three hours to get your oil change, and buying expensive but not durable glasses.
This could've been an hour long, easy. People at the Squall-Marts in Northern Indiana walk around eating lunch meat. And yes, I said Squall-Mart. That's because within 1 to 2 minutes after entering, there's a child throwing a fit.
My coworker would open up ice cream cone packages and eat the ice cream and throw the wrapper away so she didn't have to pay for it. Never went anywhere with her again.
for some reason at the walmart where i live the self checkout doesnt take cash . so i have to stand in line for an hour to buy one thing or use a credit card for a couple dollars worth of stuff . This bothers me cause I hate using a card especially for small things . I prefer using cash
Same here. I went to a check out, did not notice it was cashless. My bill was $9.30. I put in a $10 bill, expecting 70 cents in change. One of the employees supervising noticed this and told me I was not going to receive any change. I went to the Service Desk and explained what happened. The lady at that desk reached into her cash drawer and handed me 70 cents. Now that is service. QUESTION: why would Walmart have check outs that do not take cash? Sounds like this is more convenient for WM than the customer.
They definitely take anything back at Walmart. The other day I bought an Instant Pot heating blender. Opened the box up at home and could tell immediately it was a return. Not only was it used, as evidenced by the dried food and liquid on the base, it looked like it had been dropped off a balcony. No instruction manual, no accessories.
0:35 No joke this is dead accurate. I worked there in the cleaning supplies section in my early 20s and Customer Service would send us our returns for our department. On more than one occasion I saw Dollar General labeled boxes in our returns cart.
I went into Walmart the other day. There were no carts inside the store. They were all outside. I asked one of the employees jokingly where were the carts. She shrugged and said "not my problem". Customers are not the only ones lazy at Walmart.
Yes. Why can't we all agree to: 1) walk our carts back inside (if able) 2) if you are going in and need a cart, grab one from outside to take it 3) Don't touch things yo aren't buying (especially during Covid) and 4) IF you pick something up that you don't want....PUT it back EXACTLY where you got it. I am so tired of seeing Wal-mart stores trashed because of shoppers not putting things where they got them (just tossed aside NEAR where they got them).
I can guarantee you that absolutely nothing happening at Walmart today is Sam Walton's dream come true. He would loathe what his beloved company has become. 😥
@@RevRedmondFarrier Me too. I've given them 21 years. I was seriously hunting for another job when Covid hit and it just hasn't been a good time to quit since then. At least I can be thankful to have had a job throughout all of this!
I love this! Self Checkout is closed? I'm stealing that one. And Kmart, omg, I miss their deli. You could even smoke in there while you shopped. I guess I'm showing my age. I don't think they look at what anyone is drinking in the stores here. You guys and gals did a great job on this one.
This just in: Due to panic buying, Walmart has decided to open up a 2nd register.
Dire times indeed

Walmart is garbage
The R.I.P. for K-Mart slayed me. LOL!!
Right!!! I loved Kmart
Me too!! Loved it! Shout out to Big K!
There will always be a blue light special in my heart for k mart
My town had a Big K-mart, do y'all remember those? I loved it, but it got torn down and the lot was used for a Circle K and a Publix.
I worked at the K-Mart on Longpoint in Spring Branch in 1975.
Yes! Yes! I worked for Walmart for 21 years (now retired) and one day as I was stocking pets, a woman came in with a baby Opossum in her purse. It was ADORABLE. I hooked her up with a kitten nurser and some goat's milk. Made my day! Then I learned that is unlawful to keep wild life inside the city limits.Had to take my hat off to her rebellious attitude towards rehabilitating wildlife and giving the critter a chance to survive.
In my city (about 1 million) it is NOT unlawful to keep wild life....however there are MANY laws you have to follow.....so it is counter productive in many cases.
opossum's make for great pets[from what I heard]. Just know what they CAN eat and you'll be golden. Issue is they are a short lived species and won't last more than a couple of years even in captivity so... If you get attached to that beaut on your shoulder you named "Little Lucy" best be ready to be sad over her being gone later.
I was at the local Walmart and saw a women with what looked like a possums under her arms. I was mistaken. She was on the shavers isle and Im pretty sure she is on People of Walmart now..............eew
@@dragonsword7370 They live 2 to 4 years. If they're taken care of by a person who's trained, it'll make the difference. Outside cats live approx 4 hrs, but my inside cat lived to be 21. Did you know that possums are unable to get rabies? True.
When Matt said "I should've just done a pickup instead" I laughed so hard bc I work at Walmart Pickup
More power to you sister.
Thank you for your service!
My Walmart has so many employees now with their checking off lists and their plastic carts filling pick up grocery orders. It’s crazy!
You are appreciated indeed my friend.
"There's a Bird in here"...yep!!
That happened so-many-times at the store I worked at.
That happened at the one I worked at back in the day too. Lol

Isn't there always? 🤣
One time I saw a bird eating bird seed from a bag in a Walmart and I asked the bird did you pay for that
Ex-walmart employee: I once saw a guy try to return a tv that was Best Buy's store brand (in other words Walmart doesn't even sell it, it's literally impossible) without the receipt stand, box, remote, video or power cables, and was demanding a full refund in cash. Assistant manager said 'You've got about ten seconds to get your shit and get out of my store before I call the police.' Customer: 'Y-you can't talk to me that way!' Mgr: 'I just did. GET OUT.'
Yep. I was a Customer Service rep for Walmart some years ago, and had the same thing happen. Moron tried to "return" a television we didn't even carry for sale, and the receipt he handed me was very clearly printed with "Best Buy" all over it. When I handed the receipt back to him and told him he had to take it to them, he stupidly ranted that he "...tried to return it there, but they won't take it back because I kicked the screen in in a fit of anger!"
He was escorted out of the store by two managers and two security men, and off the property by two sheriff's deputies.
When I worked there someone tried to return a sewing machine box with bricks in it thinking we wouldn't look in box. Once we looked in box to take out machine, guy made a run for it.
I worked at Lowes before and somebody returned a toilet that had crap in it returned. My manager said next person that does that is fired. The next day I get assigned to returns.

Okay, I was wondering if the Walmart bags were getting thinner, or if I was just imagining it! Yes, the bags hardly survive the trip home, much less get saved for the bathroom trash!
A sharp item used to split the side of the bag. Now your toilet paper does. No cap.

I went to a Walmart in North Carolina in February and they were using new thick reusable plastic walmart bags. Not the ones you buy either, they were in place of the cheapo ones. It was like finding the freaking holy grail! Haven't seen them anywhere since.
You have to start double bagging, and then you'll have two bags for the bathroom trash.

I would like to confirm the cake thing. 🎂 I work for a Walmart in Georgia. I worked at the service desk(returns) for 3 years. I actually had to return an almost completely eaten birthday cake once. Quality Guaranteed. I also had to return cooked and eaten steaks because they didn't taste good. Honey, I can't help your grill skills. My "favorite" return a manager made me do was crazy. A lady bought a pack of chicken left it in her fridge(forgot to cook it, she said) until it was expired. Then brought it back because it was expired. She got a refund because she had her receipt. But the receipt also proved that she bought the chicken before it was expired. A week before. Anyway....They still refunded it. 🙃
eh i just had someone return one of our thaw and sell Strawberry Rolls and the service Desk person put under the reason "Underbaked" lol couldn't have laughed harder.
That’s okay. I saw a fan returned to my store. The reason. Didn’t blow cold air. 🙄
Once my wife and I were almost at the Walmart entrance and a lady was backing out of a parking space into an oncoming car, both my wife and I went to her and telling her to stop she was fixing to hit someone and for her to stop backing up. Needless to say she ignored us and kept backing up until she did hit the oncoming car. The cops asked us what happened and the lady tried to tell the cops it was mine and my wife's fault she hit the car. A couple that also seen it backed up our story because the lady was lying on us trying to put the blame on us. The moral of the story is nowadays you don't know who to help anymore.
I had a lady hit me coming of walmart at the light hit me. She had been doing her shopping I guess. She shouldn't be driving but well she was. She was telling the cops that it was okay that she was not following the laws cuz that was my fault and then blamed it all on her husband who had been dead for over 30 years. He could of just handled all of this. I was like what the hell. Later I was in a krogers and had to see her and her daughter in law. They must of thought there were at walmart cuz she was screaming like them crazy videos you see of folks. I was breaking the law stocking her cuz I was near the oranges when she was by the taters. Proof, they start out crazy at walmart and spread out geez lol.

When I was working for a greeting card company at the Ft. O. Georgia Walmart, I encountered a card envelope on the floor, went to pick it up, and realized that a whole puddle of Elmer's glue had been applied to the back of it and stuck to the floor. Luckily, it was Elmer's glue and not a stronger one. I was in awe for about five minutes before I managed to get a maintenance guy to come and clean it up.

We lost Winn Dixie in NC around 2004 I'm still missing it, grew up with those stores and my kids loved the ladies there it was sad
Publix has really good bags too.
Here in Iowa, to get the good grocery bags, you might as well go to Menards for half your food items. Even HyVee, which is an Iowa based company, has started getting plastic bags that are thinner than they used to be.

True Story: my husband use to work at Walmart stocking. Someone brought back dollar general brand laundry soap! Hahaha
But did Walmart give them a refund???😂
Lolololololol !!!! 🤣🤣
@@barbrettewhite6383 if it's not carried in that store, it's impossible to get a refund
Walmart changed their policy in April. If you don’t have a receipt or if your purchase does not come up on one of the numerous debit/ credit cards you use, Walmart won’t take it. They will scan every card in your purse and not complain though. Lol
My mom worked in customer service desk at Walmart and people would try to bring back stuff from other stores. I worked at Dollar General and people would try to bring back things we didn't carry and they would always use the same line, well they have it at the other store. No, they do not. If it doesn't register in the register it isn't in the system so you bought that somewhere else.
“I’m wearing pants..I’m definitely over dressed for this”. So true!! Lol

And so you were not waring any Pants?? Fit right in at Wal mart.
Hell, the jeggings that are so damned popular are considered decent, just because they are technically not pajamas. And in my experience, you don't necessarily have to shop at Walmart to find ppl who wear PJs to shop, etc.
It was a regular thing for me to see classmates come to morning classes in a ratty t-shirt and fleece pajama pants. They made me feel positively dressed to the nines in my button-down shirts, nice sweaters and jeans w/o holes in them. 🤣🤣🤣

It could be that some people exaggerate just a tad. I don't see any of that stuff either. People here are almost universally polite, well dressed, and friendly.

"I guess that's how most buildings work, though." Not necessarily. Raleigh has a Walmart that was built on the site of a Kmart that was destroyed by a tornado. Apparently, Mother Nature did not want a Kmart at that intersection.
I think I saw that one!
I remember that storm. The tornado also hit in Umstead State Park and made a mess in the woods right next to the Reedy Creek parking area. The park people left the mess and put up a sign that said "Tornado Interpretive Area" The sign stayed until Hurricane Fran came through and turned the whole park into a hurricane interpretive area.

Wow you guys have 1/3 open? We literally have 2 open. Always. Even during hurricane season. Why is this a thing? There's plenty of workers in the store.
I lost it at the bit with the birds flying around! Our old WalMart used to have nests in the rafters, and cats in the back room. The cats were mousers and business was goooooooood!
You missed the kid dribbling a ball constantly ALL through the store, women opening up all the makeup to try it on, and the parents ignoring the kid yelling, "Momma, mama, mommy, mommy, mom, momma, MAMA, MAMA, MOMMMEEEE" for five minutes in the checkout line.

We have a Ghetto-Mart in the afternoons and at night. The high end, assisted living residents go in the morning to shop. Its in the wealthiest neighborhood in Texas.
I used to be ok with Walmart when they were 24 hours, and I could shop at my leisure at 1 am on a Saturday. Then Corona happened, they started closing at 8 PM, added more self-checkouts, and apparently all their cashiers quit or were fired. I've gone to the checkout only to abandon my cart and leave due to the 25+ people waiting in line at each register.
It kills me when I walk down that death row gauntlet at the front of the store, spy what looks to be a shorter line at the far end, and take my place in line, only to hear a little "ahem" from behind me. Look back, and sure enough, there's 10-12 more people in line back around the corner of the aisle or between the clothing racks. So, you politely mumble sorry or something, and wander off with your tail between your legs, and of course each line now has 5 more people in it that it did before.

I worked at a Walmart for almost two years once. I was even part of the crew that built the interior of the store. All of this is right on point. The chicken thing is true. I could tell you much, much worse. I really loved the shot of the instock group's pallets on the floor, which was SOP. People have no idea how busy the store gets at night after the last customers leave until the doors open in the morning. The stores are usually heavily restocked and cleaned every night.
In college I loved going late at night, but only to the one in the white collar neighborhood. My friend with a car and I would get there around midnight and finish up around 1 am and I swear we were the only non-employees there some nights. Got all the freshest produce, no lines, and parking right by the door.
The wrong way lane. All the dang time. I mean, there are arrows.
They should have posted pictures of Steven Tyler with the "talk bubble" of him screaming, "Walk This Way!" on the floor...
People simply don't care. If stores want to enforce the rule they'll have to install metal gates on the exit of each aisle that can only be pushed outward.
Your arrows can't control me, bub.
I don't remember if the Walmart in my town even bothered with arrows, but the Menards across the street set up their arrows in a way where you'll have to walk 3 times the distance through the store if you obey them. Nobody did.
My Walmart never had arrows. My ingle’s did.

Lidl carries it. I'm in Pennsylvania and bought it last week.
Sauers was better, more tang. Same company.
Our Walmart in Indiana has Dukes.
Blecch! Duke's sucks. Too much vinegar, almost as strange tasting as Miracle Whip. Hellman's all the way. Blasphemy!
Duke's all the way.Everything else is disgusting. Yes, I 'm a true Southern girl too.
My friend Wade had a theory about Walmart. He said that you could go to any Walmart at any given time and there's someone who has been intimate with a farm animal. 😝
I tell you what Walmart after dark is a strange place. I once went to a Walmart looking for some Dr Pepper at 10pm and in the mostly empty Soda aisle there was a loaf of sourdough bread with a single bite taken out of it left behind on the shelf. I was the only person who seemed confused/worried so I just kept doing my shopping.
🤣🤣🤣
As a current Walmart employee in Texas, this very accurate.
The things I've witnessed.... *flashbacks to lady eating a raw pineapple with her teeth and putting it back*
Why just why.....lol
Wow! That’s just gross, as well as plain wrong.
Don't forget when people would get a coke from the coolers and some chicken from the deli eat it while shopping then put it on the shelf before thet checked out. In short free food with the store paying for it. While checking out one woman with her food stamp card she gave her two kids candy and coke, could not pay as she did not have anything left and tried to walk out. I had her to give what was left back. She was not happy.
The Dollar General quote was pretty funny. Have to become a manager before you can check yourself out!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I went to a Dollar General years ago. Found a child's sand pail in toys that had been used as a urinal. NEVER went back.
I find empty popcorn chicken tubs and spent soda cans on various shelves.
Remember back in the old days before all walmarts got replaced with super walmart? The had the walmart grill, don't remember what they called it, I miss those.
That happened in my town, in about 2015 they built the super Walmart and the old standard one closed, now there’s something else there
We still have one standard walmart in my area but it's so run down and nasty I haven't been to it in years.
I have about 6 walmarts within 10 to 25 miles from me. I cant even count the dollar generals in my area.
My kids and I would stop in on our way home from school a couple times a week. We’d get drinks and share a big pretzel. I miss the grill too. 😢
We actually have at least 2 non- super Walmarts in our area still, but they're pretty neglected last I knew.
True story. I was working the customer service desk at the Wally World in Destin Fl back in 1998, old lady comes in with just a receipt. wants her money back for the flowers she bought, didn't water or take care of and they died. the manager gave her the money.
Isn’t that crazy! When people find out a place will let them get away with crap like that, they will definitely take advantage. So many people have no integrity.
Damn, I work at a Walmart and you are not far off. Lol
Where does Walmart keep the Terminator toys?
Aisle B, back.
Just for that you have to drink unsweet tea for a week.
@@marshmallowmilitia8056 Seconded.
^^Don't listen them, your majesty. That was brilliant
Remember when you could buy hermit crabs at Wal-Mart lol
I use any store bag's for trash bags. Amateurs.
Walmart white is the most classy trash bag
@@MagnoliaBelle369 true. Target bags are way to valuable for trash bags. We have target bags to hold stuff like ornaments and wrapping/crafting supplies
@@MagnoliaBelle369 agreed. Also chick fil a bags.
@@MagnoliaBelle369 The bag that's holding all my other bags is a Piggly Wiggly bag (closed now because it burned in Jan 2020).
@@ladybee883 I've never even seen a Piggly Wiggly. Seriously, where in the world are these magical places?
The "get fried chicken, get your eyes checked, your tires rotated with an oil change an an impromptu class reunion"....that killed me!! So true!!!
My Wal-Mart doesn't have a delicatessen where they can make fried chicken. It doesn't have a tire and lube section either!
I get stuff at walmart. But I do get my meat at Piggly wiggly and my vegetables from Kroger or the Farmers market. She spoke truth in that one for me LOL 🤣
The comment about returning a single piece of cake is not wrong. i worked in a Walmart bakery for a few years, sadly there are managers that would do that
"I'm a Target 6, but a Walmart 10." Ha! That's funny!
Thin bags.....she ain't lyin. I like to do self check now so I can double-bag and triple-bag each item individually. Then when I get home I use my different colors of duct tape I got at the Dollar Tree to put "band-aids" on the holes. Good as new!!! I like to be creative. 😊
That bit where Matt sees a bird flying around inside Walmart, when he looked up that would have been a great time for target practice by the bird. 😲😁👍
As an Arkansan, you're welcome for giving y'all people at One AM in Wal-Mart in pajamas, waiting three hours to get your oil change, and buying expensive but not durable glasses.
I always tell my kids how Walmart used to be a wheat field. And I will continue to tell them that until they have kids and then I'll tell their kids.
This could've been an hour long, easy.
People at the Squall-Marts in Northern Indiana walk around eating lunch meat.
And yes, I said Squall-Mart. That's because within 1 to 2 minutes after entering, there's a child throwing a fit.
Haha! Squall-Matt. New one! 😂😂
It the same thing in Massachusetts, you literally cannot step into a Walmart store without a kid having a tantrum.
My daughter went to college in Indiana and it was a social event to go to Walmart at 1 am to people watch.
Then don't forget people putting the packages down so they will not have to pay for it.
My coworker would open up ice cream cone packages and eat the ice cream and throw the wrapper away so she didn't have to pay for it. Never went anywhere with her again.
for some reason at the walmart where i live the self checkout doesnt take cash . so i have to stand in line for an hour to buy one thing or use a credit card for a couple dollars worth of stuff . This bothers me cause I hate using a card especially for small things . I prefer using cash
Ours have some that do and some that don’t.
@@barbrettewhite6383 ours was like that and now you cant use cash on any of them
This makes me nervous. I’m surprised they they didn’t call it a coin shortage. More “end times” stuff. In my opinion. 😬
The stores in my town do this also. And only one check out for using cash so you spend an eternity in line.
Same here. I went to a check out, did not notice it was cashless. My bill was $9.30. I put in a $10 bill, expecting 70 cents in change. One of the employees supervising noticed this and told me I was not going to receive any change. I went to the Service Desk and explained what happened. The lady at that desk reached into her cash drawer and handed me 70 cents. Now that is service. QUESTION: why would Walmart have check outs that do not take cash? Sounds like this is more convenient for WM than the customer.
They definitely take anything back at Walmart. The other day I bought an Instant Pot heating blender. Opened the box up at home and could tell immediately it was a return. Not only was it used, as evidenced by the dried food and liquid on the base, it looked like it had been dropped off a balcony. No instruction manual, no accessories.
RIP K-Mart. 😢
Long live the Blue Light Special... (bows head in respect)
Did yall know that Kmart is alive in Australia? It's big there. They didn't die, they just went down under.
@@chellybabyme I did not know that. Glad it's living on somewhere in the world. What happened to it and Sears in the US is a dirty shame.
I remember going to K-mart. Does anyone remember Roses?
@@anmawin Yeah, used to have a rose bush in the back yard.
0:35 No joke this is dead accurate. I worked there in the cleaning supplies section in my early 20s and Customer Service would send us our returns for our department. On more than one occasion I saw Dollar General labeled boxes in our returns cart.
The Kmart I worked at had 40 employees. It doesn’t surprise me what people got away with
@@daradoe9415 our store didnt have any theft in the year befire closing officially. Everyone thought it was already closed for years...
"I wanna know why all the self-check outs closed...did I get fired and nobody tell me?" 😂😂😂😂
RIP K-Mart. :(
Because of items being left where they don't belong and carts being left in parking spots I think the laziest people shop at Walmart.
I kinda appreciate the carts being left in parking spots, since I'm disabled now and need something to hold onto, LOL.
I went into Walmart the other day. There were no carts inside the store. They were all outside. I asked one of the employees jokingly where were the carts. She shrugged and said "not my problem". Customers are not the only ones lazy at Walmart.
Yes. Why can't we all agree to: 1) walk our carts back inside (if able) 2) if you are going in and need a cart, grab one from outside to take it 3) Don't touch things yo aren't buying (especially during Covid) and 4) IF you pick something up that you don't want....PUT it back EXACTLY where you got it. I am so tired of seeing Wal-mart stores trashed because of shoppers not putting things where they got them (just tossed aside NEAR where they got them).
I can guarantee you that absolutely nothing happening at Walmart today is Sam Walton's dream come true. He would loathe what his beloved company has become. 😥
As one who earns a living on the other side of the "employees only" sign there, I can confirm that this it sadly true.
@@RevRedmondFarrier Me too. I've given them 21 years. I was seriously hunting for another job when Covid hit and it just hasn't been a good time to quit since then. At least I can be thankful to have had a job throughout all of this!
This is sad, but true.
Ah yes! The parking lot! I get parking lot anxiety just thinking about WalMart!
Walmart's parking lot is almost a demolition derby.
I love this! Self Checkout is closed? I'm stealing that one. And Kmart, omg, I miss their deli. You could even smoke in there while you shopped. I guess I'm showing my age. I don't think they look at what anyone is drinking in the stores here. You guys and gals did a great job on this one.
I loved their deli, too! My mom worked in the cash office and brought me sandwich at least once a week.
