From Ben's Gaming Blog: "Thrown Out of Wal-Mart"


This is reposted from Ben's gaming blog. I just couldn't get over it. Wow. One more reason to avoid Wal-Mart like the plague...anyway, hear it from Ben:

Things have been busy lately. My daughter got tubes in her ears on Monday, and fortunately, my Mom was able to come down and help out during that time. So I had to have her at the airport at 5 this morning for her flight out. I really don't need to be at work until 6:30 or 7, so I go to Wal-Mart to pick up some frozen meals for lunch and wander over to grab some donuts for the office.

I walk up to the only check out open in the store and the guy in front of me in line says "Do you work here?"

Me: "No."

WM Jerk: "Well, we don't open for another 20 minutes. How did you get in here?"

Me: "Through the door."

WM Jerk: "So you forced the doors open to get in here?"

Me: "No, I came in through the regular door closer to the side of the building."

WM Jerk, into radio: "We need someone on the Food Center doors right away. We have an intruder."

Me: "What? OK, whatever, I'm leaving."

WM Jerk: "You can't just leave that stuff there, it's frozen."

At that point I just walked out. After I was outside, I went over to the front doors and they didn't open, but there were no store hours posted and the regular (not-automatic) doors on the side where they keep all the vending machines were unlocked and propped open. I walked past at least 6 Wal-Mart employees while I was shopping and not a single one stopped me or asked why I was in the store. I should really never go to Wal-Mart. Bad things happen when I do.
