Re: March 24 I work at Walmart Update

The front line is the cream of the crop. It's the front line that is going to get everyone through this. You are doing a great job and should feel good for what you are doing. Ignore the clods that don't get it.

@Libra2, you must be a truly amazing person! To deal with all these rude and nasty customers on a daily (hourly??) basis and keep standing strong each day speaks to your admirable character. Stay strong and know that you are valued and appreciated by so many people! I really hope that the Wal-Mart Corperation recognizes you and your fellow workers in a very significant manner when this pandemic is finally over.👍👍

I hope the Powers that Be 

REMEMBER that you all are considered 

ESSENTIAL Service  Providers.

 

..and that the folks who praise the front line workers NOW,

will remember them when they “Fight for $15”.

 

Im hoping these Essential Service Providers have a 

full-filling sense of Pride in their jobs now.....that they may not have had prior.

 

Im hoping the white-collar workers have a new respect for 

blue collared workers......realizing that using both one’s BODY and Mind

is hard work....even in Ordinary Times......

 

Truck drivers, UPS/ mail delivery, retail, janitors, window-washers, mechanics, snow-plow drivers, taxi drivers, trash pick up,  barbers/stylists and hundreds more “blue-collared” workers are the middle class who

(percentage wise) pay the most in taxes.

 

Dont take anything personally.....

EXCEPT THE COMPLIMENTS!  lol

Re: March 24 I work at Walmart Update

I shopped at my grocery store the other morning during their senior/at-risk hour.  Perfectly healthy people knocked down three older people racing for the toilet paper aisle.  I was on my last roll and didn't get any because I stayed to help people up.  A woman and I were talking and I mentioned I was on my last roll and another elderly man offered his to me.  I didn't want to take his but he said he had some and really didn't need it.  I'm forever grateful because I haven't found any in other stores here.

Re: March 24 I work at Walmart Update

@CalminHeart, are you kidding me??? Literally knocked them down to the floor????!!!! Anyone who behaves like that should be immediately escorted out of the store and be told that they may come back tomorrow if they can behave in a civilized manner. If not, out the door they go again and try again the next day. Eventually even stupid people like this will realize that if they wish to shop at ____ Store, they need to change their extremely bad behavior! These bottomfeeders are probably among the many who will then attempt to sell what they purchased on Amazon for a ridiculous, price-gouging amount! UGH!!!!😠

No, I'm not kidding. It was appalling, to say the least.  A couple of people yelled at them and a manager came running.  I didn't see these people afterwards so I hope they were kicked out.
