One Day Employment
So after landing my new job as a Wal-Mart greeter,
A good find for many retirees, I lasted less than a day...
About two hours into my first day on the job a very loud,
Unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.
I said pleasantly, 'Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?'
The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say,
"No, they ain't twins. The oldest one's 9, and the other one's 7.
Why the h*#l would you think they're twins? Are you blind, or stupid?'
So I replied,
'I'm neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am, I just couldn't believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.'
My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work.

OMG!! Sylvia I can't stop laughing.I have tears rolling down my cheeks.
When we visited Salt Lake City I couldn't get over the meet and greet people, and how brave they are to do this as a job.
you are very brave, I think if I was the one I wouldn't even try to say anything, me and you may be the same it's not our line of work...
Thanks, Sylvia, for a laugh early in the morning!My day will be full of chuckles today:-)
Walmart greeters are some of the bravest people I know. My comment to the "lady" would have been very similar, I guess I'm not cut out for such a job either. Thanks for the chuckles!
I am your union rep, don't worry. I will get the job back for you. LOL
Very funny! I'd never make it in a customer service job - I'd probably actually say something like that!
You did it again. Thanks for the laugh!
I laughed out loud at this one!
Thanks for the great laugh PhQB! Made my day. Have a great evening. :)
You made my day Sylvia. Cant stop laughing.
And still think you were too polite on her.
Have a great day.

Ah, Sylvia, I needed to smile this morning! Very funny :-)
Hi Sylvia, thanks for all the nice comments on our trip to Alaska. I'm about halfway through the adventure so there's more to come.
even though I think you have recycled this one... I still clicked on for a good laugh
hahahahaha
thank you!
Oh my God.. Sylvia, did you really say that... Hahaha... Oh man... You are crazy.. :P
Oh well done Sylvia! yes, I agree and I do not think I could be polite for a fee - I would rather be so when deemed necessary and as you have stated - it is not necessarily the case!
Hahahahaha. Well done!
Too too too funny. My sister-in-law is an assistant manager at Walmart. I'm going to have to share this story with her. Thank you for the chuckle.
Thank you for making me laugh today again.
Lots of love and I will have a look around for all the nice sunset and sky!

I thought you would be really good for that kind of job. It´s hard to create so good one-liners on the spot.
'Have a nice day' lady! ROFL
