Andy: Are you suggesting that Walmart pumps out fray gas from its vents, so
after people shop there they get belligerent? Interesting idea.

Hi,
Almost everyone I know HATES to shop at Walmart--esp the Super Walmart! In
fact, sometimes I go in to get something, get too tired just looking at all
the stuff and leave without it...and, if I DO try to get it, just walking the
whole store makes me feel like I've exercised for the day...and I've not done
a thing but pick up a few things! The 'good' thing is that I shop less and
less...we make do with what we have a lot more than I would if we were just
running to the little shop down the street! (which is usually the grocery
store...but one of the managers there we know from scouts and he is working
his
way through school so my son likes to go there...and since it is not as
large as Walmart but often has the necessities of what we need...we go there
more
often!)
We talk about how so many of us leave Walmart without buying a thing because
it is either exhausting or overwhelming at my work, sometimes, and I'm not
the only one!
So--when I was creating the little scenario...and thinking why someone who
worked at Walmart might dream grand dreams of being a great painter yet not do
a thing about it, all of the above thought did make me wonder!
Best,
Marlena in Missouri
