As Seen At Walmart

I figure since I’m in the “Mensa Meetinghouses” everyday, I should post some pics I take. No people pics… I’d run out of iCloud storage. Just Walmart shit....

Me at WalMart today:

Me: can I buy a propane tank exchange at self checkout?

Walmart lady: Sure. I have the bar code here. I'll check you out.

Me: thank you (cautiously optimistic)

Walmart lady: here's your receipt. Take your empty to the exchange lockers outside and I'll have someone meet you there right away.

Me: (getting excited that this might actually work). Thank you!

I go get the empty tank out of the car and walk over to the exchange locker and stand there, in the pouring rain, fingers crossed. 5 minutes pass and now I'm wet, nobody's coming. I'm afraid to go back inside because I might miss the guy, not knowing which way he's coming. I call the store and get the operator and tell her what's up. She says she'll take care of it. Within a minute, I hear them page over the loudspeaker for an attendant to go to propane exchange, customer needs assistance. 1 minute later, dude shows up and notices I'm soaked. He asks how long I've been standing there and I tell him it's been 7 or8 minutes now. He's says "they just paged me just now".

I have no fucking idea what the checkout lady did, but I do know she didn't tell anyone I needed assistance. Fuck......

Maybe she did notify the dude but he was busy.

Rickochet She didn’t do the announcement in Spanish, that was the issue.

Another stellar parking job

Typhoon how the hell dis she get here from Minnesota??

I think she used to work for me. 😁 I saw her pull up to a snowbank blocking access to the highway and when she almost got stuck she decided to back up. She couldn't back straight up to save her life. She tried three times and always turned into another snowbank on her right and got stuck again. I finally put my jacket on and went out there and told her to just back straight up and she'd be Ok. She tried twice more and got out and said, "Could you just do it for me?" I got in and backed out and turned the car toward another exit that had no snow by it. I said, "You should have used this exit to start with." She said, "But I always use this exit" indicating the exit with a four foot drift across it that she pulled up to first.

Actually she is quite smart she just lacks common sense and coordination.

They had it coming

No picture but I’m in there taking a leak. I can hear a guy in the dumper clipping his finger nails. Now I don’t know how many fingers he has but holy shit…. Clip, clip, clip…. 5 minutes at least. I looked underneath to see if he was doing his toes too, it was the only explanation.

What is wrong with people nowadays…. Might be a good topic for a thread. I just see sooo many f’ed up people that I never saw when I was younger.

Typhoon What is wrong with people nowadays…

It's ponderous.

Typhoon Hopefully someone took a pic of you peeping and will post that on Walmart people😎

Typhoon

I’m sitting here in the car, had just posted about what’s wrong with people and I’m watching this person in a Ford Escape attempting to back into a pull through space. 4 times…. Back and forth…. And the car has a back up camera. Why are people backing up onto pull throughs??? Other than me being at Walmart

KCee

Typhoon Practicing student driver? My kid really needs to do more of that.

My wife too apparently. She went to back out of a spot the other day, but instead drove forward into pylon.....with my car of course. She blamed my car's electronic shifter 🙄

Saw something yesterday that I never seen before, someone coming around a 2 lane roundabout in opposite direction. Don't know how it could happen a divided highway on entry.

[deleted]

jsippy73 I thought that traffic circles were designed for idiots. What do you do when someone can't handle those? I've had people pull out in front of me when they enter those things...not looking, not yielding. My horn wakes them up.

jsippy73 Don't know how it could happen a divided highway on entry.

Nothing surprises me anymore. It's way too easy to get a driver's license.

I cannot beat that … but I did just see a guy stop in the middle of the left hand lane, on the highway, when a police car put on their lights behind him. Police officer got out of his vehicle really quickly - and looked pissed. After about 5 seconds of instruction, the guy pulled off to the right breakdown. Driver looked to be about 30 … not sure what I expected, but not that. 🤣

[deleted] We talked about rotaries on here a little while back. I was saying how the one in Everett , Santili Circle where Home Depot and Target are used to be so easy to get through. Now the state ruined it with traffic lights and painted lanes plus a lane through the middle now. Also the Drum Hill rotary where they painted lines that go no where and crossover other lanes that are solid not dotted lanes when u try to follow the signs. Rotary in Reading off of 128 is a shit show as well now that they painted lines everywhere.

It make me laugh to see the solid lines worn away by people changing lanes because the lanes are wrong.

Sounds like they were in the right place to me.
