What's all this poo-talk.

Did Crissy Snow leave her mark all over Houston once again?

I must have lived a charmed life, I've never once come across the poop on the walls or clothing. THANK GOD!!!!!

Wal-Mart - ack. I can understand if you really need to save a few nickels, but I swear if you watch for specials elsewhere it ain't that great. Plus, at least in my case, they are all really far away (and the closest ones are Meyer Park and Dunvale, and unless you're conducting a study in human behavior, no thanks).

Whenever I see the logo, though, I always think of the mean face from this movie

But those locations are excellent examples of Houston's racial and ethnic diversity!

Yeah...dislike Walmart too.(with poo or sans poo...doesn't matter) Crappy merchandise (no pun intended!! )...ewwww

On the extremely rare occasion I find myself there (maybe once a year, usually at Christmas for wrap, etc) once in the store facing a barage of guys wearing "wife beater" tank tops....stuff thrown all over the aisles..

..I remember why I prefer to shop at Target

LOL...You nailed it!
Makes me itch just thinking about walking into one of their stores! Even the new stores seem to go down hill fast!

IMHO Walmart employees are treated very poorly. In terms of customer service, you get what you pay for I guess.
It's been said that Walmart is one of the biggest drains on welfare/foodstamps. They encourage their employees to apply for welfare/foodstamps/medicade It almost seems like they take pride in that fact. I posted various info about Walmart and it's effects on the Florida economy over in the Florida forum but I'm too lazy to look up all the info now.

I worked at Walmart for about 3 days when I was 18, Not something I'd ever do again and for minnimum wage to boot ? No thanks.
