The Love Affair is O-V-E-R

I used to love Wally World. Before I moved, I was close to a really nice one. Now, I'm just as close to one that's a shithole. I had a list of 15 things I wanted to get. Only 15. I know it's dangerous to just cruise around WM because you come home with all kinds of crap you didn't really need. So, I started off with determination. First, everywhere I went shelves were empty. I wanted Cheer laundry detergent. The only thing they had on the detergent aisle was 3 types of Gain, that horrible cheap stuff called X-tra!, All and Arm & Hammer. W.T.F.??? No Cheer, no Tide, nothing else. Sure, they had places for those products, but it was like they had a dollar sale on aisle 10 because there wasn't a single container to be had. But I'll tell you what they did have. A big freakin' mess. Because one of the HUGE containers of ALL had leaked/burst on the top shelf and had coated everything below it including products, shelves and the floor.

It was like this all over the place. I either got the last of the items (a Braun electric toothbrush, the last two Lean Cuisine Spaghetti dinners, Walk-Mart brand trash bags for goodness sakes!) or I couldn't get what I wanted. Then there were the lines. My God! They had open 7 registers for high volume buying people, 6 registers of 20 or less items and 2 registers of scan the crap yourself. I thought I was choosing the lesser of the evils by taking on the scan it yourself. Because honestly, I'm not half bad at it. I'm quick, efficient and I'm not gonna stand there looking at something like "how the hell did that end up in my cart?"

I was third in line. The lady at the register had a kid who thought it would be funny to scan things she'd already put into the bag. Little Johnny was getting on my last effin' nerve. The next lady didn't know what the hell was going on and ended up stiffing the joint one rose bush and a cordless phone system. Finally it was my turn. I walked out of there with almost 300 bucks worth of crap and I did it in under five minutes. The whole shopping/waiting for a freakin' register took me a grand total of 2 1/2 hours because of the hunt for items that the store wasn't carrying and the freakin' lines.

Management there oughtta be shot. Not enough people on registers, but there sure were a lot of fools pretending to stock shit in the aisles and no bags to be had in the produce section, HUGE gaps on the shelves. I seriously thought maybe they were trying to sell out for a move or something. The place was filthy. Next time, I'm going to Tar-jay and spend a little more for a clean store, relatively well stocked. Up yours Wally World!
