This morning the wife and I were walking through the grocery aisles and saw a woman and a young child coming toward us . The woman was obviously having a very animated phone conversation with someone . Just as she passes us she says loudly " Just as long as she doesn't shit in my truck !"
We nearly lost it .

Watched a guy put an energy drink in his pocket, go to the bathroom, come out with out it and get another one.

And leave with it in his pocket

That's what we call the large mass of commuters driving from all over the NWA metroplex to their work at the huge Walmart HQ campus in the morning, and back in the afternoons. They primarily funnel onto one highway, and the resulting rush hour traffic (with frequent accidents) is horrendous.

Walmartians traveling to/from the Mothership.

I can only imagine being a manager or, just a supervisor, they're there full-time so they get to see a wide-swatch of these people. They're working the floor so, they can't hide or, insulate themselves from the day-to-day issues. The stories they must have, of human behaviors and actions must be endless...and pathetic.

Many subspecies exist. My two (NOT) favorites:

The little old ladies who get together in a gang, drafting each other with empty carts, like a possum and its kids; and

The coffee klatch of 4 or 5 people stopping to chat and blocking the end of the aisle and part of the cross-aisle. "Here's 20 bucks, go to a coffee shop..."
