Sunday: At a store waiting to check out-it was a TJMAXX and they have a long curving path to the check outs OR you can go straight to them if they are not busy. There were less than 10 customers in the entire store. There were 3 checkers open, NO LINE AT ALL, and 2 people checking out, so I proceeded to the empty register. The older man next to me begins chastising me for being a rule breaker and skipping the long path to the registers. I laughed, thinking he was joking. He then began taking my items I had placed to be rung up off the counter and starts putting them back into the cart, telling me I WILL check out the CORRECT path way. The cashier assured him I was fine and that there were NO other customers. He then proceeded to cuss us both out, and then left.
Last night, I went to a Walmart to buy groceries with my daughter-after our huge total was rung up-the register froze. The cashier stated her register had been screwing up for weeks and hadn't been fixed. So she called over a CSM (who lied and represented herself as the assistant manager) and the CSM began yelling at the cashier that she must have unplugged the computer and made the cashier cry. I stated she had done nothing to the register and got ready to move to another register and asked if we should do that or could we just pay and leave since they already had the items totalled up. The CSM began SCREAMING at me that we were just to stay put. I asked her to please not yell at me and get me the manager. Of course manager wasn't in. I would have left, but daughter and I had just spent an hour loading up the cart and she needed food for home. So, 45 VERY UNHAPPY minutes later, we left, and the CSM was a complete bitch when I asked for the manager's name and number and stated he wouldn't care how she treated us-so I guess Walmart Corporate is getting an email from me later.
Ok, I am done whining and feeling sorry for our family, but it was kind of a sucky weekend with all the craziness. I need HUGS.
wow...what a terrible time you had of things...I'm so sorry, but also very relieved your daughter is ok.
I hope this week proves to be much better for you.
My tolerance for stupid shit is getting less and less.
What a scary weekend. I'm glad you and your daughter are safe.
I'm so glad you and your daughter are okay.

Seems we had a few crazies here in Wichita this weekend. My first thought was it the same crazy guy that ran from police and drowned.
OMG - what a weekend!! I'm sorry you and your daughter had to endure that but am glad that you both are safe.

Holy Cow... what a weekend you had...

DEFINITELY report the Wal-Mart incident to corporate. Don't let them keep that "in-house".

I'm sorry about your stressful weekend. Sounds like what happens when there's a full moon!
And on another note, that's just one of the MANY reasons I DO NOT shop at Walmart! DS had a very similar experience there just before Christmas. He felt so bad for the poor cashier stuck in the middle that he went to another store, bought her a Christmas plant and took back to her. She flinched when she saw him at her register again because he had been so angry (at the management person), but he explained that he felt bad about what happened and wanted her to know he didn't blame her, but the CSM or Manager who handled it, and Merry Christmas. She was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say, just stood there holding it while he walked away.
ETA: She first tried to scan it because she thought he wanted to buy it, until he explained.
