Why does WalMart drive me nuts?

I think it starts before I am even in the building.  People in the parking lot driving - not allowing pedestrians to cross.  Pedestrians who walk down the middle of the road - not allowing vehicles to go around.  The WalMart greeter?!  I am yet to grasp this job.  I can count maybe 3 times I've actually been greeted.  And of those 3 times maybe one time I was warmly greeted.  If you actually need help finding something - Good Luck!  Most of the time the staff are MIA and when you do see one they don't know where the Velvetta is either and won't bother to find out for you.  (On a side note - why isn't Velvetta kept near the other cheeses?) 

Have you ever noticed that employees rarely give you the right of way?  They are on a mission to get where they are - regardless of who they cut-off.  Ever get a cashier who looked you in the eye?  Ever have one that actually had a personality?  Ever have one actually THANK YOU for spending a couple of hundred of your hard earned dollars? Ever notice how many items ring up for the wrong price there also?  It's insane! 

Why do we put up with this?  I don't know why I return there.  Everytime I leave I swear I'm never going back. 

I've been working on being a better Christian/mom/person.  So when I get cut off in the parking lot - I try to stop for a second and think - "If only that person was a Christian - would they have given me the right of way?"  Would "I" have given that person the right of way?  I try to make sure and look the greeter in the eye and say "Hi" with a big ol' smile on my face.  I try to put my cart in the cart return area instead of leaving it next to the car.  When I see an employee rushing by I try to stop and let them pass - since they are in a hurry and working a crummy-paying job and I really can take as long as I want to shop.  I guess my point is this - I need to change me first.  I can choose to be an example of Christ and love everyone more than I love myself and possibly plant a seed for Christ in doing so - but boy is it hard at WalMart!  lol

Remember to pray today!  God misses & loves you!
