I hope people understand those folks are actually just trying to do a job as they're told to do it. people making an ass out of their self does not help. and then that gives the workers a bit of an attitude when they got to deal with the pain in the ass public... Agree............and at least they're working instead of sitting on their azzes and drawing welfare

I’ve never been asked for my receipt when leaving Walmart, and I shop there 1-2 times a month.

I see quite a few senior citizens working at the Walmart in Helena. I make it a point to be nice to them. I have no idea what difficulties they must be going through to be working in WM at their age.

There's a fellow in our community that's close to 80, and works at Walmart. I suspect he has to as his wife is an invalid and I know that they have incurred some high medical costs. I admire him for his work ethic.

Cool.
Let you in on a little secret - you're not obligated to stop and talk on the way out. Don't have to be a dick, don't even have to respond. Just walk on out the door and go about your business.

I rarely run into a Walmart employee who's and ahole. They are dealing with aholes all day and I guess it finally gets to some of them. But the ones I run into are helpful and courteous. I went to Walmart an Payson AZ, and put an ice chest and some other stuff in my cart. I get to the self check out and I scan all the stuff that was in the ice chest, but realized on the way out that I hadn't scanned the ice chest. So I went back and started doing that and a guy slips in beside me and pokes some buttons on the register keypad, and stepped back. He smiled and said he just gave me a 10% discount for being honest. He was an employee was watching for thieves at the check out area. Meanwhile there were probably 10 other aholes somewhere in the store ripping them off. They had to close down a Walmart in ABQ because of thieving. I remember back during the covidiocy when everything was locked down. Walmart and the other grocery stores (and the trucks and gas stations, etc, that supplied them) all stayed open and kept us fed. Everybody was freaking out and wearing masks and lining up for the shots, and small businesses and state offices were closed, and you had to wait outside in the cold to get into Walmart because they were forbidden from having more than X number of people inside the store at a time, and people are dying by the thousands all over the world. The Walmart employees and others like them, plus all the smaller business people that were allowed to, kept us alive during all that miserable crap. Hats off to them.

Why do you people shop at stores you don't like? Walmart drove the other stores out of rural areas. Some folks drive a long way, to get to Walmart. Other stores are even further. You don't have to let the Finger F--k YOUR stuff. After you pay, it's your stuff, burden of proof of misdeeds is on them. Not you. "No thanks, I know what is in there!" And don't change pace. I've never had to say it, never been ask. Many years ago my wife would be anxious as heck leaving, they checked her and her sister often. First I even heard of them doing was as we left the register and she saw them at the door. I was instantly passed, i'm not a thief and see this as almost an accusation. The lady looked as we walked up and i looked her in the eyes, and held them. She didn't say a word. If you belong to any of the shopping clubs, this doesn't apply. Their right to search is usually in the membership agreement, you consented when you joined. When we were Sam's members they only got me a few times, my pissed off face usually kept them at bay. PS. I'm told I have male RBF. Beach vacation several years ago, we are walking through a store buying groceries the first day there. A black guy going the other way looked at me and said "You look like one pissed off son of a bitch". The kids and I busted out laughing, i wasn't mad. It's just how I look. Keeps folks at bay, a good thing.
Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!

Old guy checked my receipt on my way out of Wal-Mart last summer. So I showed it to him and said; "See? I'm good to go", and then wound up talking to him a bit. I asked if he wanted to see if my receipt matched what was in my hand. He said they make him check the date on the receipt ever since some A-holes would buy something legally one day and then come back the next day with yesterdays receipt, grab the same thing off the shelf and walk out with yesterdays receipt in their hand. So now, I bet they probably come back and pull that chit later the same day.

Yes it may be annoying but is it really that much of a hassle to take a few seconds to show them, after all its not like they are actually rooting through your bags etc. I have noticed the only time they even ask is if I have larger items in the cart that arent bagged. Probably due to scumbags scanning and bagging some stuff while "forgetting" to scan the larger, probably more expensive items. As I said it literally takes a few seconds and if that is all you have to beotch about in a day, IMO you had a fairly good day!!
