    Yeah ... since they stated that they could see store employees who looked shocked, it's unclear why they think boycotting the store is in order. It'd be like boycotting a store because a skinhead vandalized it with a swastika.

    Here is a quote of one of the women:

    Anyone want to take odds the only thing she's comfortable with is $$$$$$$$$??

    The next announcement should have been "Attention Walmart shoppers!
    High pressure fire hoses and Purina Doberman Chow are half off today."

    Anywho, is it just me or.......

    I know, I know. I live in Turnersville, NJ and have worked for Walmart.

    IT WASN'T ME. FOR REAL! :ohboy:

    Their boycott of Wal-Mart won't last.

    Eventually they will return for the lower prices and the variety of merchandise on sale. Where else are they gonna shop?

    Resistance is futile.

    What I find truly distressful is the amount of people here who know the inner workings of the Wal-mart PA system. :eek:

    Which would still be an incredibly dick headed thing to do and if it was an employee should result in their termination for being too damn stupid to continue breathing.

    They'll probably put a code on the PA after this (if they hadn't already). Therefore for my next shenanigans at Wal*Mart, I'll bring a blue vest and a megaphone. :cylon:

    I suspect that those professing to be harmed are looking forward to potential litigation with the chance of monetary rewards.

    Ever look at a Walmart phone. Lift the receiver, hit the button that says PAGE and talk. A caveman could do it.

    No they won't. Trust me, after their latest and greatest "idea," and implementation of said idea which is not to be known publicly, the PA is their ONLY method for which an emergency (such as a security, medical emergency, fire, or an observance of armed robbery) can be announced by ANY person working. Walmart isn't going to risk a lawsuit over someone dying b/c somebody forgot their PA code.

    I wouldn't make it such a half hearted attempt at trolling there, but my focus would be more on the light brownies (Middle-Eastern, Pakis or Spics) than the Darkies.

    Trolling Negroes is sooooo 2004.

    One does not mess with racial sensitivities in the public light.

    I once had to give out free product to a customer as an apology because this gentleman and his wife overheard some other customers using racial language. Mind you, there was no fault on the part of our staff; the issue was between one customer and another. But because it happened on our premises, we’re expected to take responsibility and compensate for the “offense.”

    I’m accustomed to giving out free product and pretending to apologize for all kind of retarded non-reasons, that’s what I’m paid to do. But it’s still a little mind-boggling that someone feels the need to tattle to the management about what other customers are saying and then demand compensation for their “ruined evening.” Grow the fuck up.

    Could be. Is Tasvir secretly black? His race talk is classic homosexual-in-the-closet type stuff. I'm guessing grampa was a black British soldier . . .

    That's not trolling, Tavir; that's just heartfelt speculation. You display all the symptoms of someone who's in denial about something he's absurdly and unreasonably ashamed of. You're blacker than Volpone is gay.

    I really wish that some people didn't take every opputunity to be offended by the actions of each and every idiot. Should someone's sense of dignity be so fragile? The people at Walmart seem to be sincere in their apologies as well as trying to find the culprit... Why not just leave it at that? Why the boycott?

    I know I wasn't there and if I were, I'd probably be pissed too, but why let the asshole win? That's exactly what he wanted, right? That bitch is probably somewhere reading the national headline they just gave him so tickled with glee that he's about to ejaculate...

    right, Tasvir?

    I'm sure Wal-Mart is shaking in their shoes at the loss of two customers.

    Customers who will slither back if you ignore them long enough at that. :jayzus:

    Ah Megatron Megatron...

    Like some kind of Jekyll and Hyde.

    Every time you think he's reformed and all that stupid nasty shite was in the past he suddenly switches over and with a hearty blast of "NIGGERNIGGERNIGGER" plunges forthwith right back to square one. The bad old Tasvir is back.

    Then after a while it seems he's come round again but those who think it so don't know what's just around the corner... like a long period volcano that sleeps for a millenia or two or ten, lulling the nearby hew-mons, with their dinky little lifespans that burn out within 70 or 80 orbits into a false sense of security, only to explode suddenly upon them when they least expect.

    No, siree. He's an innocent victim. :dayton:

    Anyone can grab one of them phones and make an announcement. You don't have to work for the store, or some geek could unlock the telephone system that is now part of the I/T systems at most corps and make that announcement from a world away. Only a simple idiot would think it had to be someone that worked for the store. I once grabbed one of them phones and asked for all Walmart union representatives to meet in the upstairs lounge ;) Now that was fun :lol:
