As many of you know, I had ambitions of finding a simple

uncomplicated part-time job after retiring from my 'day job'.

Unfortunately, as I have gotten a little older I have become

a little less sensitive. So-- after landing my new job as a Walmart

greeter (a good find for many retirees) I lasted less than a day......


About two hours into my first day on the job a very

loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her

two kids-- yelling obscenities at them all the way through the

entrance. As I had been instructed, I said pleasantly 'Good morning and

welcome to Walmart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?'


The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say 'Hell no,

they ain't twins. The oldest one's 9 and the other one's 7. Why the hell

would you think they're twins? Are you blind or just stupid?'


So I replied 'I'm neither blind nor stupid Ma'am. I just

couldn't believe you got laid twice. Have a good day, and

thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.'


My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work."
