Benefits of Rain

Rain and Snow.  These two things can be a blessing to anyone working in retail.  When it rains, less people are out driving, and that means less people driving to Walmart.  Less customers mean less carts to push and that means more time wandering aimlessly around the store doing returns.  Lightning is an automatic "come inside so you don't get struck by lightning while you're pushing enormous stacks of carts." 

The Beginning

A long time ago, I was attending a private college pursuing an engineering degree.  Long story short, my grades slipped and I had to drop out and move back home to Kansas.  Now, I go to public school and I push carts for Walmart.  Its not a bad job, I work with good people about my age, and the hours aren't that bad.  Its also not the dullest job in the world... Sometimes.
