4. I always make sure to be extra nice to the old folks working at WM.
They often look like they need it.

5. I've been to WalMart twice and I was Prince Charming to everyone
Both times it was due to an ex-girlfriend who liked to shop there and asked me to go with her.

I was nice to anyone who interacted with me. Whatever feelings I may have about how the business is run has nothing to do with someone who is trying to be nice to me. I always...100% of the time...return NICE with MORE nice.

8. The greeter, at the Walmart where i used to live, was a lovely man named Larry.
He was always friendly and cheery and would sing to the customers. "When Irish eyes are smiling...." He worked there well over a decade and likely still does.

10. That's the good side of the job.
I think a lot of the elderly workers just like to talk to someone and smile at people. Larry sounds like a great fella.

7. That is not considered a fringe benefit.
I would ask for hazardous duty pay for that.

11. Can't vote. Al Qaeda seems to have multiple number 1's, 2's, and 3's...
...so I'm confused as to what even constitutes an Al Qaeda #2?

12. If you haven't been following Pearls Before Swine this week, you need to.
Go to news.yahoo.com and select "comics" from the menu across the top. They're listed alphabetically.
