It Was Glorious
Just did a drop off to a restaurant that buys their sandwich meat from Walmart. Not even name brand. Great Value brand. 12 lb of smoked ham. 12 lb of smoked turkey. Scientists question if it even is meat.
Instead of having me go around to the back where things are private, they have me come through the lobby. Lunch rush. Place is packed.
Kid at the counter sees me come in and yells across the lobby at me.
"What is all that?"
"Food delivery." I say.
Now customers are turning to see what these two guys are yelling about.
"From who?"
"Just down the road" I say, trying with every fiber of my being to not say the word Walmart and wondering how in God's name this kid could be so dense.
"Yeah but from where?"
Unable to dodge this bullet I spit it out seeing that I have at least eight pairs of eyeballs on me because now the customers are curious to see how this story ends.
"Walmart."
And like I knew whould happen, some guy yells out:
"This f---ing sh-t is from Walmart?!?"
Glorious indeed.
