I no longer shop at Walmart
I know it is cheaper, but I just couldnt do it anymore. From employees (who often forget the customer is the reason they have a job) rudely blocking the aisles with their stocking (they have staff their 24/7 and now close at 11, stock at night then!), to simply not filling my prescription because it was written in a different city, I am done with them. Last year I would go shopping there and find half the aisles blocked by the workers. They acted like Im in the way. Sir, customers are why you have a job. Get out of my way!They wanted to save money by using self check out… got falsely accused of theft as a result. Manager acted surprised when he discovered I actually paid for everything in my bag. Another time, I was illegally detained for refusing to show my receipt (which, I am not required to grab anyways…the machine offers a no-receipt option). Fuck walmart employees. For the first time in my life, I support Jeff Bezos and will be using Amazon for ordinary items and Publix (a famous florida(and southeast-but primarily florida) supermarket) for my prescriptions. Walmart is an awful place to shop. Going on a full year now of no Walmart. Nearly a full year away from McDonalds and Taco Bell as well.
Threatening to call the police on me for something I didnt do, or being accused of seeing a pillmill doctor because I had to move and prefer to see my same doctor isnt a part of daily shopping I want to see normalized. Walmart: I hope you go bankrupt and close every store within my lifetime. I wont have any nostalgia for you! Mcdonalds: I remember when I was 18 and walked into an Orlando store with my highschool buddies. This location had a massive gameroom and I was impressed even as an adult. Lots of arcade games, etc. Now I can see you converting it into a grey ugly building with ruder employees and do it yourself ordering. Youve also tripled the prices but the workers think Im being dramatic when I get a burger that has been microwaved (cooking the vegetables and ruining the taste). I hope you go under too. I can get a burger and budweiser at some venues for cheaper than your stupid combos. It won’t be made by some idiot who thinks a microwaved and overcooked tomato is at all the same thing as a fresh one! And since I get the beer, I dont care about the extra wait as Ill be sipping on that. I prefer that to your SLOW drive throughs that take 20 minutes anyways! It’s no longer fast, no longer cheap, no longer gimmicky, and your restaurants are intentionally made to feel unwelcoming so that everyone gets drive throu. LOL. Hope to see you fold all your locations in my lifetime too. Speaking of pharmacies: why is it that only overdose is being considered (particularly when people are mostly ODing on fake fentanyl pills and not real pharmaceauticals) when UNDERdosing is a real concern with benzos? I am prone to seizures and the blackbox warning on my RX says not to underdose or I could die? Pharmacists don’t care about that though. They only care about the possibility of “overdoses from opioids”. My med is not an opioid and cant cause overdose unless taken with another drug like an opioid. Im a legit patient. I dont take opioids and am at risk for seizure. Frankly, let natural selection do its work on those who want to abuse dangerous combos. I say that coldly not because I think they deserve to die, but if anyone is going to come to harm, it should be the people taking dangerous combos to boost their “high” and not legit patients. Allowing legit patients to go into withdrawal seizures so someone stupid doesnt overdose is ridiculous. If I was president, Id simply declare the opioid “epidemic” to be a personal problem. As a libertarian, I believe people should be allowed to take risks and that the consequences of these risks should fall exclusively on them and not anyone else. If they want to take 10 pills that could possibly have fentanyl and mix it with benzos, that is their decision. Dont deny my legit RX because of that! We should not make policy restricting medication just because someone may mix it with some illegal street drugs. A pharmacist shouldnt be allowed to refuse prescriptions, they arent my doctor. Sure, they may say it helps prevent drug interactions, but mostly they use this “discretion” to deny controlled medication to people who need it. Did you know your pharmacist can refuse to fill a prescription for borth control/plan B/ hormone replacement just because they dont believe in those? Yeah, this needs to be stopped. A pharmacist is not a doctor. If I went online and told someone to not take meds their doctor gave them, Id get banned. But some pharm tech with less education than me is able to do that? Literally able to override an MD with only a bachelor’s? It would be an LOL if it wasnt true. |
Re: I no longer shop at Walmart
I’m moving this to “Why Me?” Because it seems like a better fit there.
You definitely raised a lot of good points there. I’m glad you at least have options on where to do your business so you’re not forced to go somewhere where you have issues. |
Re: I no longer shop at Walmart
There's a few shops I won't go back into either. Glad you know where to go to now.

I'm sorry about all of this and hope that everything works out for you.

Re: I no longer shop at Walmart
theres alot in your post
and i know im just a kid but what you want isnt the same as what your saying stockers think your in the way because you are because they are paid to stock at that time of day they cant stock only at night because people buy things and stores cant sell things that arent on shelfs im not accusing you of this but ive seen people yell at managers for not having stuff on the shelfs especially dots pretzels its really crazy how crazy people get over those but what i mean is some people like you get mad if they are stocking in the day because there in the way and other people get mad if they arent stocking in the day because then theres nothing on the shelf what are they supposed to do? they cant win and then strangers yell and critisise them ive seen pictures of mcdonalds with that stuff but then i look at whats on tiktok and insta and even youtube i had a friend HAD who got expelled because he wanted to do licks he got caught while trying to rip a mirror off the bathroom wall wouldnt a switch of whatever in a mcdonalds be the perfect target for a lick? think about it the cashiers would be getting yelled at for putting pickles on the burger the cooks would be doing whatever they do while the food cooks no ones keeping a eye on little timmy as he rips the switch free for himself as for the drugs... well i dont take drugs unless i got the flu but i do know that the reason someone behind a counter can say no to a doctor isnt because there mean its because theres a goverment standerd that means that there are certain rules they gotta follow the reason they have to follow these rules is because of something bad that happened like you know how the only reason theres a sign on a door is because someone was dumb enough to do what the sign says dont do? well someone else before you did something really stupid and rather than risk lawsuits its easier to make everyone else comply you say now that you beleve everyone should face the consaquinses of there actions but if your willing to get mad at walmart and mcdonals and i apologize for accusing you of something when you arent here to defend yourself i think you would get mad at your pharmacy if something bad happened to you rather then just saying thems the brakes again im really sorry for being mean i dont know you and i dont know what you went thru or are going thru and if your going thru bad things right now i hope they get better soon but what you say you beleve isnt the same as how youve been acting in what you shared i mean... you were upset that mcdonalds microwaves there burgers when thats the fastest and cheepest way to heat them isnt that a libertarians goal? do things the most effesient way possible without worrying about standards? |
