Walmart Revisited

I don't know who started The People of Walmart emails and photos but I find some of the entries pretty entertaining. People obviously dress up, run in and have their picture taken to be posted. Some of which are awfully funny.

And then, there are the real life Walmart people. The other day I saw a woman, probably in her late twenties. She was... heavy set, loud and her personal hygiene desperately needed attention. She was hot and sweaty in spite of her very small tank top and stretch shorts. The light colored fabric of her outfit was frayed, spotted and straining across her body and accented the fact that she chose to dispense with undergarments.

And then there were the puppies.

Some Hispanic girls had a box of cute little puppies by the front door. They were trying to sell/give them away. This lady bent over to pick one up and kiss it - offering an unfortunate view of her buttocks complete with a stain where she had neglected to finish the paper work...

I was caught somewhere between being appalled and heart broken that she should be in such a situation - with not a clue of what I could do to change her circumstances.

...

The People of Walmart pictures are not looking so humorous now.
