Bullshit.Those stories no longer happen.
Not…Bullshit.

When’s the last time you heard of this type of occurrence?Meh, I disagree.
Not sure how being an Orthodox Jew makes you privy to anything special. I know, literally, thousands of as a result of a military career, a career in the music industry and then my business career, and I'm a recovering Catholic...
Not…
Businesses are too big today to give such regard to someone at the bottom of the ladder.
I work with an ex-chef and he would rather chop off his nuts than work 18 hours a day managing even one restaurant.There are literally dozens of independently owned restaurants in St. Augustine, where the restaurant in the video is located. Any one of them could follow that same path, and they're not "too big today to give such regard to someone at the bottom of the ladder"...
You're so full of shit your breath stinks.My Walmart constantly has a police car parked out front. Most Walmarts do. That cop is somewhere around the store, either upstairs where they watch the customers from overhead, or on the floor. I fucking guarantee you that if the cop was standing next to the receipt guy you would comply. You're only not complying because you don't see the receipt guy as a threat.
That doesn't make you right. It just makes you an asshole.

I was thinking along the lines of a business where you can become big and have other people work for you.I pointed out O'Steen's simply because it's a local example. It would be ignorant to believe it no longer happens.

Mind you, I know people who love doing it but they look like shit by the time they hit 60.
I say to each their own.

He has an AWESOME ouija board.How do you know?
So we went from a claim that 'those stories no longer happen' about a self made man in the restaurant business to a completely unrelated claim because he showed that your statement was bullshit. A claim that is still bullshit as a restaurant has no size limits. Trappers is an example in my area. The owner went from working a sushi counter at another sushi joint to running 5 restaurants. And still growing.I was thinking along the lines of a business where you can become big and have other people work for you.
Smug As a Bug Under a Rug, Until SquishedWHat are you talking about?
Why would I be next? My job cannot be done by a machine. Literally impossible until they develop fully humanoid A.I. with arms/legs/ etc.

Becoming a Starter on a Last-Place TeamWork hard, educate yourself, and you can rise above lowly jobs at Walmart and yours and you won't have to be so jealous of people who are more successful than you.

Scrooges Are As Sociopathic As Judges Soft on CrimeIf the scenario that you describe was what is happening at Walmart, I would agree. However, what I have witnessed at our Walmart does not follow your description. In our store, there are more employees tending to customers in the kiosks than there were at cash registers prior to the change. Adding to those employees are the receipt checkers. I don't see the reduction of manpower. Pilferage is also on the increase in WA, in particular, because they charge for bags that many people choose not to purchase, so it is difficult to tell who has paid and who hasn't as the unbagged items leave the store. The cashiers are a cost of doing business that is already figured into the prices. Also, those kiosks purchase and installation costs are not free. Now if Walmart discounted my order by $15/hr divided by my checkout time, I might think differently but we both know that will not happen.
