What I Think About When Pushing Carts At Walmart

There comes to be a time at Walmart where there is either no cart attendant on duty or the attendant isn't feeling the best.  Then because I'm usually the only minor male associate, basically the only guy who won't hurt himself doing it, I get sent outside to clear the corrals.  This is why you see me out in the parking lot more often than in the store now. 

Now of course, pushing carts gives you a lot of time to think about life and it's various adventures.  So, here is what I think about when I'm doing one of the heaviest labor jobs in the entire Walmart store.

  • I can't wait to go college!
  • Where am I going to go to college?
  • I wonder what's on TV tonight?
  • Oh no! Don't tell me that's due tomorrow morning! When am I going to get that done?!!!
  • I hope things are going well at home!
  • I remember that one time at Storybook....
  • I can't wait to get out of here!
  • I can't wait to go back inside!
  • Aw rats! There goes another long line of carts towards a car! Run!!!! 
  • Does girl X think I'm cute?
  • Does girl X like me? 
I know this is a pretty pointless post, but sometimes it's a good thing to express what you truly think about while doing tasks from menial to extremely laborous.  That being said, I hope to be with Walmart as an employee for a long time yet.

Here's what you do in your college public speaking class.  These videos are me when I gave the speeches.  We were asked to pick a community issue, from which I chose the EBT Program and how it needs reform, and then I later collaborated with Andrew Olfelt to give a speech on education reform here in America.  I hope you enjoy the speeches :) Speech of Introduction - Given 9/9/2016 Informative Speech - Given 10/7/2016 Team Persuasive Speech - Given 11/18/2016

A Post About Snow

Image
Snow is something many of us seem to be bi-polar about, myself included.  We love it when the first snowfall of the year graces it's way through our area, but by March we're sick of it and ready for Spring.  It coats the roads, causes car accidents, and sends people to supermarkets in droves, because everyone's worried that this will be the last time they ever make it out of their house for the next few days, which never really seems to be the case thankfully. Regardless of that though, lots of us love a good snow.  Think of the things we have to be thankful for when the snow flies.  We are now able to go (if there's enough snow), sledding, skiing, have snowball fights, and build snowmen. There are tons of things to do when that first winter storm hits, and we should enjoy it while we can.  I've been regretting not being able to take part in Winter activities these past few years due to my numerous prior commitments, but maybe this will be the year

TikTok: Why.... Just Why?

Image
It's a day off and I'm sitting at home scrolling through the Snapchat stories of my friends and co-workers.  I'm just leaving one person's story and moving onto the next, but first I have to watch an advertisement, because Snapchat needs to make money somehow doesn't it? I look at the screen, and for some reason a teenaged dude is just chilling there in a white suit and clown makeup lip syncing to some song I've never heard of before.  The screen is split though, so you know someone else must be coming to join him, right?  Well low and behold not even five seconds later another teenager in a black suit with his hair groomed to resemble a sheep and blue/black skin steps in and starts lip syncing to another part of the song where a different person seems to sing.  The ad cuts out not long after that, and I'm back with my Snapchat stories. If you haven't guessed already, the ad is for smartphone app TikTok , which allows it's users to video rec
