3 for Walmart...
A manager at Wal-Mart had the task of hiring someone to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who were equally qualified. He decided to call the four in and ask them only one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.
The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table, the interviewer asked, 'What is the fastest thing you know of?'
The first man replied, 'A THOUGHT!' It just pops into your head. There's no warning.
'That's very good!' replied the interviewer. 'And, now you sir?', he asked the second man.
'Hmmm...let me see 'A blink! It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of.'
'Excellent!' said the interviewer. 'The blink of an eye, that's a very popular cliché for speed.' He then turned to the third man, who was contemplating his reply.
'Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the wall there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture the light on the barn comes on in less than an instant. 'Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of'.
The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and thought he had found his man. 'It's hard to beat the speed of light,' he said.
Turning to Bubba, the fourth and final man, the interviewer posed the same question.
Old Bubba replied, 'After hearing the previous three answers, it's obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA.'
'WHAT!?' said the interviewer, stunned by the response.
'Oh sure', said Bubba. 'You see, the other day I wasn't feeling so good, and I ran for the bathroom, but before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already s**t my pants.'
Bubba is now the new greeter at a Walmart near you!
WalMart announced that sometime in this year it will begin offering customers a new discount item: WalMart's own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the wines at affordable prices in the $2 to $5 range.
Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of the WalMart brand into their shopping carts but, 'There is a market for inexpensive wine,' said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville. 'However, branding will be very important.'
Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the WalMart wine brands and varieties.
The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:
10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante
The beauty of Walmart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel).
P.S. Don't bother writing back to tell me that this is a hoax. I know possum is not white meat.
Two hours into my first day of work as a Walmart greeter, a nasty woman came in with her two kids. Seeing her being abusive and swearing harshly at them, I offered her a cart and said 'Good morning, welcome to Walmart. Nice kids, are they twins?' The mom answered, 'Hell no, they ain't twins. The oldest one's 9, and the other one's 7. Why the hell would you think they're twins? Are you blind or stupid?'
I replied, 'I'm not blind or stupid. I just can't believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day, and thank you for shopping at Walmart.'
My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work!
Happy Monday!

Those were great jokes, especially the last one.
Trader Joe's sells Two Buck Chuck, a cheap brand of wine.
Leave it to Bubba to come up with the best answer. The last joke was particularly enjoyable!
I hate to go to Wal-Mart.
My father is a greeter at Wal-Mart (86 yr old) and he tells me all the time that last one. quote "Peg these people, God love 'em, are the ugliest people collected all in one place" unqoute
I crack up because he always adds the "god love 'em" as though that makes it nicer to say.
Being a Wal-Mart greeter must take a person with a weird sense of humor and strong legs.
I think Rudolph is correct on both counts. My father had never even entered a wal-mart in his life but at 75 he was bored so he went to work there. I don't think I'd be that bored, ever.
The last joke was definitely best. And I used to buy a table wine that came in a bottle with a plain brown label and the name "Cheap Red Wine" stenciled on it. It was actually pretty good, although I don't think Wal-Mart carried it.
