This is quiet an unusual story of a senior citizen who had one of the shortest careers at Walmart.
It was just 2 hours into his first day when all of a sudden he got fired. What was the reason on would wonder? Well lets just say it will make you burst with laughter.
Many people who have read this story believe that his boss took the correct action, but others are convinced he should have backed up his employee.
I am pretty sure you all will have your own opinion, but let’s start at the very beginning of the events that took place.
The elderly man had served in the military and had only recently retired. His life now revolved around sitting at home alone with no one to talk to, he was having difficulty adjusting to this type of lifestyle as he was used to having contact with people. So he took it upon himself to go and find a part-time job.
After numerous days of job hunting he eventually landed a job as a greeter with the well known American discount store Walmart. Unfortunately his time there did not last long.
Below is the hilariously funny story of how it happened (in his own words):
“So after landing my new job as a Walmart greeter, a good find for many retirees, I lasted less than a day…About two hours into my first day on the job, a very loud, mean-looking woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance. I said pleasantly, ‘Good morning and welcome to Walmart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?’ Of course, her children were years apart, and while they shared common features, they certainly didn’t look like each other.The woman stopped yelling long enough to say, ‘Hell no, they ain’t twins. The oldest one’s nine, and the other one’s seven. Why the hell would you think they’re twins? Are you blind or stupid?’ So I replied, ‘I’m neither blind nor stupid, Ma’am. 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.”

Second grade teacher Jen Beason asked her students to write about an invention they wished had never been invented.
Four of Beason’s students wrote that they wished their parent’s phones had never been invented. Why? Because their parents spend more time staring at their phones than they do talking to their kids.
Beason posted about her students’ responses in a Facebook post, “I don’t like the phone because my [parents] are on their phone every day … I hate my mom’s phone and I wish she never had one,” said a student in a picture Beason’s posted.
Many others weighed in. A fellow teacher wrote, “We had a class discussion about Facebook and every single one of the students said their parents spend more time on FB then they do talking to their child. It was very eye opening for me,” Abbey Fauntleroy commented.
It’s a sobering reminder that our kids need our time and our attention. It’s time to put down our phones and plug in our children’s lives.
Set aside time each night to devote to your children. Put the phone away, out of reach, so you won’t be tempted to use it. Your children deserve your undivided attention and time.
Age is just a number, as they say. But we all know that isn’t strictly true. As we grow older, it isn’t just the number that changes. Wrinkles creep in, you start to find grey hairs and your skin begins to sag. There’s nothing wrong with any of that, of course – there are plenty of beautiful pensioners out there!
60 year old Cindy didn’t feel beautiful. As her birthday approached, she decided it was time for a makeover. She wanted the image she saw in the mirror to match how she felt on the inside. So she contacted makeover expert Christopher Hopkins, and asked him to make her beautiful.
The result left both Cindy and her husband in shock…
Cindy hadn’t visited a salon in a while, and her hair felt dull and lifeless. On top of that, she had no idea how to do her make up to compliment her age. She hoped that Christopher could help her with that.

Before Cindy sat in the stylist’s chair, she and her husband described their expectations on camera. Cindy had a lot of expectations, and her husband said that he didn’t want to influence what she decided to do with her look, only support her.
“I don’t want to give her my influences, this is her gift. She’s the canvas, she can paint the canvas the way she wants,” he explains.

Cindy wanted to be beautiful, but she still wanted to look natural. She also wanted to learn a simple make up routine that she could fix herself in the mornings.
Christopher cut and colored her hair. Then he showed her how to apply simple make up that compliments her skin type.
When everything was ready, Cindy’s husband got to see the final result. Do you think he was surprised?

She looks like a new person! Don’t you think?

Reader Marie K. sent us recently forwarded us this story. It’s worth taking a second of your day to read.
My boss drove a luxury car everyday, and it was my duty to greet him and to open the gates for him, as I worked as a watchman in his villa. But he never responded back to my greetings.One day he saw me opening the garbage bags outside the villa in search of any leftover food. But as usual, he never even looked at me, it was like as if he never saw anything.The very next day I saw a paper bag at the same place, but it was clean and the food inside was covered well. It was fresh, like someone had just brought it from the supermarket. I didn’t care where it came from, I just took the paper bag and I was so happy.Every day I found this paper bag at the same place with fresh vegetables and all the food we needed at home. This became my daily routine. I was eating and sharing this food with my wife and kids. I was wondering who this fool could be. How could he forget his paper bag full of fresh food everyday?One day there was a big problem in the villa, and I was told that my boss has died. There were too many guests coming to the villa that day and I didn’t find the bag of food, so I thought that one of the guests must have taken it. But the same thing happened the 2nd day, the 3rd day and the 4th day.It went on like this for a few weeks and I found it difficult to provide food for my family, so I decided to ask the wife of my boss for a raise in my salary or else I would quit my job as a watchman.After I told her, she was shocked, and asked me, how come you never complained about your salary for the last 2 years? And why is this salary not enough for you now? I gave her so many excuses but she was never convinced!Finally in the end, I decided to tell her the truth, I told her the entire story of the bag of groceries, and as to how it was my daily provision. She then asked me when the mystery bags stopped appearing. I told her after the death of her husband. And then I realized that I stopped seeing the paper bag immediately after the death of my boss. Why didn’t I ever think of this before? It was my boss who was providing this for me, all along. I guess I never thought that a person who never even replied to my greetings could ever be so generous.His wife started to cry, and I told her to please stop crying, and that I’m really sorry that I asked for a raise, I didn’t know that it was your husband who was providing me with the meals, I’ll remain as a watchman and be happy to provide my service.His wife told me, “I’m crying because I’ve finally found the 7th person my husband was giving this bag full of food. I knew my husband was giving to 7 people everyday, I had already found the 6 people, and all these days I was searching for the 7th person. And today I found out.”From that day onward, I started to receive the bag full of food again, but this time his son was bringing it to my house and giving it to my hand. But whenever I thanked him, he never replied. Just like his dad!One day, I told him THANK YOU in a very loud voice! He replied back to me to please not be offended when he doesn’t reply, because he has a hearing problem, just like his dad.”
A teacher from Mueller Elementary in Wichita, Kansas knows that education alone is not enough to get her students excited to go to school, so she decided to create a class ritual that is dubbed the coolest way to attract her students to become eager to come to her class.

Even more impressive, the handshake does not only consist of shaking hands, but Jerusha and her students can be seen doing every popular move from high-five to the trending dab.
She says that the personalized handshake is created to represent her sincere feelings towards every one of her students.

Police officers around the nation have been participating in what is called the “Lip Sync Challenge” – and this time it was the Sherman Police Department of Texas who decided to show off their skills.
While we’ve seen many different acts, from “Uptown Funk” to Frozen’s “Do You Want to Build a Snowman,” these officers decided to go a little more old-school and bring in a classic movie scene. Although instead of in a bar, it takes place in a donut shop.
Facebook/Sherman Texas – Classic Town. Broad Horizon.
It all begins at Hot N Creamy Donuts where the cops have stopped to grab a snack. The establishment is filled of Sherman PD officers, but there happens to be one pretty lady up at the counter who’s just a regular customer.
A group of 4 men sitting at a table start discussing the Lip Sync Challenge and what they should do for it. But as it turns out, a lot of great ideas have already been taken by other departments and they really want their idea to be unique.

That’s when one of the officers spots the blonde stranger at the counter. His eyes light up as he turns to his fellow officer and says,
“Wow. Hey, look at that… She’s lost that lovin’ feeling.”
The man replies that “no she hasn’t” – but that doesn’t stop the first cop from getting out of his chair and heading towards the customer – and of course Officer “Goose” quickly follows.
Do you know where this one is going by now?
The officer then taps the woman gazing at the pastry items on the shoulder. Looking confused she spins around, and that’s when it gets exciting…

Using a donut instead of a microphone, the officer starts lip syncing to “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin.'” However, it’s not the sound of The Righteous Brothers, he’s mimicking the famous scene from the movie Top Gun lip syncing to Tom Cruise’s voice!
After a moment Officer “Goose” joins in, followed by the entire restaurant full of Sherman PD officers. It’s a classic scene that still makes you blush as the woman has a whole room of people singing “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin'” just to her.
These officers definitely deserve points for creativity as their Top Gun performance is so much fun to watch. In fact, it’s been viewed more than 7 million times already!

Sometimes a selfie is so fun to take and we have to go back and look at it to remember the amazing moment.
These four sons were together at a Dodger’s baseball game when they decided it would be funny to send their moms a selfie of the four of them together enjoying the game.
The mom’s got the last laugh!
The moms were also together at the same time so they created their own selfie to celebrate this moment.
This is what they sent. What do you think?
We think it was perfect! They paid attention to every detail right down to the direction of the baseball caps! The moms took every pose to the extreme, the furrowed brow, the clenched fist, the drink, as well as the thumbs up.
This is one selfie their sons will likely keep on their phones for a long time to come!
One Reddit user, ibarabi, said it reminded them of this image of two parents spoofing their son’s Facebook picture:
Some parents seem to have a lot of fun recreating pictures of their kids and think it’s pretty funny, but the kids might disagree.
Here’s a whole family getting involved in recreating a selfie:
When your brother takes a selfie and posts it what do you do? Well these brothers and father decided to go for the same look. Are they all superhero fans with the same shirt?
Have you ever spoofed someone’s selfie? Post them in the comments we would love to see them!
But let’s be honest — it’s sometimes hard to avoid hearing other people’s conversations. Especially in tight spots such as on buses, subways and airplanes.
That’s exactly where this story begins when one passenger happened to overhear another conversation between two men.
After the conversation Denny Kukich, knew what he’d heard was amazing…
Here is his story:
“I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight. ‘I’m glad I have a good book to read. Perhaps I will get a short nap,’ I thought.Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. I decided to start a conversation.Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, ‘Which do you like best – beef or chicken?’‘Chicken,’ I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to the front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from first class.
‘This is your thanks..’After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. ‘I saw what you did. I want to be part of it. Here, take this.’ He handed me twenty-five dollars
"I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight. 'I'm…
Not long after, I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle. He was searching the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was not looking for me! I noticed he was looking at the numbers only on my side of the plane. He got to my row and stopped, smiled, held out his hand and said, ‘I want to shake your hand.’ Quickly unfastening my seatbelt I stood and took the Captain’s hand.With a booming voice he said, ‘I was a soldier and I was a military pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I never forgot.’ I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of the passengers.Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand, wanting to shake mine. He left another twenty-five dollars in my palm.When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a word. Another twenty-five dollars!Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five dollars. ‘It will take you some time to reach the base.. It will be about time for a sandwich. God Bless You.’Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of their fellow travelers.As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer for their safe return. These soldiers were giving their all for our country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little…A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to ‘The United States of America ‘ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.’That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.’ ”
THANK YOU to all the service men and woman that give everything to this great country of ours. Give them a round of applause, comment “Thank you” in the comments!
