Wal-Mart Greeter

Wait! Before you laugh and dismiss this as a dream job, I want you to hear why I think being a Wal-Mart greeter would be wonderful.

When I was a young man (not so young anymore), I worked for a Wal-Mart store in Oklahoma. I started out as a cashier but eventually was bumped to front-end manager. As front-end manager, one of my jobs was to oversee the greeter.

My greeter at Wal-Mart was the nicest lady on the planet. She always wore a smile and never complained about anything. Customers would be rude to her, people would throw a fit, but she just wore a smile.

I asked one of the other cashier's why our greeter was always in a good mood. She said, "Oh, she doesn't have to work. Her husbands a millionaire. She just does it to get out of the house and be with the common people."

That, my friend, is my dream job. Go to Wal-Mart everyday with a Million Dollars in the bank and smile at all the shoppers.
