Walmart endangering customers!!

I am livid.  Took the kids out to pick up some items, and the entire trip was a disaster.  Couldn't look at firearms, because Walmart has decided those can't be on display.  Oh well, guess someone else will get that business of mine.  Annoyed through the whole store by stupid floor signs telling me which end of an empty aisle I could or could not enter.  Because, gee, that matters....NOT.  Ignored those, as did most people.  No employees anywhere to ask for help locating items.  Ever.  If it's not in Electronics, forget getting help.  All that is bad enough. 

Still, managed to get what we needed, and went to check out.  One live cashier, ONE, for a LONG line of people waiting to check out.  Not a huge big deal, since the self checkout was closer to the door we entered.  Note, that door was open after 6pm, and we checked out and left before 7pm.  After checking out my own items, because they are too incompetent to have enough actual cashiers, we headed to the door, to find it blocked.  Literally blocked, with rows of carts, and other barriers.  When asked for an explanation, the employee had nothing other than, "You have to use the other door."  So inside an hour, they close and completely block an exit, and there is literally no reason to do this. 

By the time we reached the car, my breathing was not good, as asthma doesn't respond well to hotter temps and exertion combined.  But, hey, Walmart doesn't care.  They want sheep, not customers.  No help, not even a cashier.  The employees you can locate, you can't understand because of the stupid masks, and when you can understand them, they don't now anything useful anyway.  But, gee, I should forget all that, because they care about black lives, right?  Wrong!!  They don't care about anyone.  Blocking exits, endangering the lives of customers, and treating people like sheep who should wait on themselves, and be glad of the privilege to throw money at this corporation that destroys local businesses; that's how they show they "care". They even have the audacity to post a sign stating "free loading" for your car if you download their app.  Wow, like real grocery stores have always offered, forever, for free, with no app?  Thanks, but no thanks.  Well, they can care without me.  Nothing they sell that I can't get some other way. 

The sickening part is how many people just accept this sort of treatment, without complaint, as though it is normal and expected.  Well, it isn't.  It's rotten, its bad business, and I am sick and tired of this company treating customers like we belong to them.  I've had enough.
