Living for 41 hours in Wal-Mart

[mouser]

Kid lives 41 hours in Wal-Mart store.

Skyler Bartels kept looking over his shoulder. It's a habit he picked up living at the Windsor Heights Wal-Mart for three days.
Really living there. Eating, sleeping, checking out the DVDs, never leaving. The plan was to spend his entire spring break there. Under the radar.

Like him, I find myself doing a "Monk" moment and straightening the shelves of the world's most evil retailer. Wal-Mart management are some of the most vile and evil humans ever spawned. If you don't believe me, check the store memos on any given day.

Cool idea, anti-climactic in his delivery.  He should have stuck it out until told to leave.  It's a 24/7 store, he was purchasing the merch he took -- it was all legal.  You need more than 40 hours to make for anything truly interesting, I think.

Exactly... that Japanese guy that stayed for 48 hours in that 24/7 restaurant (never got to the check-out where he SHOULD have paid) before thrown out was more funny

I hadn't heard about that -- that's great.  He was given a free meal because he overstayed his welcome.  Note to self . . .
