So I'm not going to be on until roughly 5:30 Pacific time since I'll literally just be arriving home from work at that point.

Walmart fucking started Black Friday sales yesterday, and they're lasting for a whole week.  AND the store has promised every cash register will be open, so sales associates and backroom people had their hours severely cut so that the Front-End people can get all the 40 hours (Though luckily I'm cashier-trained.  I was only supposed to have 25 hours this Saturday-Friday week but managed to nab some cashier hours).

Oh, and I work until 10PM on Thanksgiving, so no feasting with my family...again...for the 4th year in a row.  Sam Walton would have NEVER allowed this, but his fucktarded greedy children decided money>family.

Then quit

You make that sound a lot easier than it is.

I quit, then what?  Most of the small businesses in this town have closed up shop either during the recession or too many Big Corporate companies built around them.  This town doesn't have many job opportunities and for now I need Walmart until I move.

Well if you need them then why complain?

I mean obviously its your right to complain if you like, But I just don't see why. If I was that upset about missing thanksgiving with my family (and I would be), I'd request off and if it wasn't granted, I just wouldn't show up.

Because like I said, Sam Walton would never allow this.  But his children chose money over associate loyalty/happiness.

And since Thanksgiving is now technically Black Friday for most retailers, I can't simply call out or not show up, because then I'd be fired.  Either way, quitting or getting fired, I'm fucked either way.  So I might as well hold out for about 4-5 more months.

As for the complaining, it's just also calls for caution for anyone that wants to work for Wal-Mart.

Good on them. I really hope this trend of opening stores as early as 6pm thanksgiving day for Black Friday phases out in a few years...
Not when you have people like these

"The point is to get the sales, because everybody is on a fixed income and we don't have that kind of money to splurge," Alva's husband said.

When stores open for Black Friday, Alva and Torres are hoping to get a 50-inch, high-definition TV for $199.

Fixed income MY ASS.

I have a gaming PC :U  Get yer cringe out of here lizard.

As for the 300gb, I think the Advanced Warfare game probably took up a lot of that memory too.  It gives me a code to download it, but I bet it's just somewhere locked in the console, already downloaded.
yeah, but of 300gb, how much could a single game reasonably take?

I really don't know.  I'm going to have CoD downloaded while I'm at work today, and if I come back and see more memory missing, I'm going to be pretty annoyed.

My friend and I can't connect for some reason when we tried to do co-op on CE. : I  I assume it's because of the server maintenance, because we can connect just fine and dandy to other games.

I got the 1tb, and 300GB was eaten up for the initial install.  Just....what the fuck.

Also the dashboard is a mess, just as I've heard.  It just feels like there's too much shit on there and it feels more like a freaking Windows PC...oh wait, it runs on Windows 8.  I forgot.

At least there's MCC to look forward to. :I

tl;dr, people used Wal-Mart's price-match to match PS4's being sold by an Amazon user and get a huge discount on them.

Pretty lulzy.

Valhalla awaits.


Seriously though a fucking eternity of battle and feast would be the only afterlife I could accept.

No matter what god is real, I'd just be glad there would probably be an afterlife.

This.

My Navy buddy/brother got hooked on Odinism ever since he joined the Navy, and has got me kind of caught up in it.  Viking Funerals, an afterlife of Feating and fighting.  It's all fucking awesome.

Until Ragnarok.  Fuck that.

And while it runs well, I enjoyed it more on PC...plus my friends on PS4 didn't have BF4, so I sold it.

Also try playing that game on last-gen.  Framerates are choppier than fucking Unity.

Serious / Re: Walmart "bows down to Sharia law" by allowing halal meat.
« on: November 15, 2014, 03:24:41 PM »
Sceptile, I actually had  a halal  burger when I was in California this year, and it didn't taste that bad.  Better than a Carl's Jr. burger.

But yeah, Walmart isn't replacing all their meat with halal, it's just going to be a four foot section at least.  And if you're so worried about halal animal slaughter, I want you to remember what happened to the animal you eat next time you have pork, chicken or steak.

As America veers towards Islamic Sharia law in order to cater to the demanding minority of Muslims, citizens are seeing not only an attempt to include and appease Muslims, but an infringement upon the rights of the majority.

With such a vocal group as that of Islam in the U.S., major corporations are making a shift toward including the brutal slaughter that is halal, and the newest addition to the list of Muhammad-approved businesses is the largest superstore yet.

The Miami Student reports that Wal-Mart has taken the leap into dangerous waters, approving the provision of halal meats.

With a petition, Oxford assistant professor Tareq Hasan Khan and the Muslim Student Association (MSA) of Miami University has pressured Wal-Mart into providing meats that have been slaughtered in a manner acceptable by halal standards, as per the Quran.

(Let it be noted that the petition garnered only 50 signatures while passed around the internet.)

According to the Quranic definition, halal livestock should be slaughtered by slitting the throat of the beast, bleeding the animal out by the throat, all while invoking the name of Allah in prayer. It’s often argued that halal slaughter is the most humane form of butchery, claiming that the animal endures as little pain and suffering as possible, but the documented videos reveal the ugly truth.

So....apparently Wal-Mart is the Devil and bowing down to the evil eeeeeeevil sand Muslims for providing Halal meat.

And these are the same people that purchase mass-produced, processed chicken.

Broly

Never before has such an uninteresting character been wanked to such an absurd extent by such an ignorant fanbase.

BUT HE IS TEH LEJUNDAIRY SUPER SAYUN.

Bitch please, Super Saiyan Gogeta would erase Broly from existence with literally the back of his hand.

It was an alright movie with neat animation, and I'm glad that Toriyama continues to axe GT from existence.  But Super Saiyan God form was just......so underwhelming.  And Vegeta's "Fusion Dance" song was really cringeworthy.  I understand it was supposed to be funny, but coming from Vegeta was just awkward.  And Bills was fucking awesome.

And apparently they're releasing Battle of Gods 2....and people are spreading rumors Broly is supposed to be in it and might fight Bills.

just....pls.  no.

The game is great except for the awful framerate. It's worse than Far Cry 3 on last gen.

This.  The story is great, Arno reminds me of Ezio (which is good AND bad), and the cinematics are great.  The graphics are also pretty good....at times.
