Today, Target asked me if I would do the closing announcement. I've only been working there a little while, so excited I agreed. I told people, "The store is now closing, thank you for shopping at Walmart." FML

I bet all the customers were like, "What? Walmart? How did I get here.."

At least the announcement came out great!

It's like dressing for the job you want, not the one you have- clearly you spoke for the job you want!

Next, "Just kidding, you're in Target. But seriously, we're closed." I guess Wal-Mart just rolls off the tongue better than Target. Who knew? You'll get it right next time. Hopefully, there is a next time.

kinda ironic cause Walmart doesn't even close

Some Walmart's do close, those are the Walmart Neighborhood Markets..

I said Walmart not Walmart neighborhood market. same with op

In Canada we do both Market and non Market.

WALMART NEIGHBORHOOD MARKET IS JUST A REGULAR FOOD STORE WITH THE WALMART LOGO! IT DOES NOT SELL ANYTHING BUT FOOD!

Uh, OK. Y'all also said Walmart, not Walmart Super Center. Chill.

#34 Uh, anger issues much? There's no need to yell...

I live in a really small town and our Walmart closes at 10pm every night. It isn't a neighborhood market. It is a super center. We just don't have the traffic at night to justify the place staying open. Short story long, some Walmart's do close.

You guys are really defensive about your different varieties of Wal-mart. XD

god damn yall get so up tight about the stupidest sh*t on here. do u have anything better to do

Good for you Walmart can always use more customers via a Walmart Associate.

So, when I say it I say it like this. "Attention Target guests, the store is now closed. Please make your final selections and bring them to the register. Have a good night and as a reminder our hours are 8 am though 11 pm tomorrow."

Wow, flawless. I got the chills.

good suggestion. but you're not supposed to talk about working at Target. they get mad

My uncle used to work at a Kmart. He got laid off after a while and went to work at Walmart. His first day, he goes to make an announcement and accidentally starts with "Attention Kmart shoppers..." He paused, then continued, "...you are in the wrong store."

Work the overnight Flow shift, fellow Target team member. It's sad that I know you made the closing announcement wrong (I mean besides the obvious error), that shit gets drilled into your head even if you never have to do it.
