Walmart isn't a retail store.. It's a cult

Sometimes I joke about Walmart being a cult for several reasons. The first reason being that they honor a Sam Walton so much that he feels like a deity. There are posters with quotes from him all over the break room and his quotes can even be found throughout loading screens on miscellaneous computer programs in the store. I understand that Sam was the company's founder and a brilliant business man, but he's been dead for 23 years for Christ's sake. Some of the big whigs in the company are obsessed with him to the point that it gets creepy at times.

The next reason is that there are Walmart cheers that are shoved down our throats at every single stupid meeting. These cheers feel more like a chant to the dead. Okay, not really, but they are really annoying and nobody has enthusiasm except for management (and even then, some members of management look like they want to hang themselves during the cheers).

Walmart probably isn't actually a cult, but it certainly does feel like it at times.
