Shoulda just walked away. Not worth it.

Fuck anyone who pulls the vet card.
Fuck anyone who pulls the race card.
As a former cart pusher (sounded like thats what it was about) I totally understand being angry anyways. When 2 people take a cart for a single jug of milk while you are working your ass off to keep the store stocked, man that's frustrating. Shouldn't have hit him though, definitely gonna be charges pressed.
power to the people
YOU ARE DISRESPECTIN ME.
I was not expecting him to punch that hard. Dude just dropped to the floor at light speed.
But yeah Lot is bullshit and those that work in that department don't get any respect or sympathy. Oh you're busting your ass in the sun? Let me leave this cart on the other side of the parking lot and don't bother to bring it any closer. I work in lot. Its not fun in the slightest.
Cool.
Now you lost a job. Now you're a criminal. Now you're probably going to get sued.
All because you were upset over some shopping carts.
Hope it was worth it, guy!
Its stuff like this that makes me depressed on how society ends of resorting to violence for the most trivial things.
The punch out was too much, but clearly this has been an on going thing. But to honest I don't really understand what's going on. Kind of hard to understand people from a distance through a phone.
As for him pulling the vet and race cards, I feel the race card was completely irrelevant. Just because your boss is a different "race" than you doesn't mean he's picking on you. And then the vet card...what does that have to do with anything? "I fought for our country so you need to stfu and listen to me." Uhh...no. Thank you for doing your duties and everything, but respect is earned and cannot be expected. Great, you fought in a war. Good job. But I don't know you personally. For all I know you're an asshole, regardless of what you've done for your country.
I'm still on the fence though. I need more information before I can figure out who is more wrong. As it is, they're both wrong.
Love how the world star hiphop pans up right as the punch happens.

Coming from someone who put up with an extremely bad manager for two years, that was incredibly satisfying to watch.
I'm either quitting or getting myself fired in the next few months - god I wish I could do this to my current boss.
I didn't hear a word of what was said. :(
[QUOTE=JgcxCub;44770869]I didn't hear a word of what was said. :([/QUOTE]
From what I understand with little to no context, this seems to be what happened:
This guy got some snarky remark from the manager when he pushed a cart that was lying around at the front of the store back to its appropriate place, making this guy (whose job it is) look bad.
The cart guy (who, according to his side of the story, was legitimately doing his job with the parking lot but missed this one or was too late to see this one before the manager saw it) was having none of this and responded with a sarcastic remark of his own.
Manager apparently decides to either fire/reprimand the cart guy (somehow, judging by the other things this guy said it would appear this is not the first time they have locked horns), which ends up escalating into the situation you see first. I think the final breaking point is when the manager decides to call Cart Guy a liar, which takes it from being professional to being personal. After that point, even a slightly close approach to Cart Guy (which happened before this point) now becomes "invasion of personal space" in the moments leading to the knockout punch.
Not taking sides here, but it would appear (again, without any sort of context to back this up), that both sides are being douchecanoes. The Cart Guy is being a digus - he should take that race card and shove it right back into the deck.
The manager should also have taken the high road, but he decided not to and had involuntary oral sex with the floor as a result.
that was not a smart solution to such a small issue
I wanted to do that today too, boss yelled at me because I don't answer calls while driving.
Of course it was black people.
And when there's black people fighting, there's Worldstar Hip Hop

I question if the battery charges are worth that moment of satisfaction.
That was one hell of a punch. Manager didn't even have time to see that coming!

I was waiting for it the whole vid
Wal-mart does not have employees.
We have "associates".

my new favorite word. thought it was pronounced as douche canoe (as in the boat) but now I'm guessing it's a combination of douche and volcano.

To be fair, I was just waiting for the punch and didn't pay too much attention, but I understood it that the manager saw him JUST clear the whole lot and then made a point of bringing a cart all of the way across the lot (I guess to his own car) and didn't bring it back. I loved working carts personally, we had a good staff at Sobeys though. They didn't really tell us when they were changing things about our job, but other than that it was just walking around in the sun (or snow) which I enjoyed.
Man their break room is nicer than mine
Not that any violence is justified, but psychological violence, long term passive aggressive, especially from someone in a meaningless authority position over you, can drive people to violence. People should be more surprised that doesnt happen more often. Take all the implications of what where you will.
