Where is a nation headed, when at one time in its history, we used to welcome parents and grand parents into our homes in their old age? We took care of them,and they helped in household chores and care of younger children.
Now we punish them, and ship them off , so that their remaining days can serve corporate America as greeters at the big box stores dotting our country. My God, I hope this isn't waiting around the corner for me.

(Imagine me twirling a handlebar mustache...) Heh, heh, haaaaaaaa!
So easily amused.
Practice with Pelmo: "Welcome to Walmart, Have a Wonderful Day. Products made in China are just over there."
By the way, I know several old people who do similar jobs becuase they enjoy them, not because it's required of them.
I would take care of the old people in my house -- and they could work if they WANTED to. I agree that some of them take jobs because they want to.
It's one thing to work, but to lower ones self to be a greeter is another. People have to learn to get a life. Or just enjoy it being a crabb ass like me.
