    They do this shit on purpose. Years ago I worked for the evil empire (Wal-Mart) and they put all the coffee filters next to the coffee makers in the appliance section, not with the coffee in the grocery section or with the consumable paper products. It forces customers to walk around the store to find things. And they would rearrange it every 6 months or so.

      When I was but a youth, I met someone and asked where they worked. They, too, said “the evil empire” (meaning Walmart) but I, being naive and having recently discovered Linux, said “Microsoft?” They laughed and responded in the affirmative.

      I believed that for weeks before a Walmart-specific story came up in conversation.
