Want some REAL fun??? Walk into a Meijers. be casual and LOOK casual. Go to a department that has a phone where you can't be seen. Press the numbers [edit] after a second or two. That will put you on the intercom. Say in an urgent tone, but not TOO urgent, "[edit] to (Toys, Media, hardware, or whereever you cans ee, but won't bee blamed for the call) and say it 3 times. I work at a Miejers and that code means someone is hurt, badly and needs immediate medical attention. ALL managers and employees in the area must go to that deperatment to help.
If you want to see people run, REALLY fast and then get really pissed off and confused... Do that. No customer know the number to get on the com, nor the code for injured person, so they will take awhile trying to figure out where the injured person is. Do note, most camera things lack any camera, and we don't record any of the camra footage cept for those in the fishing isles and by the main entrance. Thats how it is for ALL Meijers.

Readys self for a 5 fingered discount at Meijers... :lol: :ph43r:
Tilly - January 11, 2005 04:07 AM (GMT)
Um...making people think someone is badly injured when nothing is wrong = not funny.
I'll just edit that code out of there now...

No, it's dry humor. I could always say the code for fire.... Thats amusing. The ability to effect a large number of peoples day to day activities all by the control of a phone. What fun. The customers don't know what codes are what, but when managers run around with fire extinguishers or AEDs, it's anyones guess as to what those codes mean....
Sephiroth - January 11, 2005 11:58 PM (GMT)
Now that you edited out the code whoever is around Meijers is gonna go there once a week trying out all the codes until they find the right one starting with 1. So week one they say "We've got a code 1 in toys" until they find out which ones are which. So you couldve made it worse. Like i just did giving people these ideas.
ZeRoRaVeN - January 12, 2005 12:07 AM (GMT)
Wonderful idea Sephiroth! *runs to Meijers to try* *pauses* what is Meijers?
The Zombie - January 12, 2005 12:20 AM (GMT)
Its like Wal Mart, but farther up north.
LeviathanOmegaHuman - January 12, 2005 12:35 AM (GMT)
um.... i did all 50 of those and the staff wanted me to come back.... i never did cause that was the last thing i expected.... for them to like it....

Look what the cat finally dragged back in...
You mean Department... (insert number) to the toys department.... There are no codes, just departments... It's to make it less suspicious of being an emergency. people might think department 10 for example, which is the one for you viewing people stealing and needing to call for assistance in aprehending the kid, sounds like an accual department in the store. Saying code 10 over the com might make some customers think fire, or some other stupid thing...
Thats ok, a guy cut his hand wide open the other day and I said Department 50 5 times and no one ran to help. I paged the store manager and the department 10 who should respond immediately... I had to take care of the poor old man. He gave me a twenty for helping him. I swere I tried to refuse to take it, but he insisted, and hey, turning down free money, when the giver WANTS you to have it is just stupid...
The Zombie - January 21, 2005 09:24 PM (GMT)
They must not listen to the comm very well...
Drk-X - January 21, 2005 11:13 PM (GMT)
...take a package of food, eat it up halfway, carefully put the package back together, and stick it back on the shelf...and see if anyone puts it in their cart...if not, switch it with a good package someone else has...
never tried it before..i made it up cause i was bored...

In society, there are many classes: the rich, the poor, the “I could buy that new grill, but I choose not to” group. Yet, setting aside their economic differences, they all gather together for the joys of a particular establishment. This particular establishment that will one day rule the cosmos with an iron fist, as it has already taken its claim on Earth.
Wal-Mart

Ironically I just read the above in one of my friend's comedy fics, as soon as I noticed this topic as well...
ZeroFalcon - January 24, 2005 04:41 PM (GMT)
Go to the customer service department desk and start complaining that they don't have any Zoids. Tell them that contrary to what Hasbro has told them, Zoids are still being mass produced and put on the market in the US, and that you see them all the time at every other retailer. To further bother them, say that you are a Hasbro Consumer Relations exec. (No, I haven't done it, and I won't).
About codes... the Wal-Mart nearest to me has their codes plainly displayed in the lawn and garden section, very close to the exit...
