Witches of Walmart

日本のディスカウントストアと言えばドン・キホーテなどが思いつく
しかし海外で有名なディスカウントストアといえばウォルマートだ
アメリカに本社のある世界最大の小売店で世界19カ国に10000店以上ある
そんなウォルマートにショッピングカートを押した変な男がやってきた
カートのハンドル部分に両手を置きスーパーマンのような恰好で宙に浮いている
周囲の人が驚きの声を上げスマホで撮影する
何かしらのマジックを使ってるのであるが本当に驚く
最近はユーチューブでこの手のマジックの種明かしがアップされてるので自分は大体のことは分かる
ショッピングカートにはかなりの手が加えられていて通常のものではない
まず車輪は電動で動く
それと後ろに大人の男性が体重をかけても倒れないよう前のほうに重しがあるはずだ
あとはカートに固定された薄くて頑丈な金属を後方に伸ばす
細長いプレート状の板に体を乗せる
そしてそれらを服の中や腕の部分に隠しているのだろう
ただ運転操作は自身でやってるのか、もしくは近くにいる仲間のリモコン操作だろうか
マジックのタネがわかっていても見てるとなかなか面白い
Wal-Mart is the largest retail company in the world, headquartered in the United States. Sales in fiscal 2022 were $611.3 billion (88.6385 trillion yen). The size of Amazon’s sales in 2023 is $574.7 billion (83.3025 trillion yen).
Walmart began when founder Sam Walton opened a grocery store in Ben Franklin. The current discount line started in 1962 with the opening of the first Descout City store. Wal-Mart is also known as a family management company. The Walton family’s total assets are said to exceed 25 trillion yen, attracting attention as a millionaire family. It was the corporate philosophy of “EDLP” that pushed Walmart into such a large retail company. EDLP, also known as constant low-cost sales, is also a sales strategy that offers a wide range of products at low prices every day.
In Japan, it is common to have a sale on a fixed day or day, such as a special sale day, but Wal-Mart enhances consumers’ buying experience by offering low prices every day.
This corporate philosophy has also led to the slogan “We Save People Money So They Can Live Better.”
Walmart founder Sam Walton also recognized employees as business peers and partners and believed their participation would have the desired results for management.
Therefore, in addition to consumers, there is a climate that places importance on employee satisfaction, and it can be said that management is characterized by the integration of labor and management.
