“Walmart will be closed Christmas Day so both cashiers can be with their families”

Walmart (an American multinational retail corporation) has often been criticized for not staffing enough cashiers.
       
“Wal-Mart will close on Christmas so both cashiers can spend time with their families” was posted on Twitter by Bʀɪᴀɴ Rɪᴄʜᴀʀᴅs ® on December 24, 2018. “Just a reminder: Walmart will be closed on Christmas day so both cashiers can be with their families” was posted on Twitter by Thomas Osadsky later on December 24, 2018. The Walmart cashier saying has been printed on many images.
   
“Area 51 is where they keep all of the Walmart cashiers” and “Due to panic buying, Walmart has opened a second register” are other jokes about Walmart cashiers.
 
“Walmart will be closed on Thanksgiving so self-checkout cashiers can be with their families” is a related joke.
