The legacy of Large Bastards




























tn.jpg

There it is. The picture that started it all. Taken on August 12, 2000 at about 8:30 P.M. The picture depicts Tony Nelson quietly zoning near the Back-to-School section, supposedly as he would say later, watching girls in H.B.A. possibily stealing stuff. It was then that Tim ran in and took the shot. Seconds later, Tim ran out with the picture and Nelson hobbling far behind. Read the full story -->

A slight resemblance to a particular assistant manager






In May of 2000, a queer person known only as Tony walked through the doors at Wal-Mart in Delafield, WI to begin his new job as an assistant manager. Over the course of the summer, events would transpire that ended up giving him the title of asshole.

He seemed cool at first, bringing control to the out-of-whack and virtually non-existant security of Wal-Mart. He fired Dave Steffen, Adam Kindred, Black Rob, Tim, Brent, and Matt (illegally) (read the police reports below) both of electronics, for shoplifting. He also caught many little girls stealing .40 worth of makeup. (a real hero). He also was cool for awhile because of the fact that he didnt do any work and he didnt tell me to work. Unfortunetly, Tony degenerated into his old hardass-navy days. By July 2000, he became increasingly ornery. He was on Matt's case for having to many stickers on his namebadge, which is entirely ridiculous bullshit. Tony became a thorn in the side of all that used to be good with Wal-Mart, and on August 12, 2000 the tinderbox met its spark.

I had to work from 11-8pm. I was so unmotivated and bored by 7pm that I asked Tony if I could leave. He said yes. I was doing something later with Matt. Earlier, he came in and told me to come over. Tim came up to the store at 8pm to pick me up and show me where Matt lived. I found out earlier that day that Matt had Iron-On T-shirt transfers. I thought I'd go out to his house and make one of Matt Mullen, the Machine. I did not have a picture of him, however. So, I got my poloroid camera and went into Wal-Mart to get a picture of him.I took 3 pictures of him. I met Amanda and Maria P outside just before, and all seemed to be going well. I came back outside and Tim told meto go in and get a picture of Tony. I told him no way. He then took my camera and went in to find him. He didnt. He said he went into the back. Brent then went in and found him at the service desk. He said "Take that picture and youre fired". Brent came out and gave the camera to Tim who went in and came out running. Seconds later, Tony was running after him. Tim ran past us and down to ACE. Matt Mason, I, and Brent were standing up by my car in the parking lot. He came over to us and asked who that was. Mason told him everything and Tony went back inside. He asked us where he went. We didnt know. When he was walking back in, Mason asked, Any problem with us Tony? He replied- "Only that you were with him". He said "Well, im going back inside and calling the cops". He went inside. Tim emerged from the bushes and we went to Matt's  house in Ixonia.

Things settled down a little as we told matt b the story. We immediately scanned in the picture so we would have a record of it no matter what happened. Later that night, my mom called and told me that she had recieved a disturbing phone call from a Tony, who threatened to fire me if I did not return the picture that I did not have.The next day, I had to work. I was prepared for the worst. Tony was not there however. I did not see him until the following Wednesday, and he said nothing to me.  Brent's dad was also called that night by Tony, who threatened to tow Brent's car. Matt was actually fired by Tony illegally, who later was re-instated by store manager Mike after his business seminar. Wal-Mart still owes him $40 over that. Tim eventually got a ticket for the incident, which was reduced to basically nothing. Tim also was never eligible to be rehired because of Tony, however, he successfully got a job with Wal-Mart again. Brent was fired later on due to an unrelated incident. Within two weeks of the incident, Tony Nelson was reassigned to the Beaver Dam store and has never been seen around here again. It is beleived that no other member of management was involved with this whole debacle, which shows just how ridiculous the whole incident was.
