He seemed to have an amazing relationship with all the CSRs. Of course, CSRs open another register and took me. CSR shouted "I am printing a MO" so that the machine would not interlap with those of our whale friend. I only end up doing a $495 MO with out a split, although I can t see why I would have been rejected for a split, as this guy was doing only $1,000 MO with multiple swipes and he had at least 10 printed already. Ohh, and he seem to have such a good relationship with all the Wally Associates, that he was not signing any forms nor giving away his Driver License info. I decided to stay and even took a picture of him, so that in the future, I can tell the manager if they reject me for a lousy $1,000 (BTW, he saw my Simon VGC and he knew I knew and he could care less).

Please, do not let this type of people go to my Middle of Nowhere Mid West Wally, and jeopardize my MO with GC @ Wally
Please, do not let this type of people go to my Wally. Attempting to use other peoples established relationships and taking pictures of people while they are doing large $ transactions is an incredibly bad idea. It can backfire on you way more than you might expect. I had someone try to do this before with my stores and it ended very poorly for them, being banned and kicked out of the stores when I told them I had no idea who the guy was.
