"This is why you don't buy an iPad from Wal-Mart"

Here’s reason number 560,893,242 why you should never film yourself doing any sort of criminal act. Four Walmart employees in Pikeville, Ky. recorded themselves purposefully throwing and damaging new iPads (or the iPad3) while in what appears to be the stockroom.
“This is why you don’t buy an iPad from Walmart,” the young man filming says in the video. “See, we like to throw shit.”
The video then pans to two other employees carelessly chucking the boxes from about 20 feet away. One of the employees, named Cody, sifts through the pile of inventory with a coworker for more boxes of iPads — then deliberately throws them on the ground.
“I hope nobody buys that,” the cameraman says jokingly.
The video was sent by an anonymous employee of the Pikeville Walmart to Reddit user SenorPierre. The employees have apparently been fired and prosecuted, according to the comments on Reddit.
If the aforementioned acts weren’t enough of a crime, the entire video is shot vertically, for your inconvenience.

Whoa, there are still white people with deep country accents working in the back of Walmart? Granted, they looked like obese World of Warcraft players, but still.....I wasn't expecting this.

Luckily people with an education design those packages specifically because of dipshits who work in receiving docks.
I can only presume that they have such animosity towards an inanimate object because they are too dumb to figure out how to use one? Sort of like a monkey getting frustrated with a strange device that has a talking person inside it?

Offending employees no longer work for Walmart.
