I went to a local wal-mart for some 22 ammo. I asked the young kid in sporting goods if he had any 22lr and he said no it was all sold out. I went to look at some fishing stuff and when I walked back past the sporting goods desk there was a guy standing there and I seen the kid take 2 bulk packs of 22lr out from under the counter and sold them to him. I was po'ed and asked the kid why he lied to me, he kind of stuttered a bit and said he didn't lie. I told him this was bs and demanded to see the manager. I told the manager what happened and he fired the kid on the spot, told him he had been warned twice and this was it. The manager said this was the third time the kid was caught holding ammo for someone.
