There's a food court at your Target? Damn. I've never been to one with anything more than a Starbuck's.
OT: I work in a hospital, so if it's zombies, I'm screwed. If it's anything else one could resist (I think it'll be meteors, so no chance), I'm going to be too busy taking care of survivors to fight whatever it is.

I take my remote control out of my pocket and activate Operation 666b. (In case of apocalypse when not at home)
Then my robot army comes, busts me out and takes me home.
Then we continue with Operation 666a (In case of apocalypse when at home).
Then I launch of into space towards my space-station-fortress-ship currently orbiting whatever planet I'm on.

Not much in my office but we share storage space with the engineers upstairs. I would go with a claasic crowbar or even better, a felling bar.
Congratulations, what used to be a situation of one zombie in a room of 13 is now 12 zombies and you. Way to feed the problem.Frotality said:
I work on a newspaper mailroom nightshift, which is more industrial than it sounds to most people. Lots of machinery.
My first inclination is a pry bar we made out of a drive shaft for an old machine we scrapped for parts, but it's about four feet long, very heavy, and awfully unwieldy. We've got a regular crowbar as well so I might as well just go Gordon Freeman on the zombies.
The building itself would make a fairly decent base of operations, actually. It's located in the middle of downtown and over 130+ years it's absorbed a lot of the buildings around it. A number of the interior walls were exterior walls at some point in time and the doors that went along with those walls were left in place in most cases. So the doors leading into the building are metal/reinforced, then if those were broken down there are multiple "perimeters" within' the building that are just as strong.
We've got a few forklifts that we could use, I suppose...but they're forklifts so they aren't very fast and none of them have a closed cabin.
We also store tons (and tons and tons and tons an-) of paper. Giant rolls of paper that weigh about 1200 pounds each. Two rolls stacked on top of each other is about...six and a half feet tall? And we stack them in columns of a dozen or so. Could easily make a damn near impenetrable wall with those things. Unless a flaming zombie wanders by, which is always possible.

I go to a tech. school for construction management, so I have a very large selection of sledgehammers, shovels, crowbars, and other classic zombie fighting weapons. Plus, with all the lumber and other building supplies, I could set up a pretty decent set of barricades, so fighting wouldn't even really be necessary.
first off block off any way to the first floor
as of weapons there are a few old laptops and various desktops that open with a removable pannel (which can be used as emergency weapon)
I could also go to the woodshop where they have a nasty drill bit (you know the kind you use to make BIG holes)
