I worked for Walmart once upon a time. They tend to be greedy. Those Walton boys can't get rich enough. I empathize with the workers getting pissed about working Thanksgiving...that just ain't right. Frankly, I suspect Sam Walton wouldn't think it was right, either, but he's dead and there's different peeps running the ship. However, this economy is tough, and people have to feed their famailies and keep the power on, so I'm not sure risking my job would be the wise thing to do. You don't throw away what you have without something to replace it. They oughta hunt around and find a 2nd job while stores are hiring for the Christmas season, then if they get kept on after Christmas tell Walmart to take a flying leap.
If you worked for Walmart you would know that the schedules during the holidays would preclude working a second job at another store. All stores will staff heavy for the busy days and would want you working the same days in many cases. You would be forced to decide who you wanted to work for, then.
For the most part a job at Walmart is a second income in the family, and hours change constantly.
