Please explain how Walmart is any worse than other retailers. Retail is an awful place to work and it's ridiculous to expect to make a living wage working at it unless you feel you can become a manager. Even then, it's no picnic, fraught with uncertainty, and a poor life choice.

I stand in solidarity with BamBam, Operating Engineers Local 450, District 2, Texas, for over 50 years. Since ya'll seem to know nothing about Unions ..... If you belong to the NRA, you belong to a Union, dues paying and all the rest !!!! I don't know how this got from Aunt Jemima not baking cakes for PoPo to downing trade unions. You can't live without the NFL and the NBA (both Union organizations, and predominantly black). So does that mean you do support Black Lives Matter ????

BTW, I voted for Trump.

And your union published an article in the magazine your dues helped pay for in support of Hillary. Congrats on being two-faced.

You're right, but at least the NRA supports the things I believe in.....You can't say that for the Union can ya?.

I've lived without the NFL and NBA for nigh on 53 years now, I think I can handle a few more.

So many inaccuracies here. Typical of those that don't take the time to check the facts.
#1 The motto is Save Money, Live Better.
#2 Wal-Mart's wages are competitive with the other big box retailers. If they weren't, people wouldn't work there.
#3 35 hours a week is considered full time and qualifies an associate for all benefits, including insurance.


Yes, the Waltons are very wealthy. So is Bill Gates, Donald Trump, the Busch's and many others that have worked hard for their money.

I was off on the Motto stand corrected. And that should've said a 34 hour workweek not 35 here's an interesting Link.pay me better and I'll take care living better.they can afford it.

http://www.demos.org/publication/despite-raise-walmart-wages-schedules-still-aren%E2%80%99t-livable
30 hours is considered full time now for health insurance.


So he was off by a couple hrs!.........He meant to say 29hrs. He stands corrected.......... wink

And having willingly done that, they then attempted to further their profit-making foray at my expense for trying to get another 1000%.

I have no use for a business which makes their own bad behavior overshadow that of my own offspring. It's pretty hard to try to tell your own kid how wrong they were in their actions when they see stuff like that.

After I delivered a letter to the local manager in person, a copy of the letter I also sent to their legal team nearly two years ago, I haven't darkened the doors of any Walmart store. They can piss off.
Calling absolute total BS on this. I've sat in on many shoplifting interventions at Wal-Mart and that absolutely does not happen. They don't need to make 100% on the $7.97 worth of stuff your kid took. Policies and procedures don't even allow a scam like that.

You buy from Amazon? Jeff Bezos is just as bad to work for, as the Waltons, if not a helluva lot worse. When you buy from Amazon, you crap down the backs of a lot of their employees. Maybe you can justify that..............

Boycott Beretta, Franchi, Merkel, AyA, etc, etc for like Toyota the profits go to another country. Union members surely exclusively only buy USA made firearms. wink

LMAO! Exactly and don't forget about Heinz, Campbells, Bertolli and about 50 others this site has declared a boycott on. You can't shop, entertain or eat anything. Just stay at home and breath. crazy

Oh yeah and the NFL and any sports venue that does not think or act the same as you.

Guess that would also include anything in .270. In fact, don't even drive on I-270!!
