No one has access to anyone's private cell numbers as you have said. The ways to reach Walmart is to call the 800 number or try your own store which in my experience reaching my store was always an adventure trying to get someone to pick up the phone. Cell phones of management are not considered appropriate or legal as a way to communicate.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:58:22 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Who Is Watching Out For Walmart Employees?</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/who-is-watching-out-for-walmart-employees/#comment-22144592</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I am amazed at these morons who support Walmart. You know who you are not worth repeating your names. It's getting old with the answers in quotes and the answer of "at your favorite stores like costco and target". It's fucking old!Try answering with a smart educated response or don't respond at all. AIG was a company that everyone thinks is a disgraceful company for what they did but Walmart passes them by a mile. Daily verbal abuse, hours cut, store managers having affairs with associates, poverty level wages, non-affordable disgraceful healthcare,a sick policy that makes me sick.Please don't respond because I don't care to hear it. Save it and shove it up your ass.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:43:57 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Crimefighting in Walmart parking lots</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/crimefighting-in-walmart-parking-lots/#comment-21292401</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Al, again with the "your favorite stores" crap.

They are wrong. It is for publicity only. The insurance plans are disgraceful. Where do you come up with sitcoms and what do they have to do with this? Stay on the subject at hand. I just left Walmart for a better company. But Iknow what the margin of profits are for their products. It is enourmous. They average mark up is 65%. That is the average. Some products have a prfit margin of 105%. They CAN pay for health insurance and raise pay without even raising prices. If you do not know what you are talking about please don't make an ass of yourself. It is amazing how much of a profit, pure profit Walmart makes from their everyday products.Again, Walmart can rescue their image by two things, raise salaries and pay for good medical care. They make a profit of 400 billion dollars a year. And another thing people don't see is the amount of waste their is in this company. Items that go down the garbage chute but they still get full credit for.Walmart should want to have employees that are fully dedicated to them and want to keep their jobs until they retire. If they paid a living wage, paid for most of GOOD benefits and treated their employees in a decent manner they would have a company to be proud of and employees that would respect them and give them 200% of dedication back. This is not a union issue. It is an issue of what the right thing to do for the people that work for you. If customers comes into a Walmart and see a happy face on ecery employee and get the best service and always see the same faces when they come in, it makes them feel as though they are shopping not only for their family but with their "family". That's why people like the mom and pop stores so much. Because you know everyone by name. I have seen it time and time again. I really wish Walmart would just do those few things and they would be the most admired company to work for. What does it take to get them to do this or are they beyond their own greed. It is very sad. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 15:37:01 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Walmart&amp;#8217;s new CEO: Do better!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/tell-walmarts-new-ceo-do-better/#comment-21279136</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Al, I just don't know where you get the idea that I am pro-union. Never said it. And to you everyone has a favorite store like k-mart and costco. Where do you come up with this? I have recently left Wal-mart to work for a far better non-union company that pays a living wage and also has great benefits annd they paid 75% of them. It is very old that all you say is "your favorite store k-mart and costco" to everyone you answer. I initially went to walmart to work because I lost my spouse in a tragic accident. I needed to get something to feed my family with. But after working there I realized that they want you to think you are a "family" membe but you are not. The verbal abuse and harrassment which all employees deal with is bad enough but what is worse it that financially Wal-mart CAN pay more for salaries and give better benefits. They just chose not too. Again I worked in the guts of Wal-mart and was able to see their profits and what the bonuses and expense accounts are for the big wigs.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 14:00:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Walmart&amp;#8217;s new CEO: Do better!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/tell-walmarts-new-ceo-do-better/#comment-21278516</link><description>&lt;p&gt;billybob44, before you open your mouth again, just think for a minute that some people and I am one of them that suddenly lose the main breadwinner of our family in a tragic accident and are trying our best to survive.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:50:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Walmart&amp;#8217;s new CEO: Do better!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/tell-walmarts-new-ceo-do-better/#comment-21277854</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Is everyone still awake after this asshole's comments that are a book?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:39:33 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Walmart&amp;#8217;s new CEO: Do better!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/tell-walmarts-new-ceo-do-better/#comment-21197483</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Al and all his insane buddies, Walmart CAN pay higher wages and give better benefits. First of all, the amount of commercials that Walmart run is ridiculos. Everyone knows who Walmart is. It cost alot of money to run these commercials. Mike Duke needs to sit down and get a set of balls and finally act like a human being and run a business as he says is his family. It's not about making anyone rich, it is about making sure that people can live to pay their rents and eat and also be able to afford decent healthcare for themselves and their families. This is not a call for employees to become millionares. It is for them to be able to survive. I'm so tired of Al and his asshole croonies sticking up for a company that abuses it's employees in every way.Stop doing all the quotes - it is juvenile. You have NO idea what goes on daily at any given Walmart. And until you do please shut the fuck up.The best thing Walmart could do for its image is too raise employees salaries and give them better healthcare.That would change their image hands down.Pay a living wage for a full weeks pay and respectful benefits that don't take all of your paycheck.It's not that difficult.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 Oct 2009 14:15:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Walmart&amp;#8217;s new CEO: Do better!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/tell-walmarts-new-ceo-do-better/#comment-21196443</link><description>&lt;p&gt;fredderf, can you read this SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Walmart has open enrollment for their healthcare if you want to call it that and they have changed it completely. It is now MORE expensive and covers LESS and has a HIGHER DEDUCTIBLE. If you are so smart as you think you are you would know that. 92% of walmart workers DO NOT have insurance. YOU ARE WRONG. No one can afford the disgraceful new or the old insurance. AL, Get your fucking facts straight before you open your mouth.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 Oct 2009 13:43:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Waltons: Still Super Rich!!!</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/the-waltons-still-super-rich/#comment-20210428</link><description>&lt;p&gt;STOP USING QUOTES TO ANSWER PEOPLE.

We know your favorite is Walmart.Again I will repeat the drug from Walmart and other stores that are sold for $4 are not from the same place and are not all fake as Walmarts are. I was in a position to see it and see a pay off of an FDA agency to let Walmart continue to sell these phony drugs from other countries that sell counterfeit drugs over the internet. I'm not silent on anything that hurts people Al you asshole. You should be ashamed to accept a check from Walmart to be the hall monitor for them on this website. Go fuck yourself. They ARE going down. They ARE.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 Oct 2009 14:13:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How to Avoid Spoiling an Endangered Species&amp;#8217; Habitat</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/how-to-avoid-spoiling-an-endangered-species-habitat/#comment-20209362</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I happen to know who "AL" is.

I havent seen anyone bring up costco but you. And the unions you talk about are not what you say they are asshole. You get paid benefits and better benefits with a union. Union wages are very low. These are not the unions of many years ago. Do your homework before opening your mouth. Walmart makes employees work EVERY weekend and EVERY holiday or you are fired. No questions, you are fired. Fuck your family at holiday time because Walmart is all about money not their employees/family that have no choice to be with their real families. They have to work every single holiday no excuses or you are fired. So again I tell you shut the fuck up&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:54:13 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Our Perspective on Walmart</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/our-perspective-on-walmart/#comment-20207855</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Listen, Bertha Blimpass spouses stay home to TAKE CARE OF THEIR CHILDREN SO THEY ARE NOT RAISED BY STRANGERS AND GROW UP TO BE CRIMINALS. Whatever drug you are on send it my way because you are out there. Walmaet has enough money to pay a livable wage to its employees. Plain and Simple. If they didn't advertise a commercial every 2 minutes on every channel that would pay for all of walmarts employees medical benefits for years. If they are so great, why do they have to advertise so much??? It puzzles me. Bertha Blimpass you are probably a door greeter because you can't do anything else. Children should be raised by a parent not a day care worker. Maybe that's why you love walmart because you were raised by strangers and don't know anything.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:39:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Walmart&amp;#8217;s Pricing Fail&amp;#8230;More than just humor</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/walmarts-pricing-failmore-than-just-humor/#comment-19846594</link><description>&lt;p&gt;This is for Al and Billybobhick, I am no longer an employee of the slavemart. I now work for a government agency that hired me for one reason and Walmart will find out soon what that reason is. I make a great salary and my benefits are fully paid for. I get weekends and holidays off. I think the both of you need to get a life beyond sticking up for walmart and doing your cutnpaste bullshit. You repeat yourselves over and over. You claim everyone loves costco and target without any merit. It shows by the two of you the IQ of anyone who supports Walmart without actually suffering the abuse they dish out.

Do you know since you are both know it alls hat there is a documentary being made undercover about Walmart. Filming of meetings in stores with voice recordings of the verbal abuse. Pay wage info, benefit info, child labor law abuse, pay offs, and much more. Maybe just maybe the two of you idiots need to know what is going on right nder your noses. It doesn't matter to me that you love Walmart. Other retailers have their issues also but Walmart by far has the most infractions. When you are hired and sit in orientation it is all about what a great company Walmart is. It is not training for your job it is to brainwash you on how great Walmart is and you should be grateful to work there. Again, if you do not work for them right now and do not get to "enjoy" the abuse everyday then I would remain quiet.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">d_for</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Oct 2009 08:29:49 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How to Avoid Spoiling an Endangered Species&amp;#8217; Habitat</title><link>http://walmartwatch.org/blog/archives/how-to-avoid-spoiling-an-endangered-species-habitat/#comment-19845648</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Al, Again shut the fuck up. Why do YOU think Walmart or any other store or company has the right to come in and ruin ANY land never mind a preserved piece of land. I want to live with trees around me not another fucking Walmart or any other store. We have enough companies especially Walmarts in NJ that are within 5 miles of each other and are now not making a profit. And don't come back at me and say I don't know anything about retail Enough is enough. Stop using the excuse in every answer you give everyone on here that they would let their "favorite" store build or do something that Walmart is doing.
