When a store first comes to a town that is how they lure them in by telling the towns people how they are going to bring 450 jobs to the town then they do a mass hiring and they hire the cream off the crop people with experience and brains. But see they have to pay for that experience and those brains. After they find out how well or how bad the store is going to do they start finding stupid reasons to fire people and in some cases they don't even bother to use there coaching system. When they start firing the cream of the crop in the town they have to start scraping the bottom of the barrel. And that would include the borderline iliterate. And before you know it they running a store with half the staff they started with and that was there plan from the beginning. From what I understand Walmart is going back to an old format of not having Assistants. They will be asked to step down and they will be called team leaders. I was told that if a merchandise supervisor quits or gets fired they won't be raplaced. The others will have to step in and do the job for the same salary they make now. So tell me how does a town win when Walmart comes in and breaks virtually every promise they make.

I am so sorry but he just got under my skin for a minute. You are right he is not worth anymore replies. He obviously has no idea what he is talking about. Ya working in a factory was a whole lot better. I never said my wage was bad I am trying to say that there are a lot of people who made a lot less than I did there rating system is outrageous. I know what went on in the Walmart I worked at and everything I posted was true. And believe me there is a lot more. The managers don't follow the rules and that is why the whole market team where I worked were either fired or told they had to step down. I always said it is the United States of America not the United States of Walmart.

After discussing it with a former co-worker from Walmart we decided that you speak very eloquently for a retired zoo keeper. We hear Wisconsin has the best.

Why then do you sit here and put other people down for what they do and don't do. Walmart employs more people than the Federal Government so you would think it would be a great place to work. And when you come on here and put people down because they fight for there rights to make a decent wage and have decent insurance and live comfortably you are putting every man and woman down who are out there fighting so you can come on here and spew the crap that come from your mouth and put hard working people down by saying you would never work in retail or fast food. How dare you. There is nothing wrong with people who work in retail or fast food. You are exactly what the Walmart managers are like. You think you are better than me. I have worked hard all my life and the next time you go eat out Billybob (by the way your name says it all) think of this THEREFORE THE GRACE OF GOD GO I. And before Walmart yes I could say the same to not ever being fired. And with all this Hubub on the internet and news programs I don't and will never feel that it is my shortcoming.

You may not be complaining about any place you worked at but you are sitting complaining about a job I had what does that say about your boring little life. You sound like a teenager I have a good life probably better than yours. you may not be complaining about your job but do you know what the people you use to work with might be saying about you. And since you wouldn't lower yourself to working with any of us why are you conversating on these blogs with us. Have conversations with the people you use to work with. Because honestly you are really beneath me.

Ken V, I agree with you totally. You have no idea how they make you feel before you get the job. 1 week into my nightmare at Walmart I was told I would never be a manager at Walmart.

I have 35+ years experience and was a store manger of a department store in Chicago. What the 22 year old was saying was I was to old. If you are over 31 they have no use for you.

Have you ever worked for Walmart. If not how can you comment on anything that goes on at a Walmart store.

Do you work billybob? Have you ever had a job? Do you even know what it intails to run a store? Do you know what it is to take pride in anything? Where do you come from? I wouldn't doubt that you are one of there managers. And if you aren't and you just put your moronic comments on here that's sad.

Because I worked for them for 2 years. In that 2 years I was made to work off the clock, talked down to by there 25 year old managers, I saw someone have a stroke in front of me and the person was told to go back to the floor and continue working, I saw an employee have an epileptic fit on the floor and the managers just stood while we all tried to tell them he worked there. I have seen people get fired after 13 and 18 years of service for forgetting to punch out for lunch. And I have seen them keep a person who called another employee the "N" word. And there were plenty of witnesses. They keep Sam Watons pictures on the wall but it doesn't mean anything to the people running the company now. They barely scratched the surface of what really goes on at a Walmart. If you can tell me you worked there and you know better then maybe you might be able to speak with some intelligence, but we can only hope that once the Union does get in there they will see that it was not at all what alot of people I know from Walmart expected.

I worked for Walmart and I was made to work off the clock many times. And the managers knew it but, when they wanted to clean house they used it against people and fired everybody. The law reads you have to offer an employee a lunch but Walmart says it is a law that you take a lunch before the 5th hour. It was great to hear unemployment tell the managers who fired 8 of us for the same reason.

That was the worst show I have ever seen. If they were trying to uncover anything that goes on at a Walmart they did a poor job. They described Sam Walton as a man of biblical proportion. WHAT? I have heard people describe the shareholder meetings as a cult gathering. If the stars that they showed at the shareholder meeting had to work one day they would not be there. What happen to the girl who moved 500 miles to work for Walmart why didn't they say more of why she wasn't happy. Did you see that mangers house I worked for Walmart and I was lucky to have the one bedroom apartment I had. Changing there image is a smoke screen and CNBC, I felt didn't even scratch the surface of what goes on in a Walmart. When do they plan on telling the employees side they let that jerk sit there and say he has family 2 million strong. They need better reporting. That was the softest questioning I have ever heard. What a waste.
