They actually pay excellent wages for what their employees need to
know to work in a grocery... they only need relatively few with
college degrees to work in their offices. Walmart is no different
from any other similar retail establishment and better than most....
you really think other stupidmarket/department stores treat employees
better, you're from another planet.

Most positions at Walmart and other similar stores are no-skill/no
future jobs, they are not intended to be career positions... those are
the jobs meant to give students a little pocket change for the
weekends... and to give Seniors something to occupy themselves a
couple days a week and earn them a little golfing money... and they
also hire a lot of learning disabled, makes those poor souls feel
needed... Walmart pays them the same measly wage as normal people but
mostly it's us tax payers who support those poor souls... Walmart (and
many other big businesses) does a good deed by hiring those who by no
deed of their own made them needy. Walmart does a tremendous amount
of community service of all sorts, they just don't boast about it.

I'd much rather my grand kids toil at Walmart while earning an MBA
than they make those big bucks and bennies laboring in a coal mine or
some other dangerous filthy factory for the rest of their existance.
To me it's patently obvious that you work at a loser job (if you work
at all, I'm sure you don't) and you're proud that your kids (if any)
are loser acorns as well... only the envious losers slam Walmart. Only
the infantile insecure pinheads tell others not to shop someplace,
same as telling folks who to killfile... it'a an assault on their
intelligence that some useless non-thinking scumbag is telling folks
what to do as though they can't think for themselves. When you tell
folks what to do/what to believe, especially in a public forum, you
are attempting to discover which moronic loony birds are of your
feather.
