Default Re: Movie: Wal-Mart : The high cost of low prices

i deliver goods to a couple of walmarts. i make a decent wage and even selling at a reduced retail they are my largest customer. i refuse to shop there. the general attitude of the management is unbelievable. look a man in his face to say hi and he/she will not even acknowledge. i'm blown away at the way a lot of the help gets treated. there are some decent respectful managers but the percentage of idiots is definately far greater than the rest of my customers. i happen to have made pretty good friends with quite a few people who are employed there. one incident that really sticks with me happened to a girl on the hot foods section. a customer was upset that a certain item was out of stock(very common). she appologized stating she has no control of items ordered and not shipped. this guy started yelling at her and said "listen you effen c*nt just go out back and get it for me). even though there were several witnesses who backed up her story the store manager felt he needed to "coach" her. stated that she did not try hard enough to satisfy the customer. i have dealt with a lot of companies and i have never seen a place that has virtually no class or sense of fairness or decency. this manager should be thankful that wasn't my wife or daughter!!
his ass would get a serious coaching. there are a lot of good hard working people in that company that have been misplaced from companys that went out of business because of walmart and now have to work for them because there uis not much else. absolute power corrupts absolutely. mike
