I already know Walmart is the devil, but It'll be interesting to watch while I'm working on my demo reel.

all corporations care about is money and going to whatever means to make it. what i find really funny is they exist more for their stockholders than the general public and half the stockholders would be members of the public. i just find it disgusting how they can walk all over people, even their employees and no one has the power or means to do anything about it, ill tell ya what if we had some more Tyler Durdans in the world we'd be ok!!

King Kong ain't got shit on ME!!!

yeah, i worked for those douchebags for 2 days. i'm surprised i stayed that long. they seriously try to brainwash their employees with SIXTEEN HOURS of orientation videos. it was scary.

Speaking as someone who has been working there for going on 3 years now:

Duh.

I refuse to patronize WalMart in any fashion whatsoever.

I'll find someplace else to buy my house paint and 4am on a Sunday

The part about the employee wages and overtime reminded me of why I no longer go out to eat at Chile's.

I had a friend who worked part time there. He was constantly working double shifts, and the way they would get away without paying him overtime was they would require him to work his six hours, clock out for a couple hours, and come back for another six hours that same day. To make things worse, the employees who were considered full time were sent home early before their full 8 hour shift was over.

And if you don't sign away your rights to a break, you don't have a job.

On top of all that, they require you to pay for your own uniform.

Fuck Chile's. I don't care how much I love their chicken tacos. It's not worth what they do to their employees.

Damn. Now I want tacos.

There was a Walmart in Canada, and its staff wanted to form a union. Walmart of course HATES unions (why should employees get rights eh?) so they flat out closed the store. They said it was because the location wasnt getting enough business, despite the fact it was the only mall in town. Apparently they have a book full of ways to kill unions, and I think thats messed up.

Yeah, pretty dastardly. It doesn't surprise me at all though. I used to work at a place that did similar things.

Thats pretty messed up! Unfortunately most corporations function similarly, in that they don't care much for the well-being of their employees and generally look at them as expendable resources.

Hahaha Yeah, I haven't really bought anything from Walmart in a LOONNNG time...Mostly because I just hate going into them. Its just so depressing in there. But now, after seeing all this, there's no way.
