I worked at walmart and I got hurt just a little over my one year there. At first it was fine, but then they're true colors showed. And now I depise walmart. And the part that pisses me off the most. I live with my boyfriend who saw everyday what I went though. And he still likes to shop at walmart and since i can't drive, I go with him. He tells me that there is nothing to be done because they are too big.
I'm surrounded by walmart north, south and west.
I've emailed target to get them to come here. The main problem is that people have their heads in the sand and they say oh well.
Boycott Wal-Mart. The only way to make them hurt is in the wallet! We can make a difference. We have to get the word out about how walmart really is.

my mom works at a local walmart and they told her that she needed to think about her job or her son who was having problems at the time. They are making walmart associates lives a living hell especially ones that have been at walmart a long time. Those people are getting their hours cut and being made to work night shifts. They are hiring part time people at higher pay rates and giving them the best hours.

If you are not one of the "pretty people" Wal-Mart works you into the ground, while the "pretty people" just stand around and do nothing.

If you get hurt you still have to work with pain.

To take fabrics and sporting goods out of Wal-Mart would be cutting your own throat.

S. W. writes
First of all I've been reading most of what others have said about Walmart. I am a former employee of a Walmart Distribution Center. We were paid top dollar and had great benefits. And most all the negativity of Walmart seems to be coming from the stores. But I will say that even in the DC's people get screwed. I was an hourly supervisor who got screwed out of Walmart by an obvious reverse discrimination but was told it was because of conduct unbecoming a manager. Yet I know of an operations manager who was sexually harassing a female and he only got moved to a different shift and department. And another operations manager who assaulted and threatened an associate was transferred to another facility instead of being terminated. As for firing someone for having a doctors note, well Walmart has a no fault policy so unless you have official Walmart Leave Of Absence papers and meet the requirement of being absent 3days straight, a doctors note doesn't mean a thing. Hence "NO FAULT" policy. And the attendence policy for Walmart is very fair. Those who get fired from attendence are those that miss too many hours at work period. At my new union job it is easier to be fired based on attendence policy than what Walmart has in place. And Walmart has a fir scheduling policy, those that complain about it are those that abuse it. It too is a NO FAULT policy so stop whining about it. And sorry to say, Walmart's FMLA and LOA policies don't allow for parents to go see their child off to war. First day of school yes but not war. And sorry to say that it only acknowledges immediate family (spouse, children, parents, grand parents, grand children) not uncles, aunts or nephew and neices. So some people have no right to complain. I am not in a Union job and i had to laugh in my orientation because for all the reasons from my Union rep on why Union's should be allowed in a big company like Walmart, Walmart says the same thing for them to be out. I do know as a former member of management that any Walmart that had finally got some form of union in them ended up shutting the doors claiming it wasn't a cost effective store in a bad location, then they would open up a new store a few miles away. Ever since Sam, Helen his wife and son John died, Walmart has gone south in my eyes. In my 4yrs with the company you could see it. My warehouse was a reverse discrimination place to work, you had to be black or woman to get anywhere. As a white or hispanic male, you got walked on and screwed over. When we first opened we had a majority white management staff and the day I was terminated it was very dark in the management picture ( hardly any white or hispanic males). And dispite what some think Walmart does not have a handbook for keeping unions out. They do all they can to make sure they are kept out even have a Union hotline that gets called immediately if it is suspected that union activity may be about. So they can get their Anti Union crew from home office to fly up to the location in case it is real or serious. So pretty much, unions aren't bad full of lazy workers and yes Walmart has bad problems that need fixing but it's not all that people think it is because my current union job has some of the same damn issues that could be fixed. And I do have to say Walmart doesn't kill small mom and pop shops, it's the cheap folk like you and me who shop at Walmart to save a buck that kill the lil store, matter of fact if you shop at any mall or Target, Kmart or anything of that nature you too are killing the small mom and pop shops. Just cause you can't get a union into Walmart without them shutting you down doesn't make them the complete problem. I'm not too sure about this supposed Sean Thornton issue, from what I've read he supposedly discharged from the Air Force and was denied his job as a cashier back with Walmart.... was it because they wouldn't let him be a cashier or did they not give him his job back period? Because policy is when on military leave, you have 90 days for which your position will be kept saved for your return in your department, but if you exceed that 90 days you will return to a job but it could be on another shift in another department and as long as they offer you employment they are not breaking the laws giving you back the exact hours and department you were originally in. Last four words to say....... Fuck Walmart, I'm Union!!!!!

I used to shop at WalMart frequently. Until I met my current girlfriend and she stated why she doesn't shop there. Then she sent me this link and I watched the High Cost for Low Prices video. I will never shop at WalMart again. When my membership to Sam's ends in December, I will never shop there again. I will start frequenting more and more the mom and pop stores that made this country what it is. I'm sorry to all the people that have suffered at the hands of this meglomaniacal powerhouse with my hard earned cash. Karma is a bitch, Walton's and Scott, and God punishes those whose greed is above the people.

I do my shopping with local businesses. Living in a small town, its highly important for locals to buy tires from the local guy who keeps prices low and the local flower shop who gives the best service, the duchess bakery who has better goods than wal mart ever dreamed of anyway! If wal mart could provide service with a smile; rather than their employees pushing me out of my way because they are on lunch, I might do more shopping there myself. the trouble in small towns is once wal mart comes in, its not going anywhere because poverty is more prominent in these areas than riches; we dont have a lush population of the rich, we have a mix of middle class and lower class people and we just cant afford to shop anywhere but wal mart. Though it costs me more, I go elsewhere, but the majority is still going to be awestruck by the GV spagetti sauce as opposed to Ragu at Food World. They have a computer system second to only the pentagon that targets people based on meterolocial conditions and puts pop tarts on sale when there's a storm brewing! It is genius but isn't it a sick mind game?

I've been anti-Walmart for some time now...but I just read Sam Walton's book "Made In America". I think people would be surprised to know that even back in the 70's and 80's, Mr. Walton was always ANTI union, and he did buy a lot of mdse. from China. He did have a big heart for his employees and THAT is what he would be ashamed to see has declined in his company.

Sam Walton BUILT the Wal-Mart empire on Low prices, ability to buy in huge bulk, and MADE IN AMERICA. If he saw Wal-Mart TODAY, I am sure he would FIX all the problems that today's mis-management ignores. No more Wal-mart for me and my extended family - nothing but China-cheap crap, dangerous products, and ever-higher prices.

I have worked for wal-mart for 4 months. I am legally blind and should not have been in the unloading department. When I was hurting, for instance my legs or back, the managers did not care. They would not let me get a back brace until I complained about my back and had frequently asked for one, 2 weeks prior to being allowed a brace. I have a computer degree, and had frequently been asking to be put in the electronics department. The managers would not let me. We had a huge problem happen: I was asked by a manager to unload a double stacked pallet with the electric pallet jack, even though I did not have a license to operate. I made clear to her that I did not have the pre-requisites. She did not care. I brought it out with a pallet jack, the top pallet fell and broke 2 of her ribs. Even after this fact, AND having broken a $2000 TV, managment did not move it's biggest liability to the electronics dept. By the way, there was room, plenty of room for me there, being that there was only 1 person per day in that department. By the way, Mr. Scott, I have been posting the "High cost to low prices", movie everywhere, and are starting to burn copies and give them to employees. I know each person in America will spend $200,000,-$300,000 in their lifetime, if not more. I am glad to report that my mom is no longer a Wal-Mart shopper due to the factual information presented in the film. The age of Wal-Mart, is dying, the general public is waking up to your currupted and hurtful and oppressive business model. The stock is falling, people are tired of buying the 3rd world products and unregulated food. The age of Wal-Mart, is dead.

My son is deployed in Kuwait. My grand daughter was denied time to travel to Texas to see her uncle before he left for a year in Kuwait. She works at Walmart. Workers should realize that they are covered under the FMLA benefits and should demand to have the time off. There is nothing that any business can do if they use this benefit. My grand daughter was even told by a supervisor that she could not wear the button with my son's picture on it. Supposedly, Walmart supports the military. What a laugh!

I am from Big Spring, Texas and my husband worked for Walmart for 8 long years. I have always said if Target came to town they would be history. When they first opened up we had 5 other grocery stores here and now we just have HEB. Everyone else had to shut down. Where else can we shop other than the small HEB store which is very diffcult to shop if it is crowded. I have a child in the US Marines and the public has know about Wal-mart practices and how the LITTLE employees are treated. I have seen over the years many unfair practices with friends who worked for store #513 and it looks like it will never end and a NO WIN situation. we are a small town with nowhere to shop. We certainly can not cut our nose off to spite our face. there is no other competition here. I do give them credit for helping with donations to local charities and our school system and we are thankful for that but our military families are just shoved aside. My son will soon finish his MOS and be assigned a PDS very soon and for those families who still have to work there out of neccessity, may the Lord Bless you and your family and hope this will make a difference.
