I work at Wal-Mart here in Canada as a store assistant-manager. And my blood isn't "blue" like we say here. Not at all, I may work for them but I know there are not as "clean" as their want you to know.

There's one thing that you need to know about Wal-Mart, their are BIG. And sometimes that play against them. Figure this... is a tackle from a All-Star Pro Veteran hurt less or more than one from a high school boys? More for sure! And that's want some compagnie don't understand with Wal-Mart, that their are in a whole another league! You win big and lose big... and the competition is fearless. And Wal-Mart is all about "business", I don't think their are as patriotic as their show, as long as their making money.

And as for the first article... Quote: "new movie technology called "DVD"" New?

making money is what wal-mart is all about. sure customers are nice and all but making money si what they do and they do it about 5 times better thant he next person. That story has to be quite a few years old though based off of some of the things that aren't done now . And for as packed as the store was on black friday like he described having only 1 skid per night is amazingly low especially for electronics dept.

its not great work and there is a lot fo stuff wrong with wal-mart but i've been in the electronics dept. daytime for a while now. Its fun and all but at the end of the day i want to gouge my eyes out and make my ears bleed. Some people are so .... blegh
