-- Posted by brandiwantsyournuts at 8:08 pm on July 1, 2008 walmart  is being sued because they broke labor laws 2 million times here. They had forced several workers to work overtime without extra pay and several times they were cutting  break times or not giving breaks  , as well as decreasing wages. I mean Ive hated the store for a while but they are just dispicable -- Posted by Latin Muscle at 8:09 pm on July 1, 2008 Slavery works. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 8:09 pm on July 1, 2008 Everybody should steal from them. -- Posted by Innuendo Girl at 8:09 pm on July 1, 2008 that sucks. but on the flip side, if they didn't want to work it, they could have just left and found another job. -- Posted by Latin Muscle at 8:10 pm on July 1, 2008 Quote: from Innuendo Girl at 8:09 pm on July 1, 2008 that sucks. but on the flip side, if they didn't want to work it, they could have just left and found another job. BAHAHAHA EXACTLY -- Posted by bluerosedangel at 8:10 pm on July 1, 2008 If that's the case, than I should so sue McDonalds for doing that to me. -- Posted by pujolsfan at 8:11 pm on July 1, 2008 i prefer to shop at target as apposed to walmart -- Posted by 2kewl4u2know at 8:11 pm on July 1, 2008 They've done a lot worse in a lot more states. -- Posted by reev at 8:12 pm on July 1, 2008 I worked at wal-mart for a couple months and it was the worst thing ever. They're a horrible company and the walton family are some seriously fucked up individuals. -- Posted by Meep123 at 8:15 pm on July 1, 2008 Walmart is a pretty great place. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 8:18 pm on July 1, 2008 Quote: from Meep123 at 8:15 pm on July 1, 2008 Walmart is a pretty great place.

It's not easy to find a job these days...   I agree that it's good for customers but not for the workers. -- Posted by Meep123 at 4:45 pm on July 2, 2008 Quote: from MushroomSatsujin at 11:18 pm on July 1, 2008 Quote: from Meep123 at 8:15 pm on July 1, 2008 Walmart is a pretty great place.

Hasn't stopped me in the past from enjoying cheap products, it won't now. -- Posted by nigeltheoutlaw at 10:33 pm on July 2, 2008 That's a surprise.   Wal-Mart has always been dispicable. This isn't the only time it's done this type of stuff. Once they tried to build a store over an ancienct sacred burial ground in Mexico. They ignored the people and the local government's protests and did it anyways. I prefer Target or Costco. The makers of the items may be treated just as bad, but at least the middleman's emplyees aren't. -- Posted by TheAntiBarbie at 11:02 pm on July 2, 2008 I can name three people off the top of my head who loved working at WalMart. -- Posted by nigeltheoutlaw at 11:09 pm on July 2, 2008 Quote: from TheAntiBarbie at 11:02 pm on July 2, 2008 I can name three people off the top of my head who loved working at WalMart. Three happy people out of a few hundred thousand isn't exactly a majority. -- Posted by TheAntiBarbie at 11:12 pm on July 2, 2008 You can't say that every single person aside from those three hated it. I'm just saying that it's not THAT bad. I'm sure there are worse places to work. Send these people to a sweat shop and see how much they whine about WalMart then. -- Posted by nigeltheoutlaw at 11:14 pm on July 2, 2008 Quote: from TheAntiBarbie at 11:12 pm on July 2, 2008 You can't say that every single person aside from those three hated it.

The amount of money can't be considered since Wal Mart is currently larger than the afformentioned companies, but I do recall that their profit margins are substantially larger than Wal Mart's. -- Posted by TheAntiBarbie at 10:10 pm on July 5, 2008 Quote: from nigeltheoutlaw at 2:44 am on July 3, 2008 Quote: from TheAntiBarbie at 11:31 pm on July 2, 2008 Quote: from nigeltheoutlaw at 2:20 am on July 3, 2008 Quote: from TheAntiBarbie at 11:17 pm on July 2, 2008 Quote: from nigeltheoutlaw at 2:14 am on July 3, 2008 Quote: from TheAntiBarbie at 11:12 pm on July 2, 2008 You can't say that every single person aside from those three hated it.

I get paid well. i like working for wal-mart -- Posted by macked at 5:35 pm on July 9, 2008 WAL MART> ALWAYS LOW WAGES, ALWAYS! I have always followed Wal Mart and their corruption of labor laws...a couple of years ago, in Canada, there was a bomb scare and the management decided that the employees must go in and search for any bomb. This is despicable...but what is more despicable are the employees who allow it....ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE! Poeple ought to understand Frances Perkins and her journey...
