I dont know where you live,but where I live Wal-mart pays 3 dollars above minumum wage to all new hires.They are the 2nd largest employer in my county.1st largest is Ohio University.There are almost no other jobs to speak of in this area,all the small shops already have the 3-4 employees they need.Why do you hate Wal-mart so much?They provide good paying jobs and low prices to help people stretch thier budget better.How many jobs and at what wage do you provide?
I don’t know what our Walmart pays, but I was surprised to find out that they give bonuses. A woman from church worked at Walmart and commented that she was happy to see the influx of students this past September because she would get a bonus on the increased sales for the month.
I know that sometimes it was tight for her, but she managed to support her child and pay her rent, so she was making at least enough to do that.
I hate Walmart because I hate crowds and traffic (not to mention shopping and the Walmart clientelle). The jobs are great for high school students and reducing the dole for welfare rats, but the vets deserve better.
