Pre-empting SEIU to make them irrelevant, most likely.

Works for me.

I see more automated “self checkouts” in Wal-mart’s future. I hate the things ... depending on the time of day, they don’t have a lot of cashiers working, especially of the “20 or less items” variety.

“The company is addressing the very issues that we have been raising about the low pay and erratic scheduling, and acknowledging how many of us are being paid less than $10 an hour, and many workers like me, are not getting the hours we need,” Organization United for Respect at Walmart Leader Emily Wells said in a statement.

Perhaps Emily if you actually spent more time WORKING and less time “ORGANIZING,” you might actually be able to move into a managerial position with better pay.

This is what's wrong with the whiners. They cry about their job, but they do nothing that would lead them to a better job and an improved economic situation. They think being a cashier or a stock room clerk should be their life’s work and they should be paid as much as the CEO.

And they think this will stop the left-tards from continuing to try to destroy them?

Probably trying to hire English-speakers.

Wal-Mart: Hoping the crocodile will eat them last......

Wish they’d have done this years ago, I might not have left, now if only they could #1) Hire more employees so that their not understaffed in many departments and #2) Go to an individual based rewards system (instead of store-wide socialism) they’d actually start to improve their customer service.

beginning of the end of walmart. Just as when McDonalds caved to the left and ruined its french fries and starting serving salad.

FWIW Wal Mart has zero employees who make “minimum” wage. They always pay their employees more than the going minimum wage in the State.
