Thankfully, we still have enough free speech to ask a company to treat thier employees better.

Evil wicked WalMart fed their employees Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings today. How do I know this? Well, my mother is hospitalized following a nasty fall yesterday, and I just returned home from shopping at WalMart for unexpected trip. We're driving across the state to bring Thanksgiving dinner to her since they can't make it here as planned. The cashier told us all about the wonderful meal WalMart provided for them. She was very thankful.

Thank you WalMart for being open today. Gas station too!

You're welcome (though we no longer have the gas staions in Kansas).

I love being open on Thanksgiving and in previous years, the blitz on Friday morning was great. I DO like my job.

I would like to see the bottom line for our Walnart this year. Any profit we made from sales at 10 pm and midnight was eaten up by scheduling too many people on hours that they weren't needed: night crew was told to come in 5 hours early and day crew then had to work over night --- but when the sale rush ended at 1 am, most workers did NOTHING for the next four hours.
