A crafting friend of mine works at Walmart. The employees are treated like absolute CRAP, and not just during the holiday season.

Our daughter worked for Walmart for years and loved it. She took advantage of many perks that were offered to her, such as being able to transfer to a different store when they moved, educational benefits, and also many promotional opportunities. they also offer employment to people who other places will not hire. It is a big corporation and obviously not all of her coworkers and supervisors were exceptional people to work with, but the system and organization was great which is why the company has thrived.

” they also offer employment to people who other places will not hire.”

There is that. My first thought when I hear about people who are being treated badly is, “Go find another job.” Then I realize some have no skills that make it easy to move.

In our local Walmart we have employees who’ve been there for 30 years, and are proud of that. (But they aren’t happy.)

Anyhow, I’m glad I’m retired.

What was your daughter’s position, if I may ask?
