Oh, and Wal-Mart hires a lot of people over 55. Where else have you seen that happening lately


LOL! Right. Wal-Mart greeters, who are generally nice, elderly people.

Well, they are not given 40 hrs of work, meaning Wal-Mart does not need to provide insurance and other benefits for these people. A lot of their minimum wagers work less than 35 hrs as well - meaning Wal-Mart gets out of paying benefits for them as well.

That Wal-Mart employees are usually grouchy and uncaring is NOT suprising.

Wal-Mart. The friendly employer. Right.

I'm not just talking about the greeters, who I assume are part-timers. This store has over-55's working in various positions. This suits its customer demographic, which draws heavily from Sun City just down the road.

How many over-55's does your average Democrat-run, politically correct San Francisco design house employ?
