These stories make me sick. Go get further training for a job that pays better or get a second job. Nobody is stopping any of the Wal-Mart employees from quiting and finding a job that pays more than Wal-Mart. It's the "pursuit of happiness" and not the "guarantee of happiness".

People are attached to the familiar and the known. They don't like leaving their home towns. But that's changing. In the last six months I've dealt with a half a dozen low level employees from places like north carolina, texas and illinois who moved to NYC to work at blockbusters, car rental places and as temps to make a new start.
