What is so terrible about the working conditions at Walmart? I know for a fact that a vast majority of WLmarts have a waiting list of folks that want to work there. Is this jet another case of the “me” generation who want everything give to them? Is Walmart doing anything illegal in their hiring or employee compensation? I think not! Jealous comparisons between those at the bottom of a corporate pay scale to those at the top are just that: intellectual jealousy. Why are these people no complaining about celebrity earnings? Position and talent differences matter! If Walmart is so bad, leave and use all those talents the complainers have to simply get a better paying job. There is a waiting list of similarly talented and experienced folks who can say “Welcome to Walmart”!
“What is so terrible about the working conditions at Walmart?”
20 years ago a business professor told us how Wal-Mart succeeded by avoiding paying benefits to employees; while it is their right to do so, there is nothing wrong with calling them out on it. The fact is that these jobs are more suitable for high school students than adults; the pay is low, there are no benefits, etc.. The American birthrate has plummeted because it is difficult to provide for a family in these economic conditions; those that are having children are often having their living expenses provided for by the shrinking number of people with “good” jobs.
