Massive strike?

I don't think so. Looks like a few disgruntled clowns making a lot of noise. We shall see.

Will anybody notice? Will anybody care? I don’t. There is no limitation on a disgruntled or unhappy employee GETTING ANOTHER JOB!! We live in a nation of lazy dumbasses.

I’m a skilled employee with many different certifications I had to study for and earn the privilege of the company schooling and paying for. During the time I only had my initial radiographer cert, I was making less than 15 dollars an hour. During that time my duties were akin to a burger flipper or shelf stocker..

if everyone at wal-mart magically made 15 dollars an hour the cost of living would probably go up with it. You can’t pay everyone a live-able wage at a low skill part time position.

Walmart should quickly start advertising that they may be hiring in the near future and numerous positions could be available.

Having people line up to hand in their resumes should make those with jobs reconsider.

WHY is it that employees ALWAYS seem to demand or strike for higher wages
when the company itself is in the midst of an economic downturn or on the ropes financially?

It’s time for my favorite Walmart joke.....

Charley, a new retiree greeter at Wal-Mart, just couldn’t seem to get to work on time.

Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker, really tidy, clean-shaven,

sharp minded and a real credit to the company and obviously demonstrating their

“Older Person Friendly” policies.

One day the boss called him into the office for a talk. “Charley, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang up job, but your being late so often is quite bothersome.”

“Yes, I know boss, and I am working on it.”

‘’Well good, you are a team player. That’s what I like to hear. It’s odd though you’re coming in late. I know you’re retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say if you came in late there?”

“They said, ‘Good morning General, can I get you coffee, sir?’’’

I gotta say, working at Walmart was one of the best entry-level, part time jobs I had when I was a kid.

Most of those holding the pickets will not be Wal-Mart employees
