Wolf Link, they don't have Wal-Marts in the UK. Jeesh. :)

...I think. I could be wrong, though.

JDog

Oh, sorry, I didnt know that, your lucky, you don't want one... most employes are lazy.

Commodore Axilon

Well, looks like I was wrong...kind of. Wal-Mart operates in the UK as ASDA. So breton, do you have any problems with ASDA?

Commodore Axilon

The name of Wal-Mart in the UK.

JDog

Oh, thanks for clearing that up.

the thing about Wal-Mart is that they hire people who can't get a job anywhere else, that way they don't have a choice about their wages. So what does that say about work ethic of the employees who can't get a job anywhere else? excluding disabled people and such, they usually are fine, they are happy that Wal-Mart would get a job, most of the world is mean and won't hire disabled people...so in a way it's good we have Wal-Mart.

That doesn't excuse them from being ruthless imperialists.

Commodore Axilon, you get a cookie.

As for me, I'm disabled (hearing and visual impaired) and I highly doubt wal mart would be able to find me a job in doing anything. I prefer to write, not go with menial labor.

Wal Mart won't allow Unions either, so that's why they can do pretty much whatever they want. Which, in a sense, is bad.

But that also depends on your views on Unions. I love my Union (medical and dental insurence and retirement plan and job security) but one of my best friends, who is a carpenter, will not join a Union because he said he can make more money and can take on any job he wants instead of being told what jobs he can take.
