Well, they're already accustomed to being stuck with a shit job, for shit pay, working for a bunch of assholes who don't appreciate or deserve their efforts. So they should fit right in. :coffee:

I guess your directional school gave you bonus points for grading your own exams, so you must have graduated summa. You're worse than JellyBelly. Keep on spinning, klam. Mr. Living Wage. :lol:

PR stunt IMHO - they're coupling this with an announcement to buy $50B in American products over the next 10 yrs. That's a drop in the bucket for their annual spend, but at least they'll be slightly less Chinese.

Wal-Mart does nothing that isn't self serving - most Wally world shoppers think $50B is a lot of money to the company when it really isn't and they project the public perception that they're supporting American vets while continuing to not provide insurance to their civilian employees. Wally world has over 1.4M employees and very high turnover (they need the bodies), so this publicity stunt plays quite well into their plans.

Speaking of PR stunts, anybody see all the kids surrounding the Prez at the presser announcement today?

Yes and was more sickening than the ones that got shot. What a POS using this to gain political credit.
