WAL-MART...The Amerikan way

Wal-Mart recently has began making changes in the stores and some of them have been good. But they have made some really really bad ones that have caused me to not only write this blog but to find alternate places to spend my money. The first bad decision was to stop selling firearms in their stores. They have changed the inventories around and carry less choices of products. They are discontinuing layaway. The final straw... beginning in April, ALL associates will be scheduled for only 5 hours per day. How can they expect people to live on this!!! How do they figure a single mother with one or two kids to pay rent, food, elect, and all the other things her family needs on 25-30 hours???
You must ask yourself...Do I want to give my money to a company that devalues their employees as much as Wal-Mart?
What happened to the slogan " Our associates make the difference"?
I'm sure Sam Walton is spinning in his grave seeing what has happened to his once great company.
It's going to be a K-mart Christmas this year I can tell you.
