A Wal-Mart store, bank and fuel refinery? - Jan. 26, 2005 I hope this was the right place to post this, but it sent chills down my spine.
Wal-Mart is evil!!! I am a member of an organization that just shot down a plan to build three super wal-marts in our small town. we are called CCOD. Fight the Sprawl. I feel that it is inappropriate what they get away with.
One was just built in a small town about 6 or 7 miles from me. And everyone made a big deal about it, and people keep asking me, Are you going to go? and I havnt went yet, and I am not going to. They dont realize that there goes the town. The town is almost 200 years old. Now it will become a ghost town, because of greed.
Wal-mart gets away with sucking the life out of small towns. when there is nothing left for them to take they leave. All that remains, is nothing more then empty decay. They turn thriving communities into ghost towns.
in haiwii when digging they found a very old cematary. but despite that they still bult there fucking store
I worked for walmart for about 2 weeks, but it was in the toy department so that was alright. Worst place ever though. I opened one of those letter stencil sticker sets and spelled out slave on my name tag. I refused to wear the blue apron though. I don't know how i got away with that. But playing with toys all day was fun.
The walmart that was built not far from me was built in the middle of an old forest, and since walmart came other stores are popping up around it. Pretty soon the whole section of forests will be gone. Makes me so mad
That would be a monopoly. Hopefully, we'll stick to our precedents and laws and break it apart in the United States. Any large trust which hinders greatly the potentials of smaller businesses, local or chained, is illegal and will be broken up. At least... that's what used to be done back in the early 1900's with President Theadore Roosevelt... And also with Bill Gates and his Microsoft corporation. Microsoft, I am sure though, is making quite a bit of money anyway.
Wal-mart is like a giant leech, sucking the lifeblood out of Small Town America and leaving behind an empty shell. I don't shop Wal-mart for the following reasons: 1. They are to damned crowded and it's hard to find a place to park. 2. The employees don't seem very friendly or helpful, but then again, it's hard for employees to be in the best of moods when they are overwhelmed by huge crowds of people who sometimes seem on the verge of rioting. I know because I work at a car wash, and sometimes it seems as if people wait until we're short of help to show up and want their cars washed. I guess that's Murphy's Law of Business: The fewer employees on hand, the busier the place gets. 3. According to many lawsuits field against Wal-mart, they make people work off the clock, which is a violation of labor laws, and the 13th amendment, if you ask me, steal time from workers, say someone worked 35 hours, they might only payed for 31 hours. 4. Their prices are not really lower than their main competitors, Target and K-Mart. 5. It can be hard to find what you want or need at Wal-mart at times.
Teflon bastards are they! If you use teflon you shouldn't be cooking, oil season your pans, 1 it makes food taste better, 2 it's healthier, and 3 it's badass better nonstick (and you can use metal utensils!)
I have proof that Walmart is evil! I walked into a Walmart store this weekend, and I took this picture of the new greeter.
Last year they tore down the very first Target store, which was in Roseville MN, about two minutes from my dad's house. Target is so much better than Wal-Mart.
I have a big gripe with the "Walmart is Evil" crowd. If it really is that horrible, if it is destroying "small town America", it's not Walmarts fault, it's the people who shop there. If people would show some self control and stop shopping there it would disapear...
