    I feel them...? 12.50 is too much for the type of service i get from wal-mart staffers,..when im forced to go there...? me reminds me of circuit city b4 they went down in flames..you walk into a circuit city, all their staff will be by the front door, soon as you make eye contact, them ? scatter like roaches...i see why best buy employees eating though..them ? dont leave you lone,be like "I SAID LET ME TALK TO MY WIFE BOUT IT!!!....? !!"

    dead @ the bolded...

    but eff them too...

    my wife asked a dude the other day "whats the difference between the galaxy note tablet and the galaxy tab?" his response "one's a tab and the other one is the note"

    my reaction

    Wal-Mart is one of the worse shopping experiences ever! Employee's who aren't familiar with the store or its products. Overzealous ? at the door that get paid to hi-lite a receipt. Too many ratchet hoes working and shopping there. Long lines, poor customers service, poor work ethic and the list goes on. Never again!


    greatest ? job i ever had thanks to the bolded.

    I work at Wal-Mart in Electronic and your right most people dont know that you can skip the lines at the front end and go to any register in the store. Just gotta make sure someone is there. Also, on that note I ? hate Wal-Mart too. ? them taking away my pay when I was away at school.

    Who really cares about this ? ? Jobs at Walmart were never meant to support families. If you want a "living" wage", then get some actual skills.

    everybody cant go to college... folks should be able to provide for their families with work. that actual skills comment sounds kinda condescending

    Guess America is making the minimum wage job the STANDARD job now. Wal Mart is owned by greedy ass people that will get their due in time.

    Plus college is costing more than a damn house these days. On top of lack of good paying jobs available.

    So does everyone who was making $12.50 at other jobs also get a raise?

    $12 an hour is about what you need to eek out an existence just about anywhere.

    McDonald's pays there working much less. People don't care tho. Because if McDonald's had to pay workers more, the mcdoubles might not be a dollar and the Mcribs may never come back

    If they pay 12.50 an hour all them poor people working there now are going to get pushed out by more middle class people.
    You think they hiring sheniqua or Mac fresh outta cell block C at 12.50 when they can get some college chick or Laid off worker for that.

    They gonna get what they asked for.

    They pushing carts. 12.50 for that is overboard. Yea you ? up & had a kid/s that you don't have the skills to take care of financially, but why do I have to pay you more for your ? up?

    & y'all trippin 2 of the baddest chicks I've ever seen in person I saw at a wally & a 50+ y/o that was bad as ? too. Maybe it just a Florida thing but it always be nice women in walmart.

    Because these the same people that make it possible for these corporate ? to even have a business. They are the demos. They are the consumers. They are America. Thinking you can give the rest of the country the shaft in the name of profits is criminal in every instance except if you own a company.

    i've said it before, i'll say it again, walmart needs serious change ups to take place in the higher ups department if these people aren't even willing to act humanely towards their own workers when they clearly have the money to do so. if they can't even do that, they need to be bought out by someone who will or shut down.

    Unfortunately they are a private family owned business. They can't be bought out.
