Yeah... I never got the whole Wal-Mart hate. I have friends that work there that have had jobs at other retail stores and they say it's not much different. One actually said he prefers them to working at K-Mart.

Maybe that's why you are supposed to stay with the company and get promoted and such? It's only dumb if you sit at the same position for 20 years.

Shopping pet peeve: People who walk in front of you when you're CLEARLY looking at the items on a shelf, without saying a darn thing, let alone saying "excuse me". How rude!
Yes, only at Walmart. K-mart and Target be damned, and don't get me started with Best Buy.
