One of my sons has worked at walmart for over a year while he is going to school. Most hours he gets is 32 and even with the 95% profit share / bonuses he gets quarterly, he still qualifies for aid and is considered near poverty level. They cut almost everyone's hours last month to 24 a week so they would have enough in the budget budget to pay overtime this month. Now he is working crazy hours that will continue until new years. fuck walmart
