I still haven't met even one Walmart employee on "welfare". I know there are lots of senior citizens who work at Walmart to supplement their social security checks. Maybe that's where the "Govt. assistance" stats come from?
I know 2 girls that work the checkout at Walmart personally. They aren't on welfare. Matter of fact I first met them at Revolver (nightclub) at Santa Fe Station. They both have cars, cellphones, and apartments. And like most people they are part of a 2 income "family" (they both have boyfriends they live with).
I was at Walmart last night. I was greeted at the door by an elderly lady who is definitely getting a social security check and working to make more money.
I asked for help to find something from a young black woman who worked there.
Working the checkout was a young lady.
All of them had nice jewelry, makeup, hair done nicely, nice watches...nothing extravagant, but definitely not what anybody would call "poor".
"Slave" wages? Starting pay at minimum wage for an unskilled labor position is NOT "slave wages".
If you don't like the easy job at Walmart, you can always go stand in line at "ManPower" and hope someone stops and picks you for a crew to dig ditches or fence posts for minimum wages and hard labor.
Where do you get your freakin' work ethic from anyway?
Some of you guys weren't raised right. Go to work. Earn your way. Stop expecting the world to give you something. You aren't owed ANYTHING.
