He says that like it's a bad thing.
Dear WalMart Employee:
Thanks to the hard work of all of our associates, we are growing our business even in a dark and challenging economic environment. We are proud that our job losses have been strategic rather than economic in nature. Please find enclosed an annual bonus,which represents workers' shares of our profits.
For those interested in unionizing, please circle one of the following:
A. Yes, I would like to unionize, and therefore send a healthy portion of this check to a group that will use the proceeds to ensure that (i) the Union Country Club is properly maintained*, (ii) Union management makes at least as much money as executive management, and (iii) you will have an extra $5 in unemployment benefits in the event that WalMart lays you off.
B. No, I prefer to receive profit shares for my relatively unskilled, hourly job, and I do not wish to send money to Union management. Also, I wish to receive a similar check next year.
* - Union members attempting to enter Country Club property will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Thanks and regards,
WalMart
