I've hit the back button that took me away from the post I had written, but I found out that I can hit the forward button and it will take me back to the post I had just written.

77. My best friend from high school is a
 corporate attorney for WalMart. I cannot fathom how she does it, because politically she's a liberal Democrat. Might well be quite at home if she were to visit DU.

She's been with them at least 15 years now, and she has always complained rather bitterly about training men in her department who then get promoted over her. My last visit to her about four years ago, she showed me where newcomers (male) to her department lived: in veritable mansions considerable more lavish than her perfectly nice place. I don't understand why she stays with them. I don't know why she's not part of the gender discrimination lawsuit. Surely she could work for any other corporation and earn as much money. Maybe even more, considering they clearly don't pay their female corporate attorneys as well as the male ones.

well, for someone who has worked for Walmart 7 years 10 months and a handful of days. this is not true. Three factors fit into this, sales/profit, loss and safety.

You guys are really smart, you will understand.

We compare our sales on a year to date basis....so say we(base #'s)made 50,000.00 on 12/7/2010 today we may have made 75,000.00, therefore 25000.00 is our profit.then we take our losses which include claims(broken items sent back to warehouse),shrink(theft), and store use items. If someone is negligent and causes an accident(associate or customer), all these UNpredictable liabilities affect our bottom line...once the numbers are computed, the remainder becomes our profitsharing check.


It does go by store, full timers got 59.00 and part-timers got thirty at our store. There are alot of stores that don't do well at all ever!!! I have gotten 500.00 checks before in other quarters, so a store can do really well.....

As far as charities go, each store or district has a specific charity. Ours is Children Miracle Network at the Barbara Bush Children's Hospital at Maine Medical Center in Portland. We have associates that make stuff for it(For example I make 30 coin pouches, that i donate towards that, Other associates do different things)and Carolyn(volunteer) has a little table that she sells the stuff on and takes donations...

Not all stores do that...Some might just do a lump sum every month, but, it will affect the bottom line of that particular store...

What you said.

I worked at Wallyworld a few times in my life, and even us part-timers got a bonus check every quarter.  One quarter, I got one for over $250, which was more than my paycheck.

Walmart also donates to local and national charities as well, neither affects what the employees do or don't get.

The deal with Ms. Ed is that she lies about the stupidest, most harmless, most innocent things; cases where telling the truth would be easier and quicker.

The unappellated eohippus, along with the burdened primitive, the now gone-away "Tyler Durden" primitive, is that she lies about things that might escape less-sharp eyes.  You might recall the burdened primitive used to bitch and moan about Ronald Reagan causing him to lose is good job in the oil industry down in Texas.....when as it turned out, he lost it in 1977, when Jimmy Carter was in the White House.

The burdened primitive went out to lunch on that story for years on Skins's island; that Reagan had lost him that job.

With Ms. Ed, even if she says something like "I went to the hardware store this morning," it's a lie.

I don't know if she could have matched nutcase nadin, but around mid-year she had the chance to be a strong contender.

If she had followed up on her imaginary move from that dick-infested singlewide in a dusty, crappy Texas trailer park, into the decrepit, falling-down abandoned farmhouse, it could have been a great story.

And after giving us glimpses into the calamitous life of her slutty, deadbeat daughter, she just shut that storyline down. They don't call her Horse with no Brain for no reason.

I run across DU's Tyler Durden in a local forum every now and then. He's from Flint, MI.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

46. I got my bonus-----I work for Walmart
   
I work part time for them, and while there are many things the corporation does that I find distasteful, I must make corrections when necessary. Perhaps that applied to one particular store because I indeed did get my quarterly bonus.

I loathe Wal-Mart but I'm glad that not all stores are quite as bad as the one described in the OP. Not that being better than an abusive slavemaster is a *huge* compliment....

seem right here, there are several on here that say the same thing, but everyone is still jumping on the bandwagon to castigate.

Thanks for bringing those over, madam.

I tell you, Ms. Ed is a ****ing liar.

She needs to be called out on this.

As you know, I'm thinking about adding a "laughingstock" and a "foot-in-the-mouth" for the Top DUmmies of 2012; next year.

I'm also thinking about "the biggest liar on Skins's island;" I'm sure there'd be just one nominee, and that nominee'd get 100% of the votes.

Retail is a fascinating industry. Inventory control, statistics, how  something as simple as weather can control our sales.
Like today, using my telzon, I was able to tract how many christmas trees we were selling per hour!!
Though making a profit is the ultimate objective, getting rid of the inventory is just as important. Nobody wants lingering inventory that will take up space, and will eventually become a loss and affect the bottom line...
It sounds kind of ho hum to alot of you , I am sure. I put so much into my job, I think that is why i get so much pleasure out of it.... making my customers happy makes me feel accomplished....
