Here's the Memo that Walmart Sent to its Managers on how to Respond to Wave of Protests

Here's the Memo that #Walmart Sent to its Managers on how to Respond to Wave of Protests
http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/Walmart-2.pdf #labor #walmartstrikers   Reading this purported memo destroys nearly all DUmp claoms.

(4.9 megabytes, dial-up warning! Note that the date is October 12, and there had only been the one or two strikes on October 1 preceding this. Organizing was beginning but I'm not sure if it yet indicated a national strike. This shows they've long since taken seriously any and all attempts at organizing and striking.)
No, it shows that they're following the law.
Here's why I drug it over...

5. I sent it to pin boy the other day

For the record, Press credentials and all, was not followed. 
GNads, you need to have some first. :loser:
Secondly, you didn't even read that memo, did you?  DUmbass.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Damn Obama economy.

Miriam doesn't know crap does she. Walmart does offer health insurance and my mother when she worked there and many of the other employees there work full time and did or have for years. Thy really don't even know anything then what they hear from their masters do they? Dimwits.

Hate to break it to everybody but $5 billion in new REVENUE is at max, $400 million. Which mean that Walmart gives in $20 billion and receives all of the new revenue goes back to them they only lose $19.6 billion. However as pointed out, that will get passed on to the barely surviving in the Oconomy strapped consumer. It is a $19.5 billion tax on all the poor. 
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Make that 4 thumbs up!   Where, if I might ask?
I'm almost embarrassed for them.

I thought getting goodies from the state was a good thing. Now they have the nerve to complain about it.  :mental:

Seriously does anyone believe that $25k, $12/hr would satisfy them?



That would not go very far in California!

Sounds like a great deal. Tell you what cavers wanna prosper? Everyone send me $20 and I will send you $4 to $5 dollars in return.
I won't hold my breath waiting for the $20 bills.  :-)



How about a $30 or $60 bill?   :-) :-)

The OWSsies have proven that even $100K for some of them still isn't enough.

And I'm gonna just throw a little something out there for all you DUmmies to chew on.  I've been around the block a time or two, and human nature being what it is, would you think most DUmmies like yourselves would prefer to 1--not have a job or have one with such a low income that "da gubmint" will provide you with lots of free shit, or 2--work to an income level to just enough to where you won't qualify for said freebies any longer?  IOW, if you raised the rate of pay by 50 percent, would those people work the same hours, or cut back to the point they still get their "free shit?"

Yeah, that's kinda what I thought.

Oh, and please show me how many people are working for minimum wage in the US (about 4 million at last count) and how many of them are the sole breadwinners in their household (damn few.)

You may go now.

A few of the smaller small town Wal Marts that I knew of had alot of parents working while the kids were in school. It gave them a chance to earn extra money and still be home in time to get the kids off the bus.
