I have to share this with everybody. I know I hate country music, but the topic of this is right up my alley as an HR major. So here you go and enjoy!

The Sad thing is that is almost what it is like in walmart you see the workes like pack mules draggging along these big heavy pallets of stuff like clororx all by themselves with Palletjacks that don't work.

The video couldn't be any more realistic and i mean that. It's a sad sad company to work for I am so happy i got out when i did

yes and I know that personally. I am an o/n stocker. I just got lucky enough to land the o/n automotive stocker job which keeps me in a different division from the rest of the store, so I won't be doing so much BS work and plus TLE only gets like 1 pallet every night, a big break for me... anyway I wanted to add how awesome I thought it was that when I got to work last night everyone was outside cause there was a bomb threat, and it turns out that all the wal-mart's in our area got bomb threats... I was only hoping that while we were all outside the building could have exploded so i could roast marshmallows
