11. I, for one, salute their actions
I rarely walk into a Wal-Mart. In fact, only when I visit my mother, who shops there due to the low prices due I wander in - and I cannot convince her to stop shopping there even though financially, she's fine. I refuse to spend a dime there.

However, what I see is 60-70 year old "greeters" and really young or elderly cashiers, 70+ year old men who want to help carry-out purchases, and 30ish managers - who seem annoyed at cashiers who can't figure out the computer when it hits a glitch.

I see ageism and abuse of employees. Wal-Mart's policies of abuse of employees is well documented.

And, if all you feel is "sorry", well, I'm sorry for you.

Best regards,
Cindy in Fort Lauderdale
