Answer 1

i hate wal mart because they came to my small town and put about 7 stores out of business.

then after about 15 years, believe it or not, THEY CLOSED!

they built a supercenter about 30 miles away and told us, go do your shopping at the new supercenter.


***another thing*** 2 cash register lines open, 15 people in each line, 4 cash register lines closed.

***yet another thing*** in my town they paid their employees peanuts. they had no health insurance, couldnt afford it. when they got sick, or had a baby or need to go to the hospital, guess who paid the bill, THE TAXPAYERS! walmart was the biggest US corporation, and had the GDam taxpayers paying for their employees medical expenses.

Answer 2

assuming this somewhat occurred, i do in comparison to Wal-Mart because of the fact in lots of places it drove small companies out of city. It additionally became right into a maximum ideal reason for manufacturers going distant places. So on the same time as in the quick term it helped people out, in the long-term it has helped to undermine the muse for the yankee financial gadget. additionally on a greater own point, there continuously looks a line, and only 2 registers open. One time they did no longer % to grant me a refund even although I had the receipt for the product. I have been given loud adequate, and instructed them that i wanted call the law enforcement officials and that they gave in. Wal Mart is truthfully the worst shop I save at.

Answer 3

Wal-mart is good for America. if you look at a city where Wal-Mart came in, LONG TERM, the city or area prospered. It provides jobs. The hoopla about low wages--better than NO wages isn't it. I have a family member who has worked for Wal-Mart for 10 years, started the profit sharing program when she started, has health insurance and will retire wealthy, this is a reality. And the Mom and Pops that Wal-Mart allegedly put out of business. They were on the way out anyway. If you can't play, die. And they did.

Many politicians who campaign against it, shop there. No stopping it. Stop Whining.

Answer 4

I hate Wal-Mart too. Whenever I go there, it's like the whole trailer park had the same idea. The parking lot is always a hassle, the lines are long, and the aisles are always messy. It's my own stupidity though, for going there AGAIN and thinking it will be different.

Answer 5

I get aggravated when I'm in WalMart, and there are things that make me think I sort of hate it; but I think I may also have a love/hate relationship with it.

Just a couple of responses to some of what you said:

First, I don't think its right to assume their employees are broke. If you meant that WalMart doesn't pay them well that doesn't apply to all WalMarts. I've heard that the WalMart in my area pays higher than many other retailers pay. If you're assuming the employees are broke because they work there don't. Some are college students from comfortable families. Some are high school students. Some could be mothers who just want a little extra spending money or the money for their kid's college books etc., and you don't know that some of these people don't have financial resources beyond what they're being paid at WalMart. Retired people work just to have something to keep busy with sometimes. Sometimes a person who has been laid off from a really good job may just want to earn some money to pay a few bills. That person could have money coming from somewhere else to pay his mortgage (for example). Some may work there because they would like to work their way into some kind of management position, and that's how you do that at WalMart. It may mean such a person in that situation doesn't have the most impressive job skills but it doesn't mean they're broke either. People may work there as a "day job" if they're an artist, writer or early-stage entrepreneur, and spouses of people who don't get benefits from their jobs may work there as well.

The WalMart in my town is actually fairly organized and reasonably decent-looking (as far as any such store would) most of the times. On weekend afternoons - not so much I must admit.

You have to know what you're going into when you go to WalMart. It isn't a fine department store, and don't expect it to be. You can, however, find some very decent products at very good prices. All summer I've had some very nice little pots of petunias on a little table near my front walk. I got them at WalMart for 98 cents each. They have good prices on vitamins and cosmetics, shampoos, etc. You can buy something like a decent-brand coffee maker or a brand-name underwear of jeans for the kids. You have to know what you can get there that's good, and what you won't be able to find there; but its not a bad place as far as I'm concerned.

I don't want to hang out there. I go there once every month or six weeks and find whatever good prices there are to be found, and - yes - there is some element of chaos at times that makes me not want to go there all that often. If, however, you enjoy coming out of a store with a bag-full of stuff for - like - under $20 it can be a nifty place!

I know what you're saying, and I know what you mean about it, but I have to say I'm about 20% aggravated and snobbish about it, 20% liking WalMart, and 60% aware of the reality that it makes some sense to pay less for your shampoo, rubber tub mats, craft items, eyeglass repair kits, etc.

Its more appropriate for me to say that while I occasionally enjoy the good prices at WalMart I do have some "issues" with it. Hate? Maybe a little once in a while while I'm there, but never once I'm home with my bag o' bargains.

Answer 6

I hate Walmart too.... See Walmart the high cost of low price.

I haven't seen anything there that I couldn't buy elsewhere at the same or lower price. They come into a small town and destroy all the small family business's and then build a Super Walmart outside of town. So even the town doesn't get any revenue.
Its a predator corporation like Dell.

Answer 7

I hate Wal Mart because there is never an employee in the isle when you need one.

Answer 8

I F-ing hate Walmart

Answer 9

Walmart is the bane of my existence. As soon as my darling hubby graduates from nursing school and we have a real income again, I vow never to set foot in that God-forsaken dump again.

Answer 10

because you can't every find an employee, because its messy, because my dad almost got his car stolen there, because the only reason people shop there is for low prices, because their produce and meat suck, because everytime you buy an electronic the alarm goes off, because their employees have to do a cheer in their morning meetings, because the managers there think they're cool, because of everything. but yet I still shop there.
