Who here looks down on us people who work at wal-mart?

Question

I work at wal-mart, in a snooty weathy area, and people won't even look at me, like I'm an animal or something....or if they do look at me, its like, how sad you are to work here, you who have no future.
Or we get the mean illegal mexicans who work for the rich people
here, who give me dirty, mean looks! Candy says they are giving us the evil eye and putting a hex on us from some dusty village south of the border where they believe in witchcraft and all that ancient Maya stuff.
So, why can't people be nicer to me? People, I am not an animal,
I'm a human being(didn't John Hurt say that in "elephant man"
or something)......I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore(didn't Peter Finch win a supporting actor oscar for saying something like that in Network or something?)

Be nice to us Wal-mart cretins.....we have emotions and feelings, much as you folks have....and we hurt........

How could it ba a good company but not pay that well? You mean its a profitable company(for the Wal-mart family and shareholders)

Wal-Mart's Walton Family:
The Beasts of Bentonville
by Richard Freeman
[Note: Figures in this article are available to paying subscribers to Electronic Intelligence Weekly.]

The Walton family, which founded and today controls Wal-Mart, lives on blood money. Operating jointly with the City of London-Wall Street bankers, it became the world's wealthiest family by decimating the U.S. and world physical economies, and by applying ferocious austerity, driving wages and living standards beneath the level needed for existence. Forbes magazine places the worth of the family at greater than $100 billion.

The threat posed by the Waltons is not merely in the size of their fortune. Older monied families such as the Mellons, Rockefellers, and the corrupted Ford family

Sorry charlie, but a crappy job is a crappy job.......wal-mart is so dead-end that they make documentaries against the poverty

I wonder if Wal-mart carries the dvd above.
Do you think it might be on sale? LOL

Wal.Mart is a modern day slave plantation!

garbuster, I live in Pine Bluff Arkansas,
and out here Wal-mart would prob be your equivalent of Macy's or nordstroms.
You must remember, these are people
whose ancestors just started walking upright three generations ago.
Yes, they are snooty, but this is Arkansas
for Crissakes...

Madhungarian. I weep working at wal-mart as I think of all the jobs I'm displacing, as I collect my lousy 6 dollars an hour with no benefits. Honey, this is the only job in these
parts. If I seriously racked my brain over the world displacement and outsourcing situation, I'd die of hunger here in this miserable nothing burg in the middle of nowhere! Believe me, I weep for the jobs I
displace all over mid-america daily. But I weep more for little Timmy, as he cries
as my wives teets dry up, and I wake up in the middle of the night looking in the couch cushions for chump change to buy baby formula at wal-mart(which is on sale for 8.889 BTW).

Answer 1

I don't look down on you, I feel sorry for you.

You work at a demanding job.
You get less than stellar pay.
You get sorry benefits.
You work for a company that is killing American manufacturing and companies, and you are too naive to realize it.
You buy into the belief that Wal-Mart cares about helping Americans when they are actually taking jobs away from them by forcing companis to move production overseas to remain profitable.
You're a cog in a machine that is destroying our country so people can save a quarter on a bag of potato chips.

I don't look down on you, I pity you.

Answer 2

I worked at Wal Mart as a second job. It's actually a good company. It doesn't pay that well....but.....Thing is, it doesn't matter -- if you were working someplace else, when you are "just the employee" -- some rich people are just snobs. Plus, a lot of people (me included) walk around the store kind of with what I need to get on my mind -- not really thinking about the people working there. When I talk to them I'm always nice though. I think you MIGHT be just thinking they are all doing that to you but I bet a lot of it is in your own head (or your thinking something that isn't going on in their head).

Answer 3

i live in a small, low-rent town in northern california. we have a walmart here, and everyone looks workers there the same way you're speaking of. its not just rich people, the common-folk look down on you guys too! it IS because you work at walmart. why not work at target, and avoid disgusting john q. public any further? and quit whining, you dont see those illegals complaining about their jobs, do you? racist. oh! or mabye youre really ugly, and nobody has ever told you so. think about it. bottom feeder.
