More here:

"Have you seen the latest TV commercials from Wal-Mart? Not the ads where the swashbuckling smiley face slashes prices, but the ones where women employees extol the virtues of working for the retail giant. These ads are not trying to sell products; they are peddling warm feelings about the company itself, which is under assault from NOW and others for its mistreatment of employees. Could it be that the world's largest corporation is concerned about its corporate image? Is word finally getting out that greed and discrimination go right along with every day low prices? .."

2. I live here too

is the campaign I have heard. When we saw how unsafe the park is us Walmart-ites put on our Nikes and jumpsuit, cut off our dicks and followed our comet of a supervisor to the parks to make the equipment safe for kids. Why? Because We live here too and Walmart is working to make things better. Well, after we dissemated your hometown's downtown and dumbed down your population with product that they don't need made in countries of than the US even though we ranb a campaign of US Only. :puke:

3. Does Wal-Mart force employees to volunteer?

n/t.

5. I have no proof of that

but then, I wouldn't have guessed that they forced people to work after they clocked out so they could get around overtime rules.

6. That would be interesting to know...

Any former WM (or current) employees made to volunteer your time in order to make WM look good?
