Thet neraly always discharge al non essential easily replaceable employees just as soon as they become eligible for benefits such as annual pay raise medical and dental coverage and annual vacation time. It is just a product of our new generation wanting to live a lfe of luxury on the cheap. They give no loyality to anyone, stores, american manafacturers, localy owned and operated stores, fellow american employees. Just as long as they get every thing cheap they are happy. If walnart didn't sell the lead, mercury and cenical leaching p roducts from China and pay chepa wages, and supply no benefits they would have to raise prices. If that happened or new generation would just abandom them and hind a cheaper retailersthat sold such crap and screwed their employees. Cheap cell phones and flat screen ,oh my. That new way of the cheap items way of life is the bomb. It is not the fault of Walmart, it is the fault of the unethical consumers of today.
