Propaganda? These are KNOWN facts that they did these things. I think Wal-Mart has brainwashed you.
What about current and past employees suing them for employment practices? Locking in employees in stores? Making employees work OFF the clock? Or NOT paying overtime unless the employee complains?
I disagree 100% of what Target has done, but I don�t think Wal-Mart are bunch of saints.

Known facts blown out of proportion by pro-union pinheads. If anyone is brainwashed, it's Union members. [censored] unions!

Like those ladies who didn't get promoted when they felt they should? Not everyone gets promoted when they feel they should, life's not fair.

Those were decisions made by individual managers and are NOT Wal-Mart policy. Those individual managers had to face the music for their poor judgement. I can say that I have never been forced to work off the clock or not paid overtime and neither has anyone I work with and I work with quite a few people that have 5, 10 or more years with the company.
That's like blaming a car maker because the dealership you deal with is incompetent.

You can take your propaganda and shove it. You WON'T win this one with me.

I have a feeling you are right. I mean who else would start off posting that way?

I can conceed for the sake of argument that the actions alleged within those cases were taken by individual managers. But the decisions to NOT settle those cases and to resist them 100% of the way through trial, and to likely argue to the jury that Walmart did absolutely nothing wrong, those were NOT the decisions of a few isolated rogue managers. THOSE decisions WERE made by big fish in the company, the big fish who set the company's vision, the big fish who write the company's mission statements, the big fish who DO set company policy. Even you, Packrat, cannot think decisions over multi-million dollar, high profile public cases like those are just delegated to the second shift manager in paper goods at some store in Jackalope South Dakota. Your "it was the individual managers" defense demonstrates the lack of thought you've given this topic.
Now who's the pinhead?
Meanwhile Packrat, is there PERHAPS a miniscule, distant, remote possibility that the UAW, while it certainly has its corruption and flaws, did not go to bat for you, because of you? Are you SUCH a saint, that could NEVER possibly be any factor whatsoever? Gee whiz, you're so well spoken and reasonable, why would they be pleased to rid themselves of a model member like you?
And if you were so screwed over, please remember that YOU neither researched nor pursued your breach of fair representation rights against the UAW. I guess you would not learn about that while watching Maury.
Have a nice day.

Packrat, I never give you a difficult time when you're well-reasoned.
Maybe that's why they are sore ALL the time.
Merry Christmas.
