Why the hell is Walmart spinning $2.7 billion of wages increase (if it's even all wages increase) as a bright idea Walmart had? Walmart costs taxpayers $6.2 billion by underpaying their employees! And Walmart is one of the entities feeling a lot of pressure from Fight For $15!
I have seen this same Walmart commercial about the wages at least four times today.

Re: If you're going to lie, lie BIG
Why?
Every guy working there is lean and bufffed, while every girl in there is at MOST a size four.
Yet they claim to be for all kinds of sports fans, and carry the few items I want to add to our home weight collection. The closest to "buff" in our family is the youngest, who was immediately pressured by the salesperson to look at their new "whey protein supplements," just a few feet inside the door.
He told the clerk he's allergic to milk. "But this is WHEY, not milk!" The clerk kept insisting that he had "just the thing' for kiddo to 'bulk up faster.'
The management doesn't see anything wrong at ALL with their 'training.'

Ugh.

We don't shop there, even if it's the only place in town with item X. I'd rather do without FOREVER than support that kind of crap.

with their hiring practices it sounds like they are setting themselves up for an Abercrombie-esque type lawsuit, though someone would have to be able to "prove" discrimination.
