Also, I'm saying that ALL wal-mart benefits aren't adequate. Are you a retard? I did say that the pay scale differs, but not the benefits.


I think it boils down to this, the cost of living and inflation have risen steadily in the last ten years, yet minimum wage hasn't. People are having to pay more, and getting paid less.
How many waitressing jobs have you had?
I've had 3. Made pretty good money.

How long have you worked at Wal-Mart?
I worked there a year. The full time people have good benefits, including 401k, great stock options and profit sharing.

And for the love of God, I'm glad I can make points without name-calling.

The cost of living has risen, and while min. wage hasn't, most people who have made an effort have seen increases in their pay.
