If I read the article correctly, it sounds like Target already uses a similar system for their scheduling. I am not a fan of Wal-Mart by any means, and as a result, I don't shop there.

I have no doubt that this could very well result in people who were used to be full-time employees being reduced to part-time hours depending on schedule forecasting and their availability. Who knows, it might mean more people on welfare as a result. It's unfortunate for those people. I would think that if the employees are truly that upset about it maybe they'd finally decide they should unionize or strike, etc., or start looking for a job elsewhere (which may require them to move).
