Why don't you become CEO and then you can make the decision?
So why don't they just keep the jobs? Because it would be "unnecessary" costs?
Apparently you can only train a Human for one purpose at the many, many fine Walmart and Sams Club locations.
WalMart and Sam's club are going to have to streamline and have more efficient demos so that they can roll back their prices.
They've been steadily raising their prices around here. Somewhere along those lines they must have crossed a particular one. Kroger is opening new stores around here that carry all of the items that WalMart carries, and Kroger has dropped their food prices at all of their stores to never before seen new lows.
I expect WalMart to end up closing Sam's stores in the near future as an attempt to stay competitive.
It appears that China will sell to anybody.

Why can't they keep the jobs, if this was not a cut job? Trust me, this is a cut job, and nothing more than that.
A lot of stores have that, and still needs workers to stack things ectt.
Wal-Mart has started to use a lot more automation (e.g. self-checkouts, RFID chips), so they no longer need as many employees per store as they once did.
Thank goodness, 11,000 people have been saved from the evil grip of Wallmart!
This is horrible!
Quick, someone go talk to the CEO of Walmart. He needs to be informed that Businesses aren't there to make money. Businesses are just there to make jobs for people. That's their entire purpose. Don't they KNOW that? Don't they listen to the hardcore liberals. Stop with your stupid ideas that make business sense, that work better to generate a profit and do what you would think a business is for. THe soul purpose of a business is to give jobs to people.
If nothing else walmart needs to cut all their executives pays so they can give MORE jobs to people, cause that's the only purpose business serves. Just hire a few thousand people to, I know know, walk around and schuffle their feet to clean the floors. Sure, it won’t do much for business, but by god it will create jobs and what else is a business for.
We're finally getting our Walmart back after it flooded 13 feet. I think for a long time they didn't know what they wanted to do with it.
A new Lowes went up next door which might have been the kick they needed.
This store was heaven! Never too crowded, very sweet middle aged women working part time. Plenty of benches and a Burger King to wait for your friends still shopping. Between the Lowe's and the Super Walmart they've hired over 300 people back. That's so cool!
I saw a documentary that had former employees to include former store managers as well as trainers for store managers. Walmart pushes for record profits every yr. So even if they made billions of profit if it wasn't a record year people got canned. Profit is great but not at the expense of the people who got you there.

My first real job, where they took out SS, was for .50 and hour, seven days a week. and I was glad to have a Job. So don't cry to me about low wages.

lt's a lot of fun being here right now with Superbowl and Mardi Gras. Nothing like this has ever happened here. It's huge!Ahhhh...Burger King and Lowe's...manheaven......
NOLA - slowly, but surely comin' back baby...:thumbs:
Many of them make up for a low wage by supplementing it with welfare. So it works out in the end for these workers.
Your tax dollars hard at work to help subsidize Walmart's bottom line :mrgreen:
