hey buddy... get your facts strait. walmart does offer benefits to it's employees. I work for walmart and have all the insurance they offer... mostly cause i'm clutzy and i can find myself in some strange situations sometimes...
in fact yesturday i picked up a benefits card because i'm going to the gynochologist tomorrow :P if you would like to look up some benefits that walmart carries you can check out
www.walmartbenefits.com
i get medical, dental, aflac, discount cards, long term and short term disability, profit sharing 401k, a resources for living which will help with moving, depression , family problems (why the hell am i not using it i don't know).... they also offer stock purchasing plan for any walmart employee.... and worker's compensation.
sorry to rant but we don't need a union when we're taking care of ourselves... we also have the best wages of any other retail store. where else can you make 10.44 an hour? that's what i make.
