		<description>Sorry yes maybe a rude clerk. Though personally I have never had a problem with Wal-Mart and returning an item. I have had many a problem with other stores where the service stinks. Seems to be a trait in Canada.</description>

		<description>They provide an income so low that many have to work 2 jobs to support themselves. 
 CAN YOU IMAGINE SMILING EVERYDAY AFTER FINISHING A GRAVEYARD SHIFT AND THEN GO TO WALL MART?
 This creates hardships in society,even traffic accidents etc.between jobs.
 They still need to cook meals and do laundry just like everyone else.
 Then if they can keep you as part time they avoid paying benefits.
 Our society has turned to foreigner's to fill these positions.
 In some cases Employment insurance pays higher rates.
 We are probably guilty of expecting to much from these employees
 If you look around there seems to be very little help on the floor(which means they are understaffed) which means they are now pressuring their employee's to work harder.
I see a managers shouting at the employees at times!
Our laws seem to favour someone withmoney so whenever a case goes against wall mart- seems like wall mart gets favoured
remember when the women fought for equality in wages? So many of them and as I understoodthey lost!!!
OUR SOCIETY NEEDS TO SEE THE PICTURE. 
I looks to me like we are going compete with china and our human rights seem to go that way to.
Our rights to fair negotiation are being stripped away from all of us everytime the govt overules union negotiations 
Let us say you get only what you pay for!
And if you choose to stand to the sidelines the rich will simply overuse you using your democratic govt and judges in their crafty ways

We need to track down where all the public funds are spent as well and might find that wealthy companies are receiving huge grants from these poor peoples hard work.
 



 Low wages creates less tax to our public purse</description>

		<description>Mike in Toronto...thank God that's where you live...I DO NOT want to be your friend, either.  The crap the cashiers have to put up with.....thought I won't make small talk with a customer unless they initiate it, I do say "hello" when they get to my till.  What absolutely annoys me is the customer who cannot even bother to say hello back.  Even more annoying is the customer who doesn't even acknowledge you....they keep on texting on their cell phone or whatever.  Now, if I totally ignored you, you'd be pissed.  I don't care who I work for, or for how much money, but just like the customer DEMANDS to be treated with respect, it's the same for the worker.  Remember......I, too, am a customer.  I get no special treatment (other than my 10% employee discount - which does not apply to everything -- and once a year a 20% discount on 3 items).  Funny how I've shopped at Wal-Mart since it came to Canada....and I can count on one hand the number of times anything has been wrong on my receipt.  

RationalMind says it well.  If I could even begin to tell you the things I've seen, heard, etc. when it comes to customers in the nearly 2 years I've worked at Wal-Mart, you'd see that no way is the customer perfect. We're all human, and humans make mistakes.  Get over it.</description>

		<description>By the way, it's not Wal-Mart trying to rip customers off.  It's human error.......the associates have to get the prices changed --- when they get info from head office and it involves hundreds of price changes, how fast do you think that is going to get done?  What the night crew can't get done (after all they are stocking shelves), the day crew has to do --- along with all their interruptions, etc.  That being said, the first day of a flyer, when chances are some prices might not yet have been changed, they'll override the register with the flyer price since at some point the shelves should match the flyer.  BUT, if Day 2 or so of the flyer being out and there is still an issue, at that point, the scanning code of practice will go into play since at that point WM staff will take the blame for not yet getting to something that they should have the day before.  I'm not on the floor, so I don't know all the ins and outs of the registers updated, the shelves/signs updated.....do know when something comes into question and we get a floor associate, they'll bring their gun to scan the item...the gun is the bible (and not the register) as I've been told.</description>

		<description>What is annoying is customers taking product off the shelf, then deciding they don't want a product and place it wherever they are (instead of going and placing it back on the shelf they got it from -- lazy bums --- or giving it to the cashier to have put back).  This makes it difficult for the cashier and the customer who finds this product (easy to know it doesn't belong where it is if it's a shampoo and found on the shelf in toys, but not so if placed near where they found it).  Customers don't read the shelves (other than prices --- how many actually look to see if the label on the shelf MATCHES the product that is there?  Not too many by what I've seen.  With that price sticker is the UPC code that is on the product, enough of a description (name/size) to know if what is there is correct.  Customers are constantly shifting things around and product ends up where it doesn't belong (walk in at 7 in the morning, shelves are pretty much tidy.....give it a few hours, and some shelves look like a tornado when through).  Some customers purposely move product with the hope that they'll get the scanning code of practice honoured and get an item free (or $10 off it if it is more than $10) --- all stores have to protect themselves from this happening.  Yes, there are times the registers are updated with the new correct price, but an associate hasn't gotten time yet to remove the old pricing on the shelf or the sign or whatever.  In those cases, the scanning code of practice is used.  However, if you picked up a product that doesn't belong where you found it, then don't expect it to happen -- yes, sometimes it is done, other times it isn't.  I found once someone came through with a frying pan that they claimed was $10 on the sign....$34.97 at the register.  I went to check since I couldn't get anyone from that department to confirm.  What I found is someone had moved a $10 price from one rack to another rack (by the way, this frying pan didn't even belong on THAT rack), and there was one other frying pan there like what the customer had.  Though the UPC code didn't match up with the label for $10, and there was one other there (more than likely placed there by a customer, not an associate), I honoured the $10 price; HOWEVER, I removed the frying pan there to where it belonged so that the next person coming along did not think they were getting a $34.97 (cast iron, by the way) frying pan for $10.  

Yet customers all love it when the price on the shelf, or on the article is higher than what comes up at the register.  Us cashiers won't question that, figuring either the register hasn't been changed yet to match, or else they've updated the register with the new lower price but just haven't changed the labels/signs yet to match.</description>

		<description>WalMart has an ad match guarantee- bring in an ad of a competitors and they will meet the price!
Superstore is way better! They check out all competitors ads and cut their prices so everyone benefits. 
Recently WalMart had a 1/2 price on some coffee, that I knew Superstore carried, and since my wife won't shop at WalMart, (she hates the company), I went to Superstore, looked for the coffee , and sure enough they had it priced down for everyone to benefit!
How many people pull Superstore, Sobeys and Safeway ads and then comparison shop at WalMart?
I love the aggressive pricing at Superstore! No matter who is advertising you will get a better deal by shopping at Superstore!</description>

		<description>Okay i am a csm at walmart and i have to say at my store we are only allowed to do the code of practice when the costumer brings it up. personaly i know its wrong but i can loose my.job if indont follow the rules. it also dosnt help if the costumer freaks out even though they may be right and they are cursing at the casheir i canask them to leave. example. someone working at customer service is the second most stressed out employee at walmart (behind csm) it was very busy at the desk and the phone rang and she picked it up because it was hee job. out of no where a customer was freaking out at her saying fuck this and fuck that. that associet takes antidepressent pills. how would you feel if someone walked up to you at work at told you arnt fucking do your job right when they dont even know what your job titlas are, and if you have any disorders. so next time dont freak out at the cashiers. i had so.eone who was a regular personwho complaind about our service and how we have lack of cashiers later they applied at walmart and got a job soon after he realized how challenging it can be to work at walmart.</description>

		<description>ok. walmart is a horrible company. i just stopped working there after getting a new job so heres the low down on the scop.
if u have a product and it has a pricetag on it but the shelf price says 5 and it scans at 32. but the tag on it says 32. you dont the the scop.
if it says it on the shelf and its not a ticketed item then by all means you get the scop. anything 10$ and under is free anything over we would take the 10$ off of the advertised price which is the price u seen on the shelf. now to how they treat employees. they dont give them enough cashiers for starters so the csm's are hard up for that (i was a csm)
when they call for people to come off the floor they dont respond.
walmart pinches pennies and only has the bare minimum cashiers out for customers and this is no lie. my store was being run at around 75-80% of its cashiers. this is walmart superstore in chatham.
also in chatham no one needs a flyer to price match. so everyone price-matches to whatever price they feel like paying and the cashier isnt allowed to question it unless it is a ridiculous amount. (chatham supercenter only) the bosses are lazy on a holiday i had 3 cashiers and my bosses bitched about my lineups when they kept the store open regular houirs with half the staff (not customer friendly) so i was the only one there from 230-1030 doing my job. as well as bitching about the lineups the duty managers were sitting on their asses in mcds watching this happen. no one came up from the floor to help after i had asked as we did not have enough employees that day as its volunteer. but why keep the store open regular hours? BECAUSE WALMART IS GREEDY and they dont czare about you or employees, why do you think they dont hire full time anymore, so they dont have to pay benefits. just to let everyone know: search fortune 500 companies and walmart is #1 above all the oil companies and they try and say every time you ask about more cashiers the answer is "its not in the budget" bullshit your budget is bigger than the united states and canadas budget combined. so please dont shop there i ask you. i dont anymore because i got a FULL TIME JOB which walmart doesnt offer so i can afford to shop elsewhere. but for those of you who cant i know how you feel as i was one of you when i worked there. kinda ironic. anyways i just wanted to share this and get it off my chest, this is an honest view from an x employee of walmart. the store has 0 incentives and expects their employees to push their walmart credit card and get people to sign up. employees actually get marked now on how many they get!!! so if they dont get many that goes against them. how much bullshit does everyone think that is. they cant control whether someone wants a CC or not and no one wants it at 18% imterest or higher i think. anyways have fun with this one guys and gals. any other questions i could answer for you just let me know!

		<description>Walmart is such a bad place for scams. My girlfriend quit work there about a month ago, and they have so far refused to give her holiday pay cheque to her. Every other employee there got theirs on friday, but they wont give it to her. the manager here told us that he doesnt have to pay her out for 45 days after she quits. is this true? or is it another bullshit scam that hes trying to pull on us??</description>
