Well, Walmart laid me off today, they laid off all their minors b/c walmart wasnt making enough money (they figured saving $800 a week from payroll would save them??). Ah well, i guess any money that i was going to spend for mods will now just go to saving my car. Sucks being 17...gota quit guitar lessons too to save that $70 a month...and its snowing too so i cant drive around and make myself feel better...whats that song called again, oh yeah, fuel - bad day

 

NO Way. That Walmart needs more workers if anything....20 checkout lines and maybe three are open. I never go there because it takes 30 minutes to check out. Sorry to hear your misfortune. Although 17 and having a s2000 won't get ya to many violins in this forum.

 

Speaking of saving $800/week, that adds up quick. Papa Johns (my work place) cut back a quarter they paid us per order we took out because of the sluggish economy, and that amounts to $900/year for me. There's 60 stores in Houston alone, so multiply $900 X 60 X 12 (average # drivers per store), that roughly equals $650,000. Now multiply that by the number of cities that Papa Johns is located. All that because of a quarter! I would think $800/week amounts to even higher numbers.

Whats the snow like in NJ???

 

Just started about an hour ago (Northern NJ). We're hearing anything from 18" to 25" by time its over tomorrow.

We've heard that you guys got hit hard in MD.

 

Wow, Walmart is paying 700/wk = 3200/month! That's alot of dough for a cashier. Are you a manager?

 

I brush the snow off my covered S every couple of hours. The resulting snow surrounding the car is starting to get as high as the hood. I have no idea how I'm going to get to work tomorrow.

 

thoe, i dont think its all the walmarts, in fact, im going to apply to the one in mount olive soon b/c i think they might have an opening...it really doesnt make sense to me b/c with the number of cashiers they had, they barely made it through, i didnt bother finishing off my shift tonight and their lines were piling up, even the csms (ppl in red vests not blue) had to get on register...as i was talkin to one of my coworkers some lady came up and was like can you open up another register? i got a good chuckle out of that....S2020, it wasnt 700/wk per employee, i only made $200 a week, and 4 of us minors got laid off...
