As much as people complain about union jobs taking 1% of a paycheck, plus a $20 fee each month, it certainly stops the sort of behavior in your story. A manager can't just go on a power trip one day because they're feeling butthurt about something in their personal life and want to take it out on somebody. If I can thank Walmart for anything, it's that my experience at their deli was what gave me a pretty big wage boost at Smith's now, so having to pay extra fees for being in a union does not bother me one bit, lol. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA <cite>BakonBitz posted [p:958185859] in Starting a...

Sure as shit didn't pay me an extra dollar. But on a related note, I applied for Costco while I was working there, and Costcos wages are insane. 15/16 CAD starting off, with 18/19 for Sundays and it can go all the way up to close to 30 dollars. In comparison, Wal-Mart promised me 13 starting off since I have experience, but only gave me 12.50, and that was after 3 years. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:958199660] in Starting a...

Yup they were the worst when I worked at the Casino as well. Everyone is all rested up and ready to be annoying and needy. Also, TC, I fully understand anxiety vomiting...believe me. But you should understand that you are capable, and it's just Walmart, you probably outclass a huge portion of the staff there.
