Well, if it does start raining, be sure and start a thread about it and don't forget to put "Obama" in the title.

It works every time.

Well when I was walking to work this morning I stubbed my toe and I screamed "damn Obama". I can't wait until he is gone. I will never stub my toe again.

See how easy that is? Six Degrees of Separation. It works every time.
Hmmm let me think....Bush was to be blamed for at least years after Obama took office...and still gets blamed if Obama and other Dem. have the chance...but it sounds very stupid to keep blaming him!

Obama doesn't allow more drilling, causing more US money to go abroad and gas prices almost doubled since he took office...so let's see who fault is that?

If you don't want to blame Obama than blame his government for it!

Stimilus would keep unemployment under 8%...Obama's own words well we all know it went far over that and still is higher....so let's think who is to blame for false promises.... Obama!

You are factually incorrect; however, even if it were true please connect the dots as to how this has anything to do with old people getting reassigned to different positions in Walmart. That was the original OP. Please do type fast the suspense is killing me.

I was told they no longer have the greaters....that means on both sides they are gone and the one at the garden entrance is gone...meaning 3 jobs killed!

Recently I heard on the radio and tv that Walmart with their clientele can't increase the prices so much to compensate for the high gas prices, so they have to take other measurements to stay profitable...

Obama just killed 3 jobs per store, that is hundreds of jobs Nation wide.

Lowes and Kohls stopped with employers discount, and that means that later on the only cut there is will be to cut jobs!

Obama has so much fun going on the late night shows, singing and going to a University to get the crowd in his favor talking about his student loan debt...

Why didn't Obama mention how great it was to even be accepted into Harvard and his wife in Princeton...my child wasn't and so many others can't even get in and if they get in can they afford it...well he could and he hardly worked as a lawyer after graduating and than to come up with that bs story like we will fall over no believe a word he says.

I'm sorry to see the greeters go and lose their job they seem to enjoyed what they were doing, but I understand that Walmart has to look at the balance sheet.
I never saw the need for them in the first place except to hassle the customers entering the store with return goods and setting off the buzzer when someone forgot to swipe the security bar on the package. Should a skuffle or tanglement break out, they couldn't run after the person anyways... much less wrestle with them or subdue them.

I agree it may not have been an important job although the system for returns seem to work and now it will be easier to take something for fre and than go back in without a receipt and return it...and in the end the honest customers have to pay higher prices to make up for the theft....BUT in the end the result is job losses.

Walmart may put them them else where in the store but is not adding employees maybe letting go of others.
