There are some hard to find electronic parts that usually Radio Shack will have. I'll go to them for that but not much else. Why pay full retail when you can get a comparable product for discount at one of the other worst companies?
Obama has created so many new jobs that you'd think these stores would not be necessary.
Presidents have to work with the Congress to get anything done. Unfortunately, the right wing extremist individuals occupying Congress have dug in their heels and are hell-bent if they're going to allow any change from the Reaganist trickle-down BS system they put in place.
However, you seem to think President Obama has a magic wand that can rid Congress of these a-holes. Please tell me where that magic wand is, and hell, I'll use it!!

They understand that Barack is not qualified to propose anything of value. Being a community organizer does not make members of Congress who are mostly BUSINESS OWNERS back home inclined to go along with something he saw in a text book in college.
Whose opinion is more valid? The CEO of Marriott or some guy who scooped a few ice cream cones one summer as a teenager?
Dollar General is interesting because that's how I knew right away that this country was landing in the dumpster. Dollar Generals began to spring up everywhere along with right wing ideology, a sign that poverty was increasing by leaps and bounds. Dollar Generals and Goodwills - the CURRENT landscape of our once-great country since the right wingnuts took over.
Yeah, God forbid they open up stores where people can afford day-to-day items. How dare they. They should all be replaced by Whole Foods and Nordstrom's immediately.

Last week, husband and I went to a Walmart Super Center to pick up a few things. I grabbed a cart and he headed to the deli counter. About 30 minutes later I looped back to the Deli counter wondering what hole husband had fallen into. It was a mob of angry customers. The sole employee behind the deli counter
had taken off her apron and walked out the door. I missed all the fun. We decided to do without turkey and proceeded to the Check out.
None of the self serve stations were operational. The lines were long. I kept pushing the cart to aisle # 20 something. A guy was leaning on an end cap and I asked if the station was open, given the light was on.
No response although he did proceed to get behind the register.
Then came the bag of oranges. They would not scan and the guy goes bezerk- way off the deep end.
The bag finally scanned. Well, thank you baby Jesus.
The worst job in America must be managing a Walmart, smack dab in the middle of that whacked out general public and whacked out employees.
I occasionally shop at Walmart for the spectacle. I am never disappointed.
Lmao! Indeed. The employees that have it most together are the "greeters" at the entrance. A specific question about s product or service in a particular department is venerally met with deer in the headlights or an indifferent shrug.
Lowes and Home Depot are that way to. They are supposed to have "trade professionals" that can help you out buuuuuut, that's not really the case, most of the time. I used to tear my hair out Just looking for specialty tools. It was hard to find anyone who knew what a basin wrench is. Trying to explain what a closet auger is was an amusing interlude once to.
I was NOT surprised to see Dollar General on the list. A few years ago I took a temp job there doing set up for a new store (I'm off summers due to working for a school district), and they fired me after three days. I wasn't FAST ENOUGH stocking my area. They'd empthy the trucks, dump the contents, and you had to dig through it for stuff for your area and have it done in one hour. Half the time was spent searching for the ONLY ladder in the place that 15 people had to share...
Somebody's bonus was at stake - they almost didn't make their grand opening. The 8:00 a.m. opening ended up taking place 7:30 that evening...
I see this all the time at DG stores and their ilk.
Two employees hustling around with boxes stacked all over the place to the point customers can't even get thru aisles.
You know a job is hell if a young and thin kid is sweating thru his shirt as he rings you out.

I occasionally shop at Walmart. I go mostly because they have by far the best prices every day on motor oil and automotive care products (brake fluid, rags, etc.). I go during lunch to 2 or 3 different stores. I never have a problem. Easy in, easy out. I also recycle oil at Walmart, who makes it pathetically easy compared to other places that recycle oil (required by law around here).
