USA..
Walmart pays such minimal wages the employees get food stamps. Everything made in China and now threatening to move "HQ" off shore..
or....
Costco..about tenth the size pays above average wages and has a share plan...profits boom and rising each year.
your pick.
I've heard of Walmart - never heard of Costco .... we'll see how long they last shall we (because the ones who want the lowest prices will also want the highest wages).
It simply won't work ! |

Hope you went past the Margate Jobcentre today Pat, the amount of foreigners signing on is a joke, just proves the UK is a benefit haven. Iain has proven he is not up the job, work programme has failed. |

... and keeps the Pound shops staffed - they always complain about these but are first in the queue when they open each day !
Low prices = low quality staff
High(er) prices = better quality staff
You cannot have it any other way !
I don't really care what the staff do as long as they don't lick the bag to open it, but the pound shops I use seem to have better staff than most.
I hate it when checkout staff lick the bags to open, there is enough germs on the bags already. |
