Oct 10, 2012
Walmart employees started protesting to draw attention to the company's treatment of its workers.
Since the initial demonstrations, Walmart employees across the country have been joining the fight against walmart's unfair labor practices, un-safe (dangerous), working conditions, demanding better pay and benefits along with better treatment.
Unfair Labor Practices Legal Information Institute/Cornell Law School
In United States labor law, the term unfair labor practice refers to certain actions taken by employers that violate the National Labor Relations Act, (NLRA) and other legislation.
Such acts are investigated by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
If you want better working conditions; Yes, Protest, Strike, Join A Union And Vote. Democratic, of course.

Note To Walmart,
Better paid workers are more productive, care about the company they work for, and generally perform their tasks better.
Give employees stable, reliable work schedules in order for them to get the proper rest in between.
Give them steady, same weekly hours. No switching, adding more, giving less. People need steady hours that they can rely on. They can't just keep changing their sleep schedules.
It impedes their ability to get adequate REM sleep, which is very important.
A tired worker, is not a productive worker.
walmart needs a new managerial system. Hire responsible people, who know what they're actually doing and pay them enough to care.
Pay a decent wage, and hire enough employees to assist customers. I can never find anyone to help me in wallmat and walk away buying less.
Finally, customers don't like workers being exploited.
Customers will not cross picket lines (even if there's none at the store we shop in) and take their business elsewhere.
I won't cross a picket line; in solidarity with all the walmart workers nationwide who are striking!
I have never crossed a picket line, and never will, even if my local walmart store, isn't striking.
I'm not shopping at walmart, until they treat their workers better. I don't need more cheap junk anyway and walmart's not that cheap.
We customers are all; (or were, at one time), employees somewhere and we will stick together. No doubt, many of us have encountered rotten bosses too.
I remember when walmart first started. Sam Walton envisioned a chain of well run stores that valued their employees. What happened since then, I don't know.
In business; walmart, you have to spend money, to make money and you get what you pay for. "No man's error becomes his own law; nor obliges him to persist in it". Thomas Hobbes
