>> They make people work hours like 12:00 to 3:00 and then come back to work 6:00 to 9:00 and then work the same wacky shift the next day and STILL keep them at 30 hours or less so they can't be considered full time. I don't know whether WMT did this before Obamacare, but they are certainly more likely to do it now than they were five years ago. You figure that out. As to split shifts, I would point out that Walmart doesn't "make" anyone work. If a person working at Walmart wants to get a job somewhere else, they're free to do so.

but most of their mainline employees are essentially poor too and they treat them like DIRT. apparently the other alternatives are worse, or nobody would be willing to work at walmart
