Walmart workers striking on Black Friday
http://money.cnn.com/2012/11/15/new...t-black-friday/
In response to union-busting and generally shitty work policies. Definitely hitting them where it hurts, probably the most important shopping day of the year. I'm interested in seeing how far they'll bend if it really affects their sales numbers.

Good for them. No one deserves to get swarmed by primal violent human nature.

I heard a woman was trampled to death on Long Island but she didn't work there. People are dickheads on Black Friday.

Nah. Depends on the store. There are ones down here that close and shit, which was news to me, cause in NY we run our Walmarts like cheap Brooklyn *****s, all night long. |

that's kind of funny wording since pretty much every Walmart is open 24 hours 7 days a week.
