Have you ever shopped at a Wal-Mart? The line level employess are cowed, gullible, idiots who can barely operate their cash registers and signed up for $8/hr slavery with no end, no path, no advancement in sight other than nights spent stocking shelves under flourescent light. I've personally seen no less than five employees "working together" to accomplish a firearm purchase and they failed, yes, after 45 minutes they handed me back my credit card and said "we can't do it." This is their last resort job, and when management threatens that during an organizing campaign they take the bait hook, line and sinker. Yet all that is beside the point, a comparison between Wal-Mart and the skilled workers at an airline leaves chasms of discrepancies.
