While I’m not sure Tyler warrants them, we now have three Wal-Mart Supercenters in town. The idea of one stop discount shopping is a fine idea. I’m a firm believer in free enterprise capitalism. So if I’m critical of the store it’s not about politics. It is about the quality of the product and care given by the employees to address customer needs as well as maintain the store.
The South Broadway and the Troup locations are pretty nice stores. Although they are not the Wal-Mart’s I usually shop, I find that they are orderly and the employees are generally fairly knowledgeable. I have heard the retail giant often poked fun at for its greeters. Not unlike walking into church there is usually someone there to welcome and if necessary point the customer in the direction of what he or she is looking for. This is not something I require in a department store but it is nice. The employees at these locals are mostly neat in appearance, and reflect positively on their perspective stores.
This is not my impression of the highway 64 location. Upon entering the store the customer is “greeted” by an employee who stands and listlessly stares in the direction those entering the building. The store’s appearance is another problem. It is generally disorganized, and what is more, the employees usually know very little about the products they sell. On more than one occasion, I’ve had workers tell me they were unable to find what I was looking for and simply leave me to search the aisle on my own. And then there are the customers themselves… I guess I’ve just never experienced the joy that loitering in a department store can bring.
As a rule, I like Wal-Mart’s low prices and their community involvement. The company is a good company, but some of the local outlets need some serious quality control. In comparison with other companies like Target who’s stores are always neat and the employees are always attractive, Wal-Mart has its work cut out for it. For those who have a choice of Supercenters I would shy away from the 64 location. Better yet, try shopping on line at www.walmart.com.
Facebook Myspace avatar artwork for those who detest Obama
November 14th, 2010I found this great avatar to use as your Facebook or Myspace avatar artwork for a profile perhaps.
As you may know Obama personally hired several outspoken marxist and communists to be czars in hos administration.
Van Jones was hired as the Green Jobs czar. When he wad exposed to be a communist party activist he was fired because he received too much bad publicity.
The Green Party is just a disguised name for the communist party. They hijack something as noble a pursuit as cleaning up pollution and the environment and hide communism in it.
They then call this “social justice” as a more acceptible concept to swallow by the masses while moving the country further towards socialistic and communistic ideas.
Many young people and college students are believing the lies with no grip on US and world history.
It is clear from those Obama hired in his administration that he is a spoke in the wheel towards the US turning away from capitalism and individual rights and freedom.
