Hey Mike -what say we meet “Lee” down at the local titty bar after dinner at Hooters. We can drink some beers and have some fun. We can pay the tab with some of the funds the employees donate to charity.! No one will ever know the difference!

Take it from me...you can always get Walmart managers out of a Hooters, but you can never get the hooters out of a Walmart manager.

“What does the cost of anything, have to do with wages paid for a job?”

Said one insider, who asked not to be identified by name: “Wal-Mart claims that these ($7.95 jeans) are not loss leaders. Well, if that’s true, imagine the costs of the denim, the zippers, the buttons, the shipping costs, the store overhead, and there certainly isn’t much room left over to pay for the costs of labor. I love free trade, but this makes even me uncomfortable.”
