2. I could have told you that...

... and I only worked there in the electronics dept. as a summer job.

Their anti-union movie is what got me. I already had a low opinion of Walmart when I went in there, but after I saw their propaganda film about how Unions are only looking for dues and they can't do anything to help workers did I realize how disgusting they really were. I loved the subtle threat in their film: "Walmart tries its best to be responsive to their associates needs, BUT if they were to sign with a union we couldn't work in their interests anymore."
