You may have heard that the Supreme Court threw out a class action lawsuit against WalMart trying to extract money for every female employee, including those hired after the lawsuit was filed – for discrimination in the better paying management jobs<\/p>\n
Today, I went to WalMart to annoy the Union Democrats and the anti-China tea party folks by shopping there.\u00a0\u00a0 As I was coming in, my danger antenna immediately went up.\u00a0\u00a0 An elderly woman (60ish) was riding one of those Scooter things out the in door.\u00a0 She didn’t have any merchandise, and was looking like she was going to go out the little door they push the carts into the store through – she also seemed to be listening to something in her ear.\u00a0\u00a0 Okay, whatever.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
The store was a mess – my local store has a food section (about 4 aisles), but isn’t a full SuperWalmart.\u00a0\u00a0 It was a building that used to be something else and I don’t think WalMart has yet decided to confront the unionized supermarket stores in Connecticut.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m about the last person to complain about anything, but I felt a need to say something….<\/p>\n
So as I was leaving, the greeter said goodbye to me, and I walked over and said there was something I think someone needed to know – she pointed to the woman in the scooter and said “She’s the manager”.<\/p>\n
W00t!\u00a0\u00a0 triple play – my walmart has a handicapped woman with gray hair running the place (poorly).\u00a0\u00a0 I don’t think she is transgender, but I didn’t ask.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I feel so much more compassionate now that my store is diverse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
