Just in case you wondered....

I graduated. After working at Walmart for seven Christmases and more than six years, I took a job that didn't require me to wear the blue and khaki anymore.

I stop in now and again. The self-checks are still there, and the new program is even worse than the old one, so it seems from the attendants' frustration.

Lots of the same staff, but of course, some new ones. The constant question: do you miss it?

I miss people, but not Walmart. I'm sure there are Walmarts where managers listen and value their staff. It was a rarity in this store. But it's made me a better supervisor.
