    There's a rumor going around that they got rid of Greg Smith a few days ago. Anyone have any more information about this or if it's even true?

    Why would you want to see a man become unemployed?

    He was making a lot of questionable decisions in a lot of peoples minds! That’s probably why...

    I hope you're joking. Besides, I'm sure with his salary and previous work history, he'll be just fine.

    Everything he said his "keys to winning retail" plan would accomplish has in fact done exactly the opposite. Walmart Stockholders frown on folks costing them money.

    Well; it used to be that some of these decisions weren’t just made to benefit the stockholders; now; everything is decided by what is the anticipated reaction from the stock market.. lows to highs etc.. the decisions seem to be made for short term gain anticipation and not anything but that: you and I as drivers out here could have foreseen the negative impacts that a lot of these decisions would have made if we as drivers were asked for input into it. And; I don’t think anybody did that... and lookey: long term those decisions seem to be on the way to be negative impacts in a lot of areas..... I’m not a private fleet driver so I really don’t know much about the why and ifs of his decisions... but; morale seems really low right now and trust is in the toilet... and that impacts in so many ways and it’s hard and a long road to getting that back........just saying....

    Anyone know if i ask for footage i manually input by pressing the camera record button while driving if they will release it to me? I had a gsf truck with mcds trailer swerve full truck into my lane and move back over just as fast. Guess using that phone and having that conversation is worth almost potentially killing someone.
