    Not much to tell. I come in, do my job, cash my (average) $2800 biweekly check and enjoy one and a half to two and a half days at home.

    Yes sir it is. But that story doesn't bother you in the slightest? This guy has worked there 10 years when he could have sat home and collected SSI.

    And I can work 25+ years and be fine. But the day may possibly come that I Can't pass a dot physical. Nobody is going to pay or approve disability for me.

    Feel good bash large corporation story designed to tug at heartstrings.

    There is a difference from having CP when hired and them changing the rules and your health declining and losing your card. No matter if it's a mom and pop shop or a large Corp. Wrong is wrong....
    And the guy in the story is trying to be productive and NOT collect disability...

    Sounds to me like the current Walmart drivers comments here along with the thousands of other Walmart drivers dont know what they are talking about?

    With all the money they make you would think they could afford to me more aware of their public image. Anyway. he's probably already got a lawyer ready to launch contsructive dismissal suit so he'll likely get severance unless Walmart drags it out until his death.
