So many people are now buying groceries at Food Loin and Wallyworld that
my GF was laid off at Lowes Foods this week...18 years experience.
The "High Enders" are taking down steps to save money.
Word has it that Lowes is going to remodel..probably into a warehouse self
serve min wage part timer employer...a step below even WM.
They HAVE TO do it, or go bust.
Part timers don't get bennies and there are HOARDS of folx looking for
ANY sort of work.
I've recently hosted two financial refugee families..people living in tents
on my land, with children.
GF [just turned 57 ] now lives in an old 1960 school bus like I used
to. Walked away from her mortgage just in time. [My "house" is 90%
factory.. I sleep in the stock room. ]
Her daughter, 3 kids and just back from Iraq hubby are living rent free
in an squalid [destroyed by deadbeat ] mobile home I have that I was going
to scrap.
GF was offered the option of going part time, but 100 miles a day to get
to work and back, for 4 hours work a day @ $12 an hour ain't worth it, not
even in a 50 MPG 1991 Chevy Metro.
BTW Middle management got the axe right after the shirker crowd leaving
the cross trained multi tasking crowd getting over worked and stressed
out...then THEY got thinned out.
Remember the "Five and Dime" stores ?..that's 5 and 10 cents.
The Dollar Tree stores [nothing over a dollar] will have to re-name to that
pretty soon...."5 and 10" ....dollars.
.....we're just getting started... "Fundamentally Transforming
America"....into "China" ?

And even more interesting is that my husband told me the other day that he
read where WM is out of sorts because so many people ARE shopping at the
dollar stores, and they figure they are loosing so much money to the
dollar stores from what use to be spent in their stores, so they are going
to open their own convenience type stores!!!

And interestingly enough, Dollar General has opened 3 NEW stores around
the outskirts of town, in the last year (not counting their original store
downtown). EVERYONE is shopping at Dollar General these days, as a protest
to the big WM store .. ':)
