Message Subject I went to Walmart on Sunday and only two checkout clerks, seven people called in and shelves unstocked, then found this article

I went to a Northeast Texas Walmart on Sunday around 5:00 p.m. and only two checkout clerks there and shelves unstocked; one on the express and one on a regular checkout. Very few people in the store. I knew the lady that was ringing mine up and she said seven people called in.

Then I ran across this article and the employees are saying:

"it’s piling up in aisles and in the back of stores because Wal-Mart doesn’t have enough bodies to restock the shelves"

I don't believe it's just a staffing problem. Maybe other countries aren't shipping their crappy products anymore. Something is going on.

I live in Northeast Texas and I was at my local Walmart Sunday also.
Found the same thing. Really strange! I was there late too. Normally they have the freight out and are restocking, but not that night.

I think they are always understaffed on Sunday.

Was there last year when there were only a few checkout lanes open -- the lines long. Went to the customer service counter to find out what was going on... they all deffered me to the 'Asst Manager' who was on duty that day -- said they would send him over to where I was waiting in line.

I went back over to where my wife was in line -- thinking he would never have the balls to show-up... but sure enough, this little fat guy walks up to me so I could ream his ass in front of 50 people.

His response was... he was sorry, they had underestimated the number of customers for the time of day -- and he had no one else available to put on the counters. He waddled off, and we waited in like everyone else did. Not much of a choice.
