Part of the story:

"All this because a woman in Frank’s line that day wanted to buy a gallon of the sweet tea. She told Frank a store in a neighboring town had a sale price that Wal-Mart was supposed to match.

She didn’t have the ad, as required, but she didn’t need it with Frank. He’d always made it a point to keep up with prices at other stores, so he let her have it at the sale price.

That got Frank called in and fired after nearly 20 years.

“The bosses said I made up an imaginary price,” he said Thursday.

Frank went to Willow Springs and got an issue of a local paper that showed he was right about the price of tea."

I use the woman's restroom, I feel more "comfortable."

FYI, the 20 days short of 20 years is a pretty big deal. If you work 20 years at Walmart, you get to retire with full health benefits as a retirement benefit. So it's a lot more than just 50 cents they saved by dropping him just short of 20 years.

Of course, for those of you who have said things like "I don't want to hug a reerun to get my change" I'm sure Wal-Mart's business practices over the years don't make you never no mind. Hell, they've probably killed just about every other small business in West Plains, so the locals may have no other choice.
Yeah, we're the bad guys for not agreeing to a hostage hug from a Wal-mart employee.

Do the workers get health benefits while they're working? Or is that benefit just for people higher up the ladder? It seems surprising to me that a cashier would get that kind of benefit given what I hear about Walmart.

West Plains could hold their MENSA meetings in a closet.

Walmart does not give those benefits after 20 years of service.

If he wouldn't stop requesting hugs from customers and wouldn't stop willfully violating the price matching policy even after having been warned about both of those things, he should have been fired.

They used to, granted it's been 20 years since I worked at Walmart.

My family is from there, Walmart is literally a lot of peoples highlight in the day. I remember going as a child and being so bored out of my mind. But the girl that lived next to my great aunt that worked at the diner turned into a porn star. So there is that. Well a one off porn star, who I just happened to see in Hustler in the 90s.
