Wal-Mart’s policies and business practices have always been under the scanner. They haven’t found many supporters in labor unions, religious groups, environmental organizations etc. Areas of concern include the corporation's extensive foreign product sourcing, treatment of employees and product suppliers, environmental practices, the use of public subsidies, the impact of stores on the local economies of towns in which they operate, and the company's security policies.
In 2005, labor unions created several organizations to confront these issues, including Wake Up Wal-Mart (United Food and Commercial Workers) and Wal-Mart Watch (Service Employees International Union). Now there is a website called “watching Wal-Mart watch” to well, watch Wal-Mart watch. This blog is my attempt to watch ‘watch Wal-Mart watch’. So I might not actually end up watching ‘watching Wal-Mart watch’ but it was funny as hell typing watch watch Wal-Mart watch. MS Word almost blew up on me. I love irritating MS word. Sigh. Now we sit back and – you guessed it – watch.
