And, it shows. Walmart's problems (and it ain't makin' money) begin with management at several levels including at the top and then trickles done to the pions. So, the customer service we receive or don't receive locally is a direct reflection of how the Walmart corporate entity now views its customers -- they no longer feel that its the customers that have built them up to where they are today and deserve some degree of respect. We are only herds of dollar signs to them now. Sure Sam was driven to be successful, but he went about it the right way and they've definitely lost sight of that fact. Shades of the fictional "OCP" corporate mentality from the old Robocop movies comes to mind. That may be a bit harsh, but if left unattended, who knows what the future might hold.
