Just because one Wal-Mart fired an employee because an employee wants a sign language interpreter, it doesn't mean every Wal-Mart does it. I love my Wal-Mart near my home, they're friendliest people always go their way out helping you find what you're looking for.

You're crazy.

I don't do with something for Wal-mart. It's time to boycott Wal-mart
for employment.

Another story:

When I have a jar full of coins, I was looking for a coin machine so I can change them into bills so I went to Wal Mart. I asked a cashier if there was a coin machine, and then other customer laughed at me and told me "You count it!", and then the worker laughed at me too, and wrote "Go to Albertson!" then smashing the paper. I was so pissed so I stomping on the table on the cashier, and told them that I need a paper and pen. Then that worker gave me and I wrote "I was asking for a machine, I didn't ask her to count it for me, DUHHHH!" and I left.

It's called aggressive against on consumers then you need make lawsuit to sue on Wal-Mart.

I wish I did that! Goddamn Walmart.

Another story.

When I went enter in the store with my CI on, one worker who are standing front of the store stare at me and tried to yell at me. I was like what? She pointed to my CI, and I was voicing "Oh none of your business".

Later while I was walking around the Wal Mart, and leader manager came to me, and write on the paper "You can't be rude to any of my workers". I was like what the fuck?! I have right to tell anyone to MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS.

Lousy managers, lousy workers, lousy prices, lousy construction, lousy qualities, etc etc etc etc....

Wal Mart is jsut FULL of SHITTTTT.

I am pretty sure that she was interested to know about your CI or your hearing. Well, I assume that it wasn't the right mood for you to talk about. You need consider to apologize to her that you were not right mood at that day when you go back there - someday.

What makes "Oh none of your business" a rude? I am just defending my own business that's all. I don't think I need to tell them sorry, they have been discriminating against me about my deafness everytime I went there. They absolute don't deserve it.

I don't think it will really be a problem with just that Walmart. I'm sure that it's a problem with a lot of the businesses in the area.

The businesses around here are very deaf-friendly... because it's a deaf community.

What's the deaf community like in your area?

Ur lucky that you are in New York...

Here, in Vancouver, Washington...

Good thing about deaf:

*The Deaf community in the church are GROWING FAST.
*Some of Deafies refuse to try the drugs because of the Deaf AA and MA meetings existing here.
*The Deafies are fighting against DVR (Develop Vocaliation Rehab) it's like helping disablities people to get a job.
*Raising of Deafies get good education through mainstream instead of the deaf school.
*More and more hearing people recognized the Deafies.

Deafies's issue:

*Washington School for the Deaf are lossing every year because the lack of staff.
*Alot of drugs addictors from the east like New York or New Jersey come to here Vancouver and cause problems with the Deafies in Vancouver WA.
*Small Deaf Community.
*1 in every 3 Deafies experience abuse as children by parents.
*Deafies got involved with the drugs/alcohol often.

It's just Vancouver WA Deafies. Deafies who are from other place usually called us the "drama group", or "non common sense deafies", and many things bad about us.

We, Washington Deafies, NEED HELP!

Am I? I don't think so, I think it's crazy to boycott Wal-Mart because of one bad Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart is very popular, American favorite store beside Kmart.

I love Wal-Mart.

I don't want to argue with you. Are you really sure that she insulted you because she asked you a question about your CI?

What are things that they are discriminating you every time you visited there? I want to know about it.

dreama · 05-11-2007, 03:38 PM

I hate Walmart/ASDA(name they go under here in the UK) because of their terrible human rights records. They also don't bother to sell organic fruit or veg so all their fruit and veg is sprayed with pestacides which is really bad for you. I always go for Organic or non GM where I can.

It doesn't surprise me at all that they also discriminate against the deaf.

Wal-Mart (Supercenter) in USA does sell organic foods.

For me, I dislike organic food due different of taste.

I already shared other two posts that discriminates against my deafness, and I didn't say that that worker was insulting me, I was saying that it was not her business, and then boss warning on me, that's so wrong.

Well, I hate Walmart, too. Of course, she would have shut her mouth if you do not feel like to talk about. If I were you, I will try to talk about it a little and to be patience. It was embarrassed because it makes her or other people that all deaf people are rude, but it is not. You know what I mean. It would be much worse if she says someone that you are dumb and mute. I will definitely pissed off and insult her. Isn't that sound right to you?

Why is it correct to yell at a deaf person across the room? It's not! I personally think it's rude pointing and yelling at a handicapped innocent person. Why does this gentlemen owe this cashier an explanation of his CI? He doesn't but he can share if he wants to. The manager took sides and that's wrong too. She got one sided story from her coworker, naturally. I think it's disrespect to holler at someone across the room. Was this man supposed to holler back at her explaining "I have a cochlear implant because ...... " Or maybe he needed to walk up to her to explain? This is not social standards.

That dumby (gosh--hate to say that) non-deaf customer is a biga**-time mean...

That is just big-time insane to the max...

Man, [uh...] I feel sorry for you. I will pray for you for the discrimination that'd done to you. *sigh*

I won't trust Wal-Mart so I won't go there...

Non-deaf customers are not suppose to treat deaf people as "dumb" and unfairly. That's just rude and I feel that the customers should owe you an apology, but probably this will happen again and again--probably for the lifetime.

webexplorer · 05-11-2007, 08:11 PM

Then, this woman at Walmart must be retard. It was a good thing that she does not jump on you.

Yeah I understand what you mean, but still I am not in mood to talk with her, she's just not giving me any nice approach. She yelled at me and then pointing to my CI, it makes me feel weird.

Yeah I wish nobody would look down against deafies. But I have to suffer with Wal Mart, their price is so cheap, and they are treating me shit. That's why I kept calling Wal Mart is FULL OF SHIT. Oh wellie

sillycat · 05-13-2007, 01:40 PM

If Wal Mart is full of shit then call it Wal Fart!!

When I was poor and broke and looking for work, I refused to apply for job at Wal Mart becus of its poor record of treatment of their workers. I read info. on WalMartSucks.com which the store later sued and lost. But it was eventually removed from the internet. You still can check the info. about wal mart on internet by googling "wal mart sucks".

purplecatty · 05-15-2007, 03:59 AM

Sheesh Man!

That's something I don't like about Walmart playing game on deaf workers. Not only Deaf, They do discriminate against women too. Walmart have bad rap on discrimination in the past. IMHO, Managment DO play game on any worker to hush them up or be fired. Sometime They can do stupid things. IT takes many woman to protest to make public notice against Walmart. I've seen bathroom stall (men's bathroom) scrawled with graffiti which was written by woman who cleaned the bathroom. She was very angry with managment for paying lower salary while men get more for same job and also sex harrassment was so bad that she couldn't speak out due to her manager's threat.

So How many deafie working at Walmart. I bet just .01% across the nation. If there are 25% of deafie in nation working there and protest. Court will do something with Walmart. It would be VERY nice if 2 or 3 millions of deafie across the nation regardless if they are working or not (not walmart but any jobs) stand up and protest against discrimination. Public will take notice and they'll clean up their act.

Remmy the Gally protest. That's the biggest thing. We should do more for freedom of Voice!

I agree with CCfan. Court are wrong to support Walmart. Our deaf voice are very small. We need make our voice bigger. This make Walmart look bad and improve their service. Perhap fire any low life Managers.

I do go to Walmart but I don't like them building too many SuperStore less than 5 miles radius in my area!! I have Super WM 2 miles away and other about 4 miles away (on other city conjuction to my city). Now I heard they're planning to build another Super WM just about 1/2 miles from my home. This made my blood broils!! They are just polluting neighbors w/ too many WM!! (I wish I can bulldoze their building as soon as they finished them LOL). Mayor in my city is powerless to stop it. I wish State can do something to restrict business from building many "copies" of big stores less than 10 miles radius!!
