That would be quiet a show of solidarity and months of planning never mind having to have a spokesperson to tell the company what the associates wanted. One day would not do it, it would have to be at least a week, with the public backing so someone would not go in and take your $11 per hour job. Oh wait, then we all become organized labor which at H/O is referred to as "Union", then we are all fired. Face it; the DC's make more money than the stores, H/O does not care that associates make $11 per hour and think that a 2%, that is twenty two cents per hour, raise is an adequate cost of living raise, there is NO reason to be out of work, so you had a baby - to bad - you were not here long enough to approve your LOA - you were two days short - should have kept that little baby in for two more days - sorry - terminated attendance.
They do not care that a great deal of associates are getting government assistance.
Bring back the merit raises, bring back the pride in working for Mr. Sam's company. You want this company to be great again - start treating your associates with respect like Mr. Sam did. H/O can't fill one of Mr. Sam's shoes much less two.
But, I tell you, let that stock fall to less than $50 per share - now that will get some attention.
