as WallMart goes upscale will they furnish expensive uniforms?
In the experimental store, traditional aprons are things of the past because employees will wear "polo shirts and khakis" according to CNN. I wonder if the Bushco super-store will give employees an allowance for the newly required uniforms.

Walmart does not provide ANYTHING for their employees for free. I'm surprized they dont charge employees for the right to work there.

11. Andrew Young Is Now Paid Wal-Mart Cheerleader
http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/03/23/D8GHF9P0L.html

excerpt:

"Young took part in the pep rally in his new position as a paid corporate cheerleader for Wal-Mart _ a role that has perplexed some of his longtime civil rights colleagues, who have all but accused him of going over to the enemy."
