[QUOTE="cdschoonie, post: 3593655, member: 43126"] I will state the obvious here, what everyone knows already. The day Sam Walton died, Walmart began a slow, but steady decline in not only their products, but more so their customer service. I have, and will continue to say, Sam would roll over in his grave if he saw the chain business he worked so hard building. It’s a good thing for his heirs that he had them so well established, so ingrained into the public as a goto, household name for anything we needed, before he passed away. Sure, the heirs did give Walmart a resurgence by adding a grocery section to their arsenal, but they were always first and foremost, a department store, to get everything from household items, outdoor, electronics, sporting goods, and all things in between. It’s sad that someone hasn’t come in and driven them out of business, or at least someone in the powers-that-be inside Walmart itself hasn’t come in and cleaned house. I keep holding out hopes that one of these things happen, but sadly I don’t see anything ever changing. With the work ethics and respect for your fellow man of the country, with millennials and younger, it’s only going to get worse. Before hurting feelings, I’m not including all people from 45 down! There are some with whom their upbringing took, I can happily say, my kids work every bit as hard as we did, have ambitions, as well as being highly praised by their employers, etc., however as to their respect level I am convinced the latter, is an across-the-board, cultural thing that is learned and lived in the school systems. Social Media is the biggest problem, also reality TV, as well as what is on the news daily, protesting/rioting, especially pro athlete’s actions with the Anthem kneeling in particular, even the way younger actors carry themselves on and off screen, all these things and much more have been a big reason for the decline in society for sure.
