"There is no doubt that I live paycheck to paycheck. I don’t spend much money but I can’t seem to save any. I have been working at WalMart for more than two years at this point.  Any raise I’ve gotten has been pretty small and there sure haven’t been enough of them. "

"Walmart likes to say how it is a company that cares about family and its associates but I don’t this is true at all.  How can they say that when the pay is so bad?  I don’t know how they expect us to have a normal life with the money they pay and with how many hours they give.  They know I have two kids at home and that I want a raise or more hours but I never get them.  Come on Walmart put your money where your mouth is."

"I have been working at Wal-Mart for six months now.  Haven’t got a raise yet and I have been working hard the whole time.  Lots of us at work always talk about how we don’t have enough money to make ends meet.  I’m lucky to have my parents who help me out when I need it but some of the people I work with aren’t so lucky.  I think they are having a hard time."
