"It's scary out there. No one has any commitment to fair play, honesty or character. You are what you repeatedly do, therefore Excellence is not an act but a Habit Aristotle.

Commandeering and controlling the market is Capitalism."

So required to give half a day (I was salaried)I went in to document what I had done and verify that was all the merchandise that I had. I got a phone call telling to come in or else. I also had an employees take my drivers license credit card from my purse and proceed charge items from our store while in route to another Wal-Mart. They attempted to charge at another Wal-Mart at 2:48am but the card had been cancelled. I was told by Wal-Mart security----They didn't steal from Wal-Mart so they were not going to do any thing even though a police report had been filed."
