Walmart and the Economy

Truck traffic is down. The Walmart distribution center in Shelbyville, TN had only two trucks waiting to get unloaded when my husband arrived last night, as opposed to about eight last year. There was only one employee working in the receiving check-in area, and during lunch time no one was in there. That has never happened before. There were always two employees working, and the lunch hour was covered.

These are some of the signs the economy is in very poor shape. When Walmart is slashing work hours and product, it's bad.
