WOW! The transition from upper management in retail business to the US trying to rule the world was a little quick, but here's my two cents. If you get tired of going to Walmart, or Target, or insert-mega-store-here, go somewhere else. I understand, sometimes you need battery cables, sweet tarts, a christmas tree, and a box tampons and no place else except Walmart will do, but other times, try a privately owned business. Granted, you may pay a few pennies more, because they don't have huge wholesale orders, but, you will always get better service, and if you don't like something, talk to upper management, they'll probably be right there. Yeah, both my parents have they're own businesses, so I may be a little biased, but to me, there's just something gratifying about knowing that I'm helping the little man, or, if he fucks me over, knowing that I can reach right over the counter and choke him myself
