Sam Walton reaches out from the grave to help unionize wal-mart workers
Sam Walton encourages Wal-Mart workers to join the Union


/Hawaii News Articles/ - March 15, 2005 - Waipahu, Hawaii- The late Retail Supermogul, Sam Walton has been dead for 13 years, but, that isn't

stopping him from making a comeback as a union organizer. A new website has Sam Walton

reminding all those overworked and badly treated associates to "regain their self-respect" and don't

take what's being dished out to them by the Walton family and CEO, Lee Scott.


WalMartSux.com (SUX: an acronym for Supplemental Union eXchange) created by ex-sales associate,

Louie Maytorena, puts out a call for action to all employees to STOP listening to the billionaire heirs

and focus instead on Sam's words of practicing "true respect for the individual".

Louie tells us that "Too many associates are their worst enemy. Constantly listening to their own

fears." I say, "Stop cowering as a result of your happy-face-everything-is-OK-brain-washing and, with

Sam's help, make history by being the first store in the United States of America to become

unionized."


It didn't take very long after Sam's earthly departure that the remaining family members started

taking the Wal*Mart Store empire down a very dark path. "They have taken Sam's good intentions

and completely corupt everything he stood for and admired, particularly the integrity and hard work of

his beloved associates and replaced by the lure of the Mighty Dollar".


"Everyday going to work, seemed like dreamland. Nothing ever made any sense." Louie adds,

"I myself was fired from Wal*Mart for wanting to use the restroom on my lunchbreak." Louie explains

with a curious expression on his face. "Maybe it had something to do with my open worker's comp

case due to my permanent injury to both my back and knee sustained by pushing pallet loads in

excess of 2300 lbs. for many years in the Food department despite my protest and suggestion in

obtaining a powered pallet-jack to push these heavy loads". Wal*Mart's loud response,

"Absolutely...NOT!, these jacks cause injury and are a liability"! Duh...Ya Think? So they made me a

"greeter" instead. A position created, in my opinion, as a one-way ticket out the door.


Even though Louie is no longer employed by the retail giant, this doesn't stop him from helping those

still on the inside. "Do it for Sam..." the website proclaims, "...and call the UCFW Ohana today.

Louie believes that Mr. Walton would be proud to lead a new Wal*Mart cheer for the next century.

One that would begin with, "Give me an R-E-S-P-E-C-T - WHAT DOES IT SPELL?".
