I doubt they are really asking, but in case they do, and in case they lurk here, here are a few reasons (my opinions)!!!
I shop at Walmart a lot. In fact, I went today. I'm glad they exist. I shop at Walmart Number Five, for goodness sakes. But they have a LOT of fixable problems. IMHO:
1) Parking. Who designs the parking at these places? Try making a square store with parking all around, 360 degrees! Make an entrance at all four 'walls'.
2) TURN DOWN THE HEAT. I have never been in a Walmart that wasn't 200 degrees. I sweat like a stinky pig when I shop there. Winter is worst.
3) TURN OFF THE TV'S AND THE PIPED IN NOISE! I get into Walmart and I can't think for the noise. Hard to ignore all the TV's and the intercom system. Very annoying.
4) Put the milk in the front. Really. I GET IT why you do that, but geez. Really!!! You don't need us to 'shop' that badly. Just put the milk up front with the bread.
5) Hire the same number of cashiers that you have spots. Remove most of those spots. They are NEVER ALL manned, and you know it.
6) And lastly FIX THE DADGUM CARTS. They are broken mostly because you use them all every night to unload the big trucks, and put heavy stuff in them, and mistreat them. Figure out that messes them up and STOP doing it. Instead of a greeter (thankfully, a job being phased out), hire a guy to fix the carts, nonstop. THIS IS IMPORTANT. Target's carts roll well. Be advised.
You're welcome.
