Walmart Work Release?

[ewheeley]

I was at Walmart today, and saw a Washington Co, AR inmate stocking a freezer shelf. It just got me thinking... It's great that he's out working, instead of just sitting in a cell doing nothing. But is it right that Walmart gets subsidized labor from the county? They're the world's largest retailer, something about this just stinks to me.

Wow...I have to agree with you.

How did you know that he was a inmate

He was wearing an orange jumpsuit with WC Department of Corrections on it.

Maybe it was for Halloween....his custome....

That honest to God never occurred to me, but I really hope that I'm wrong and you're right.

You know, there is this holiday (of sorts) that comes once a year where people wear costumes ... it's called Halloween.

Too bad it isn't April Fools, I guess I'm stuck with this one.

But we all hate Walmart, right?
