At my old company the C-suite was the third generation; to their credit, they were very leery of debt and determined to grow the company: slowly, but they were good stewards of the founder's legacy. I stay in loose touch with them.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04780425923108876647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-10693681108822962352019-09-05T09:23:09.077-04:002019-09-05T09:23:09.077-04:00What's happening to Walmart's family is fa...What's happening to Walmart's family is fairly typical of multi-generational families with huge operations.<br /><br />The four generation behavior models are as follows:<br /><br />Thunder<br />Wonder<br />Blunder<br />Plunder<br /><br />And it happens every time.Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471264704254326723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-13466131671708487412019-09-05T07:53:59.119-04:002019-09-05T07:53:59.119-04:00Murphy beat me to it.

I sure will.<br />Be a real shame if something that simple caught on nationwide."<br /><br />A comment:<br /><br />While there might be a lot of joy and personal contentment in performing such an act, all you will accomplish is 1)getting the restrooms locked to public use, and 2)causing some poor, minimum-wage (this is Walmart, after all,) shlub the unfortunate task of having to clean up after you. I guarantee that the melonheads who made this decision to restrict weapon and ammunition sales will never have to clean it up, and most likely will never even know that your dirty deed had been done.Murphy(AZ)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08096111370780976408noreply@blogger.com
