Here, here!

Didnt Wal-Mart give you trouble a few months ago with your dog?????? If I remember correctly didnt they want to see some kind paper stating your MS?
hugs

Yes, sounds like you might have a suit against Walmart. Sounds like you were and felt harassed

Call your state bar assoc and ask for a referral to a good Plaintiff's atty.

About your nosey neighbor - practice the non-answer and a sniff.

Why do you have a cane? "oh, I need a cane" or "oh, it helps me walk". Keep this up and they'll get the point.

You don't have to answer any question you don't want to.

i like houseofboo's idea! i'm gonna join a nudist colony! haha
or at least start one with just me in my apt.
And i like lotte's idea too...
Yeah wal mart is being so weird...the thing is that a security guard came up to me and asked...there was a whole bunch of people in line at a register and they were all looking at me and giggling when i was stumbling...at first i didn't care but then i heard this guy say "look she's drunk off her ass"
whoaaaaa.....damn people..,the guard apologized to me after i told him he said a customer told him...
And plus going against wal mart would be like david and goliath
except goliath would have a whole bunch of lawyers and money and david wouldn't even have a sling-shot at winning.

I think you are wrong JR, they will settle with you rather than have that come to the media attention. Get them involved too. Hell do it for the sake of all of us. Plus you will be able to afford the SF1019. I know most of you think there is a handful of who are nuts, but we ain't and don't want to see you you young'ins go through the same lies we were subject to.

Don’t you dare say you don’t deserve to receive benefits from the military. Most don’t step up to serve at all. What you don’t deserve is to have misinformed idiots judge you. Dress the way you want and set your dog loose on those haters. =)

All I can think is that since you look so good, people must think that there is nothing wrong with you, that you must be just a young hottie who had too much too drink. Not sticking up for them by any means. Sickness isn't always evident. Screw these idiots!

I am waiting to get diagnosed. I have a lot of vertigo etc. One mri showed and the other one didn't---is that strange. My neck is so painful that i could pull my hair out. Could you tell me you symptoms and how they diagnosed you?

Anybody that thinks Wal-Mart is going to hand over a boatload of money to avoid bad publicity doesn't know of their history, including their latest debacle, which some of you I'm sure have heard of:

Woman who works for Wal-Mart gets hit by truck in Wal-Mart parking lot and becomes mentally handicapped to some degree (has no short term memory). Very soon after, her son dies in Iraq. Wal-Mart pays for her medical bills, as required, about half a million dollars. She then wins settlement with trucking company, about half a million dollars. As she has won the settlement, Wal-Mart had the right to demand their money back, and then did so. Leaving this woman and her family bankrupt and unable to pay her medical bills. Both CNN and MSNBC did lengthy reports on the woman and her story, just last month. The last I checked, Wal-Mart was sticking to their guns, and demanding the woman pay them their money back.

I may be getting some of the facts slightly wrong. Feel free to correct me, but the bottom line is this:

Americans like cheap crap. It doesn't matter where it comes from, it doesn't matter who suffers in order to get it made cheaply. As long as Americans continue to get their cheap goods at Wal-Mart, they don't have to do anything for good publicity, or to avoid bad publicity, because no matter what happens today, Americans will run to Wal-Mart tomorrow, convinced that the only way they can meet their budgetary needs is to shop there.

And that, folks, is my Wal-Mart rant for May 9th, 2008. Enjoy your shopping and be well!

Joey,
Way to go. I can't tell you how many times I endured rude remarks. I even was told by a supervisor of a major beauty supply that I had worked for a period of ten yrs that I was an embarrassment. I could not wear much makeup or fake nails due to reactions andI limped and balance was so bad some thought I was drunk. I finally confided in my employees and they were wonderful. The supervisor knew from before because I worked with her in another state and she asked me to transfer to help her out. Then started to traet me horrible as though I was a something beneath her.
