Janet and Barry. I had a friend who worked as a wearhouseman for ASDA, admittedly a few years back now. The wages were crap. Do not know what working conditions were like, but he left and is now self-employed and better off for it. What a facinating name you have Janet. Sort of name I'd love to think I could invent if I were a novalist.

Wallmart pay everyone as little as they can - employers and suppliers - in order to keep their prices lower than everyone else. As they bought out Asda, I assumed that they were not going to change their principals for the British market.

I used to do my online shopping with them and then they stopped delivering to my area, otherwise I'd still be with them today because I have found the quality of their goods to be high.
