Wal-Mart Forces Employees to Search for Possible Bombs

Yes, really.

Wal-Mart turns its employees into a bomb squad. No training required.

ST-JEAN-SUR-RICHELIEU, QUE. — Managers at a local Wal-Mart forced employees to search the store after it received a bomb threat, Radio-Canada reported Monday.

Some 40 nervous employees searched the store for an hour last Thursday, said Mailie Fournier, a former employee of the store. They were accompanied by six police officers.

Several employees, whose jobs don't include security, found the experience traumatic, said Mr. Fournier.

How do you spell 'lawsuit'?

Perhaps it's just a little message on the company's part to all Wal-Mart employees across Canada who are trying to unionize.
