We have the "no staff at the fabrics" problem at our closest Wally Mart. I'm glad they kept it but there is never anyone there to cut fabric, no matter the time. I have waited over 20 minutes, rattled the bell, asked someone from another department to help me or send someone. I have chased employees down.
It's awful really. The office supply department has been in shambles for months- empty shelves. Messy shelves. No one seems to care. I get to the checkout and some items aren't tagged so I have to wait for a price check. I don't think it's the employees fault as they have to cover so many areas. So many of them seem to be in a BAD mood and will openly tell you there have been layoffs and they are running to get things done.
Wally Mart is what's closest to me but I hate going there. It used to be so different.
