I have a Wal Mart that never lost their fabric. Several times, I have left a stack of fabric on the cutting table because no one would come to cut my choices. I have also stopped other associate as they pass by the department to cut my fabric. I also have talked to the associates and they are to cover other departments. I know the one store, they cover the paint, lighting, offices type supplies etc, that are around the fabric department. The associates from those department are to assist in the fabric, some don't know how to measure and cut fabric. I had one guy, I cut the fabric, and he put the information into the computer for my receipt. I also helped him with other customers. He watched me measure and cut the fabric, then tried it on his own and had me watch him. I really believe Wal Mart have cut the number of workers and forgot how to train them. If someone has to cover another department than they were hired for, they need to be trained. I really think this is the problem, they need more workers that know how to service the customers in the fabric department.
