I have been told by a district supervisor for Walmart that each store is scheduled for remodel every 7 years. The major focus of this will be to eliminate any department that requires a hands human employee. That means the elimination of the fabric, ribbons, trims and in almost all of the stores, the yarn department. They don't care one bit about the customer, just the bottom line. Is it any wonder that the Walton's are always on the "world's richest" list?
