A Walmart worker broadcast her resignation over the stores loudspeakers and was very clear about how she felt about the job she was leaving behind.

“Attention Walmart shoppers and associates, my name is Beth from electronics. I’ve been working at Walmart for almost five years and I can say that everyone here is overworked and underpaid. The attendance policy is bullsit. We’re treated from management and customers poorly every day. Whenever we have a problem with it, we’re told that we’re replaceable. I’m tired of the constant gaslighting. This company treats their elderly associates like shit. To Jarred, our store manager, you’re a pervert.
