Wal-Mart Conflict Might Spread to Black Friday

Around the United States, Wal-Mart stores are opening at 8 P.M. on Thanksgiving
night.

It’s this exact reason that the Wal-Mart workers are threatening to strike during the
holiday weekend.

After Wal-Mart announced its holiday hours for the Thanksgiving season, an employee
decided to do something about it.

Mary Tifft has worked for Wal-Mart for 24 years and started an online petition in response
to her employer’s holiday hours.

More than 30,000 Wal-Mart workers have signed the petition.
These workers plan to strike more than 1,000 of the business’s location.

Wal-Mart has since filed a complaint with a federal agency in regards to the strike.
