Ok, I may be stepping on a land mine here but I'm gonna say my peace.

I am a Walmart employee, have been for 3 years as of the 19th. Its my main source of income. My store, even here in BF Nowhere, TN is very diverse. I know of at least 3 gay men in my store, two of which are open domestic partners, and there may be more that I don't know about. My former dept. manager who trained me (she got a promotion to a salary job) was bisexual and very open about it.

While I know some of our employees (including a friend of mine) do not agree with their life style, they are very respectful and professional in our workplace. I haven't heard of any harsh words, nasty rumours, or malicious actions done to these people. I'm glad to see this happening before my eyes.

On a side note that some of you may not know about. Last week Walmart presented a check of $750,000 to the Jason Foundation, an organization that supports information/training and treatment options to prevent Youth Suicide. Suicide is the 3rd leading cause of preventable death in people 15-24 and the second leading cause of death for college aged youths.
