Wal Mart steps over a dollar to pick up a dime

The plants just befuddle me. Why would they choose to let something die
and
return it for credit rather than mark it down and let it find a home. I
hate
to see dying plants.

========================
They die because nobody CARES! You have overworked employees making the
minimum wage and working lousy shifts. Most don't know a geranium from a
palm tree. Do you think they want to stand out there in the hot sun with a
hose? Even if they had the TIME to do it? They're just putting in time for
their measly pay check and the store managers don't care either. Look at
the horrible conditions in their old pet depts. No one cared that there
were tanks of DEAD stinking fish, starving hamsters and birds going belly up
for lack of water. Myself and a few friends used to call a main/district
office in Nashville and complain constantly, weekly - sometimes almost
daily. They finally got rid of the live pets and fish to our great joy.
These stores are all to CHEAP to hire a person to do nothing but CARE for
and water the plants and living things they carry. I doubt they'd go
bankrupt if they hired some oldster part time to come in daily and at least
make sure everything was watered.
