walmart. just yesterday walmart announced employee wages. we heard about these $1,000 bon bonuses. we should note $1,000 bonuses are only for the employees who have been with the company for 20 years. on the same day, they're announcing closing some of their sam club stores. apparently some of those employees had no idea. they got in their cars, filled them up with gas and showed up to work and there was no work to go to. >> there's a little bit of controversy about walmart about this. on the one hand, it was a roller coaster ride because early on today you got the headlines out of walmart saying they were going to give out these big bonus checks, $1,000 checks. also raising their minimum wage to 11 bucks an hour for the employees already covered there. the sam club locations, 63 of them, and what they're trying to do is lump this in together. a lot of folkings are criticizing walmart because they're saying they're using the cover of the hourly wage
