By the way.... It isn't just walmart employees who qualify for aid.... A few years back someone in our sheriff's department realized that the majority of officers qualified for aid based on their income. They came, en masse, to the welfare department and embarrassed the decision makers into giving them a pay increase.
...and folks wonder why the crime is so bad in our county....

Some department stores sell on commission I
think. My recollection is that Sears tool dept, appliance dept, sporting goods dept, etc. were staffed by adults that made a living in retail sales.
I don't shop much anymore but I doubt that newer stores like Target, Wal-Mart, uhhh, that's all I know, have professional sales staff like Sears did.
