Upset Walmart workers are planning strikes and protests over poor pay and mistreatment at the world's largest retailer, threatening the coming Black Friday peak shopping day.
Walmart store and warehouse workers began walking off the job Wednesday, in California and Washington state, to protest the company's efforts to silence workers seeking better pay and benefits, a workers group said.
Protests will hit 1,000 Walmart stores leading up to and on Black Friday, November 23, the Organization United for Respect at Walmart (OUR Walmart) said in a statement Thursday.
