My post was serious. My first job was minimum wage with no benefits so it's not a bad thing.

My first job was minimum wage and no benefits as well. As is most other people's first jobs.

No it wouldn't. There is nothing good I could learn from them except how to feel more worthless than a guy living with his parents.Maybe Bulma should've stooped to working at Wal Mart. Probably would've done Bulma some good.
The reason I'm not "successful" is I don't care to lose my soul working for the Man. There are things that matter to me, and one of them is choosing not to sell out my friends and family for more money, finding a balance (granted, it should be alot closer to the middle rather than where I've got it) between work and social life. Another is having self worth at the end of the day. If I can do that, I feel like a success even if I don't have money.
WalMart is a soulless evil company that forces devout Jews and Christians to work on their holy days (and has paved the way for other businesses to stay competitive), screws its customers (in most price checks, it's actually among the most expensive, but it plays like it's cheap), screws its suppliers over (both the truckers by giving strict deadlines on delivery and then forcing them to return for being "defective", and the dealers by forcing them to sell in bulk), and screws its employees over (they force their employers to quit working midway through the day, making their hours on paper much higher than what they actually give, while on the other hand relying on sweatshop overseas labor for their supply). Hell, they screw towns over. The other businesses all go south and the Walmart moves further away, forcing people to shop farther out, and if you won't play with them by helping them build in your town they land 50 mi away, draining the business away from the area.
A company that treats people does no good for anyone. I won't shop there, and I won't work for them. And I will tell anyone who wants to listen to do the same. McDonalds has a living wage $7.00 an hour vs the $2 plus tips of a regular restaurant, and the hours are regular. WalMart promises, but doesn't even deliver that.
A job is valued for what you can learn from it. Chef? How to cook, how to serve others. Being pimped? How to please your significant other. An evil company? All it teaches you is how to be dead inside.
Other than that, yeah, Sayo is largely right.

Working for an evil company (in your own words) is pretty good for a first-time worker in my opinion. I'll be looking at how coworkers are: bosses, managers, supervisors, teamwork (good or bad, it's still experience). I understand that you may not think that working at Walmart is good, but it's good enough as a temporary job. I won't be in the retails/business or low-level employment field forever, this is merely a stepping-stone for me.
