Today I was speaking with a manager at Wal- Mart. I noticed that they were closing at 4pm instead of 8pm these days.
He told me he can't find enough employees to install tires and do oil changes. He also said that there is a Wal-Mart in Edmonton which only has one employee in the automobile department.
They are open Monday to Friday 8-4pm closed at lunchtime. Unbelieveable !!

I understand that this category or workers does feature on the NOC website as a skill level trade.
