Have you seen the news Aaron??? It said for SOME part time, not all part time employees. Under 3 percent of their employees are affected. Oh, and I guess you missed the news for the 100s of other retailers who did the same thing. Do you shop at Trader Joe's??? Or how about HOme Depot?? Lowes?? Target??? Whole Health Foods?? Any national food chain??

62 percent of all large retailers don't even offer any health insurance of any kind to part-time employees... Guarantee you with LBS shops, it's near 100 percent that don't offer it to part time employees.

And to the other poster, there's no assumption, you are living in China to abuse Chinese labor to line your pocket. Don't claim otherwise. The fact you own a computer/smartphone is something 99.9% chinese would have to work a year just to buy. It really insults us all. Be honest about it.
