- USPS (I know this isn't technically a company, but in terms of sheer laziness/incompetence of its workers not to mention a litany of other complaints I have, it is by far #1 on my list)
- Subaru
- Ruby Tuesday
- UPS
- SBC

As far as the USPS goes, there is a case study from my HR survey class at Ohio State about how the USPS is run. It is an amazinly inefficient machine. The management to employee ratio is something like 2-1, and the employees get treated like dirt. Time must be accounted for in 5 minute intervals, if you take longer than 5 mintues, employees are always looking over their shoulder.

It is a text book case for a hostile work environment. It is no wonder they so love to see us(customers)

I avoid Walmart.
I don't like corporate food.
I love old, family-owned bars like Zip's (Mount Washington section of Cincinnati) and Arnold's.
I loath bars where you can't hear yourself think, let alone talk to anybody.
