The Wal-Mart Cheer
What is the origin of the Wal-Mart cheer? Our founder, Sam
Walton was visiting a tennis ball factory in Korea, where
the workers did a company cheer and calisthenics together
every morning. He liked the idea and couldn't wait to get
back home to try it with his associates. He said, "My feeling
is that just because we work so hard, we don't have to go
around with long faces all the time - while we're doing all
of this work, we like to have a good time. It's sort of a
'whistle while you work' philosophy, and we not only have
a heck of a good time with it, we work better because of it."
