Photographer and eye doctor Jason Whitman countered the #WalmartStrikers by describing his past experience at Wal-Mart, and how he viewed his job as a stepping stone, not a career.

Whitman had a brief conversation with another like-minded Twitter user:

.@ToddKGulag Amen. I stocked shelves to pay for my first truck and ski gear as well as undergrad. Hit grad school debt free.
