Daniel Sherman, 49, of Cleveland, is an "instock supervisor" at the Steelyard Wal-Mart.As such, he's in charge of about 12 people on the dock.
"I own the back room," he said."It's probably one of the tougher jobs in the store."
He enjoys the job, he said, citing a 401(k) and the employee discount as benefits.

Sherman said he used to work at Ford's Lorain Assembly Plant but lost that job when it closed.After that, he said, he enrolled at Cleveland State University and spent four years earning a law degree.
But after failing to pass the bar exam, he found himself not only out of the legal field, but out of work, period.Then he heard about the new store.Now he's in a supervisory role from which he said he could see himself retiring.
"After four years of law school, you, too, can work at Wal-Mart," Sherman said with a laugh.
