If I applied for a job at Walmart and provided a professional reference on my job application is there a chance that Walmart would do anything more then call them?...
I don't understand it all, but i think they should just be able to do something like pour cement onto the hole and let it close up, what is so difficult about it?
Why can't they just ask us if we'll take a pay cut or pass up a raise for a year. I'd rather do that than be asked to double my workload and be harassed for not keeping up. It is the ...

Social enterprise is the act of trying to bring about social change by trading. They can be businesses or they can be charities and there's a spectrum of types of organisation.
Fairtrade products are a really good example of this kind of work. The money they make is secondary to the benefit they wish to see. The farmers they buy from will make a reasonable profit but the fairtrade company itself may only seek to recover its costs. It's main purpose is to ensure that its suppliers earn enough to live on but they don't exist purely to ensure shareholders see a return
You also can get social enterprises that recycle all sorts of products. The good they are trying to achieve is in the sustainable use of resources. The profit they make is ploughed back into the business or into campaigns to raise awareness of recycling and educate the public. The profit is a means of doing other stuff rather than the purpose of the business
Bus services are generally not social enterprises. A bus company will only run a service if it makes a profit. If it can't make a profit it will stop the service or ask for additional subsidy from a public body that will ensure it generates enough of a profit to be worthwhile. A bus company will generally be there just to earn a profit with which to deliver shareholder value.
some bus operators are social enterprises though - these are called community transport operators and will tend to operate vehicle hire rather than run a designated route. Some community transport operators are starting to take on routes that the major operators won't touch and so it starts to become a grey area.
A good example of most of the above is Bolton Community Transport - they provide vehicles for hire to community groups, use vehicles to pick up unwanted furniture, recycle it and run a furniture showroom - the profits from that are used to bring down the costs of vehicle hire.
