    That’s atleast better than picking up a product and leaving it somewhere else because you decided that you didnt need it anymore.

          I only do that with raw chicken, and I leave it on top of fresh vegetables so people can see it.

        Gotta love when you find a steak that’s already pre room temperature. Saves you the trouble when you get it home!

          way too many, yes.

          especially great if they put something refrigerated on an unrefrigerated shelf. workers will now have to throw it away because they can’t say how long it was out of the fridge

      What if, in this case, the ‘somewhere else’ is in the bin? Or just randomly chucked through the ceiling tiles?

      A sort of fruit based ‘paint ball’ would surely stop them from importing US produce.

        That’s not fair to the workers in the store. It’s not management that’s cleaning up.

          Sorry, I was joking. I don’t actually think fruit paint ball is safe or productive.

          At least it is not a task the bosses can automate. Some job security there.
