And I have been shopping in grocery stores ever since and have a critical eye. So yesterday my trip to Smith's (Kroger's) was an absolute nightmare. I only had a few things on my list...and found even fewer. The "everything" bagels were sold out and what was left were plain, blueberry and chili cheese. Yuk,yuk,yuk. There was no regular plain black tea bags, they were out of fig cookies and most other varieties, there were no decent greens (I can never find escarole anymore) in the produce department, and I was having sticker shock in every isle. It was like they were pricing things by picking random numbers. Picked up a few other necessities...When I went to get our standby frozen yogurt (half the calories of ice cream so you can eat twice as much) the entire ice cream section had been wiped out due to a freezer malfunction, there was melted ice cream and mostly empty shelves. There were two check-outs open with lines of people waiting and I went to self check-out where everyone was having issues and the clerk was frantically trying to fix their problems and of course my check-out machine also froze just before I was done and I had to wait my turn to get the over-ride from the clerk.
Maybe if they paid decent wages they could keep their employees.
Not to mention that I was already in a bad mood. But what else is new? (Charlie Brown said to Lucy (me) "You were born crabby, you're crabby now, and you will be crabby for the rest of your life.")
And the internet has been down for two days. This has been happening too often,
And for no good reason I have not been able to see or post comments on blogs with my iPhone for the past week or so.
