Cuomo, who runs neck and neck with Schumer, as the all time scumbag hypocritical egomaniac politicians elected in N.Y., could lead the brain dead lackeys in this state off a cliff and they'd thank him.

We now have to pay a nickle a paper bag that decades ago used to be free. Well, actually not free but built into the cost. They want us to convert to reusable bags that we bring back to the grocery store time after time. How many times can you purchase that pack of chicken thighs before that bag gets permanently contaminated? Dead fall in our forests used to be used to produce pulp that was used to make paper bags. Can anyone think of the consequences of not clearing that dead fall? While we're at it why not open our borders and let everyone but the most serious criminals out of jail with no bail? 1

Do you have to ask for plastic bags at the meat counter? The Wegmans I frequent has an attended counter for better cuts of meat and seafood but the chicken is in the coolers along the back of the store that are all self serve. I bring up chicken because that's the worst offender of them all. There's no question in my mind that they're trying to force us to bring our own but it's a fool's game. What if the person ahead of you in the checkout has contaminated bags and you put yours down in the same place?

So, they now get you to pack your own groceries too. The self serve checkouts haven't taken over Wegman's yet but they'll go the same way as Walmart. Someday the pendulum will swing back and someone will come up with the bright idea of giving super service instead of the nonsense we have now. 1

Someday the pendulum will swing back and someone will come up with the bright idea of giving super service instead of the nonsense we have now. i hope you are right. however my skepticism doubts it. i think the days of healthy big business customer service is long gone. i remember when i became totally miffed with it. back around 2004 or so, just after the turn of the century anyways, the Berry company wasn't billing me for my Yellow Pages ad. i had to call them repeatedly to tell them they were not billing me for it. after about 4 months i said the hell with it and figured they would figure it out someday. about four months later, when it became time to re-up for the coming year, i had to tell my rep about it and he eventually got it resolved. i mean, as anyone who has advertised with the book can tell you, we are talking a rather good chunk of change. since that time, it has only gotten worse, customer service has fallen by the wayside. i became fond of saying that if i ran my small business like companies ran their large business, i would have been out of business yesterday. anywho, to bring it back around and beg your pardon for the little rant.... i hate the self serve checkouts, i refuse to use them. i don't care if they are empty and the cashier line is out the door, i will patiently stand in line and wait for my turn. i patently object to them, i don't believe the companies that use them are returning the savings to me, the customer. so ***** them.

123719bwiqrb Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 The prisoner "slave labor" squealing in the Twitter comments are just hilarious. I can't fathom the cognitive dissonance - must be nice to live that way.
