Overall, I am pleased with the store. There are many friendly, helpful employees. The "runners" are great for when you get to the register and realize you've forgotten an item. They will actually go get the product for you. They have good sales/discounts. If you are a regular shopper, you will qualify for a free turkey/chicken/lasagna during holiday seasons. I really like that they hire folks with special needs. I wish they didn't keep those cardboard displays and such in the aisles. With the amount of volume that the store gets, trying to maneuver around those is a pain. I can't tell you how many times I have tried to squeeze by them when the aisles are filled with customers and I've knocked them over. But I can deal with that. I understand that they are just trying to make a sale. But my biggest problem is with cleanliness and being sanitary - Especially in the deli department! I have seen and reported at least 3 incidents of the employees in the deli department eating while on duty. To me, that is disgusting. And it is never with a utensil, either. They are blatantly bringing food to their mouths right in front of the customers. And then they say "Can I help you?" as they are chewing and food is dropping out of their mouths. EWWWWW! No, you can't help me now that you've just had your hands in your mouth. I have actually walked away and not purchased what I intended to purchase because of this behavior. I've taken my business elsewhere, even if it has meant spending more money. I don't need saliva on the food I am serving to my family. If this is allowed in front of the customers, what on earth is going on behind the scenes where customers can't see? This is a supermarket. Food is the main product. I would think that supervisors/managers, etc. would put a LOT of emphasis on being sanitary during employee training. Eating should NOT be allowed while employees are on duty, ESPECIALLY in a department where they are handling unpackaged food for the customer! The manager I spoke with recently brushed it off, telling me that many of the employees they hire are kids with little life experience. That really didn't make it any better. Any paid position has its policies and procedures. If these "kids" cannot understand or follow those policies and procedures, their employment should be seriously considered. And, BTW, the woman giving free samples yesterday was no "kid." She was a grown woman, slobbishly scarfing down a sandwich as she stood behind the table where she was encouraging people to try food that were in bowls in front of her. I say again, EWWWW. I almost stopped a man before he took a sample to warn him that her crumbs were probably in the bowl. read more
