In the largest grocery and discount chain in the country, until about 12 days ago, employees in individual stores were allowed to decide how much of particular products to order (for example, ordering more than usual). That practice was halted at about then. Everything is ordered from a central office.

The world got crazier today.

Every single frozen item in 3 stores — gone.

I promised not to cuss 15 years ago (or so) but WHATTHE F’ing F????

But I did h-5 myself for scoring few boxes of kleenex (or similar). I had to tell everyone in line “I am NOT hoarding.”

To be fair they just laughed and said that “hey we are all doing what we can.”

FReepers — and I dearly love you all (and included an old FRiend here) — 3 rules to get us through this: kindness, patience and humor.
