Most stores don’t even have clerks anymore.

I worked in a grocery store when I was 19. There were probably no fewer than 30 employees on the schedule on any shift (the large number of female cashiers around my age made it a great place to work! ;)

I was in that same store a few weeks ago. I think I counted a grand total of nine employees, including the manager.

Interesting. I also remember that every grocery check-out used to have a sacker and you didn’t ever have to ask for carry out. Great job for high school guys to have. Recently saw lots of suppliers restocking their own products with employees only restocking the store brands. The store I frequent the most has no butcher after 8 p.m.

Medical health insurance for Kroger employees, at least here in Texas, seems to be month to month and coverage is dependent upon the number of hours they work in a given month.

Looks like Starbucks employees are complaining about decrease in tips. The only place our family tips are sit down restaurants.
