Oh, so that’s the usual policy. Thanks.

No worries. I was in the racket for years.

Did mostly insurance defense work. If I thought we had a loser, we would settle - unless the plaintiff demanded an outrageous amount in damages. Then we'd admit liability but contest damages (that worked remarkably well. Focus the jury on the issue.)

Kroger decided to cut its losses.

The county in which this Kroger is located has been carried by the Republican candidates for President in every election since 2000. In 2020, Trump won the county by 29 percentage points.

Good for them.

Red and Yellow, Black and White, they are precious in His sight... would have been a better choice.

Kroger denies the allegations

It’s hard to find some company that hasn’t sold out.

Tomorrow we’re buying some furniture, and plan to go to Rooms To Go. There are things we like better, but RTG is advertising like crazy on Real America’s Voice. They may do some bad stuff that I don’t know about.

I haven't been in a Kroger store for at least fifteen years.   They torqued me off one too many times.   Their employees were always rude.   The last straw was the day I tried to use 8 My Coke Rewards coupons for 8 refrigerator 12 packs of Coke and they refused to honor them.   I was told I could only use one at a time.   They would have been reimbursed by Coca-Cola, so there shouldn't have been a problem and in the past they had let me redeem more that one at a time.   I had been visiting that store for twenty five years.   The lead person at the store was a Turkish woman named Donia and the Manager backed her up.

I went right down the street to Publix; they didn't bat an eye and gave me 8 free cartons for the My Coke Rewards coupons.

I suspect there is difference in corporate personalities between Kroger, headquartered in Ohio, and Publix, headquartered in Florida.

The rainbow hearts are just another way to alienate customers.   How many LGBTQ people does Kroger think there are in our population?   Virtue signaling is a disingenuous farce.

For that jolly addition to the thread, I shall not weep crocodile tears. :)

So Kroeger execs didn’t even have the courage to admit why the fired these men?
