They don't need illegals. They've got ROBOTS to do the menial stuff.
I hate the robots. They think the googly eyes make them look less sinister, but I hate them just the same! LOL!

According to a statement by Teamsters Local 25, Ahold Delhaize, owner of Stop & Shop, “has threatened the livelihood and well-being of over 900 hardworking Teamsters Local 25 members and their families by threatening to close Stop & Shop’s Freetown Distribution Center, if Teamsters Local 25 does not agree to concessions in health care coverage that will cost our members thousands of dollars per year.”
Fall River Reporter contacted Stop & Shop for a response to Teamsters Local 25 statement.
“Stop & Shop is driving forward a multi-year strategy that includes efforts to lower prices and improve the in-store experience through initiatives like continued store remodels. An important component of this effort is reducing overall costs, including distribution costs at our Freetown, Mass., facility. To achieve this, our goal is to work with Teamsters Local 25 to reach a productive new agreement. We believe a fair labor savings goal can be achieved, while also offering associates wage increases, increased pension contributions as required by the fund, and by shifting to a more competitive healthcare plan that still maintains a high standard of benefits.

How many illegals do they employ?
It’s Mass. I’ll bet a lot.
If traveling to CT or RI bring plastic bags.
I suspect one should do so if going to stay in Massachusetts too.
In Providence, RI, the Family Dollar in Osterville (?) did not have English-speaking employees on duty.
They just have illegal midgets inside the ‘robot’.
Olneyville
Aha! that’s it!
Stop and Shop could have all of their delivery needs serviced by Amazon.
However, when you have to pay union level benefits to have someone look for a spill, suddenly robots are attractive.
True...and S & S just recently went union so you have a point there.
