    And now Jeremy has to stay an hour after close to face the shelves because his asshole manager won’t let him leave until the shelves are in perfect order.

    I appreciate the sentiment, but this is just possibly ruining somebody’s night that just wanted to clock out and meet up with their friends.

    Maybe someone passionate about this movement could distribute rolls of tiny US flag stickers to consumers so they could mark offending products, though poor Jeremy would still possibly be tasked with scraping them off.

    I don’t know. Jeremy needs a better job but there aren’t any.

      FWIW I worked in a supermarket. Go nuts, nobody cares. My asshole manager would make me keep moving everything anyways, and I later learned this was to prevent customers from easily finding the things they wanted.

      Wasting company time hurt the company, not me. I didn’t mind collecting shopping carts either. My friends weren’t waiting for me to get off work because the shifts were irregular anyways.

      I didn’t even care about stuff that risked the store shutting down, because nobody intends to work at a grocery store for very long. Nothing hurt my pay because it was already minimum wage. Go ahead and steal, I sure wasn’t paid to care.
