Please don't flip the carts D: We cart pushers hate the corporation too!

...Now if you want to break them so we can take them one at a time to the back, taking about 10 minutes per cart and wasting a ton of corporate's time...

Have you ever heard of a slow down? You're supposed to slow down.

Never heard of Loblaw but today somehow I'm seeing many posts about it

Its a grocery monopoly here in Canada, so unless you're Canadian you may not be familiar with their treachery

Thanks. Are the posts inspired by the boycotts?

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Most likely

I thought the grocery monopoly in Canada was Tim Horton's

[–] DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago

There are 2 Tim Horton's, both of which are disappointments.

  1. a hockey player who got really, really drunk, did some barbiturates, then drove so fast that when they crashed the car flipped several times, and they died about 40m away.

  2. A fast food chain that uses their phone to illegally track you (even when the app was closed), and the Privacy Commissioner of Canada decided that was okay as long as they gave everyone a coffee and a donut. The material cost for those items is well under a dollar. They also don't make their baked goods at the stores.
