tbf, ime people working grocery stores like lost/cast off items like that (assuming it doesn’t spoil quick). the small game of “oh, where does this go” is much wanted change of pace to the mind numbing tedium that is working a grocery store
I used to work for a winter sports store. Skis, snowboards, winter clothes, etc.
On slow days during the week, it was often just me running the floor while I had some guys doing service work in the back. So I had a day where I was alone in front of the store, doing price changes on a rack of skis. Behind me, the only customer in the shop went through every clothing rack and meticulously removed every garment from its hanger and laid it over top of the rack. When I finally caught on to what she was doing, she said, “It looked like you needed something to do!” And then she left without buying anything.
It’s been at least 15 years, and I still get livid thinking about that.
Change your mind on a product. Do they put it back where it belongs or throw it on the nearest clearly wrong shelf?
Oh my god I would just leave right then
Or, is the person a shopper at all? Do they act like they’ve never been to a grocery store in their lives?
That’s useful information.
Or do they compulsively steal? And if so, did they remember what my favourite chocolate bar is?
Gen z is already struggling to date. They don’t need the added barrier of not ordering limos for their burrito and being judged for it.
It’s all about compatibility here. If the date thinks they need limo burritos then that’s important information.
Meanwhile I have no idea what a limo burrito is
Doordash, hyerbolically? Metaphorically? referring to the transport vehicles as limos
Every burrito that gets delivered to your home is delivered in the best car it’ll ever drive in, miracles of technology, all limo’s to the burrito.
Are frozens a separate category here?
Just go shopping. We’ll discuss compatibility when we are done.

I’ve worked in retail and I disagree. Trying to keep everything in order but constantly having to deal with shoppers messing stuff is frustrating.
