I went to Meijer’s ( regional grocery chain) early this morning. Since it was 8 AM, I was practically the only one in the store who was shopping. The rest of the activity in the store was from the staff as they frantically tried to recover from the weekend.<\/p>\n
Every isle had at least two people who were busy restocking the shelves. I found it interesting that half of the people restocking the shelves were wearing suits and ties.<\/p>\n
I heard a strange sound coming from one of the isles so I checked it out.\u00c2\u00a0 To my surprise, there was a guy using a propane powered buffer.\u00c2\u00a0 While I have seen hundreds of electric buffers, I had never seen a propane buffer.<\/p>\n
It seemed to work quite well.\u00c2\u00a0 At least the guy didn’t have to worry about hitting his cord or\u00c2\u00a0 where to plug it into.\u00c2\u00a0 And he was flying down the isle.<\/p>\n
I suspect that he was being paid by the job and not by the hour.\u00c2\u00a0 I know a lot of stores contract out there floor care.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 I don’t know if Meijer’s contracts out their floor care but it wouldn’t surprise me if they do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
