    As far as that bare shelves thing goes, it is supposed to be the
sales peoples responsibility to be stocking the shelves all day
long.  Mind you, to save money, many times there will only
be 1-2 people working for most of the day and this never happens.
Hell, many times the merchandising crew, who put away the trucks
in the morning (or tries) don't even bother looking at the shelves to
see if thay need anything.  Many times, if you don't see it on the
shelf, its probably up in the overstock somewhere, mind you most
people there will not know where to look, but thats BB for ya.

Yes, I work there now, but will be gone soon,  things are changing,
but it seems to take YEARS before anything really happens.  I gotta
agree with the $6 labor ideas people are having, pay there apsolutely
blows, I don't know why I have been there this long.

Crazy stuff.
