THIS IS MY LIFE and because I’M YA Girl, I want to share.
I went to Trader Joe’s yesterday. I’m not sure if you have it where you live. It’s kind of a less expensive health store. I went in to buy some KEFIR TEA because it’s supposed to be good for you.
After I grabbed it a lady comes to me and says, “Where are the vitamins?” Because I’ve been to Trader Joe’s a few times, I said, “Oh right over here.” and I started walking. Then I stopped and said, “No, they’re this way.” Then I stopped again and said, “Ooops, I just remembered, they are next to the bread.” The lady got pissed! She said, “Do you know where the hell they are, are not?” I said, “Well, I don’t work here.” And she said very angrily, “You don’t? Why didn’t you just say that!!!?”
Should I have not helped and just said, “I don’t work here?” What about you? Do you help people…like would you walk with someone somewhere and point an item out?
Oh and check this out, the owner of Trader Joes is planning on opening a new chain of stores. Everything on the shelves will be expired. It will be up to 5 days past the expiration date, but marked waaaaay down. I actually think this is going to work for HIM, because people can hardly afford groceries. Would you buy expired food to save some cash?
