I understand these "shock" type store incidences...I was the victim of one.
I posted earlier on this shocking incident at my local supermarket where I have shopped uneventfully for YEARS:

I was told by a store employee: "You know that Joe Biden raped four women." And he smirked when he said it.

This shocking incident left me nearly speechless. I had asked him about the severe shortage of frozen foods. He started to tell me about supply lines during the pandemic. I said I understood and I am glad that our state (CT) is one of the safest from the pandemic. Then he said to me "You aren't going to vote for Biden, are you?" and then his LIE about Joe.

He obviously thought this was in response to me giving a big endorsement of our Dem. governor Ned Lamont (who, btw, deserves praise for his handling of the crisis).

well, I reported him to the manager who gave him a warning. He was also told to apologize to me personally which I have yet to get.

Now I see shocking behavior (caught on cellphone and posted in social media) by these "crazy" people in stores, gas stations etc and I wonder if there isn't some sort of "planned disruption" as a form of "owning the libs" going on here.

I am glad that this behavior is being shown here on DU.

Who knows. Anyway, I appreciate having these "incidents" posted here on DU. Keep it up!

I don't believe this story for a second.

1. Take a cart of groceries to the checkout...

then announce you won't buy them because (employee name goes here) is bothering me with his election politics while I am shopping.

When it costs money and time, the employee will be shown the door. There are more of us than there are of him.

How does this cost the store money?  They aren't going to hire another employee to put back one cart full of groceries.  This just makes you look like a total jerk.

We're supposed to believe that a random grocery employee goes on a diatribe about the Biden accusations?  Ridiculous.

This shocking incident left me nearly speechless. I had asked him about the severe shortage of frozen foods 1.). He started to tell me about supply lines during the pandemic 2.). I said I understood and I am glad that our state (CT) is one of the safest from the pandemic 3.). Then he said to me "You aren't going to vote for Biden, are you?" 4.) and then his LIE about Joe.

1.) Unless this happened between mid-March and Mid-April or so, this shows this story is pure or substantially fictional.

2.) Early in the shutdowns, production and transportation were disrupted to some degree. When bureaucrats' dicta force production or logistics people to stay home, spot shortages happen. Especially when there is a substantial demand surge. BUT other than sanitizing wipes (whose production is hampered by necessary materials being also used for masks and gowns and there is a huge demand surge for all those products), shortages of various commodities are several months in the past.

3.) Actually, per https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ , Connecticut is the 4th worst state in the US in deaths per million population, and only very slightly less bad than Massachusetts. And per https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ETm51GayRjlnoaRVtUOWfkolEeAQZ-zPhXkCbVe4_ik/edit#gid=435667374 , Connecticut is the third worst state when it comes to the percentage of Covid-19 deaths of Long Term Care (=nursing homes) patients (though NY jiggered or jiggers its stats to exclude LTC patients who are taken to regular hospital before dying).

4.) Unless CTyankee leaves out a large amount of context in which CTyankee acted the jackass, this is the point at which his :bouncy: becomes pure fiction. Absent severe provocation, store employees are not going to get into that kind of argument with a customer while on the job. Because absent severe provocation, such a store employee would all but certainly get fired.

My guess is that the story is untrue and is the reverse of what happened. CTyankee when full Karen on some poor employee when they disagreed with her political views.

The store clerk was lying.


Joe Biden has raped a whole lot more than four women.

the only thing a grocery store employee says to me is "aisle 3" when I ask him where is the Spam located...

Missing subtext:  CTYankee wasted a quarter hour of employee's time haranguing him with his TDS/Joe+Ho-in-two-zero BS.

I was told store employees were essential workers. Why is this DUmmie trying to get an essential worker fired?
