As someone who works in a grocery store (but not on the front end), I like how you’re assuming baggers only bag. I guess it depends on the company, but those poor bastards tend to have to bag, clear carts from the lot, sweep the store, clean the restrooms, clean spills around the store, among other tasks. All while receiving the lowest wage in the store.

No. I don’t think it’s still a thing, but look up Belle Delphine if you want to know about it.

To create cheap (overworked) labor to make a customer’s shopping experience better, in hopes of them coming back to spend more money.

You do realize that you have to clock in and out to do these things, right? It’s not like you just do it then say, “Hey, I did that one thing! Pay me!” Even if its on a self-made schedule, these people deserve to be paid a proper wage for the work they do. This would also make drivers far less reliant on tips, which not every rider can give.

I regret being literate…
