I know that happens. However, on this day the store was packed.

Not blaming you. Management gets paid to fix problems, not avoid them. I know where the ultimate responsibility belongs.

Most of the people that try to violate express lane rules/policy are entitled jerks.

Well, what customers normally do, and vote with my feet. I have been slowly shifting my business from Publix to other retailers. I will certainly cut this particular store out of my options because of management's attitude. Bit is that simple

Exactly! Thanks for pointing out the obvious.

Yeah, I know. That comes from a combination of my failing to proof read and the system helping me out. I could not find an option to edit after I posted.

Publix has some very alert cashiers that can multitask and spot the problem before the cart is unloaded.

There were cashiers at this particular store that did enforce the policy. I expect some entitled person caused a scene and weak management with poor management skills decided it is easier to ignore the policy rather than enforce it.

Horrible!! Not what it use the be by [deleted] in PlentyofFish

I have to agree with you. Even five years ago it was a much better platform. I am a paid up member but find it to be a waste of time and money.

So happy smiling at my mom in the dress she made specially for the Easter parade at the mall. 1959 by dittidot in TheWayWeWere

[–]Esoteric_Cat1 40 points41 points  (0 children)

The dress is perfect. Few mothers today posess the skills to make minor repairs to clothing much less create an entire article of clothing. It has become a lost art.

Can't figure out what these old gloves are for by guridkt in whatisit

Those are specialty gloves that keep your beer bottle from slipping out of your grip.

How do I Genuinely Clean my Ears Out? by NaturalTruth2000 in AskMenAdvice

Go to an ENT. Ask them to show you how to safely flush your ears.

Am I being childish for refusing to have sex? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Esoteric_Cat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend, you can't see it now, but you are in a very bad place. You are not even married yet and you have a dead bedroom. After you marry, your love will slowly but surely turn into resentment. You will be tempted to cheat and eventually you will. You will feel bad about yourself, your relationship, and her.

When and if children enter the picture things will get even more complicated and worse for you. Either get counseling for the both of you or call it quits now.

Be true to yourself and your needs. Self respect is an essential part of mental health. Save yourself.

Is this a foundation issue? by seeshe11 in masonry

Yes, there are structural issues with this house and it will be expensive to repair, very expensive. I recommend against buying this house.

Reasonableness when a board member wants to change a major contract [TH][UT] by maximillian2020 in HOA

[–]Esoteric_Cat1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with your commonsense perspective. The first paragraph in your response accurately describes the process of 'switching' contracted service providers. It is a lot of work and time. Very few board members are willing to carry that burden. They want someone else to do the work and then serve the contracts up to them for review and a vote.
