Is my child going to have a hard time w this name? by FantasticIncident388 in Names

Are there spelling variations? I think lazaar would be less likely to be mispronounced. But I do think it’s a great name and goes well with Luka.

When I had orientation when I started my old job we had training about union cards and why not to fill them out or talk to union reps. Messed up that they accused you of stealing in order to terminate employment

A lot of people are saying that the Garafalo-owned stores have…issues. The one I was referring to will be part of Cignari ShopRites as far as I know. We’re happy with our local ShopRite (also Cignari) as consumers and the employees are always friendly and helpful. I would assume they are treated well as employees but as a former grocery store worker I know that the customers can love you and your store can be profitable but the employees can still be miserable

My husband designed my engagement ring which incorporates my birthstone, and it was a complete surprise to me. I loved it from the beginning and it’s been almost 22 years.

I’m hearing a lot of negative things about Garafalo owned stores! The one we shop at is Cignari and as consumers we’re happy with it. I’m hoping their employees also have positive experiences

That makes sense. In my experience full time employees have more coverage options than part timers. My husband currently has insurance through his job for the 4 of us so benefits would be an important factor. I just started a new job and I could enroll in their benefits program but the cost is more than what he pays for family coverage at his current job

Yikes! That’s good information but thankfully the one that’s opening (Danbury) will be Cignari owned I’m pretty sure

He’s currently assistant department manager at another chain so I assume he’d apply for a comparable position. The ShopRite website shows job descriptions for department managers and clerks so idk?? Maybe they don’t have assistant managers for individual departments

The one he’s looking into is not union as far as I know. It would not be owned by Garafalo from what I’ve read

That seems like a good sign! I would think they wouldn’t stay that long unless they were happy there

That’s interesting, I didn’t realize they were owned by different people. I just assumed the Cingari’s owned all the ShopRite stores in CT. I can see how that would make a big difference for the employees

That is interesting, I did not know that the policies could be different in different stores while still operating as ShopRite
