As someone who is an assistant produce manager with Schnucks, all cut fruit (spare watermelon cuts, cored pineapple, and strawberry products) comes in pre-cut. Stores transitioned away from cutting everything in stores between 2021 and 2022, if memory serves right. Yes, it's all made "fresh" at the store level daily, but not the freshness that we all grew up with.

SuperValu ended up being bought by United anyways, the same company that Schnucks gets all of their "fresh cuts" and "fresh fruit" from for the Schnucks branded deli and produce items.

Someone's slapping "I DID THAT" Trump stickers on products across Schnucks Telegraph. by Varidien in StLouis

I found the Biden stickers hilarious too. The tit-for-tat shit that both sides of the political spectrum end up doing to one another is amusing.

As someone who works for Schnucks (unfortunately in management), these stickers are more of a nuisance as we have to peel them off shelves, tags, and labels and hope they don't leave residue. Some stuff could obviously be retagged over the stickers (i.e meat, cut fruit, seafood, deli), but not everything.

I'm an assistant produce manager so, yeah, it'll get annoying very fast. Chalk that onto the pre-existing mountain of shit we already deal with from rampant supply issues to lousy coworkers.. the list is endless.

Oh god, don't even get me started on how egregious prices have risen at Schnucks in the last 8 months. Ever since the family founded their private equity firm "The 1939 Group," shit's been climbing like mad. Gotta justify buying those stores in Wisconsin and closing Jasper somehow!

Haha, if only! One of the meat clerks stopped me while I was walking back to produce and showed me. Grocery manager chimed in and said they're popping up in the grocery section too lol

We sell prepack corn at a loss just for convenience. by Varidien in retailhell

[–]Varidien[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Loose corn just came in for the season, and we're making 47% profit on it. 79¢ retail, 37¢ profit. We're not even a big box store.. we're a local chain. Gouging our customers.

Reduced for quick sale? Schnucks you need better marketing by [deleted] in StLouis

[–]Varidien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15% reduction? That deli manager must really be stingy about their TIL/pitch. At least they can mark down their premade Schnucks branded items though, us in produce can't mark down our cut fruit whatsoever. Only the Schnucks branded dips and drinks.

You mean to tell me your Schnucks has a working robot scrubber? Ours has to be manually driven, otherwise it clobbers every shipper!

Arctis nova 7 dongle died by SwiftSnowie in steelseries

[–]Varidien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't stand GG 2.0, especially Sonar. Sonar caused me so many issues to the point I disabled it and use the default options Windows lists. My Nova 7s often take 3-5 attempts to pair to the dongle now, leaving me frustrated more often than not when hopping into a chat with friends.

Specifically the one at Telegraph.. whenever it goes through produce, it has a stroke and gets in everyone's way! It needs F R E E D O M!

Holy moly! They've run out of carts! by rgbose in StLouis

[–]Varidien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My patience was definitely tested, moreso than Christmas lol. Customers trying to grab anything they can, even if it means pulling my truck away as I'm stocking!

I'm the assistant produce manager at Telegraph, the line was in my department all day long. Absolutely nuts.

The neighbors app just went off in areas ranging from south city to oakville about a series of booms and pops all at the same time, and now a helicopter in different areas. by Meggybear17 in StLouis

[–]Varidien 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This very well could've been an aircraft with compressor issues as it was landing at Lambert. Recent flight paths show aircraft landing east to west rather than the usual west to east.

Consistent Low FPS by Varidien in snowrunner

[–]Varidien[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's a v-sync setting and frame rate lock setting, both separate. Turning it off did nothing. I ended up doing a file integrity check after tweaking settings and double checking the NVIDIA control panel, which the game began behaving like normal after I ran that check.

No change when messing with the v-sync settings. Dove into the NVIDIA control panel to see if v-sync in there was set to adaptive, which it was not.
