[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I have always wondered about TJ's employees. They are always so HAPPY. What gives? Is it free chocolate-covered almonds? Seriously, never had bad customer service there, not even close. [/quote] [b]And they always have an opinion on something in the cart![/b] I bet they get to feast away on the delicious food. Jealous. I'm seriously contemplated applying for a job there, but then I remember that I am generally not a people person. Sigh.[/quote] Actually, you know what I've noticed recently is that they always have an opinion regarding how my children are attached to the cart, which I find really annoying. If I take both my kids to TJs, I put the 3 year old in the front basket, and my 6 year old DD likes to stand on the edge and hold on, which is perfectly fine with me. But a few times, I've had staff come up to me and tell me it's dangerous, and would I please not do that. WTH? She's 6.5 years old! I'm not really worried about her not being able to hold on. I thought it was just me, but then a few weeks ago I was in line to pay, and the woman behind me, whose daughter turned out to also be 6, almost 7, was reprimanded by a staffperson who told her that he was worried her daughter might her cart over by holding on to it like that. She had a full cart too and was waiting to check out. She just said thank you and ignored him, and then I told her how I'm constantly being scolded by the TJ police for how I let my kids hold on to the cart and we had a big laugh. I don't really care and it's not like it's going to stop me from shopping there, but what is up with the nanny state at TJs? :roll: :D :lol: :P [/quote] If you owned a business in a district where there were a lot of lawyers and you saw children engaged in behavior that *might* endanger themselves...what would YOU do? It's good business CYA. If your did does get hurt, TJs can say that not only are there warnings on the cart, but that their employees specifically addressed the topic. I'm guessing that at least one kid got injured and sued, standing on the cart improperly.[/quote]
