  1. When they were talking about employee safety, I thought they were going to address the root cause of why these stores are so often targets of armed robbery, like they have poor security systems and there is seldom more than one employee on a shift.

    1. Yeah the “root cause” is that these places are cheap because they do the bare minimum, whether it is staffing or building setup or anything else. If they ever fix these root causes, I doubt the money to do it will come out of the C-suite compensation, it will just be passed along to the people who shop there because they can’t afford anywhere else.
