I don't think it's possible for them to exceed the occupancy limit, but they have all these crazy lines and people directing shoppers where to go. This is a useless policy, dictated by corporate by people who don't actually work in stores, it's only aggravating and confusing people.

You've just figured out how every company in America works.
I'm glad I only work 3 hours this week because yes, it will be aggravating for everyone.

Double ugh.
I TOLD my wife last week to START THINKING ABOUT STUFF YOU MAY NEED that you can still buy at Walmart since everything else is closed.
Now that general merchandise is blocked off, she will think of a bunch of stuff we need.

I'm thinking I will still be able to get my hands on items after the store closes at 8:30pm - IF they will still allow associates to make purchases after closing like they have been doing.

I suspect that he spun so fast he started a fire and is a charcoal briquette long before this virus even came along.

Have been using the neighborhood family owned deli market for my needs. So far so good. No hoarders and its good to give back to the community!

looked like the Harrisburg home depot jumped on this bandwagon...

Nobody wants to be "the one" who allowed "unsafe" behavior in their store and have it come back that patient X had shopped there the week prior to dying of the plague.

Our store has not started that. We can't do anything until the signage arrives.

Supervisor said that our Supercenter size allows for 1,000 customers and we never have that many.
(Can't vouch for his statement's accuracy)

I scored a 34oz bottle of hand sanitizer on my break. Woo!

Then I had someone ask if we had any and I said, "Quikly - follow me!" Dashed back across the store and it was still there!

I want to see the knuckle dragging mouth breathers at my local Wal mart calculate 20%. They cant even scan bar codes correctly. After hearing about this fukery yesterday I drove by just to see the line. Well the lot was full and doors were blocked, but no line. Why? The lady at the door was just watching people walk in. She probably cant count to twenty with her shoes off. Not a single person was waiting to get in and the lot was full.
