Whole Foods to hire 6,000
Produce Retailer ^ | October 27, 2017 | Pamela Riemenschneider

Austin, Texas-based Whole Foods Market Inc. turned to social media to recruit 6,000 new store employees.

The company is having a National Hiring Day on Nov. 2., encouraging prospective employees to show up casual, prepared to interview. Whole Foods says people who show up have “the possibility for on-the-spot job offers.”

The company launched a website, joinwfm.com, with FAQs for prospective employees, where they can fill out a pre-hiring day application to streamline the process.

it might take 6,000 people just to type that.....if she every hyphenates that last name, it could cause a Y2K meltdown of last name fields that are hard-coded in length.

If you show up with a man bun and tattoos you’ll probably be a shoo-in to be hired. If you’re also a minority, you’re guaranteed to be hired.

Does anyone else get the impression that since”HE” took over the White House, there are more and more “HELP WANTED” and “NOW HIRING” signs everywhere you look? Virtually each day, here, I read where one company or another is either opening a new plant or even building a new factory?
Haven’t seen this in too damn many years. Why?

I don’t know. I tried to pronounce it and passed out.

(for those who might remember the old, old Steve Martin joke about speaking French - you have to choke on the words to pronounce them correctly).

I suppose that’s Germanic-based?

Didn’t Amazon buy them recently? Is this the result of that acquisition?

If so that’s the first time I’ve heard of one company buying another and it results in adding workers instead of massive layoffs.

Here in Reno there is a total labor shortage in virtually all skilled trades. I really wish I had the forsight to hire roofers and carpenters and plumbers back a couple years ago when they were desperate for anything

There's a Wegman’s supermarket due to open soon a few miles from me.I fear that I'll be 400 pounds within 6 months of opening day.

"“Moji?”

Erk. My bad. MOCHI. I misspelled that four-letter word. (hanging head...) Mochi are marshmallowy confections the Japanese are crazy for. The Whole Foods we go to has them, and we always get a few. Recipes are online, but apparently the construction is complicated. Making myself hungry, here...
