In order to limit my exposure to people, due to the fact I live with someone who is extremely vulnerable, I had planned to do my shopping then, as, I imagine, had many others.
Not to mention the reduced hours for already poor employees.
It would be better to limit the number of people who could be in the store at one time than to do this.
They are not reducing the hours for employees. They have already addressed that issue. They need the time to restock without everyone getting in the way. Haven’t you seen the videos of people mobbing the stockers trying to bring out water and toilet paper?
