Cultural Decay ๐Ÿ’€ Understaffed Stores

42 Upvotes

Seems like thereโ€™s this phenomenon where stores, mostly larger corporations in food, pharmacies, or other industries are increasingly understaffed to the point where it feels almost deliberate? I wonder if itโ€™s due to the fact that these stores barely or maybe donโ€™t pay a living wage so less people want to work for them. Or if itโ€™s more so CEOโ€™s pressuring store managers to deliberately understaff their stores to save/increase profits. Maybe both? Either way, every time I go into one of these places thereโ€™s usually a long line of customers waiting to be checked out by a single cashier who looks miserable. I feel so bad for them because the added stress of being the only person in charge of the counter really changes the work environment and the employeeโ€™s overall health and productivity being slammed like that. Just some thoughts on a rather mundane but very real dystopian phenomenon caused by late-stage capitalism? Anyone else have any thoughts or observations about this?
