I got in an argument with a toaster and now I lost a bet and I’m here just to get my house back.

Sure. But space optimization is also a consideration. You can’t put a 24 pack of water on the top shelf for grandma to pick up. It’s designed with the customer in mind as well.
- Comment on What a great idea 1 week ago:
I think that is not exclusive to grocery stores. Hence why my confusion. Every store from Best Buy to Kohls to Target to Costco to Auto Zone has a sale section for impulse buys.
Every company preys on people’s psychology.
I understand just fine. I just don’t agree it’s aggressive or up to the workers. Including the management. Those directives are extremely high up the food chain in terms of decisions. And from my understanding the vendors pay for their space. They want to make it an impulse for that extra 6 pack or bag of chips.
- Comment on What a great idea 1 week ago:
One article that I can’t even fully read? Hardly call that evidence. It’s an interesting hypothesis. However in practice impulse buys are not what the discussion was. It is that the entire store is there to “bombard” you. It’s not. It’s categorized and that’s about it. You are thinking of the “sales” area. Which is routinely paid for by vendors.

Did you? Do you know how most are laid out? Please enlighten me on their “information bombardment”.
- Comment on What a great idea 1 week ago:
There isn’t anyone saying it’s a hostile design. You don’t know what you are talking about.
- Comment on What a great idea 1 week ago:
No they aren’t. They have reset crews that come and change the layout for many reasons. I was a grocery manager for 15 years. Specifically the stocking manager. There has never been a “bombard them with information” directive.
It’s what sells best in the area and make it available. It’s not that highly coordinated.

Rude. I worked as a grocery manager for 15 years.
Dummy.
- Comment on What a great idea 1 week ago:
I don’t think you realize who runs grocery stores. Most are just there because they have to be. They just throw it on the shelf and do what they are told.

Where I agree to your fundamentals I think it gets lost in the noise. I think one loud and obnoxious asshole can make many great people look bad. Even if there are more of good stock than bad. You could argue that is a reflection of the people itself. However it’s not necessarily a lack of oversight. It’s an unprecedented event that makes the society look like a bunch of redneck assholes.
- Comment on Belief 3 weeks ago:
Human goodness and society are two different things. There are many great people that do amazing things that don’t it for credit or recognition or money. Most go unnoticed.
Society on the other hand is crazy and greedy.

There is nothing destroying his political career other than his death. There will be nothing that stops him at this point since we let it get here. He is a circus and everyone loves the ride. Including the media because it makes him relevant.
There was a time when the news was only 30 minutes. That we talked about other shit. I’m not saying we SHOULDN’T pay attention. Just that there is more than just some old white fucks arguing over who is getting the shaft while they make money and prevent anyone from becoming successful.
