Miami just doesn't hold any appeal to me (sorry to those who live near there - you'd be the only reason I'd want to go), nor do Mexico or Paris. And I'm just too lazy, frankly, for a trip to happen this year.
KG- there's a TJ's much closer to you that you can boycott. The one in Glendale on Port Washington at Bayshore Mall. That one is much more convenient for your boycottage.
chefann said:And it's too bad that the 2 new meals I've made this week that DH really liked were based on TJ's sauces, cuz I'll have to go and get more. Of course, I can go to the other location so I don't have to run into the manager again. (I'm such a chicken.)
Oh, great, now they'll be selling Rae's Raspberry Jam.raebates said:I was in Indianapolis today. I drove right by the TJ's. I mentally blew them a raspberry. I would have physically blown a raspberry, but the woman in my line of sight would probably have wondered why the lady in the PC van was doing that to her.

Which Ann are we talking about?baychef said:You are too good for them, Ann. Apparently they don't know how to interview or they would have seen someone who is highly intelligent, personable and would have been one of their best employees.

The backstory is that the person works for Pampered Chef and was at Trader Joe's to deliver a product to a customer. They saw a sign on the door that they needed someone for the demo area and decided to apply for the job. They mentioned their interest in the demo position and filled out an application.
The person did not hear back for about 2 months after they applied. They assumed the position had been filled, but received a call this week for an interview.
The person did not mention specific preparation, but did mention that they talked about their previous jobs and also mentioned their experience with Pampered Chef.
The person felt that the interview went well. The manager (known as a captain at Trader Joe's) was very nice and asked a lot of questions about Pampered Chef in relation to the job. The person also mentioned that they forgot to ask about wages during the interview.
The dress code at Trader Joe's is very casual, with employees wearing Hawaiian shirts or t-shirts, and either shorts or jeans. The person also mentioned that they won't have to invest in a lot of new clothes for the job, other than a couple of pairs of jeans.
