A reason I shop at Trader Joe's...it opened nine years ago last month and about third of the original employees or at least of many years are still there...and happy. They like their rotating jobs...everyone is trained as a cashier, stock, the Question walker, the demo kitchen. I helped one with LC paleo and she lost about 30 pounds since I talk to many of them about the health of products at the demo bar, all very friendly. The store has a German man and Austrailan woman who have been working the wine dept. for years...so easy...just buy whatever they tell me is good. I literally bypass a couple of dozen (my town is SO overbuilt with retail) other grocers that are closer (Publix, Fresh Market, Earthfare and all the regulars) to go five miles to TJ.
