Wow

It looks like the people around town are supportive of the strikers and locked out supermarket employees. All of the parking lots are virtually empty (with the odd car marked in support of the strike). I needed groceries, so I went to Trader Joes as usual. Damn was that place packed. The bread and meat were completely ransacked. The frozen veggies were on the verge of being gone. Amazingly all of the employees there were in great moods helping the newcomers to find their way around the store. And the customers were surprisingly compassionate upon learning their necessary pine nuts/pasta/meat/etc. was out of stock. Just had to post this. 🙂
