Maybe you haven’t been during the period of time when the employees were being “punished” .

Lidl’s Fair Trade, respect for dolphins and other marine species and the where is the respect for the employees. All bluff.

No one from LIDL’s management wrote any comments in this blog. Are they so cowards?

IRRELEVANT to the argument in question

I do not know which countries you have visited, JPS. I have visited quite a few and in all continents and have never seen supermarket cashiers standing.

Besides the inhumanity of “punishment”, the whole thing smacks of a collective punishment which is illegal and against human rights. It is or used to be permitted only in the army.

If this is the shape of things to come in a situation where jobs might be scarce, then we’re back to serfdom.

What a shame to expose those poor employees to clients like a group of slaves.

What next, line them all up in a coffle? I will not patronize any business that treats employees in this fashion, no matter what they’re supposed to be punished for.

Yes. It sometimes helps when someone lifts the lidl on things, doesn’t it?

It is great news to know that Lidl admin took notice of what got said here and elsewhere.

The person who uploaded the flyer said she received it in her mail and scanned it. Scroll through the comments. It’s there.

The height of the desk is suited for its purpose. Nothing wrong there. I haven’t actually looked (or at least I don’t remember looking) but I don’t think that I’ve ever seen Tesco till tarts on their feet; they always sit. The same at Ocado (formerly Waitrose of John Lewis’s Group). Sainsbury’s also.

[Daphne – Till tarts? Shabby.]

Yes they are but only at checkout time.
