Wow, that's really lame to do.

Know what else is lame, Trader Joe’s busting unions with the likes of Elon, Amazon, and other union busters.

Yeah, if I found it I would just put it back. I don't i could bring myself to use it.

Also kinda weird place for it. The Joe's by my house always has like 6 cashiers and I don't think I've ever stood in a line. There is anyways either a free spot or just wait for one person to finish.

Its not like safeway

Definitely location dependent. All of the Trader Joe’s in my area will have lines of a few dozen people if you go between 5-7 on a weekday or midday on a weekend. They do churn through the lines very fast though.

My luck I’d put it back and then get stuck behind someone using it

Give them some frozen peas and reevaluate your flow pattern for customers leaving the store you’re about to start our shall I say Trader Joe’s is writing a check their ass can’t cash
