First, that’s a great way to lose all trust your customers have in you and make them go to a different store.
You really need to visit some rural parts of my country to see how they are food deserts only served by predatory companies like Walmart. During the early 00’s it was a common story for Walmart to run local business out of the area due to being able to use economy of scale to drive down prices. Just imagine living in a town where the only place to buy food was Walmart, fast food chains, or dollar stores.
Second, I’m pretty sure that’s illegal.
I just looked it up and the Netherlands has Uber unless I have old information. You do know they use surge pricing as their business model right? Companies like Walmart look at these business models and want to transition to them because they work. Its the boil the frog slowly approach to capitalism.
On the plus side for you Americans and Canadians, maybe you can finally get rid of that habit of showing product prices excluding tax.
I am not making excuses only giving an explanation. Please consider I am not defending this in the slightest just giving information. A human worker costs less than a digital tag if they are also paid to organize the shelving and stock. Also consider the United States has taxes that changed on the county and state level. National chains don’t show taxes because you can literally drive 15 minutes and be in a different area with a different sales tax laws. These taxes can range from standard sales tax to a PIF tax that gets added based on a time window. Most of our country does not use electronic tagging and the systems used to update them are not as dynamic as you think when they do have them. This post is an excellent example of this because just think of how big Walmart is in my country. They are just now swapping over to them and only with the idea of changing their pricing model.
IT Staff: “Hey this person is leaving should we do knowledge transfer?”
People running things: “Naw IT is a waste of money and does nothing. Why would we want to waste more money to pay someone to explain how the system works?”
This conversation has happened a non zero amount of times in my life.
Shame that you missed coloring your path gold.
Thanks I was sort of not getting this one too but Kumikommunism gave me some context and now this makes a little more sense.
Thanks for explaining it like that to me. I think I understand it now.
Can someone spell this one out for one of your neurodivergent comrades? Like is this some sort of sarcasm about the topics they are talking about?
Real “No, we have Bluey at home” vibes for sure! Gods you make me laugh just thinking of it.
My insurance provider site tells me I can go to a Target clinic and still be covered by them.
They really could have given him an athletic cup to wear or something.
Hahahahaha, I love that one! Its funny how one extention to flash is remembered as utter dog water people had to deal with while you had something like when Macromedia Shockwave popped off. It literally kicked off a generation of hobbiest programmers making games. Now for my personal hot take. Sure there were bad things about flash but to me when it was killed we lost a lot of accessibility for normal people to break into programming.
EDIT: Sorry if this comment seems out there I just started some new meds that sort of fuck with my brain case a little. When my fog has lifted I might rewrite it.
and death to america
The profit mode of capitalism aways shows its true colors when you are not the only shop in town. Notice how rumors about them removing account sharing started when major IP holders got done making their own platforms.
I am glad a few people like you remember how shit it was. I just think its funny all the kids think that Netflix only turned cur on us now. Its like sweet summer child. They only did the stuff they did because it kept them relevant. Now that they have to actually compete we see how they really are. The account sharing era fooled people but I have a long memory for tech.
I remember when netflix was only on windows because it needed Silverlight.
They see his comedy as edgy and real like theirs only to find his brain is not loaded with conservative worms.
If you ever want a trip down a rabbit hole I have a bald man that can lead you.
I totally forgot about Teh Klob.
