I'll just say Clarington, so suburbs.
It was a zoo in there too, but the last couple of days (ok last 2 days) it has quieted down quite a bit.
Compared to last Thursday (like the Thursday of.....well March 12th) is when shit got crazy at my store that night and then through the weekend, just a total shitshow and sales were up 3x as usual (and our store is the top selling store in our region apprently)
But yeah, just the last two days I'm seeing things are a lot calmer, customers are calmer, product is coming in but it's not being hoarded like before.
What's it like where you work and are you in a more populated metro location? Are people showing up to work? (Walmart loves to hire high school kids who don't give a f***, impossible to get fired here there's always several employees at a time who just show up whenever they feel like it, management does nothing, doesn't cut their hours, there's a guy on our schedule who hasn't showed up for a shift in 3 months and he hasn't yet been fired, but apparently they're gonna do it soon lol)
I'm near the dixie/dundas location in mississauga, if you're familiar. It's right next door to a costco, which isn't helping matters. Went in a few days ago and it was a scene from a worldstar black friday video in the states. Total chaos. My fear is if that scene is a microcosm of our society when things become increasingly bleak and desperate; social order beginning to break down. Maybe I'm just a pessimist but this virus isn't going away anytime soon. It's bound to get much worse. Far worse than we're able to comprehend or willing to digest right now. I hope I'm wrong.
