Default Re: Companies you hate

With you on Shaws. The Warden and I hit Shaws last night. With a storm forecast, the "new" Shaws on Grove St. Worcester had 2 cashiers working at 7:30 p.m. Note that there are about 25 manned checkout lines and a handful of self service checkout stations... So they had 2 registers running (one of which was a 12 itmes or less) on a Thursday night the day before a big storm is to hit. Of course we had too much stuff to use the self checkout.

Also not a fan of Charter Communications. Charter negotiates with the city, so our choices are Charter, DirectTV, or over the air television. The channel lineup stinks, the rates are high, and on days like today with heavy snow I'm sure I'll have fuzzy reception.
