    Petco. I made a delivery to the DC in LA. I was told there was no restroom I could use on the property because of company policy. It's not corporate policy, but it is in that DC. I delivered to a Petco DC on east coast that at least provided a porta-pottie. But like flying said above, I will not shop there ever again after seeing the policy of it being ok for the dogs to pee on the floors and products in the store, but a driver cannot use a restroom in the DC.

    Yes there is a restaurant in The Treemont Neighborhood of Cleveland that I refuse to ever support because of the backwards way they do business.

    Wal mart, tyson plants, americold. Tyson plants are nasty, slow to load even after appt time like 12 hrs or more, wal mart because of same experience mentioned before. Told my wife to never spend a dime at wal mart and absolutely no chinese crap from any store. You can buy american made products for anything just research it.

    oh I put them right up there with my ex wife lol they tie for number one on the never again list

    it used to not be that way ( with both hilariously enough ). I was there during the period Mr Sam was alive through when he died and the aftermath of his kids fighting each other for control.

    they used to care about their customers, vendors, employees and even drivers were treated well in those days.

    When sam died it literally changed overnight. If the public knew what went on behind the doors and how the company felt about them as customers nobody would shop there.

    when I left I wrote a scratching 3 page resignation letter calling out all the stupidity, favoritism and blatant ethical issues they have there. Never really been one to be politically correct and bite my tongue. Being young and dumb and not realizing the full scope of influence the company had in rural small town sc, I had to move away from the area just to find work after a year of being blacklisted in the community as a bad employee even though I had a wall full of commendations and top achiever awards. when they say you'll never work in this town again they mean it lol the attitude is very much 'how dare you quit us'. It's fine if we fire you but don't have the nerve to walk away from the mighty malwart.

    Yeah I guess you could say I don't like them lol

    Winn Dixie...the pharmacy where my wife gets her 1 prescription fill in person (the rest are by express-script, but the insurance company won't allow this med to be shipped via mail because it is a narcotic). More than once they have shorted her on her meds, the last time by more than 30 pills. She has gone thru the assistant manager, the store manager and the regional manager without resolution. She has since filed grievances or complaints with the BBB, FDA, and one of Florida's government departments that oversee's the licensing and regulation of a pharmacy. She has also filed a complaint with Winn Dixie corporate offices. We're hoping to get enough attention drawn to this company to shut it's doors in our community because we aren't the only people getting screwed over by them like this. The bad thing is, there are only a couple 'chain' pharmacies near us that aren't on our insurance prescription plan, so we have to pay thru the nose for her script...or else drive 30 miles to Wallyworld to have it filled.
