Leaving things they decided they don't want just wherever in a store. It's annoying as a customer, because now I have to dig through their mess to get the product I actually wanted, and even moreso as an employee.
At least put it back in the right department. The underpaid employees who have been there since before the store opened for the day really don't want to have to play the game of "How long has this ground beef been sitting in a produce basket, and how much product did we just lose?"
I think there's some misconceptions about this that need to be cleared up. If you don't want it and you've already moved away from the section, the best thing to do is take it to the register and say you don't want it. Then what typically happens is it gets put in a take-back cart and the employees take care of it
No, it's not. People often forget where they got it from, and it might have been in the wrong place to begin with or already expired. Take it to the front.
Sincerely, someone who worked at a grocery store
