I work inside WF all the time and NEVER see this - I am here on the weekends. No inventory issues in over 5 stores in DFW. — McCalla Stryker on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

As someone who works at Whole Foods. Our orders the past week have been doubled. We don’t have a night crew and our loads are coming in super late. So now we stocking until 7pm when our big rush is. Whole Foods needs a night crew and without it with any problems we are stuck stocking until late in the afternoon. We also have absolutely no room for back stock so it’s suppose to be truck to shelf. — Worker on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

I think I have an answer to your question about The View in Battery Park. A few weeks ago the Battery Gardens restaurant inside the Battery closed. Last year the city conducted an RFP for the space and presumably this is the vendor who won the bid to operate it. The Battery Gardens space (next to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal and the under construction Battery PlaySpace) is currently under renovation and is expected to open in the Spring. — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on Community Board 1 agendas for March

MAKES me wonder..Flu has killed 18,000 so far in US alone compare that to Coronavirus... 1 billion get flu each year and we have deaths in the hundred thousands.Why are we acting like this??? We are so controlled like pupoets.. — Kyriaki on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

It is true that people are being irrational right now because of the virus. However when you comment about trends you’re noticing in the story on a regular basis it’s because of amazon. They’ve cut labor budgets immensely across the board. They raised the minimum wage but then cut the money to actually pay people so there’s no hours. They have also added literal amazon work for WF employees to deal with, not amazon employees. Working there you are basically an amazon employee with a WF name tag. Amazon tech support, an amazon return desk, amazon prime sales person, amazon prime now shopper, etc etc on top of WF responsibilities. Thereby leading to a miserable shopping experience and a less than ideal work environment. The company isn’t what it used to be; amazon is destroying it faster than wild fire. — Nicole on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

Obviously there's a run on food supplies because everyone is freaked out..but WF has really cut back on the number of cashiers as well as they no longer stock the shelves early in the am before opening..so the aisles are often blocked by people restocking shelves...add in all the strollers and it's really hard to move around the store. My conspiracy theory is that they're trying to make the shopping experience so unpleasant that people will just have everything delivered. I looked around me while shopping there recently and I was the only person shopping for myself, all the other people were fulfilling orders for delivery. — julieW on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

The dried beans and rice set at WF recently changed vendors/warehouses so that's why that set was thin/empty for a while. Other items were definitely COVID. My local store was super busy - like holiday times busy - this past weekend because of the virus scare. — JL on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

I noticed this on Friday evening, but it appears to be worse now! Some, like me, were there to pick up a few things for dinner, while others looked to be preparing for an apocalypse and had carts full of water, pasta and other staples. WF has had some supply chain/stocking issues over the years (recently hardly any rice for weeks!) so I query if that is also an issue. — Lisa on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

Thank you for the efforts on this issue. Canal Street is a disaster area. I've lost count of the times I've nearly been run over crossing Canal. Then there's the incessant horn-honking, which multiplies everyone's stress levels and aggression. I hope part of the efforts at "calming" will be enforcement of the "no honking" laws of NYC....and that should be citywide. — Marcus on Community Board 1 agendas for March

Loved this interview. I have admired Mary's work over the years, and recently met this extraordinary textile artist.

And bear the consequences of poor retail management choices. It's audacious of them to expect their landlords to bail them out. And before someone whines about how landlords are gouging tenants, if you are going to say that retailers can sell what they want, then it follows that landlords can charge what they want. — Makes You Go "Hmm-m-m" on Seen & Heard: Business grants for storefronts south of Murray
