    Remember that shooting at Blackstone’s headquarters? They tried to blame the motive on football somehow but the shooter targeted the CEO of Blackstone’s real estate group, killing her along with a few others.

        It’s on the same level as dumping food in a dumpster and pouring bleach on it because it expires soon and so that hungry people can’t eat it.

        • An old manager got fired because she donated food to a homeless shelter when instructed to open it all and pour the liquids down the drain and the food into a trash can with the pink mystery cleaner whose MSDS mysteriously went missing in all the stores I went to.

          As with many things, it just served to further radicalized me.

            In a just world that would be a criminal act and your old manager would be doing something normal and unremarkable

            • Indeed. In a sane world, it would be standard practice to donate foods long before expiration dates and nobody would need to dig through garbage hoping for scraps of a meal.

              In this world though, The administrative assistant started donating everything and planned things strategically so the new store manager and district managers wouldn’t know, and anyone watching cameras would think we’re just helping her taking our normal trash out.

              She kept it up through 5 or 6 managers before I left. As far as I know, nobody ever caught on that the empty bottles by the sink were just what a few of the employees drank every day, or the wrappers often weren’t even products we sell.

              It’s insane the hoops some have to jump through just to donate food that nobody wants

      The gunman dying too was really too bad. Like Luigi Mangione being blamed as the shooter for the healthcare exec has kept the idea of murdering ceos more alive.
