Why would they do such a stupid thing?

I stopped at Albertson's grocery store tonight after work. They have a stamp-collecting deal going, you get one stamp for every $10 that you buy and you can trade books of coupons in on Thomas Hard Anodized Cookware. Tonight I was going to redeem my first set and get about 2/3rds of the cost of a 11" wok-like thing with a glass lid. I walk in the store, go to the back, and there are pallets of goods blocking every end cap. Naturally the display with the pots and pans are on an end cap. There were no pallet jacks around, and very few employees around, so I shoved it out of the way and got my pan.

WHY would you pull out the re-stock pallets at 6:15PM?! That is a heavy shopping time, very bad planning on someone's part. I'd've loved to seen what the person said when they realized that their pallet had been shoved out of the way, probably something like "What an asshole!"


Oh, if you happen to shop at Albertson's and don't need the stamps, I'm gladly accepting donations....
