SuperMaxi Las Americas, supermarket

For more than 10 years I have shopped at one or more of these good grocery stores until a serious accident on wet tile caused a serious fall where I live, leaving necessity for 24 hour care for 9 months and for a cane. Now I am able to shop again using an electric cart or walking behind while holding onto a grocery cart bar. This requires the assistance of a paid caretaker or Facilitator with the $100+ purchase.

However, every week melons and much other in produce and the rest of the store are blocked by large boxes in aisles. Today was more difficult than usual as stock boys at LasAmercas store were working in front of what I needed even more so and also would not move boxes, etc,, taking much more time in disabled advanced age of others as well.

Years ago the restocking was done at night at our supermarket so that stock boys and stock blockage did not interfere with shopping of very busy customers with little time. (If you don’t respect customers’ time you don’t respect them.) Has a night shift for restocking shelves been tried here?

Having been accused of considering only my needs, it seemed appropriate to mention having given much to the under privileged and poor from a lifetime of hard-earned simple living. If you were in the condition of all elderly customers as I mentioned, and could not access certain stock boys while... Read more 0 0

Can you do something else besides praising yourself how high-and-mighty you are? I am sure many of us foreigners are donating our time, money, used clothing, food items, etc., etc., but we don't go around talking about our good deeds awaiting praises. Maybe you should realize you are not as... 0 0

How much you have given to pedestrians and the poor here and round the world is irrelevant regarding your complaint about Supermaxi. I've never EVER had any problem at Supermaxi or anywhere else asking store personal for help with a big smile on my face and kind voice. They always... Read more 0 0

You have no idea of all I have given to pedestrians and the poor here and round the world. I see no response here regarding my recommendation for night shift re-stocking. 0 0

Maybe, Karen, you could: 1. Stop thinking the world should revolve around your needs and desires; 2. Speak to SuperMaxi management; and/or 3. Shop at a different SuperMaxi as the Las Americas is notably smaller than the newer ones - such as Don Bosco or the revamped El Vergel stores. 0 0

I find this post to be a bit “off” and the writer completely off-putting. 0 0

This is the same person who advertises 1-2 per month since years looking for a male facilitator with SUPERIOR English and Spanish knowledge to do couple of hours work per week for her. I am wondering if she has any idea why nobody wants to work for her long term?... 0 0
