9.1% unemployment but every business we go into is understaffed. Explain that one [View All]

My wife and I started our day yesterday at Kohl's. Had a $10.00 gift card we received in the mail off anything we buy so we went to look at the shoes. I need a pair of shoes and figured I would get myself a pair of shoes for Fathers Day. Looking at the shoes and the box they came in my wife and I started looking for the COO(Country of Origin,) label and neither of us could find one after 5 minutes of looking. So we were going to ask someone where they were made. There was no one to ask. Only workers we could find in this store were the two people at the checkout who were busy as hell running peoples credit applications for a Kohl's in store credit card to get 30% off their purchases.

Never did find out what the COO was for the shoes but that is for another thread. Figured Kohl's can kiss my ass if they don't want to have enough employees to answer a question or two. We left without buying anything. And we won't go back. Cheap bastards.

Went out for lunch and found the same thing there. There was one waitress in the entire restaurant. And that appeared to be like they normally operated. I noticed the same lady who greeted and seated us was busing the tables after people left. Our drinks sat on the bar for about 15 minutes until the bartender finally brought them out to us. Not the waitress. I seen the bartender bringing out peoples meals because the one waitress was busy doing other stuff.

My wife and I discussed this on the ride home. Got to pay good money for bad service because the owner is too cheap to have a large enough crew to do the job right? No, that isn't happening any more. Won't go back to Kohl's and we will not be eating out much if at all any more.

Anyone else noticing this?
