Hoping this Woolies strike continues into Christmas tbh. Make then feel it

Agreed

I went in yesterday and was kinda surprised by how much stuff was still on the shelves at my local store. I do wish there was some way we could redirect the Karen's away from yelling at the poor people working the store, and instead getting them to have a cheeky punch on with the CEO lady. I'd paid to see that

Karens vs CEO, you know what, it couldn't be any worse than the Jake Paul v Tyson fight.

I keep hearing about the Woolies strike, but I honestly haven't noticed a difference in store so far. Maybe I will with tomorrow's shop? Or maybe WA is immune to it.

It's a Victorian distribution centre where the strikes are happening, I suspect WA would have their own separate centres given the distance from coast to coast, so unless their workers join the blockade there probably won't be much interruption there.
