What kind of SICK PSYCHOPATH would ever think that shitty Hostess cupcakes would EVER be an appropriate replacement for delicious Entenmann's pastries???

They're both enormously over processed and extremely bad.

They don’t really try in my experience

They have no incentive to try. They have every incentive to get through every order as fast as possible. They don’t get paid more for doing a “good” job so why bother?

Is this what personal shoppers are doing now, manipulatively try to upsell? although I'd imagine the entenmanns would cost a lot more than the hostess.

I've seen the personal shoppers at the store when I was buying groceries. They fly through the aisles as quick as possible, presumably so they can take as many orders as possible. If they don't see what was on your list within 5 seconds of looking for it they will tell you it's out of stock

Fair enough but look at the OP picture. How could the personal shopper not have seen the item, it's literally in the picture, right there on the shelf. Looks like they even touched it and moved it because it's crooked & halfway hanging off the shelf.

okay but silly me now I realize this was probably a joke. making fun of personal shoppers.

Because frankly, most people are idiots.
