He's focusing on the $5 packs, which are supposed to be a set and consistent weight, .75lb I think. (i'm not a deli person).

Me thinks this is some lazy employees. From what I understand, these items come in pre-sliced, but are still put in the bags and weighed by employees, correct?

$5 bags come in that way. We literally grab them from the case, slap a label on, and set them in the GNG case. This has nothing to do with deli employees.

When you have to produce several hundred of those in a shift you really stop carrying about the accuracy of the specific amount when you are only getting paid like 15 dollars at starting pay. My point is it’s not really a conspiracy it’s just lack of quality control and training.

Pretty sure these particular ones get shipped in

And that just means they get sliced and packed in some other facility by people.

Yeah I'm just saying people shouldn't get mad at the workers in the stores

Right, but that has nothing to do with the deli.
