this is after making the unions agree to wage cuts and wage freezes plus loss off personal time, sick and vacation. But the big guys in the top end of the company still get their bonuses. Next week one of the busiest sales week for supermarkets (Sunday thru Wednesday) labor has been cut drastically.

With so few Super Fresh and Pathmarks left in South Jersey, chances are the seashore locations will be sold for big bucks and the remaining just shut down. Sam Martin should come to every store and tell us what the A&P intentions are, if he has any kind of decency. Every employee is very, very upset!!!
