Yeah, so fuck this store manager.

Why would you treat a 16 year old special needs kid this way? Way to make him jaded. I can’t imagine a jury would convict him.

I don’t quite understand this thing with preferring food is destroyed when it reaches “for sale” expiration. Especially when you’re not even letting your own employees have it. What kind of asshole does that?

With all of that having been said, good people will no doubt reach out offering opportunity and goodwill to this kid, and also bully the living fucking shit out of this store.

Name and shame that mofo. That makes my blood boil.

Meijer owns more that 500 grocery stores in 5 states along with these stores as well. Bridge Street Market (MI) Woodward Corner Market (MI) Capital City Market (MI) Rivertown Market (MI) Fairfax Market (OH) Independence Market (MI)

A former disabled employee said they deliberately target the disabled there so they can fire them.

I hate this! My Niece is bipolar & most of her bosses were POS! It got to the point where me & my Sis stepped in to record their actions. Caught one boss say “I hate having to be forced to hire “R” (derogatory for special needs) Got him fired. Sadly, it seems to be getting worse

Yes fuck that manager , he needs to be put on blast and shamed for his actions. Straight bitch move

And has anyone reached out to help him get a new job. Or help with his court case!

The throwaway bin should be available for anyone to take from. Anyone. It should be illegal to not allow people to take from a throwaway bin.

did anyone get a picture of the manager ...should blow him up and embarrass him for that .. unbelievable

It’s pronounced My-ur

Though Meijer dropped the charges on the kid and the manager got fired, I honestly wish this started a wider conversation about artificial scarcity in retail and food service

@Sweetbarbaralee Wish we could know the name &/or see the face of that dickhead manager. Meijer store should be ashamed of itself, also, for allowing this to happen. I had no idea he was taking food out of the trash bins. It makes his arrest even more unconscionable!

@meijer Is this the way you treat the disabled? Now I am happy you pulled out of our town.

So who is the manager?

what an absolute piece of shit society we have. poor kid

More than that. If the Owners don't immediately fire the manager responsible for this, then Meijer should be boycotted.

Fuck the Manager that got the disabled kid arrested and the way they waste food that can still be eaten before expiring date

He stole their waste. How messed up do you have to be to have someone arrested for that. May @meijer go out of business. #BoycottMeijer

I just want to ask 1 question.. If he was a black boy do y’all think we would have a lot of white ppl speaking up for him like a lot of black ppl are speaking up for this boy ? What was done to this young man was wrong I agree

And see room full of oyibo looking on like they could care less. That’s how they do. They don’t care about shit that doesn’t impact them and they want to see people suffer.

This is one of those cases where everyone should use their fucking discretion and offer to buy the hungry kid snacks wtf.

ill throw the kid $110. just run a damn tab fr

What makes it even worse is he was taking them out of the garbage.

That is so wrong! I will pay the f*@king store the $110!

Who is the a hole I need to speak with?

anyone got the managers name?

Not to be that guy... $110 in fruit cups... They average $3-$6... He ate 18-36 over two months... Of throw away product...

May-er!?

WHY ARE U NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PUNK ASS COP????????????????????????

@meijer FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF. You will never get a dime out of me. FIRE THE MANAGER!

Sounds like the manager hate disable folk. So he concocted this instead of just telling not to add wipe.

The pig is ALSO A POS. TALK ABOUT HIM, HE HAS MORE POWER THAN EVERYONE IN THAT STORE COMBINED

What about the officer???
