      It sounds like it’s a long-running practice that they just temporarily suspended, so I imagine that it’ll look basically the way things do today.

      The outlet noted that the move is a revival of the practice, which was suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic over safety concerns.

        One thing to consider is the difference in volume today compared to during the pandemic. Not too sure if corporate employees can hide in the back for 8 hours. lol

          They don’t even hide in the back though, they just congregate in the middle aisles with their crystal clean orange aprons, sleek haircuts and chat about nonsense shit all day.
