      Ngl I stocked up a little (literally one extra pack) on TP and cleaning supplies because shortages were gonna happen again from panic buying

        I just meant the hoarding, I work retail and that shit was so annoying last year having to deal with the masses of people making a run on toilet paper and bitching at us when we ran out.

          Fucking sucks to be in any service industry right now.

          May you have the strength to not beat your customers with the last remaining bottle of laundry detergent.

            I'm kinda surprised I never got in trouble with management for telling some of the worst offenders to just go fuck themselves and shop somewhere else. I have a feeling they've just been humoring the complaints knowing they want to do the same thing.

    Yeah, we didn't change anything after the last time so this shit is going to repeat itself.

      I don't hoard, but one of the secondary impacts of the virus that I've been dreading is if an outbreak occurs at some sort of utility plant. Water treatment is high on that list because they're dealing with waste products from COVID patients. Hoarding that makes more sense than hoarding toilet paper to me.
