I was assigned to shop an Albertson's grocery store yesterday. When I arrived at the location I noted there were banners flying in the air. I then noticed that the sign had been changed to SAFEWAY. Anyway, I attempted to submit the report advising that the location was no longer an Albertson's. I could not submit the report without responding to all the questions that had no pertinence since the store was gone. I took pictures of the store, the signs, the street address printed on the store. All that was needed for POV.
The MSC (no brainer) is now telling me that Kroger owns the property and that I can perform/submit the shop on Safeway. WTF. I fulfilled my obligation, no? Would you have completed the shop if the location had changed hands and name? I can find no indication that Kroger has anything to do with Albertsons/Safeway merger. Every thing states the two are competitors.
I wouldn't be complaining about the push for a re-do as this market is within walking distance to my house, but I simply can't squeeze this into my schedule for the next couple days. Hence, my wanting to fight the MSC on pushing me to re-do.
Shopping up and down the Colorado Rocky Mountain front range.
