re: Whole Foods Metairie, downhill

Re: hippie pride, yes.....I can remember the days when their employees were happy, highly visible, and knowledgeable. That hasn’t been the case for some time, and yesterday’s experience was on par with a suburban WalMart. No baskets collected, untidy store overall, and general meh customer service in departments and at checkout. Or maybe the Met location is suffering due to Trader Joe’s being so close? Dunno.
