I usually love Trader Joe’s and have always had wonderful experiences shopping here, but unfortunately my last visit was very disappointing. I came in last week with my young daughter, and an older white haired gentleman who was working at the sample station was extremely rude to her. He actually snatched the sampler out of her hand and gave us a very hostile look, as if we had done something wrong, when in fact, we hadn’t even said a word.
This behavior was uncalled for and made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. It was especially upsetting for my daughter, who was simply excited to be at a store she usually enjoys. The interaction came across as discriminatory, which was very disheartening to experience in a place I’ve always trusted.
I hope management takes this feedback seriously, as no customer — especially a child — should ever be treated this way.
