This is what a boycott looks like: (picture heavy)

60. I've been a customer off and on for forty years (obviously not when I was abroad).

I used to patronize the franchise when it was called "Demoulas" (before the big dust-up between the family factions that resulted in the creation of Market Basket).

I wouldn't think of crossing that line--it would be like betraying family, and that is what all the workers are like--they're friends, people we see a couple of times a week. I can't turn my back on 'em.

That, I think, is what these corporate nitwits who haven't been involved in the day-to-day management of the business do not understand. Before the workers even went out, customers were aware of what was going on, the discontent brewing, and were going up to the manager in the store where I shop and telling him they've got his back. I joined that queue. I said the same to the cashiers I know.

I'll only go there to put my shitty Stop and Shop receipt on the door! I may do that tomorrow!
