That's atleast better than picking up a product and leaving it somewhere else because you decided that you didnt need it anymore.

What if, in this case, the 'somewhere else' is in the bin? Or just randomly chucked through the ceiling tiles?

A sort of fruit based 'paint ball' would surely stop them from importing US produce.

That’s not fair to the workers in the store. It’s not management that’s cleaning up.

At least it is not a task the bosses can automate. Some job security there.
