I left Wfm earlier this year. Don't miss the stress and disillusionment at all. It's not the same company at all that it was when I started 6 years ago. Sad.

Whole foods reports their loses today. Wonder if they will close anymore stores?

It seems no research goes into opening these money-wasting beauty spas, cooking classrooms, food trucks, pubs, etc. Whole Foods needs to develop a perfect working store model and use it to open new stores instead of trying to be unique. Customers are... — read more
