I worked in the produce department at food lion when I was 18. My produce manger showed me the ropes, ordering and stuff. He then transferred to another store. I took over ordering because I enjoyed it and I knew my store really well. New store manager thought I was just a dumb kid and he should do the order for a huge sale on bagged red potatoes. He screwed it all up and did basically the same thing. It took us weeks to get rid of half the potatoes and we ended up throwing the rest away.
