Do you know how many computers and people this had to be scanned and pass through to end up on that shelf, and not one of them noticed.

You know it was in a cardboard box from the factory to the shelf, right?

True it materialized in the box and wasn’t seen by a single thing until this picture.

Right, because automated manufacturing lines don’t exist.

Okay but let's talk about the employees who put things on shelves...

EDIT: I don't know retail for beans and this comment proves it 😄

It’s tray packed. They ripped off the excessive cardboard, slid the box on the shelf and moved on. The whole thing took 10 seconds.

That wraps it up for me, then. I should have known anyway, I used to pack those for General Mills.

if it was found in the middle of the box, they are not going to notice

They put this packet on th shelf with their hands touching it and with their eyes looking at it, both in their hands and on the shelf. There is a very small chance they didn't notice it being empty

Here in Russia I saw people do it manually, so I assumed it's done like this everywhere. My mistake

Good point and I was also thinking minimum wage apathy. Stockers can't be making enough money to really care about one empty bag.

They aren't paid enough to give a damn even if they noticed

The real definition of Open Sesame.

Poor quality control is tantamount to theft.

I don't get why it's even remotely infuriating? It's not like you bought it. Manufacturing flaws happen, their PPM is probably like 1 and you found the 1.
