White Hen's New Management

[plumtreeblossom.livejournal.com]

I feel just horrible for talking smack about the upscale White Hen in Ball Square earlier today, because I just found out the scoop about its management change. The store has been taken back by corporate, and according to the clerk, the takeover was not by choice of the family who were running it. There was a new clerk or possibly manager there as well, who seemed to have been "air lifted" (as my boyfriend put it) in from corporate. I wouldn't be surprised if more than just the family have lost their jobs.

I completely apologize for everything unkind I said about their unconventional inventory choices. The family was trying to do something different, and whatever the details are in this situation, I hope they're going to be okay.

Interesting...that's not the story he told my mom last week. I didn't find the owner rude, but there was one girl there, his daughter I think, who was regularly rude to customers. In general though...I have had good clerk experiences there.

Yeah, I've never had a problem with them.. And I love their selection of fresh veggies and locally baked bread...
