Grocery curbside pickup made popular by pandemic likely here to stay
Lindsay Sandmann is a busy mom.
After a day of yard work and schooling for the kids, she was in a time crunch before the end-of-day shopping rush.
To save time, Sandmann visited Buehler s website and shopped virtually for her groceries. This is my second time using a curbside pickup, said Sandmann, sitting in her parked SUV at Buehler s Milltown in Wooster.
She first used the service in the fall but hasn t given it much thought until today, she said.
Curbside pickup, which is also offered in Coshocton, is a blessing for Sandmann. Not only is it convenient after a long workday, but she also doesn t feel the stress of shopping with her energetic children who occasionally get into trouble.
Saturday, Nov. 14, started like any typical day for Jennifer Williams. After breakfast and two cups of tea, an email and social media check and a shower, she made the 35-minute trek south from the Morrow County home she shares with her husband, Scott Bowman, to open the doors to Weiland’s Market at 10 a.m.
That afternoon, as Williams was taking a customer s Thanksgiving order, she saw a man come in without a mask. For Williams, a staunch proponent of face coverings since the earliest days of Covid-19, that was a no-no.
Weaving her way through the Clintonville store to find him in the deli department, she could hear customers pleading with him to put on a mask. A sign at the Weiland s entrance says face coverings are required, and messaging throughout the store leaves no doubt the issue is not up for debate. The exchange went like this.
DeWine signs bill modifying Ohio employment discrimination law
The Ohio Statehouse, Columbus
Ohio s employment discrimination law is closer to aligning with the federal government and other states across the country after Gov. Mike DeWine signed House Bill 352.
According to Republican sponsors Rep. George Lang of West Chester and Jon Cross of Kenton, the bill DeWine signed on Wednesday, Jan. 13, is part of an ongoing attempt to reform Ohio s employment discrimination statute, which they see as not friendly to business.
In testimony for the bill, Lang argued that a recent U.S. Chamber of Commerce survey found that 89% of respondents reported that a state s legal climate likely impacts where a company locates or operates. When that same survey finds that Ohio had 15th worst legal climate in United States, it becomes apparent changes are needed.
