- DMDavid MorrisOct 13, 20251.0The Shaw’s in Montpelier is a vital part of the community — and like most grocery stores these days, it faces its share of challenges. From supply shortages to staffing gaps, it’s easy to understand that keeping everything running smoothly isn’t simple. Still, this location deserves credit where it’s due, especially for its commitment to hiring and supporting members of the special needs community. That kind of inclusion truly matters and should be recognized. That said, there are some serious issues that deserve attention. During a recent visit, I witnessed management and a couple of other employees standing in front of the registers clearly having a good time “smoking and joking,” while a single cashier — a person with clear disabilities — was struggling alone at the only open register. This employee was doing their absolute best but clearly needed help. Instead of support, they were left to manage a stressful situation on their own. Meanwhile, I couldn’t help but notice the ongoing challenges this store faces: shopping baskets routinely go missing (often taken by unhoused individuals), and there have been reports of other difficult incidents like overdoses in the restrooms. These are real community issues — and while Shaw’s can’t fix all of them alone, better management presence and accountability could make a big difference in how staff and customers experience the store. In my experience that day, I stepped in to guide the struggling cashier through a problem that clearly should have had supervisory attention. The lack of response from management was disappointing and, frankly, unprofessional. It’s one thing to face the challenges every grocery store deals with — but it’s another to let leadership standards slip right in front of customers. Montpelier’s Shaw’s has potential, and it has good people working hard inside. But it needs stronger management engagement and accountability to match its community values. With a little more leadership and care, this store could be a lot better for everyone who walks through its doors.
