The Publix on Ocala rd in Tallahassee, where I work, was voted in a Playboy poll as one of the top 10 places to meet someone, giving it the nick name of ‘club pub’. I have been observing this for the few months I have been working there. Just yesterday I witnessed a guy come up to a girl and say “Hi, my name is Ron” She responded with her name and shook his hand. He then asked if he could call her sometime and unfortunately for him, she declined. I do not see interactions like these as much as I would have thought for a place that made a Playboy’s Top 10 list. When it really seems like ‘Club Pub’ is on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Publix gives cash back after making a transaction so everyone comes in to get a little cash so they can pay their cover wherever they are going. These nights are my favorite to work. We know that college students like to pre-game before going out so it is not uncommon for a group of drunken girls coming in the store to get a little money. I have seen people dancing through the aisles, singing, and just being obnoxious. Everyone is all dressed up in skimpy little dresses and high heels. Sometimes the guys working will try to hit on these girls and help them take their groceries out to their car even if it is just a single bag. If it’s a weekend night and I can’t enjoy going out myself, Publix is the place I like to be!
