Ehh, I used to work retail and do signage for my department. The amount of time spent on signage in a day wouldn’t have noticeably changed the bottom line. The extra 30 minutes we would have gained per department would have been spent on cleaning and restocking. When one person staffs your department at open, it’s not like you can go to zero because they don’t need to change price tags.
Fucking the customer and protecting them against mislabeled prices are the real wins there.
What changed the bottom line is having to pay employees to do it. I also used to work retail, and if you never had to do this, then you could probably have a least one less person on per shift

we already had 1 person on that shift, this one doesn’t go to zero.
I’m sure Walmart only has one person working at a time
In jewelry before open… yup.
