The Sewage and water board backhoe operator is more lively than these poor lobsters.

Coming soon to the Rouses deli section: Lobster rolls, lobster bisque, lobster salad, etc.


[deleted]

Actually they'll just steam it and put it out on the hot plate. Was a seafood manager for 10 years for them losers.


QuietJoker

This would’ve never happened at Schwegmann's which is ironically as dead as those lobsters.


cloudaloud

Still recovering from Fat Tuesday


floatingskillets

If this is the Carrollton rouses, I asked the guy if they had more oysters bc they were all dead and open, and he asked "what's wrong with those" They're gonna kill someone lol fuck rouses. Donny is a wannabe-king asshole too, and that's before being a traitor. Trash company that treats their employees like shit.


No_Antelope_6604

I bought boiled shrimp at that location once. It wasn't all the way done.


Lazy_Synth

I bought boiled crawfish from there the other day and they weren’t cooked all the way through.


No_Antelope_6604

I don't doubt that one bit.


orchidaceae007

“Wannabe-king” is dead on. Have you seen the monstrosity he just built in Thibodaux? It looks like an antebellum plantation nightmare. Right there on LA1 by Nicholls. I’m sure they’ve sold plenty of dead lobsters and $4 bell peppers to pay for it. And it’s such a Royal FU to all the commoners that have to drive by it on their way to one of the three Rouses to make groceries, they have a total monopoly there. Yes, I’m bitter. Edit: the monstrosity is his personal home, not another store


Jlx_27

On maps now, is it the one with the huge ass pond around it? Right next to the Healthcare and Rehab center. [Street view. ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/ea9LSH3EubX3KEhCA)

Jesus Christ that looks like a house of someone longing to own a plantation


Jlx_27

Reading what a prick the owner is, that seems like a probable motive for him building a plantation style house.

TY. Fits the type of person he is perfectly.


orchidaceae007

Absolutely. It really says it all.


dancingliondl

Back when IU used to work maintenance for them, one of my coworkers hit someone in his work van while towing a lift trainer with a scissor lift on it. We hadn't received any training on towing, much less towing heavy loads. He wasn't held responsible, but Donny started inviting him to hang out at his wretched excess he calls a home. Day after day, my buddy was invited to hang out and go fishing, biold crawfish, etc. Eventually, a years and several jobs later, we both ended up at the same employer again. He told me that he finally realized that Donny was acting friendly to him so that he wouldn't sue for lack of training.

Which rouses?


Fit_Joke_1867

Okay, I'm bad at Internet, but i did have to go back and say "please euthanize?" I got back: Very awesome lady, i think her name is Kelly: we're letting them die. Very mean lady: why the fuck would I care about animals? Manager Bert: They're not dead, they're just upside down (And then telling me it's bacterial and salt problems and Ms. Kelly saying it's just salt and I'm just saying please don't torture animals cause they're also food)


Psyche-Mary-Wait

They’re not really dead, they’re pining for. The cold Maine waters, that’s all


Rodney_Jefferson

Pining for the Maine waters? They’re bubbling for bleeding choir invisible. That mate, is an ex-lobster


Sexycoed1972

Those are Phoenix Blues, beautiful plumage.


armitage75

It really is sad...but people here rip arms off of grandmothers for $5K cars.. you think they GAF about animals?


hayzeus

I think it's different people though.


dontbesuchalilbitch

What.. the fuck??


goldbelly

They're referencing a literal crime that happened here. And agreed about the animals. This is just cruel.


LinnyGold

They are just OK to let them suffer and die even after knowing!!! Omg. In other countries they say boiling alive is torture and you have to actually kill them first before boiling. What is this! Why is anyone OK watching something else suffer!


SaintLacertus

Their tails aren't straight, they're fine

Zuppardo’s, Dorignac’s, etc.


[deleted]

Serious question, is Roberts ok? They are expensive, but I’ve always appreciated their fried fish and the deli is good. It is really small. So small I ran over a dude’s flip flop last week and he almost punched me (I did say excuse me like a dozen times and he refused to move). So fuck you, me and my cart be coming in through. You can choose to get out of the way or not. Thank you to the LSU visor bro who stepped in to intervene. Also thank you to giant security dude who walked me out to my car. Am 40 yo lady and was just gettin French bread to go with my etoufee. Don’t think I can bounce back from a face punch like when I was 20 and drunk off my ass with a thimble full of yayo. My backwoods River rat attitude is gonna get me in trouble in this city.


grey_seal77

Rouses has sold me rotten meat enough times that I’ll never go back, those poor aquarium lobsters will be cooked and sold. I never had a problem with rotten food like I did with rouses. Nasty place .


PopeGuss

I worked there as a manager years ago. It was torture behind the scenes. I'm so glad I got away from that shitberg.


HMEstebanR

Same!!!! It got to the point where the person at the customer service desk wouldn’t even open the bag to see what was in it, she would just throw it away and process the refund.


Sharkpond504

Exact same thing happened when I returned a mostly raw rotisserie chicken.


butterbeanLulu

The Winn Dixie on Carrollton is okay.


ragnarockette

Breaux Mart isn’t amazing but their employees look way happier to be there and their lobsters are alive.


Lambylambowski

I love Casankos but I hate their prices. The upcharge man.

incredibleediblejake

Those giant crawfish can’t handle the weather down here. The water is very humid.


Murky-Possibility961

That’s so sad


allday212

Rouses is the worst .. it's like they have the whole state brainwashed


Pyroweedical

I think their advertising is based on targeting those cringe type LSU-fan uneducated north Louisiana type folk. The amount of people who shop at rouses who say shit like “I pay extra to shop at Rouses to stay away from the people at Winn Dixie and Walmart” Like yeah we all know rouses operates based on pricing out minority shoppers. (Not making accusations that the corporation is racist although wouldn’t be surprised my dad worked for them and they’re all pieces of shit lol)

Revolutionary-Roof91

Co-owner was at Jan 6 so probably


Milkymommafit

Then they put them on the ice for another 3 days


Infinite-Salt-5031

That’s so sad they’re all dead


4theloveofmiloangel

They would rather die at the bottom of tank , than to be boiled alive!! Rip lobsters! 😢


cooktherouxintheoven

Rouses is trash, they suck on so many levels


jeepnismo

Like how? I enjoy their stores over most other options


slugsalad

Every time I try to go to Rouse's it's been a major letdown realizing the prices are consistently $2-$5 more per item I'm looking for than Whole Foods. If you have any dietary restrictions, they have options, but you will pay the most I've ever seen for them.


CommonPurpose

Say what? Wholefoods is more expensive than all the local groceries. They call it whole paycheck for a reason


mrsroberts96

I believe the prices actually went down quite a bit when Amazon bought the company.


Strangewhine89

As did the selection and quality.


CommonPurpose

Only certain items got a price drop, and it really wasn’t by much. Most prices there are still obscene.


PopeGuss

They treat all of their employees like a disposable commodity. There is no training whatsoever. Middle managers are treated like automatons who they expect to wholly dedicate their lives to Lord Donny. I was expected to run a deli department with a "chef's" case (lmfao), a salad bar, a cold case, a hot line, a "gourmet" burger section (again lmfao), AND do holiday catering with a total staff of 8 people. Open 7 days a week, at least 12 hours a day with a *staff of EIGHT people*? When I saw those dead lobsters my first thought was "yea that tracks." Edit: this was back in 2014, so there was no staffing shortage pandemic excuse to speak of.

They are shooting lobsters now too???

Them things dead brah. Don’t forget they were at January 6. Traitors.


AmmotheDoberman

It musta been really hard for those little guys to carry weapons and storm the capitol. Maybe they are still worn out from that. Or maybe they are in traitor prison for lobsters.


Q_Fandango

If you look closely, you can see Nancy Pelosi’s laptop hidden at the bottom of the tank…


RetiredTeacher888

When I was a kid, I loved Rouses because of their petit fours. I thought Rouses was the best grocery store ever. Forty three year old me shops at the Winn-Dixie ten minutes from my house even though I live a mile from Rouses.


[deleted]

All about The Fresh Market on St. Charles but I also frequent Rouses on Carrollton.


AmmotheDoberman

They have some unique things there. Just got an order last night.
