See my earlier story on them honoring their own policies. They have had all manner of internal problems for decades. I even heard once that the mob controlled their delivery/trucking. We will probably never know the full scope of just how bad it really was, but when you have to drive your competitors out of business just to stay in business, how much can it really be the customers fault? There is a reason why they say "The customer is always right." TRU forgot that a loooooooong time ago.
