Obviously the greengrocer is indifferent to the semantic content of the slogan on exhibit; he does not put the slogan in his window from any personal desire to acquaint the public with the ideal it expresses.
The greengrocer would be embarrassed and ashamed to put such an unequivocal statement of his own degradation in the shop window, and quite naturally so, for he is a human being and thus has a sense of his own dignity.
She did it more or less without thinking, just as our greengrocer did, and she could do so precisely because she was doing it against the background of the general panorama and with some awareness of it, that is, against the background of the panorama of which the greengrocer’s window forms a part.

 EFFORT LAUNCHED TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE IN GREENGROCER INDUSTRY
Labor leaders working in the greengrocer industry agree that the code has raised standards in participating stores and has had a ripple effect, improving conditions even in stores which have not signed the code.
The Attorney General's Office is interested in speaking with employees of greengrocer stores, with the possibility of bringing cases against employers who continue to violate the law, and recovering back wages for workers.
Greengrocer employees who wish to report labor law violations should call the Greengrocer Code of Conduct hotline at (800) 729-1180.

 Landmark Code Of Conduct To Improve Working Conditions In The Greengrocer Industry
State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer today announced a landmark Greengrocer Code of Conduct which his office crafted together with representatives of store owners and store workers to govern the treatment of workers at greengrocer stores in New York City.
Store owners who sign the Greengrocer Code of Conduct pledge to comply with state labor laws, provide specific employee benefits, and submit to unannounced monitoring of their employment practices.
The Attorney General’s office agrees to refrain from investigating past civil wage and hour violations by participating employers who sign on before December 31, 2002 and who are in current compliance with the law.

 The Greengrocer
Such grammatical excellence meant that I was noticed at the local round table and I soon outstripped all kinds of butchers, bakers and light bulb sellers.
He squeaked at me: "Oi, why not get your outlandish yet enticing views on Wycombe published." I relaxed my grip, it was the chance he needed, and he slipped out, kicked me in the broccoli and ran off.
We built up a good rapport and I like to think that one of the reasons he came to Wycombe was the high standard of greengrocering I introduced him to the area.

 Word Spy - greengrocers' apostrophe
And usual big business policy is counter-balanced by the widespread use of the greengrocers' apostrophe, which sneaks into everything from apple's to yam's.
But the greengrocer's apostrophe is commonest in handwritten signs and greengrocers are prominent among those who often have to write quick, informal notices for public display.
The greengrocer's apostrophe is most often found on signs outside shops on goods for sale: "Tool's reduced"; in shop windows: "Sales assistant's wanted"; and on public noticeboards, especially in personal advertisements: "Lawn's mowed at competitive rates".

LEAD: ''Beijing Watermelon,'' Nobuhiko Obayashi's new Japanese film, is a sentimental but never a convincingly sweet tale about a Tokyo greengrocer who nearly bankrupts the family business by helping a succession of poor Chinese students.
The film will be shown at the Museum of Modern Art today at 6 P.M. and tomorrow at 8:30 P.M. as part of the New Directors/New Films series.
Shunzo, the greengrocer, begins by selling the students vegetables at cost.

 SSRN-The Potential for State Labor Law: The New York Greengrocer Code of Conduct by Matthew Bodie   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
While labor law academics bemoan the ossification of federal labor law, the potential for state labor law has just begun to be explored.
The Code, negotiated by the New York Attorney General's Office in conjunction with groups representing workers and greengrocers, provides a set of minimum terms and conditions for grocers which to some extent go beyond statutory requirements.
The Article also considers how similar agreements might be used in the future to address widespread employment law violations in industries sensitive to consumer pressure.

 LINGUIST List 4.61: The Greengrocer's apostrophe
I can't see what the greengrocer's apostrophe has to do with the use of "that's" as an alternative to "whose".
The former is a matter of spelling, but the latter has nothing to do with spelling - we're not debating whether we should write "The pencil that's lead is broken" or "...
A second common device, along with the wayward apostrophe, is the use of quotation marks (inverted commas) as a typographical means of emphasis.

 Workers World May 13, 1999: Immigrant greengrocer workers organize
A goal of the May 1 protest was to put greengrocers on notice that owner abuse of immigrant workers--including harassment, threats of deportation, arbitrary discipline, and non-payment of wages--will not be tolerated by local residents.
We cannot keep shopping at these greengrocers knowing that the workers are exploited," said a representative of the area's Community Labor Coalition.
Community representatives delivered messages at greengrocers along the march route warning that owners have two weeks to recognize Local 169 as the workers' union, or residents will take their buiness elsewhere.
