I would have made it my goal in life to give that person what they asked for.

By the way, in many states, conduct like that could be considered the equivalent of quitting the job and they just may NOT be eligable for unemployment insurance.

Chuck,
I have two stories for you.
One. We took my two sons to Dick's Sporting Goods for soccer and track shoes last weekend. Picked the wrong day as this was the day when about 100 baseball families were there to get new shoes. One guy working his tail off to get to everybody. Never broke a sweat, never got short with anyone. Fast and efficient. Called the manager to let him know what a great job the guy had done.
Two. Stopped by Wally World on the way to soccer game today to pick up a few things. Got them and went to the register that had a customer finishing her purchase. Unloaded the cart onto the belt and walked up to the end of the register. The cashier stepped back so the janitor could empty her trash and then talked to him for about 30 seconds - she has not said a word to us. The janitor empties her trash and comes back with the can so she lets him in - still has not acknowledged us. He leaves and she starts counting her cash drawer! Still has not even looked at us. After two minutes of this we just walked out. My oldest son stood there and said, loudly, "What about our stuff?" I replied that we would go somewhere that wanted our business. He was standing right across the counter from the cashier. She did not even look up at him.
With a new Target about the same distance but easier to get to I think I may have just gone to Wally World for the last time. I am waiting until Monday to call the manager to see if I can get the big guy. Her badge proudly said she was a 10 year employee. Can you imagine staying in business for even 10 days with customer service like that?

James,
No I cannot. However your stories only underscore my point. I'm sorry it happened to you. We have a Wally World here too. I have been in it three times since it opened 10 years ago. What does THAT tell you?
