since I accidentally deleted this once..let's try again!
some background: I am a compulsive straightener. I always face/straighten shelves when I'm in stores. This is especially bad in Blockbuster (used to work there) and Target (closest grocery store). This combined with my hatred of people being lazy and leaving crap/trash in aisles usually has me cleaning as I go. Also I like to shop in the last hour before Target closes so usually the aisles have been cleaned already and I just feel back for making more work .
So last night I was doing my thing in Target with my 1 y/o son (sleeping in his carseat..nice!) I happen to be following this other mother and her child (maybe 2ish?). Not on purpose but we just happen to be going to similar things and she was first..it happens. This woman was disgusting! She was eating some sort of fast food and starbucks and leaving her trash on the floor, in the aisles, anywhere but the trashcan. Her son was also tossing Cheerios and whatever on the floor but hey he's super young I can understand. So as I'm going along I'm straightening my holes (and hers if they're nearby) and getting annoyed by the trash. So I pick it up and throw it away at the end of the aisle and move along. We do this dance for a couple of rows and then she flips!
L: What the HELL are you doing?!?!?
Me: um...grabbing some cookies? (mmm...Milanos)
L: No! Why are you picking up MY trash?!?! Do you work here or something?!
Me: oh..no. I don't. I just usually throw trash away when I see it. Was it yours? I didn't even notice whose it was.
L: Why would you do that?!? It's THEIR (points to a passing employee) job to take care of it. Not some FREAK () like you!!! *procedes onto EW rant I always tune out*
Now she is standing right in front of me. Her yelling and flailing are not only attracting stares but wakes up my son who starts to cry. His crying then causes her son to scream. Ugh. Great...Momma Bear is NOT happy!
ME: *interrupts* MA'AM! you are causing a scene and you woke up my son. WE ARE DONE HERE. Think what you want I don't give a fuck! (sorry kids) but I will continue to help out these guys because I would hope that someone would do the same for me and if that makes me a freak then awesome! Who wants to be a normal ass like you?
I walk away and continue my shopping..I have no idea what she did. I didn't see her until checkout and she walked by to leave while I was at the checkout. As she passed she glared at me and two steps later her son looks at me smiles and then says "ASSTH!! ASSTH! ASSTH" while clapping out the door. Oops .... I guess it's better than fuck?
I just know that Karma will get me back for that...I didn't do I on purpose!! *gives puppy eyes to Karma gods*
