  • Since when did we start selling live babies?

    A while back, some time last year I believe, it was mid-afternoon at the store and I was working with at least two other associates. So I finish something I have to do for the day and start putting things away when this man and his daughter approach me. I look up and smile then proceed to ask them what they needed. Turns out, the man didn't need anything. He told me there was a stroller by the TV service table (one of those TV companies trying to get you to buy into their shit). Weird. Probably some assclown just left a stroller there due to complete laziness. But I look into it anyway. Low and behold, I get closer to find out there is a BABY INSIDE! Dafuq?! So I whip around and practically scream at my associate to call management ASAP. About this time, the person working the TV service table comes back from his break (he'll be mentioned again later).

    Management comes out to see me standing by the stroller. They try getting in touch with our security so they can discover via security feed who had left the kid there. And thank GOD the kid was asleep the entire time. I'd hate to have a fussy toddler on my hands in addition to neglect. After some time, the man from earlier comes back and says that if we find out who left the kid there, he wanted to have words with her. So did I, and I was not shy about voicing it either.

    I guess there was a page or two made but since it was last year some time, I honestly don't remember. It got to the point that management was about to call the police. So they started walking back to their office when, guess what? Mommy dumb ass shows up! She claims she was "looking" at something and "forgot" the kid. Bitch, how the fuck do you leave your kid like that and NOT notice you're not pushing a big ass ORANGE stroller?! Even after the pages were made. Seriously?! I don't know if there was more said or not but I'm giving her the nastiest glare ever as she's walking away.

    And that guy I told you about? We've been good friends since then

    IMO she doesn't deserve to be a mother.

      After all the returns we got for selling dead ones it seemed like a good idea.

          Just as she's leaving, "Oh, the cops are on their way and want to talk to you. Yeah, I forgot that too.."

              You mean you didn't sell them as is?

                  We had that happen on Friday! The lady who stocks our OTC stuff in the evenings found it in a carrier, inside a shopping cart, in the cold & flu med isle. She and my boss were beside themselves and started freaking out just a little. Well, he was. She calmly pushed it to the waiting area in front of pharmacy, sat down on the bench and said "I found a baby! If no one claims it, I get to keep it, it's mine!" She must have sat there for ten minutes while boss made pages and called management. Right when the front end zone manager came up and was getting on his walkie, the Dad came rushing up to claim it, panicked. Apparently, he left the baby with his wife so he could use the restroom, and then she just walked away without it. Hopefully they'll both be more careful, the zone manager wasn't shy about telling this guy he was seconds away from calling the cops.

                  I commented to the people I was waiting on "You know, I don't have kids so I don't know everything about them . . . but how do you forget you have one?"

                  Lady shoots back "You DON'T." Lord, she was livid - she'd been waiting on meds to finish filling while all this was happening. I'm actually surprised she didn't chase the guy down and give him a talking to.

                  But seriously, how do you FORGET YOUR BABY?
                  The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

                    People do. Babies dies because their parents forget them, strapped into car seats.

                      There was a story about a month ago about a dad who had left his kid in the car when he went to work and honestly forgot about em. I'm thinking he must have been too new of a Dad to forget someone so critical.

                        I remember posting about what I saw last june/july here on an Army base. Car with officer stickers and the mommy thought that her "remote start" was going to be sufficient supervision for her child as she shopped.

                        No deaths. She came back to her car to find the base police breaking the windows open though. (which means she was gone long enough for someone to notice AND for the police to show up)

                          I actually feel really sorry for parents who honestly forget about their kids in the car. What other shit must be happening in their lives that they were so distracted? And now they have to live with the fact that they accidentally killed their own child.

                          However, if you are in a store with a stroller that you pushed n there...and is right in front of you...that's just stupid.

                            Sadly, this happens a lot here. And it's usually not people simply forgetting the kid. I have a former friend (for this and various other reasons) that told me that she did this with her first kid when the kid was alseep....because she didn't want to wake her up. I know of at least once at Target for over an hour. I told here she's lucky the police weren't called.

                            Our Governor ripped some guy a new one for leaving his kid in a unlocked, running car.

                              That's abuse, at least in Michigan it is. I called the police on a couple who left 5 kids alone, all under the age of 6. in the car, in the cold, for 25 minutes. The state police came. The state police rocked. This happened two weeks ago.
