Here I was thinking it would be a nice, quiet, boring Wednesday, me stuck at the front all day and being bored to death. Haw haw haw.
I'll start with the less dramatic one, it's one that makes me mad.
Depends Lady
She comes up to my register and asks if I can exchange X Depends for Y Depends (basically same price except smaller package). LP Guy comes flying up and asks what I'm doing. When I say she's exchanging these depends, he says "No she's not." He gives his usual speech and checks her receipt and then frowns at her and tells her that next time she needs to come up to exchange those, first thing. I'm apologizing to her and she accepts it and seems humbled.
30 seconds later, I see LP guy carting her off towards another aisle, I'm assuming to apologize to her. About half an hour after that I go to the bathroom and see the bag of Depends plus 2 eye masks sitting on the LP console table. Lady did steal the Depends after all and also stole 2 eye masks on top of it. I was STEAMED when I found out.
Pint Sized Knife Hijacker
Aid of Rite sells electric pumpkin carving knives, looks like a bright orange electric steak knife but smaller. The thing goes at an incredible speed and makes lots of noise and, obviously, is VERY sharp.
9 year old boy was caught stealing one. I was at the register and all of a sudden this kid SCREAMING at the top of his lungs and begging LP guy and group of managers around him that he'll never do it again and let him go and I swear and I need to go home now and hyperventilating and crying and saying how his life was over and his parents would never let him out again and he would kill himself and his parents would kill him. He said he found the package opened and he wanted it but didn't have enough money for it. He screamed LOUDER when he was taken outside and LP guy was dialing a number into the phone.
However, kid wasn't arrested, he was taken back home by manager and delivered into the hands of his parents.
=/ Man, if he had gotten away with it? Expulsion, legal compensation on our butts?
