Ok, so i was on my way home last night with a friend, and i mentioned that we should stop for ice cream or hot cocoa or whatever she likes on cold nights, so we stopped at a drug store.

So, we look at the fliers.. ice cream is on sale: 2/$5.00..so we pick 2 and go to the register. It rings up as over $6.00.. Here is my convo with clerk

Me 'I think that rang up wrongly' and i showed the clerk the flier.
Clerk 'Maybe the mint chock chip wasn't on sale..'
Me Can you find out
Clerk It rang up for $4.10
I looked at another employee who was within earshot. No response
Clerk Looks at me with a blank stare
Me Can i just take the $2.50 one? (at this point i knew she was a fvcktard)
Clerk.. Voids the wrongly priced one and gives me my change THEN.. Says to ME..can you put this back where you got it
Me 'You,re kidding right? You have people that work here that do that...'

The girl i was with is appauled at the clerk and giving the Clerk the cold stare and was about to go off on her.. i had to pull the bag with the ice cream in her hand to pull her away from the register and out of the store into my car... lol

I hate making scenes, and I hate trying to battle where I know its just a waste of my time. I could have got the Mint Chock Chip for $2.50 if i challenged it, but i was so upset at how stupid this girl was and how she lacked common sense, but more importantly, why this big drug store chain, doesn't train there employees at all...

THAT WAS MY FIRST RANT.. pretty good one too i think :)

Yeah - sometimes it is unbelievable how moronic some people can be. You should've let your friend lay the smackdown though. :p

all the spare workers got outsourced to india. they figured out how to increase worker productivity by 9.9% by having the customer do the work. maybe that worker was chained to his cash register and didn't want to lose his job and go back to Sprawl*Mart
