It started out pretty good, in fact I was
ok getting up and playing with the puppies in the freezing rain, IN my PJ's... that
didnt even get to me. I showered, got laundry done, and decided to go visit a friend to show them my demonic balls of fur (puppies) which of course were so well behaved in front of her... this
doesnt happen often so I had to take glee that neither them or
Kota tried to eat any random person. I fully expected a growl, or hair to go up on her back when she saw a certain person, but not one move, just really good. Which I expect from
Ko-Bunny, but sometimes she gets a little unhappy with people.
I tried to get the things done that I REALLY needed to... Dog food to be exchanged, and other items to be found.
Petcetera is the worst run operation I have had the misfortune of being near. I went in to the one close to me and asked if I could return a bag of food Shane bought, which was the wrong one. They told me no, they
couldnt take it back and only the store it was purchased from could take it back. They said it would mess up their inventory. It
didnt make sense, I felt it was a cheap excuse.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING?!! I left angry, hauling the 85 Lb bag of food with me.
I drove all the way to the NE location, off of 32
nd. Holy SHIT. I go up and tell the girl I'd like to return it, so I can buy a different one they
dont have at this location. Explaining my story as I went, she said oh just try to find it in the back ( I knew they
didnt have it, but I looked anyways). I came back up and she called her manager up to talk to me, they checked and checked but nope, no bag of food. Not the type I NEEDED. I KNEW THIS. No matter how hard I protested, they just said to try a different kind.
Does anyone KNOW what will happen if you change a dogs food? Lots and lots of shit. Its horrible for the dog, and even more for your sense of smell. Its not pretty.
I just insisted I get my refund and go to the store I KNEW ALL ALONG had what I needed.
Instead of a refund, the girl took money OFF my debit.
uHHH I noticed right away it said purchase, she insisted not, and after pushing to see the manager again, she called but gave the excuse that she might not come back so I should probably just go. Uh what ? You just fucked up, I purchased instead of being refunded? And now
Im not getting money for spending double the money, for NOTHING? FOR AIR MAYBE? Being almost livid at this point, and wanting to start going nuclear, I did my
pinchy angry face and did the death look only my Mother can perfect.
Manager and Regional Manager came up to assist in finding out what happened, and as the poor cashier (I actually feel bad for her) gave her untrained excuses on what happened. The 2 Managers seemed pretty choked, but the guy
didnt give me one apology.
WTF? You could say,
" Im sorry you've had such a hard time with our company today, please take my wallet and this pack of gum to make up for our redundant incompetence." Well ok maybe he wouldnt do that, and the nonexistent apology would have been sufficient. I should also mention, I was told
PETCETERA IS PETCETERA. Regardless of location, stores can exchange or refund. They were simply lazy and gave the inventory excuse.
I left, money refunded but my sense of trust for this company definitely missing.
I drove straight back to the NW Petcetera, walked my way to the back and grabbed the bag I needed. I came back up and found the girl who had previously denied me, who is morbidly obese and is never really IN the store, I usually see her outside smoking and hanging out with other loserish looking people, and informed her of my unfortunate situation, raised my voice and told her PETCETERA IS PETCETERA!! YOur Regional Manager has JUST told me SO.
She stared at the floor while another "employee" scurried up to the counter and told me she was right blah blah blah.
LISTEN, FUCKFACE, I AM THE CUSTOMER. YOU DO NOT TALK BACK TO CUSTOMERS!! I DONT CARE IF I SHIT ON YOUR COUNTER, YOU FUCK OFF AND SHUTUP.
I told him off, and walked out with my bag of food, as you cant get it anywhere else.
I was so lividly upset at this point when I stormed out to my truck. I got to my moms, to get the pups, when this dillhole in a Jeep Liberty gets upset at someone in traffic and decides to make a statement by speeding up and driving off as.fast.as.he.can. IN A FUCKING MUDPIT FULL OF ROCKS AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE ALLEY I WAS PULLING INTO.
Leaving my hood full of rocks and my windsheild FUCKED.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW MUCH I VALUE THAT HUNK OF METAL? MY KEY AIM IS TO KEEP IT IN AS BEST CONDITION AS POSSIBLE. NOT TO HAVE SOME MORON FUCK IT UP. Might I mention he lives one house over from my moms? I pulled up behind him and yelled as he got out of his Liberty, "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING? YOU JUST FUCKED UP MY HOOD?!!!"
He stared at me, and said "yeah sorry" shrugged his shoulders and went in his house.
I flipped out and went upstairs muttering obscenities at him and the world in general.
He came out as I was leaving and walked up to "give me a better apology". I ranted a bit in his face and drove off. I couldnt even deal with one more thing, one more person or one more peice of bullshit. I am so ready to crumble, explode or strip near naked and scream like a crazy banshee lady on the hood of someones car. IN THE RAIN.
Thats my day. Its not over yet, I fully expect rabid Butterquirrels to invade my house, devour my insides and drag my carcass back to Hell with them. If it could get any worse, please let me know.
=(
3 Minutes after writing this, I dropped my sandwich on the floor next to my computer.
NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! FUCK!!
