Dude... ;_;
When I saw that, I already knew there was going to be a whole crapshow to read through.
There are so, so many awful parents out there that are perfectly okay for their kids to be raised like demonic livestock at Satan Ranch. I swear, it really begins to sound like a good idea for people to have to pass an exam before they're allowed to have children. Also, I feel like everyone should try working retail for at least three months so they get to know what it's like.
If I was an executive at Wal-Mart, I would enforce these policies:
- If a customer opens a package, they're expected to purchase it. Not doing so should be considered destruction of property. If the item is rendered in the same way that would cause it to not be accepted for a store return, it should be a forced purchase.
- Kids that are found isolated from their parents should be considered lost. Ask for the parents to pick little Timmy and Sally up using the loudspeaker so the whole store gets to know about how Ms. Parkinson can't freaking look after her own kids.
- If customers give staff a hard time over dumb, stupid nonsense, out they go. Those aren't people I'd even want as customers if every time they show up they think they're entitled to wreck the place and be disrespectful to the staff.
My sympathies go out to everyone who works retail. I haven't ever done it myself, but when I do shop at these places, I try to be as respectful and considerate as humanely possible, especially to the staff who are working long shifts, are tired at the end of the day, and probably have already been dealing with other customer nonsense.
