Day After Thanksgiving Hysteria

Today is NOT the day to open up a f*cking JC Penney charge card when there is a line of 30 people behind you with their arms full of packages who have been up since 5:30 am standing in line for 30 min already waiting to check out, THEN dispute every price on the your reciept!!!

If you are going to bring your entire freaking family to the store with you to go shopping, please do not all slowly walk side by side completely blocking off the aisle.

When you're crossing my path in a store, please do not come to a pointless complete stop like a deer caught in headlights and gaze aimlessly out into space, forcing me to walk around you.

No, I will NOT hold your place in line while you run off to grab ten more items.

Thank you.

Yes, some loser really did that this morning. She was from out of town and didnt have her Penneys card with her. So she asked the cashier to look up her account number in the register. The cashier couldnt find any account in her name so she asked to open a new one and get a temporary card. Then she started questioning all the prices on her reciept. I was ready to knock her out.

Actually, I'm guilty of this one quite often, but only when it becomes apparent that the person whose path I'm crossing (don't forget, you're crossing MY path at the same time) isn't going to make an effort to get out of MY way. So I simply stop dead in my tracks, let the person walk around me, and then I go on about my business. It beats the hell out of going into one of those annoying "shall we dance?" moments...

Do Kawanzaa -- an African American spill on Christmas -- give gifts made with your own hands. It could make your Christmas shopping alot less hectic and you may even save a little too. biggrin
