holiday un-cheer

so, my first two holiday shopping experiences so far have been disasters. thanks to those retail employees who put up with this season, but SERIOUSLY best buy and joann fabrics. you guys suck.

best buy - i'm not sure why 32 days before christmas you're already cattle-prodding your shoppers into register lines that AREN'T working...AND THEN not letting them change lanes after 10 minutes of waiting for the "customer service representative" to acknowledge that we existed and that we were waiting for her to stop pounding on the keyboard to help us.

joann's - screw you. all i was asking was that you let me get 48, let me repeat....48, yards of fleece cut before black friday. this, by the way, was for a service learning project for elementary students at a school in your community....which i told you but i'm pretty sure you didn't hear since you were too busy being a jerk. i was asking this as a favor to you, really. now, you'll see me bright and early on friday morning being a total witch. i will do nothing to help you or your employees to enjoy their morning. instead of having those cut into 6 yards each (only 8 cuts) i will be making you cut them at a yard and a half. yep. now it will be 24 cuts. have fun. also, i will not be providing you w/ the tax exempt copy that you need. you can have one of your managers (who lie on the phone) to leave the register and get the copy him or herself.

happy holidays to you.
