Ok since I have to be nice to real people and if i don't get it out I will yell at my husband, have fun. MRS. Snotty head, big sunglasses, tammy faye wanna be, uppity tree hugger, Next time before you decide to chew someone's hinney in the parking lot about leaving a cart there you should think of a few things first. Like maybe it is 102 outside, and her young dd is in the car asleep. Maybe it is not really safe for the youngsters to be trapsing across the 102 degree parking lot like car magnets. I used to work there I know how crazy women in SUV's like you drive. Maybe the said "fit" young lady as you called her might be preggo and sicker then a dog, not to mention the RA that she has that makes it feel like her bones are on fire when she walks. Maybe you should try pushing a cart around with 2 kids a months worth of groceries for a couple of hours, instead of your little green bag full of wine and expensive cheese. Maybe if you are so worried about the stupid cart and how hard it is for the cart pusher to push it that far you should be nice and offer to take it up there yourself instead of pointing out how "inconsiderate and rude" I am for leaving it next to the curb in the boonies. Since they hired the guy to do just that one job, I guess that if i didn't leave it out there the poor kid would be out of a job right? I would hate to do that, he is actually quite nice and usually ask to help me and takes my cart in right then, but he was busy helping an elderly lady. But he did tell me that he would come get my cart in just a minute. SO THERE, YOU UPPITY LADY WHO HAS NO NICENESS IN YOU. Maybe you should just keep your comments to yourself and keep your big nose out of my business!!!!!! As for your last snide comment about me ruining the enviroment with "all those plastic bags, what a waste, tsk tsk tsk" I would like to tell you where you could put those "green" bags but I can't because that is not nice. I wouldn't mind using those bags, but when I can't afford to buy enough fruit for my kids I sure as hell am not going to waste my money on cloth bags to make you feel good. How many bags would I have to buy to put a month's worth of groceries in them? I probably pollute the earth much less then you do, because I don't use all that junk on my face and hair that you do!!!! AHH I feel better. When she was chewing me out, I just said OH, smiled and got into my truck. It took alot of biting my cheek, but I did it. I think she is just a rich snob with to much time on her hands.
Sounds like you met up with a real bfh! :? I would have told her, "If the cart is such a concern to you, then YOU can take care of it"! Some people think everything is their business! Curious though, I wonder how many polar bears had to die for her to buy "green" bags. Isn't the bag made with green dye? Sorry that happened to you. Perhaps she should have offered to help rather than berate you over a shopping cart of all things. :shock: We got a new postal worker and she is consistently a hag. I went in to buy stamps and when I asked for help she let out a really rude huffy sound. I said, "I'm sorry, am I bothering you, you left the lobby door open and due to it being during normal business hours I just assumed you were open for business". She was quite nice to me today!
LOL Girl you rock, What a good girl, just smiled and let that nice rich lady get whatever was on her chest off and you came here and got yours off. Now you sit back have a cup of cold tea or whatever and just thank God you help save a old rich lady life, by letting her get whatever was bothering her off her chest before she had a heart attack or stroke. You are a very nice mother, wife and lady Aggie. You ROCK!!!!!
I think you took care of that self righteous (ummmm) just fine! I don't think you ever expected someone to whine about a cart of all things. It's not like you dropped it off an overpass onto a busy interstate for goodness sakes! You could have told her, "When you get down off your self righteous soap box you can take care of the cart for me." :lol: Or when she was pitching a fit you could ignore what she says and say, "How nice of you to offer to take my cart back for me"! LOL My ds said that I have "the look" that says things won't end well for someone. LOL
Your last post sounds like me, Aggie! I always think "why couldn't I have come up with that at the time" once it is too late. Thank you so much for the laugh! It was a very visual post and I could just see you and that "woman" standing there!
Aggie - this is why you should always carry a Nerf bat. That woman sounds like she could use a few good swats.
I HAVE A CART STORY TOO THe last time I was at the store, the lady parked next to me put the cart behind my van, looked right at me and said "sorry" and left. Now, I don't mind people leaving carts on the curb and such, but behind a van?"
How terrible! You should have said, "You WILL be sorry if you don't move that cart"! :lol: It's one thing leaving the cart but it is another story when you park it behind someone forcing them to move your cart. My ds was sitting in the truck with me at Wal-Mart on a windy day when he spotted a rouge shopping cart traveling at a high speed toward a cluster of cars. He sprang from his seat, quickly opened the door and sprinted across the parking lot, (I am still wondering why he shot out of the truck in such a hurry). I am watching him and he caught the car inches from someone's new car door. WOW! He put the cart up and said that he didn't want someone's car to be damaged so he thought he would try to help.
What really got me was that she looked at me and said sorry before getting in her car. I understand she had a child with her, but I had 3 kids 2 carts and 1 poor bagger with me. I thought the poor bagger was going to die from mortification! Even she was shocked! And to top it off, she was in a hurry to get out of the parking lot, so my whole gang and to kinda jump out of her way to avoid being hit. All so that someone else could have her parking spot.
Gee! Sounds like that lady needs some lessons on being polite to others. I think it is annoying when you are at the cash register and paying for your stuff and the person behind you thinks that unless they are up your butt they won't be waited on. They stand right next to you invading your space. I always give them a dirty look and if they don't back off I politely ask them to step back and allow me to have my turn without them crowding me. If that doesn't work, I'll send dh or kids to get something that I happened to forget and that will either get them to back off or move to another line. :lol:
:shock: This is unbelievable! I would have lost it! It was not even a rushed accident. This twit consciously left her cart behind your van and then had the nerve to apologize to ease her own conscience! I cannot believe how rude some people can be!
Great story Aggie...not great for you, of course but it cracked me up. Mamabear...you are my hero! I will have to remember the postal comment for when someone acts like me entering their place of business is just too bothering them. lol.
I don't think the lady was "sorry" for leaving her cart there, she was sorry you witnessed it and knew it was her!
Thank you! I really don't have the patience for someone to act like I am nothing more than an inconvenience when it is their job to wait on me. I have had plenty of jobs where I wasn't in the mood to be at work but I was always courteous and friendly and did my job like they were paying me to do.
:lol: I have days when this is very tempting. Usually I am a good girl and vent when I get home.:angel:
