Letter to my public
Dear AngryFarmer or CrabbieOldLady,
I'm sorry you decided to come in at 5pm on new release day to buy your copy of Corner Gas/Robots/Family Guy movie/Sheryl Crow & we were ALL sold out. I'm also sorry that you're a mean old smelly person that doesn't understand yelling gets you nowhere.
Yes sir/madam, we had adequate stock, but when you ring through 100 customers in 45 min before 11am, possibly you could understand how it got depleted.
No there are no rainchecks on the coupons. That's what "ONE DAY ONLY" means in the flyer.
I don't care how you feel. I'm getting a fat bonus this Xmas off of your consumerism so I can be far far away from the stench of the retail environment this Feb break.
And I'll be laughing at how upset you are over not having your precious material things. I'll be laughing all the way down the mountain I'll be boarding on, hugging trees all the way.
Sorry I'm so inconsiderate. I guess I find some things more important than others. Like loving the Earth instead of your "precious" DVD boxsets. Have fun being old & grumpy.
Love,
Natty

Hah! Oh, the joy!
Well put, my friend.
sweet jesus, the old smelly crunchy jackasses is one thing i do not miss about retail.
except for bartko, strictly because of her ridiculously high hottness factor.
I'm a consumer whore!
And how!
Awww. I didn't like that story. People need to remove head from sphincter and really take a close look at what they're doing. As if yelling at a retail clerk is going to get them their stuff. As if behaving that way is how one human being should treat another.
I guess being surrounded by HMV workers makes me more aware of the idiocy of people.
(Although, I did rather enjoy the way you wrote the story. Well done!)
