Pet store idiots

People should do some research on the companies that supply these chains with the animals in which they sell, most would be shocked. I wont step foot in either chain, one is no better than the other.

i did not say nor will i even think to say that the OP handled the situation correctly.
yes, he could've been more calm about his views and opinions & might've been listened to.
yes, his being nasty about it only exaserbated the problem we herpers face on a daily basis. your right to be concerned about that.

my point is no matter how crappy a situation everyone involved can make choices on how they behave.

i've had my own experiences with those pet store employees, ok so i get it.

i just dont see how hurling insults is gonna resolve anything.

Some people speak their mind, not all will sugarcoat it

i know icandi. i'm not saying wilomn shouldnt do so...it's just looking like an attack in my eyes is all.
i'm quite passive most times so i guess aggressive responses look like attacks.
i keep going back & re-reading everything trying to make sure i'm not missing anything.

wilomn i'm sorry, i'm not saying your in the wrong and i'm agreeing that the OP definitely is but i guess your aggressiveness is coming off a little strong. i tend to think that on occasion.
i seriously dont want to have an never-ending go-round over these differences in opinion.
can we agree to disagree & just be civil with each other in the process?
i truly enjoy this site & have no need for enemies here.
