    Rude Petco Employee

    Well I was at Petco buying feeders and I was helped by a lady who appeared to be going home but she helped me anyway, since everyone else was busy. I though "Oh nice". I asked for my 2 mice and a little bit of bedding. After she was done she handed me the box and said and I quote: "Now that I am off the clock I can be a (rhymes with witch =D). Would you like me to feed your frickin snakes for you too?"

    Now I was kind of taken back by this, because I am always mindful of low wage employees. I am usually very patient and everything is accompanied by a please and thank you. After I check out and get in my car I realize wtf? I got pretty angry over it. Got home and called and had a nice chat with the manager.

    Hope she gets fired honestly. End rant.

    Don't get me wrong Petco is normally pretty good, except for their feeder prices are a little high. I'm willing to pay more cause they are bigger and overall look much healthier than other around here.

    Re: Rude Petco Employee

    I have a very manly and very (w)itchy lady who works at my Petco. She really pissed me off last time she got me some mice and rats, so I asked her if I did something or if she acts like an a$$hole to everyone. She said "I'm just a (w)itch". "oh, ok". Like you said, I'm very patient and polite, but this one makes it a point to show how angry and uncaring she is at all times. There are 2 really nice and helpful ladies who work there. I always look forward to seeing one of them if I run out of rats.

    Re: Rude Petco Employee

    This is off topic, but my last post reminded me of a funny story. I was at my liquor store over the summer and I got in line behind this early 80's looking guy in polyester with a little mustasche and feathered hair. A guy walked in and yelled, "Hey nice 'vette, who's is it?" Mr. 1984 turns with a grin and says, "Thank y...". "Do you always park like a F'N J@ghoff?! Mr. 84 got scared and started stuttering and they got into it a little, but he was completely double parked in the only 2 spots on front of the store. It was awesome. Sorry, back to Petco.
