The Weirdest Thing Happened

[rabernet]

So - today I go to Petsmart to pick up some bird feed for the ASF's and some cat food. I speak to the staff that know me, peek at the kitties, roll by the rats, am headed towards the bird food and I hear "Robin Abernethy, please come to the front, Robin Abernethy, please come to the front!"

I'm like, did I hear them right? Did they just page me? Karl doesn't know I'm here - so why are they paging me?

I head to the front and look at the manager, Amy and go - "did you just page ME?"

She said "yup! This lady's buying two ball pythons and she has some questions for you!"

Now mind you - I've never worked at this store - I'm a regular customer, I adopted my Sammy kitty there, and I'm picking up canned cat food, dog food, bedding, etc on a pretty regular basis. I was "accosted" by the staff when they first got their ball pythons in to "train" them on the proper care of their ball pythons.

They are constantly asking me for advice on them whenever I'm there, and they have my number - one employee gives my number to other herpers, which I don't mind, because not many actually call. I'm thinking I need some bp.net business cards made to leave there! LOL

[Spaniard]

Woot! Woot! Pimping out bp.net!

I think it's great that Petsmart is willing to listen to what you say and want to learn. That's a first for me. And thank you for helping the new herpers.

Keep getting the good word out Robin! I'm thinking that store should be offering you a discount though.

Rock on Rob! Spread the knowledge!
