You know if someone treated me that way I would leave them a present. I would drop a big steaming pile right there on the floor for him. F-YOU!

I found 3 of the 4 today at a walmart in Houston. I opened up the ACE/WW pack, and Ace really seems to be missing some important accessories. No side arm and ummm..oh yeah an Airplane.

I never had a chance to tell him what i was looking for. So anyway, i decided to just leave. On the way out i noticed 2 1/2 pallets of toys in the center isle. I glimpsed at them when i walked by and did notice a box that said 25th anniversary on it. I said nothing and went home.
I figure that guy obviously hates his job and decided to be rude for whatever reason he may have. I was not rude, in fact i never even asked him a question. Maybe he knew what i was going to ask, who knows. I decided in the end that it wasn't a big deal. Who cares that some wal mart employee wants to be rude. I know what some of you are thinking. Poor wal mart employee, he probably gets asked about gi joe all the time. Big deal, and i don't feel sorry for him. nobody chose his profession, and if he is not happy, he should leave. He is in a retail job and as surprising as it may be, you have to be nice to customers. So to all of you taking crap from store employees, learn to stand up and let these angry people answer for their rudeness. At least, you'll feel better after someone has heard you. Gaelinic |

Anyway, I found the new 3 packs tonight as well, but left 1 of each (2 of the repaints ) for another lucky soul to stumble across. Not thrilled about the head sculpts on the Crimson Twins, and I think the shoulder guard thing is way too big, but still. . .its Xamot and Tomax! Its all gravy! Thanks Gaelinic |

The manager apologized and I got a $25 gift card. Honestly, I was more impressed with the fact that a store manager called me at work to hear me out, than I was of the $25 gift card.

Gaelinic I complained along time ago at a wal mart in Iowa. To make a long story short, i was buying a movie and i was carded. I showed him my id and he insisted it was fake. The movie was starship troopers and i think i was about 22 or so. I was kinda upset and left the store. On the way out i was talking to my friend about how messed up it was that i couldn't buy a movie. An employee stalking sodas in the machines outside heard me talking and literally yelled at me and told me if i didn't like to not ever come back. By that time i was upset. I gave that employee a piece of my mind and called corporate. I mean i wasn't even talking to him. Corporate did nothing and told me that if i have a problem with wal mart not to go back. All this over a movie. About 3 months later i was talking to a friend that worked there and i did find out that my experience with crabby employees was not random and that it happens more than i think. It was then i decided that it is useless to complain... |

Well, that's also part of that effort. You know as much as I hate Walmart, the prices just can't be beat. It's frustrating. I've limited myself to only buying my toy addiction there. I buy food and other things at Target. |

The good news is that the figures were all put out and I was the first one there. I got my 4 comic packs and 1 extra Fred/Scarface. Back to bed!!!
