I went into Big R Supply today for feed and well, to look at all the beautiful chickies. They have a great supply of chicks every year. This year there is about 15 different breeds of chickens, 3 different kinds of duck and 2 breeds of geese. At first I was a little concerned about the troughs not being covered to keep little kid hands out. But seeing lots of employees around I figured that they were keeping a close eye on everything. But.... Well as I was walking around drooling over the baby chicks about 5 children come in to look at the chicks. These kids were soooo rude!!! They kept pushing me out of the way to look and running everywhere. Then they start man handling the poor little ducks. Grabbing with both hands and dropping them back in to grab a cuter one. I wanted to scream!! I stood there and watched, there was 2 employees there watching and their Mother standing there. I defiantly gave her the "evil" eye for a few moments. After realizing that the employees were not going to do anything I said something to her. I said, "Baby ducks and chicks are very fragile and can very easily be harmed by children picking them up or touching them, thus the reason for the no touching signs" she then told me that I obviously did not have children and that they just can't help it.
And them went on to call me a lazy fat (B word) with nothing better to do, and to mind my own business.
I couldn't believe my ears!!! The worst part is that she said this within ear shot of her kids.
I am still so angry about this. Ok rant over now, thank you for listening.
