Blue_Frog,

Wow! That 5 year old COULD have been abducted by some pedophile. Then you know what would've happened?? The parents would've sued the store. Some people, like all animals, need to be spayed or neutered. The stupidity of parents these days amazes me.

I've heard nightmare stories about people who just dump their kids off at toy stores to play while they shop. They are the ones that need to be in jail.

I hope I never see that family again.

On a lighter note...

I was putting new arrival mice in their tanks. First time since I've been there that I did that. I was kissing them and talking to them as I put them in. My manager was laughing so hard, she came over to me and said, "Donna, if you insist on doing that with every mouse that just arrived, you'll be here till next week!!" She walked away laughing and shaking her head. I told the guy who delivered them that I felt bad that they would become some snake's dinner. He told me, "Yeah, well in all my years in this business, I've never heard of a vegetarian snake."

Did I say how much I love this job???
