I hear ya We all have "WAR" stories. At least you made the attempt Let's hope the buddy and the Dad in the OP's story don't have that mentality
YUP....I read the first post, the invitation at the end to share stories, and I was like..... I could write an encyclopedia on all the horror stories I've heard about.
I work at a big chain. I've been cussed out for revoking the warrantee on a red-tailed shark that was destined for a goldfish bowl. I've been LOUDLY accused of trying to cheat someone out of money for insisting on bigger tanks for goldfish. More times than I can count on my fingers and toes, I've had someone interrupt my explanation of humane treatment with a shoulder shrug and "GAWD, it's JUST a fish!, lady" ....ah, I will not start: I'll never stop
