You are standing in Wal-Mart, looking at the magazines and books in one of those sections that have half shelves by the check out lanes when a woman and her kids (one 4 year old and a baby in one of them car seat things in the basket) are at the end of the isle. The older kid grabs a magazine and sits down in the middle of the isle, as the baby proceeds to cry. She shuts the baby up and the older kid is ripping the magazines apart.
Got the scene so far?
So as you are throwing the stuff you selected into the basket (yours not hers), the baby starts to cry again so you look up to find no mother around. You look all around, she is no where to be found. So you stand there and watch for a few moments and notice a Wal-Mart employee behind you putting up baseball cards that some brats ripped open and tell him what is going on. You are not the only one who is watching the kids; a lady with three kids of her own is watching them from the women’s clothing section right across from the book and magazine section. After the employee stands there for a minute, he calls security and the manager. All the while you are looking around for the mother and can’t see here anywhere.
So after five minutes of people milling around and the manager getting ready to take the kids to her office, the mother pops up to claim her kids before the manager can do anything.
Now here is the rest of the story,
She starts ripping into the manager about how dare anyone thinks the kids are abandon and she is really ##### off that someone dare call the manager over her kids being left alone like this. The manager tried really hard and successful in keeping her cool while trying to explain Wal-Mart’s position on children’s safety while in the store and explain why she was called and by which employee. When the manager pointed out the employee, this piece of work ripped into him. The employee in his great wisdom points to me and says it is my fault and walks away. She starts in on me and I waited until she slowed down to tell her this;
“Lady, it is sad that you are a mother of these children, in this day and age we should not tolerate the outright stupidity and ignorance you showed all of us and you are the poster child for sterilization. People like you are the ones who ***** and complain when someone hurts a kid but look at you today, you are the reason kids get hurt. How the **** would you feel if something happened to them? like ****, I hope and of course you are the idiot who would blame Wal-Mart and everyone else for your own stupidity. I only hope that your kids grow up to be good and not follow in your foot steps, you ignorant ****.†And I walked away.
Later the lady who was in the Women’s cloths section thanked me for my diligence in telling the employee and she heard what I said which she thought it was not out of line at all.
