Due to the Truth In The Subject Under Perusal Act, I have to fess up, and admit that my local Target won't let me in anymore. Seems it all started when I retired, and the other half insisted that I get out of the house once in awhile, and accompany her on various shopping expeditions. And I do mean as in a safari, complete with guide books and everything. (aka a mile-long shopping list.)
Anyways, we got a letter this morning, here's the gist of it:
Dear Mrs. Gai,
Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store. We can no longer tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Gai, are listed below and
are documented by our video surveillance cameras.
1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, "Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away!" This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money.
5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway.
6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged.
8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, "Why can't you people just leave me alone?" EMTs were called.
9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.
10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.
11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme.
12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his "Madonna look" by using different sizes of funnels.
13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled "PICK ME! PICK ME!"
14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed "OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!"
15. November 1: Called the local police when the Electronics Department clerk allegedly refused to sell him a set of strings for his GuitarHero axe.
And last, but not least:
16. November 8: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, "Hey! There's no toilet paper in here." One of the clerks passed out.
The upside is that now I can get in some more practice time. ;D
