I spent my lunch hour at the Walmart to get my oil changed and get the trailer tire that I bought yesterday mounted on a rim. They are the most UN-everything bunch of people trapped in one place. UN-friendly, UN-helpful, UN-customer Service oriented, UN-efficient, UN-energetic, UN-intelligent...the list can go on but I'm tiring of it. An oil change should not take an hour when I am the first one in line. And the trailer tire that I bought (at walmart) can not be mounted to the rim. "We don't have the equipment". They sell 'em but don't service them. Now they are UN-equipped. I couldn't find a tire iron to buy (UN-stocked). I was ignored by 2 different people (UN-attentive)at the registers. The first waited for me to get all the way (after 15 minutes in line)to the front of the line to say "He'll Help ya" and walks away. I look over and he's busy, so I have to wait an additional 10 minutes. Finally it's my turn again and he goes off to finish paperwork or something as I'm standing there mouth agape. I finally get his attention where he then asks "What'a ya need?". I said my Car, Duh. This is where I probably called him a TOOL.
Why do I put myself through this? I should know better. So I go to another place for the tire stuff. 2 guys on the phone for 15 minutes, when one gets off the phone he looks right at me and says "He'll Help ya". Yeah right. I'm not playing that game again. I get into my car and go to the bank to make my deposit, Where they promptly place my deposit into the wrong account. As I'm leaving I check the slip, Yup they did. So I turn aroound and have to fix that issue. Not a good day for errands. By the way I completely forgo the ankle brace for Kay. Maybe I'll stop at the Walmart by my house....AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGH.
