NOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

That "NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" is going to haunt my dreams......
The mall Tv has this fairly short loop where every 15minutes or so, an ad for some 4G phone comes on and talks about how *AWESOME* it is to download and stream movies... and shows a clip of this made up movie where the guy yells "NOooooooooooooooooooooooooo"  when he gets a letter (which then gets panned in to read. and it says "Nooooooooooooo")

I am *not* feeling the awesome.

unfortunately i have not been impressed with how the mall has been handling their event marketing and organization, either

ravenskye8   and i are working the craft show at Oxford Valley Mall.
We are on the lower level near the Macy's, and as i am beginning to expect the mall people didnt tell ANYONE there would be a craft show.
that includes the people at the guest services desk

repeat, GUEST SERVICES didn't know there was a craft show.

so this morning was the "Breast Cancer  sMall Walk" a couple miles of laps around the mall, starting at 7:30 with a scheduled end time of 10:30.  Since the mall opens at 10 am, we figured this was a great opportunity.

so we got in at 7am and made sure our booth was open, lit, and all pretty.  we even had a whole pink promotion going on....
sure enough, 7:30 am the hordes of walkers got going, doing laps around our table.....
huzzah!
(talk about dedication, one girl was walking on crutches!)

so we smile and wave and cheer them on, figuring we would see them  after the end of the event, right?
right?
the pep rally finished at 9.  the mall had NOTHING going on to keep them around.
nothing
they even had the escalators shut off so people were discouraged from going upstairs.

so if you had gotten up at o blink early, walked two miles, been to a pep rally, and then the mall is closed, there is no way to even get upstairs to get coffee, or go to the bathroom, would YOU stay and shop????

me neither.

Ravenskye8 has a more lucid account on her LJ over here:
