Goodwill to Men...HA!

Oct 24, 2007 11:45

So Jamie and I went to a new Goodwill that opened on Broadway last night to look for Halloween stuff. First off, it was weird. It was all nice and crap... and it had coffee?? Whaaa? I like my thrift stores crummy, just like I like my sleaze sleazy…. I hate prettifying the seedy elements.
Anyway… Jamie was getting cranky, so I grabbed him out of the cart to leave, jumped in the car and headed to ARC….at which point I realized I had left my purse back in the cart at Goodwill. I raced back to the store, asked the employees about it and they haded it back to me. At first, I was relieved until I looked inside to find the 240.00 I had inside (I know! Stupid to carry around that much cash, but my new debit card hasn’t come yet!) missing. I ask the girl employee who turned it in and they stated no one, they noticed it sitting in the cart (which I had left right in front of the registers) and she said the guy employee (pointed to him helping a customer) had ran outside with it thinking it was another lady’s, which it wasn’t, then brought it back inside with him.

Which pretty much tells me that guy took my cash. At this point the guy is done helping the other customer and I look at him and say “ So no one else had this purse except you guys. But somehow 240.00 is missing from it….gee how strange! Guess someone is gonna have one hell of a night tonight huh? Thanks for taking my kids bday money, (which is total bullshit btw) hope you feel real fucking awesome about that…btw you left 18.00 in this pocket asshole.” Then I left.

There’s really not much I could do...it was my dumbass fault that I left it behind (this isn’t the first time Ive left crap behind…and lost money btw), and I guess I should be happy I got all my ID cards and stuff back….Plus I couldn’t prove that guy took it really (and if he didn’t then oops, but I don’t see how in 15 mins anyone else but this guy could’ve taken it..especially since the girl had already said that guy was outside (away from others eyes) with it…

The guy didn’t say much. Didn’t figure he would.

(I wanted to punch the creep in the face…really really bad… but I cant do that shit anymore.)

Sucks to be me… lesson learned.

Apparently there is no real goodwill at the Goodwill.
