I have been waiting for awhile now to see this movie. It has all a girl could want in entertainment, a fine specimen of a leading man, romance, peril, adventure, fine leading man, and did I mention a fine leading man? My mom and sister are here visiting and we finally have a quiet night to ourselves to watch a movie together, perfect girls night.
Enter, Bad Bad Shopette Worker:
Eight pm has arrived, which means in my world my kids are asleep. Comfy pj's, the big red couch, popcorn, an outstandingly bubbly diet coke, great company and I even splurged on a little ice cream. I have no idea how it is going to end! We are good to go! I pop open the DVD case:
"NNNNNNNnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooo!"
Inside is "Tugger: the 4x4 jeep who wanted to fly"
For the love . . . . and "why do I go back?" Because AAFES is in control of my life!!! I just can't break free! And to top it off we watched "Changling" instead. BAD. IDEA. What in the world was Clint E. thinking? Do you have to tell a story with as much dark, black, evil graphic scenes as you can muster???? Do we have to watch the bad people do the bad things EXACTLY! Isn't that what the miracle of fad out is? Didn't we learn this from Silence of the Lambs?! Once again, my head is on fire and I'm feeling the sensation of bugs crawling all over it.
Result: Went to bed with a bad bad aura, bad bad dreams, full full stomach, cold cold bed, no no leading man. Friggin' bad bad shopette worker.

That SUCKS! I hate it when you are so excited about something and then, WAM...big disappointment. At least you had your sister and mom to complain together with! Have a fun visit!! (Abbey just mailed a letter to Bailey.)
Yes, I am laughing! Not at you...well kinda at you, but not in a mean way. How irronic to have something like this happen to you twice! Do they have netflix over there?? :-)
You my dear Leslie, have the WORST luck! Take it back and make them give you the RIGHT movie for FREE! Throw in another free one while their at it too...
Aafes does have a monopoly on us huh? I keep saying their saying isn't "We save you money everyday" it's "We screw you over everyday".
Holy MOLEY! I'm sorry....
I had a visual of you opening the case and, just like the videographers do when they get to a suspenseful scene, screechy music started and the camera man zoomed in on the movie then quickly zoomed in on you to catch your horrific reaction! (insert scary sound here) Ehhhhhh Ehhhhhh Ehhhhhh.....
Ok, seriously! You need to move....closer to another shoppette! Really, I totally wasn't expecting that...literally burst out laughing! You, poor baby!
Oh Leslie, I am so sorry for laughing!! You need RedBox in Germany!! Ya just stick that little debit card in and no one speaks to you!
I had a bad shoppette worker experience today. Put gas in my car at Maverick, went inside to fill my mug with my daily Pepsi and told the worker, who sees me every day, "that's me on pump 2".
Get my Pepsi, had her my card and off I go.
Get to work look at my receipt and no charge for gas! No phone number on the slip, so online i go to call them and tell them I will be in on my lunch to pay for the gas she did not ring up.
I walk into Maverick on my lunch to pay for the gas she did not ring up and she yells to the long line ahead of me....Lynn here is the "drive off". She came back to pay!! I AM NOT A DRIVE OFF!!!
Bad Bad Maverick Worker!!!! Walkers pEPSI for me tomorrow!!
Is there really a movie called Tugger: the 4x4 jeep who wanted to fly??? I was laughing so hard at that. Of all the things that could have been in the box--a 4x4 that wants to fly??? Oddly enough, I just read this tonight after picking up Australia at the public library. I will not be able to watch it now without thinking of you and your 4x4 movie though! :)
It sounds like that lady shouldn't be working there anymore. I am going to send you a link to Australia that I watched the other day and it is really good.
Incredible. GRRRRrrrrr!!!! That's so annoying!!! At least Aunt Sherrie and Dannette are there to share in the experience... and hopefully you'll be able to laugh about it later. You have GOT to figure out another way to rent movies. Ü
That poor girl and you have something going on.. maybe she needs your fantabulous insight on things.. Leslie, it was rotten what happened.. yet as a story goes hilarious.. I hope the next movie night goes smooth.. You obviously deserve better from the other side of the counter!!
Ha ha ha~! Thanks for a good laugh. It sounds as if you need to invest in netflix. Yeah, the shipping isn't too quick but in all, I end up with 6 movies a month. Good luck and I'll keep checkin in for another bad shoppette worker post! :-)
