Do de de de do Inspector Caaat...
So I thoroughly busted myself a price switching maggot today. This guy has been in before, and been caught no less than half a dozen times trying different sorts of fraud. He's run the gamut from price switching to return fraud.
This afternoon, Punky and I were working in linens and I was pretty sure I saw him. I whispered to her, and she checked it out and concurred. We then began the appropriate actions, i.e., informing all employees and the manager.
Sure enough, the slimeball attempted to put a $49.99 sticker on a $200 mixer. He bolted as soon as we said we'd have to check the price.
Twenty minutes later, he sent his girlfriend in to attempt a fraudulent return. This was also thwarted, and he pulled to the front of the store to get her. He got her, we got his license plate number. Turned the scum sucker in to our loss prevention people and hopefully they can get some info and possibly do something about him.
Law & Order: Retail Store. Heh.

Punky said today that next time she and Baby Momma come over, they're going to have to lie to Baby Daddy about where they are. Why, you ask? Well, because, TOTALLY UNPROMPTED, BM pulled one {still in a bra} tit out of her shirt and sat there. BD got pissed about it. They argued, and she shot back that BD touched Punky's tit. Which he did.
But in any case, he doesn't want her to come over anymore. Gah. I mean, I sort of see his point, BUT since we didn't ask her to do it, it's her fault. Not ours. And in any case, she only did it because Punky flashed us her bra first. And furthermore, it's a BRA, for cryin' out loud. It showed no more than a bathing suit. It wasn't even lacey!
I'm so annoyed with this. ALL our friends signifigant others don't want them around us. And we have never done one thing to deserve it. Nikki's fiance thinks we're the devil because we live in a city. Although Chicky isn't with him anymore, her ex didn't want her to come here because she fucked black men here. Another friend's boyfriend doesn't want her around us cause he's afraid she'll drink. The list goes on and on.
We're not that bad. Really. We NEVER try to get anyone to do anything they're not comfortable with, ESPECIALLY if it would involve being unfaithful to someone. That's so not our style.
Yet we get blamed for every transgression anyone commits.
I guess it's easier than blaming the one you love.
Bleh.
Love,
Cat
