Now on to what you said...
I worked at bunnings for a time, or should I say I did time at bunnings... When customers vented it was by far the best thing they could have done for us that worked there. Nothing could be better than having someone blow a gasket, throw their arms up and storm off effin and bliming... It simply meant that they became someone else's problem, or better yet just f@@@ed off to some other store, and I could go back to mindless tedium. Do you honestly think we actually care that you are unhappy with the service or product?
If you really want to punish the retail retards make them do everything possible that you can think of i.e. make them walk around the store with you and explain everything three times... Take up as much time as possible... And then say, I think I'll shop around and promptly leave without thanking them. Basically you've completely f$$$ed their day if you can string it out long enough because retail retards are made to work hard for the paltry seeds they're paid. Managers are hired because they excel at slave driving and being assholes - not because they now how to me good managers.
Or better yet, as the poor retard sales clerk is only doing what they're allowed to do by the managers under threat of losing their jobs, go and find a manager and punish them by dragging them around and f***ing up their days work... You see the sales clerk isn't given any knowledge or training (what bunnings said in induction compared to what happened when we were turned loose on the floor is an absolute joke) to do even a remotely competent job and the managers don't give a shit. Their attitude is head down don't want to know... When I go to bunnings (or anywhere else now) and have a problem I find the first red shirt and say you don't get paid enough to put up with the shit i'm gonna start flinging so go find a manager (really). The smile that comes across their face is priceless when I say that. Cause their thinking "Yes! it pay back time and I have a front row seat"
On a separate note, I've had nothing but superb service from my nearest Bunnings.

I didn't make their day then, because I remained very calm and polite other than explaining to them in words of one syllable how they were moronic. I then walked away and got excellent service from a completely different provider. I don't care if they are bothered or not by my actions. I only cared that I explained my dissatisfaction and that I then got better service elsewhere.

Be careful what someone from bunnings tells you LOL. Most likely they've been a house wife or teacher for the last 30 years so asking anything more than what colour can I get this in is asking for trouble.

That attempting to lift and then violently eject more than four 6 year olds from my shoulders in the pool will result in muscle strain and much bruising.
And that I bought too many sausages.

I learned today that it really doesn't matter. Actually it's been bashing me in the head for the last five years and I think the penny finally dropped. I wonder if this life changing revelation is tied into that I stopped drinking last week.

Today I learned that funeral processions don't appreciate The Pogues blaring at them from loud speakers and my car is faster than a hearse.
I also learnt you just have to be patient and let it heal.

That I now have an irrational and very girly fear of cyclones building off the coast of Fiji. 'Atu' , currently a category 1, is probably coming nowhere near me and the Turbaned 'chat du boite' but fills me with a sense of dread.

That Red Banana Prawns exist and they taste very nice; more like meat that fish. Grand on 't' barbie.

lots of tails thrashing everywhere
Only when sat at my laptop (that should be incentive enough to get him on the next plane south!!)
Good party then?
