off the freaking wall

I went to off the wall the other day to buy a pair of Dorinhas that I had seen previously. I had seen them there for 24.99 and I was wowed by the price unfortunetly I had run out of money that day. Two days later I went back and decided to go see if those jeans were still there since the sale was still on.

I walk into the store, try on the jeans again and I loved them so I took them to the cash. The tag still said 24.99. I gave the girl the jeans and she scans them they end up saying 59.99. Well the tag said 24.99 so the girl she was such a sweetheart asked the girl working the cash next to her if she could do anything.

The girl looked at me, looked at the jeans again and said no they\'re 59.99. She told me she was the manager, ripped off the 24.99 tag and accused me of sticking it on there. Then pulled out several pairs of jeans that they had taken the 24.99 tags off of so it now said 59.99. I was flaberghasted I\'ve never been accused like that before.

So I get angry, I\'m kind of short tempered but I have an odd sympathy for girls who work in retail stores because I understand it\'s a tough job. So I held in my anger for a bit and then I got so mad. So I asked her for her name to follow this up and she went red and said why? I said I wanted to follow this up, and then she says to me \"Talk to my manager please\".

There I am like what? I thought you said that you were the manager? The manager appologized for her behavior but I mean that was the worst experience I have had in a long time. I\'ve always had problems shopping at off the wall, they have always been rude and snobbish. But I have never been accused by someone for something like that and been lied to.

But it happened in Metrotown, the girls who work there are absolutly rude and snobbish. There only one decent person working in that entire store and that was this flip girl with brownish red hair. It was amazing what goes on there.
