    I had been dealing with two very fussy babies all day. DH and I planned to go to Wal-Mart when he got home from school.
    On his way home, he calls me and tells me that his mom is taking me because his friend is coming over to play video games and guitar with him. HAH! I flipped out, because he does this so often and it wasn't the best day to try and pawn me off. DH comes in, and I have the babies ready for our family trip to Wal-mart. The babies cry getting into the car seats, and then ALL THE WAY THERE. All the while, I'm still pretty stressed about crying babies, and aggravated that he tried to pawn us off on his mom.

    We get there, and the greeter gives us one shopping cart. I clean it off, strap a baby in, and then walk over to get another. She asks what I'm doing. "We needed two buggies. I'm getting one more" DH then realizes that DS lost a shoe, so he leaves us to re-trace our steps. I clean the other buggy off and lower the baby into the cart, when the wal-mart greeter yells at me, "You need to MOVE, ma'am!" <She was TWO feet behind me, a simple excuse me would have been preferable>

    I didn't have time to THINK or stop myself before I yelled right back at her "I'LL MOVE, I'LL GET **R I G H T** ON THAT!!!" I screamed at a complete stranger in public. It felt... good. :girl_devil: Haha.
    Of course, DH walks up behind me right after, so he heard everything. "Bad day?"

    I don't like going to Wal-Mart during the holidays. It's an absolute nightmare.

    Since it's the greeter's job to be pleasant and helpful, I would consider callng the manager to complain.

    I thought about that, but I don't want to be responsible for someone losing their job, even if she was a heinous b****.
