Idiots

Why is it that some times when you venture out in public,
you run afoul of some idiot trying to protect or police whatever small empire that they think
necessary to police?

Case in point.

the family all went out grocery shopping today,
and the boys went to another section of the store, to
look at some toys,
and thay then came back to us.
about two seconds after they came back to us ,
idiot #1 came up and said that he was an employee
of the store and that one of the weasels had jumped and waved his hands in some ones face.

I said ok, and that i would talk to him.I went over to where the rest of the family was, and the idiot followed me, and continued to identify himself as store security.
I asked him for proof of this , and he got the on duty manager to come, and verufy
his identity.
She did, so i told him that i understood his concerns and explained that I wanted proof that he was employed by the stire, because anybody could just say this.
the whole time, he was repeating himself, and getting louder and louder, and cleverwife had even offered to take the one weasel out of the store,

Idiotboy seemed to take offese to the fact that I questioned him on being a store employee, and was getting confrontational, so i said to him that he and I were finished, he told me that he wouldn't be talked to that way in his pl;ace of employment, and asked me to leave.

I told him that i wanted to speak to the manager, and he said go ahead, but wouldn't leave, so I told him that I would when he left, he still would not go, finally he left.
the manager informed me that he was actually an employee of another company that works for the storein theft reduction, and that becuse we were not stealing, he vcould not aske me to leave anyway, and she did not want us to leave.

she also had told Cleverwife that she did not like the way the guy handled things and the way he acted and that she wanted us to continue shopping there.


Later, as we were leaving, the guy was glaring at me and acting like there was aproblem

the only problem i see was his.

am I wrong in thiking he was way out of line?
