Yesterday my mom, being the lovely mother she is, got the video game "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" my father and I have been waiting for that game! So she said that she went to Wal*Mart on her lunch break and other stores to see if they had this game for sale, anyway.. She went up to the cashier and asked for the video game...

Mom: Do you have the game "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" for sale yet?

Cashier: Oh it's another "Vice City" buyer! I can't believe Wal*Mart is selling this game! You do know their is nudity and cussing in this game don't you?!

Mom: I am buying ti for my husband, so yes he knows

(Cashier yells to another lady)

Cashier: This lady wants to buy "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City"!!

Cashier #2: OH! GET THE HOLY WATER OUT!!!!

My mom said she was so humiliated!

I mean, yeah some people don't like the game, but when it comes to working at a job and talking to the public like that you should be fired on the spot!

Once my mom got home she called the manager.

*Sorry for the double-spacing a lot*

Date: 10/30/2002 4:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 53427    I guess some people don't know how to keep their mouth shut. That was out of line for that lady to say that. She should keep her opinions to herself.  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:21:00 PM  From Authorid: 22080    i would complain quickly shoot my brothers friend just brought it over and there is no nudity that ive seen yet but there is large women in bikinis *cringes*  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:22:00 PM  From Authorid: 53909    That's crazy. Grand Theft is an awesome game!! Yea, they should of kept their opinons to themselfs.  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 15400    And this happened at Wal*Mart? Doesn't surprise me none. Wal*Mart is SO full if it. My mom works at Wal*Mart as a cashier, and one day she was working at the snack bar. I went in there to buy the computer game "Alice". I went up to the cashier to buy it, and she asked me if I was 17. I replyed with a simple "no". Then the woman starts to yell at me for grabbing the game and trying to buy it. I told her all she had to do was go to the Snack bar and ask my mom if I can buy it sheesh. But yet she kept yelling at me anywayz. I wound up going home empty handed that day. =(  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 38278    Nudity? I want this game now. Anyway, you're right. They shouldn't have talked to her like that.  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:37:00 PM  From Authorid: 44321    Were they drunk? they sound like donkeys rear ends,I bet those class acts never got in trouble for treating your mom like she was some kind of joke. I am sorry she was treated that way.  
Date: 10/30/2002 4:46:00 PM  From Authorid: 39258    I want that game!!!! and who cares about those people, they work at wal-mart.. do they even have their teeth? screw them lol  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    Your mom should have been arrested! LOL! For what it's worth, I agree with you, FA. It's ridiculous for customer service personel to act that way. It's uncalled for and very unprofessional. On the other hand, your mom should have been arrested. LMAO!  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    Telsha, you're a bitter sort of person, aren't you? I've just noticed that lately. Don't take that in a bad way. It's just an innocent observation. Live and let live is what I say. Would you care for a cup of hot chocolate to warm you from the Autumn chill?  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:07:00 PM  From Authorid: 25828    glad your mom called the manager. they shouldn't have treated her like that.  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:08:00 PM  From Authorid: 25828    i second that second opinion frank *-)  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:11:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    Thanks, Heather! It's good to know that I'm not alone. It means that I'm not crazy or I'm not the only one who's crazy. Either way, it works for me. LOL!  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 19625    Why what an awful woman your mother! Psht... Wal*Marts a bunch of crazys, I'm surprised they had an unedited version of that game... I'm surprised they have anything unedited in there... they're loony bafoonies. Erin-  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 53689    HEY!!! I WORK AT WALMART!! and yes, I have teeth, all of them! LMBO! FA, I hope those people are taken care of by the management. But I can tell you from experience, Walmart is a screwed up place.  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 25828    tarheelgirl i've heard that from other employees, like if they throw something away because it is defective or whatever, an employee can't take it home or they get fired..they'd rather throw something that could be used away than let an employee have it.  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:45:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    Tarheel Girl, you may have teeth but who's were they originally? :O  
Date: 10/30/2002 5:46:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    I meant 'whose'.  
Date: 10/30/2002 6:11:00 PM  From Authorid: 29781    ALways shop at Gamestop!!!!!
They will take good care of ya!

(GEEZ I can't believe Walmart acted like that!)

If she buys BMX XXX send her to Gamestop. It's coming out but there's only a little bit of nudity. Mostly comedy but the media is having a hayday with it.

GTA Vice City isn't that bad.. It is selling out everywhere..
  
Date: 10/30/2002 6:19:00 PM  From Authorid: 45630    Those games are nothing compared to leisure suit larry when it came out.  
Date: 10/30/2002 6:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 28190    Oohhhhh, That was totally uncalled for FA.... If I were your mother, I would have went straight to the manager right after that happened. If They dont want to deal with customers buying the game then they shouldnt sell it, ya know? And Frank, Leave Telsha alone, She's awesome *hugs*  
Date: 10/30/2002 8:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 54570    I dont blame her for her reaction. I get embarrased when they holler over the PA for a price check on hygeine products or undies and stuff.... I can imagine what she felt.  
Date: 11/9/2003 11:43:00 AM  From Authorid: 1799    people are stupid.. a video game just isn't a video game without some kind of controversial thing.. take Resident Evil for example! lol  
Date: 2/10/2004 7:44:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    Ok I feel like SUCH a total dweeb I didn't reply but I read this when you posted it way back when...so when I saw the title I knew EXACTLY what post this was...I remember! ok I really have no life!  
Date: 9/16/2006 10:11:00 PM  From Authorid: 39370    Wow, I would have gone to the manager and complained. The clerks should have kept their personal opinions to themselves.
