Over the last 24 hours I've been witness to a lot of genuinely nice actions and just this morning a pretty twisted one.
Queuing up for the "opening ceremony" of the Disney store yesterday the staff did a whole set piece of asking the waiting public to use the Force to open unlock the door to allow entry. This was obviously all done for kids but the whole line consisted of guys in their 30s and 40s but do you know what even though it was a bit cringy playing along everyone did it (ok maybe it was because we were big kids) because it would have been really embarrassing for the poor member of staff that was told to go through with it if we had just stared at them.
In the all the shops we visited yesterday people we polite, even when the doors opened and everyone headed straight for the figures there was no pushing or grabbing. Everyone took the time to be polite and ask if you were buying for yourself our family - advice was given on where to try next. Seen people on here offering to post out figures they have doubles of at cost instead of selling them for a nice wee profit on ebay
The staff at my local Asda have been especially good, the woman that manages the toy aisle has been a real star and even called me a couple of times to let me know when new stock was arriving so my and my quine could get round there quick. She gave my daughter a load of Rebel posters and wall hangers that were getting changed over ready for Force Friday and she called last night to say they had a big cardboard display with shelves that was meant for the new TFA figures but as they had no room we could have it and to pop round in the morning............
Was all put to one side with a note but during the night a young girl who is leaving next week decided to smash it up as "geeks are just stupid" so when I went round the poor woman only had the damaged parts left(that she had pulled out the skip) to give me - she was so upset and angry that the girl had been such a ****. Took me ages to calm her down.
So on balance there are more nice people out there - just a shame about the c*nts!
