Ugh, life without internet sure sucks and trying to post stories on the cell phone is no bueno! Anyhow, thank you folks for still coming by and reading. A big thank you to the commenters as well! Your feedback and your stories is what keeps this going! Now onto the story…
A dirty blonde hippyish girl wearing dreadlocks and knee high pink striped socks enters the store on rollerblades. At the time we didn’t have any rules regarding bikes, skateboards or even rollerblades operating in the store. People just know you just don’t go riding your vehicle in the grocery store.
So she’s zig zagging up and down the aisle. Dodging customers and displays alike when she grabs a banana from the produce section. She already has a lot of attention to herself but by peeling the banana and eating it; she garnered more attention from the grocery clerks as well. She makes her way down the wine aisle and does the “I’m suspicious” look. Checking over her shoulder and looking around to see if anyone is paying any attention. Of course we’re paying attention, you’re on rollerblades with knee high pink striped socks!!!
Then she does the inevitable. With one bottle in each hand she races towards the automatic sliding doors…
From the checkstand, I can see my managers chasing her as she darts towards the doors, then…
SMACK!
She crashed face first into the doors! They didn’t open in time because she was going waaaay too fast!
If only she would have bladed a bit slower…

LOL What a moron! She might even have gotten away with it if she’d just casually gone in with a big purse or something.
Bwahahahaha.. Stupid bitch. I remember the time someone tried to rob my store…maybe I will write about it. Thanks Paul.
Rollerblades in a store are not a new thing. 20 years ago, one of the first Wal*Mart Supercenters opened in the town where we lived. Since it was so large (4 acres under one roof!) they hired skaters- people on rollerblades- to skate around the store helping customers. That didn’t last long, as the store got too crowded for safe skating. It was the only large store for 60 miles around, so everyone came there to shop.
So – I’m really curious now, did the rollerblade bandit sue the store because she slammed into the doors?
