Jami Is Annoyed

We usually shop for most of our groceries at Giant Eagle, a local chain with generally good prices and one of those gas discount deals. One of the things I like about it is that they have Cookie Cards you can get for your kids. You buy a card for $1 at the beginning of the year, and then every time you shop there, your kid gets a free cookie, which makes everyone's life easier. The store we shop at most often had a little clear plastic bin where you would just go and get a cookie and not have to wait for a bakery person or worry if the bakery was open. Today, when we got there, the bin was gone. I asked the baker if we could have a cookie and she asked to see my card. I've never had them ask. So I pulled it out and she gave us a cookie. I asked her if they'd had problems, I was thinking of kids grabbing a bunch of cookies or taking one, changing his/her mind, putting them back - you know, kid stuff. She said "We've been seeing adults taking cookies who aren't with a kid, who don't even have a card for a kid - and usually taking 2 or 3. It's not right, the cookies are for the kids." Grrrrr!! Hey, Stupid Jerks who think it's okay to steal a couple cookies - KNOCK IT OFF!!! What is wrong with you? You're stealing. And you're stealing cookies! Not something you need to survive or something you can sell, but you're stealing something "little" just because you want to and you don't have the common decency and self-control to tell yourself "no". You took something nice that the store was doing for its customers and made it a problem for them. Not that you care, but you've made my life just a little more difficult. Maybe you think it's crazy for something like this to annoy me, but I just hate people who break the rules because they feel like it and we all end up paying for their selfish stupidity.
