Bullied by Manager and creepy stranger, together. This actually happened. You just cannot make this up. And read it before you go all half ahd on replying. Today I went to Fred Meyer, new in town and apparently learning how evil and negative and victimizing Boise natives really are. When entering the store to just purchase a pastry, there was a mother duck and her babies stuck under the plants. I had seen the baby that was run over in the parking lot as I came in. So me, being me and loving all living things, got the two babies unstuck from the bin by moving a few containers. She then proceeded to walk again across the parking lot. I decided to go in and customer service a request to call the nature control. Not going. Manager boy said that they do not do anything of the sort. Ok. Then it is up to me. John Q public to tend to this. I get a Sterilite container. That were all bunched together and I literally had to fight my way through bunched lids to get a matching container. Got the container. Went to the edge of Bath and HD and there they were in a corner. On my way out, manager boy follows me through the store, to tell me that if I touch the ducklings momma duck will literally kill the babies. Not true and the beginning of his microP behavior.
At the corner, the babies where corralled into the tub, so easy peezy. They went in. Momma duck was not leaving these guys, so for about a half an hour, I sat quietly, by myself minding my own business, doing my own thing without anyone bothering me. Asked one guy to move his truck slowly to not get momma duck upset and he said, no problem and good luck. Good man there. Then manager boy from Fred Meyer decides to come out about 45 minutes later to continue to tell me lies about my process and what he believes I should do with my time and then walk all over the area making the momma duck upset and nervous, bullying me. I do not know what his intentions were. But I can tell you like I told him. He needed mental attention, he had never done this before and this was his first time and he was not a help, he was a hinderance. I asked him if his job was worth this, since he was on company time and out of his property line, harassing me while I was on public property. He laughed and said, I don't have to worry. This continued for about another 5 minutes with him accusing me of kidnapping the ducklings and hurting the momma duck. Hmmm how is a rescue a kidnapping. NOT. rescue. He then kept up with the kidnapping and verbal abuse, negative negative how bad of a person I was for my efforts personally to try to take nature to a wonderful park down the road. BAD, BAD bad, words of negative, more more, for 5 minutes. He got a call and walked back. This did not deter me and I sat for another 15 minutes watching momma duck get closer and closer to the container and once she almost went in. In this time, a woman in a flower top without no concern was going to walk through the narrow walk way between momma duck and me and the container. She was making a b line to Fred Meyer to complain about me, you sad little woman. Then here comes manager boy from Fred Meyer. This time, he is on his BREAK. His personal time, in my personal space, telling me I am a bad person to perform a rescue of this momma duck and her babies to relocate them to a known pond, down the road. So here he is harassing me on his brake again, I am horrible, kidnapper, stupid for attempting this. I am not on the Fred Meyer store sidewalk, I am at the corner of Bath and HD. In a corner. No one else coming through except the dude that said I needed to leave it to the professionals. Oh, I will get to them. They did not care, response of 3 nature rescues were to let them die. We don't come to rescue that type of situation. It gets better, while Manager boy at Fred Meyer were, bullying and harassing me on his personal time of his break, some little pencil D. Comes walking up. He chimes in, bullying. Remind you, I am here in my personal time on public property, minding my own business, in a CORNER. I asked no one to help me, I was not showy or loud or obnoxious, I was sitting silently, waiting for momma duck who was right beside me to trust me further and get into the container. Sitting with momma duck. And here comes AH #2. A kid. With a phone. Who proceeds to accost me like Manager boy. Again, I am a kidnapper. It is illegal to take nature from where it is, blab la bla. This time, I pick up the container and flee with it to my car with momma duck flying after me. And this creepy guy running after me, bullying I put the babies in the car in the tub and try to assess to get mommy, then creepy kid walks up to my car with his phone, calling the police complete with stating he is going to stand in front of my car to keep me from moving. Because 911 girl is as ignorant as they come and he is lying to her about me KIDNAPPING the hatchlings and mommy. Creepy guy. read more
