It was the most horrible experience ever. I was shopping had a handful of stuff. Did not have a cart, went to the ladies room
Because I needed to take a glycerin pill for my heart. honestly didn't pay any mind to the merchandise in the bathroom policy but that really wasn't the main thing on my mind taking my pill was more important and really had to go to the bathroom. My bad. went in, dropped everything accidentally. A worker came in and yelled at me about no merchandise in the bathroom. I did apologize and explain that I needed to take my glycerin pill and she proceeded yelling that merchandise is not allowed in the bathroom. I picked up everything and I proceeded to leave the bathroom. Then I was followed throughout the entire store. one woman in the sewing department as I was looking around, rudely said to me can I help you with something And I said no and she said to me that I am wandering around the store. As far as I'm concerned, I was shopping not wondering. I explained to another woman that I needed to sort through my stuff and to see which items I was going to buy she took me up the front of the store so I could sort out what I needed as if I was a child being disciplined in the front of the classroom , I was followed throughout the store, no matter where I went. I was followed, felt very uncomfortable and disrespected. I was very upset crying having a panic attack due to this ordeal, needed to go to the bathroom and compose myself asked which direction the bathroom and she didn't even tell me she rudely said to me that I could not take merchandise into the bathroom. I told her I wasn't going to. She wanted me to leave it there with her. The bathroom was on the other side of the store and then expected me to go back to get my stuff and then go all the way back to the front and pay for it. They followed me to the bathroom even though I didn't have any merchandise on me. I handed my stuff to a very nice young lady to hold for me. Because of this whole ordeal, I had an anxiety attack and went into the bathroom to compose myself because I was very upset and they went inside followed me like I was a criminal. There were three women following me around the store. I asked them to stop following me and was very rude saying that they weren't I told one woman that she can check my purse. One of them rudely said oh we don't check purses so I told her to stop following me and she said that she was not. It's funny because everywhere I went in the store there they were. I've never felt so disrespected and treated like crap. I will never enter that store again and I did report this to corporate. Because of this whole ordeal, I had a anxiety attack which feels like a heart attack, I did go to the hospital to double check and make sure that my heart was OK and yes, it was. I understand they're doing their job but to be so rude like that was wrong I did apologize. I did pick all my stuff up off of the floor. It was the most horrific experience ever. I hope someday that they experience the ordeal that they put me through. I'm thinking on calling my lawyer and consulting with him to see if there is a case that's how bad this was This was the hobby lobby in Cape Coral, Florida. read more
