    im getting a bit fed up of mine, they cant tell the difference between a medium sized rat to a small mouse, and the worst is the guy who owns the shop does dilivery's, not moaning about that part it saves me the hassle of catching 2 buses, it when he dilivers and i open the bag when he's gone only to find a mouse, i then gota go back up the store, to either get another or what i wanted.

    LEd what petstore do you work at? I have a rat..and she will never see the jaws of death from my little boi. I love them both equally. Maybe it helps that i feed bub f/t...he tends to be a little clumsy with live..he gets nipped almost everytime...so i switched him over.

    You know how many times I have been helping people in pet stores just to have the pet store employee say.....

    "Well that cant be right cause we dont sell that here".

    LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL...... that always cracks me up.

    My pet store is shaping up!! Discovered one of the girls that works there as several snakes. So the other day I was there getting a feeder mouse, and walked up to the till expecting the girl to roll her eyes at me for killing an innocent mouse, and she's like "Oh, sh*t, that reminds me, I need to stock up on some feeders too!". Now I dont feel that bad. She remembered me when I was there last..we now ask how each others snakes are doing ;)

    Clearly, some pet store employees arent that bad :D

    hehe..the one time I bought a mouse, the employee (not the same one), looked at the mouse and said "sorry". Said she felt the need to apologise to the mouse everytime she sold a feeder :) Must be tough working in a pet shop becuase you love animals and then have to sell them for snacks.

    I sympathize with them, really.

    lolz...i dont feel like i have to apologize..the less time they spend at the store the better....even though i know their fate...plus if someone comes in to get a feeder i make them pick it out. they have to tell me male or female and point to the one they want. If they dont pass this then they really shouldnt have the pet....its the circle of life...lolz

    That is sad that some one would not sell a mouse for a feeder. they die either way. they are inbread so much they cant live very long any way.

    not to mention the fact that most pet mice are owned by kids who don't know anything about the health and nutrition of a pet. at least the mice i buy die a pretty quick, useful death instead of slowly dying of malnutrition and disease, then being buried in a cigar box in the backyard.

    i went to buy a mouse today and the manager (who i kinda lectured about his BP's a couple weeks ago) was working the register. while he was ringing up my mouse he goes "while i have you here, a customer called about a problem with a cornsnake he just bought..." and asked for my advice about it. at least he admits he doesn't know much!
