Trip to Walmart.

As you may or may not know, today is opening day for dove hunting. Last night my boyfriend, Hunter, and I went to Walmart to renew his hunting license because his ran out last week. Of course, I couldn't make this trip because I have a job that makes me miss things such as this. But anyways, we went to get shells and his license. As he's looking for the one's he wants, I'm looking around at the line of people waiting to get their license renewed as well, because everybody's expires on the same day. I asked one of the men how long he had been waiting and he said about ten minutes. With signs all through out the department telling the days when the doves shoots were, they had to know people were going to be there the day before renewing their license, but yet nobody was there to help.I decided to take things into my own hands and I went on a search to find somebody. I went to another department where I saw another man waiting in line and he said "He's been on the phone for about 15 minutes and has yet to help me." So I said "Sir, your going to have to get off that phone." He rolled his eyes and I said "Look, all I need is for you to page somebody to go the hunting section." He sent me to another department and before I knew it I heard them calling somebody to go to the hunting section. About ten minutes went by and still nobody to help us. Two other men went to go find somebody and one of them ended up going to find the manager. Before he showed up, a girl that worked there came over there and said she didn't know how to do the license so she couldn't help. I asked her where the girl that was supposed to be working the hunting department was and she said "Oh, she's still on break." I was thinking, "Holy crap how long of a break do they get." The manager finally showed up and I didn't hesitate to tell him what I thought about the situation. He got the computer up and started getting the information from the man in front of us for his license. About twenty minutes went by and I asked what was taking so long to print out a piece of paper and he said the computer was slow and that was the only one that could do the license. After spending almost an hour and a half in Walmart, we finally make it out of there with about 9 other unhappy customers still waiting in line. I was wanting Subway, so Hunter went by there and of course, because we spent the whole night in Walmart, Subway was closed. I settled for Mcdonalds and then we finally made it home. Never again will I ever go the day before the season starts to renew mine or Hunter's hunting license.
