Well who's fault is it that those toys magically appeared on the shelf? I'm pretty sure it wasn't that cashier or manager who put them out there. Remember, they were the ones that refused to sell the things. Mistakes are made. No one's perfect. I don't see why anyone there should have to risk their jobs just to make a bunch of people too old to be playing with toys happy.

That's pretty arrogant to say. I've worked with people that were laid off from their jobs and were stuck working there until something better came up. Not everyone there makes a career out of it. And even if that is their career, someone has to do it. Just be thankful you're better off. Customers with your attitude are why retail workers are so disgruntled to begin with....

exactly he was a dick
i could tell when he came over everything i said he said it sharply back like i was a little kid

Beacause for starters your store employee who you as the manager are responcible for, put them out and made the mistake and your store should back it's employee and honor that, not abandon him as the blame placed retard we keep in the back.
And secondly because it is no ones position to judge if your "old enough to play with toys." And by the way the reason I don't have to work a ****ty retail job bro, I sell those "toys" on ebay and make alot of money. So yea...

I wanted the jungle chase set really bad so i borried 20 bucks from my friend and we drove to wallmart after school to buy it. I go in and the display id torn down i was like ok....? so i go to the lego isle and the set is still there so i figured they must of moved it. I go to the register and it rings up as Not Allowed To Sell....... the girl goes sorry i cant sell it i go may i please speak to your manager shes like why? I said because i want to buy it............ so the manager comes and was a total ***** from the start he goes whats the problem. I said well i wanted to buy this and it diddnt ring up. he goes wel those have been recalled. Why i asked him. he said oh theres a part or something thats bad i cant sell it to you. I said well if your not going to sell them you should take them off the shelfs because that is very misleading. He says look dont tell me how to do my job kid and arent you a little old to be playing with legos! Than i lost it I was like look you ( insert swear word) your not doing your job because you should of taken them all off the shelfs if you wernt going to sell them idiot!!!! Than they called security and we got escorted out my friend was laughing the whole time
Cann I ask you a question?
Is it really worth getting that upset at a store manager over a friggin lego set? He's doing his job guy (or kid).
Maybe you should be a little less obsessed over all of this and get a life. It's lego's for Christ's sakes. I really hope you never, ever tell a female about this story or your already extremely slim chances of ever getting laid are pretty much shot.
Lego's dude...lego's, lol.

Didn't sound like you were much better.
Judging from your profile, you're 16, right? You came in with a chip on the shoulder, threw a hissy, got the manager, threw ANOTHER hissy, and acted like a typical teenaged punk. What did you think an adult was going to do?

Its not the manager's job to be antagonistic towards a customer. Retail store employees are supposed to treat customer's respectfully.
Nurhachi probably should have demanded to speak to a district manager instead of arguing the way he did.

Where does this idea that if you collect legos or toys you cant get girlscome from? I get the feeling its alot of you guys who don't have experiance with women because I have never had a girl who wasn't actually more then a little excited by my collection. My last girlfriend played with my stuff more then I did. I buy it and put it on a shelf, actually don't like it to be touched, I come home and she's rearranged it all. Im talking about a 24 yr old women who graduated college and works for a dentist.
And let me reassure you all that having payed my way through flight school on my own (Around 25 thousand) that you can do pretty well for yourself selling toys.

we went to one last wally world and they had the jungle cutter set and it was priced on the shelf for 39.99 i figured its in the system im good to go. So after pleading my friend to loan me 20 more dollars because i get my check on monday and would pay him back he agreed and i went up to purchase and guees what..........
Item Not For Sale
I was thinking **** the lady scanned it 3 times and it diddnt ring up so she says sorry i cant sell it. I said well i saw the price for 39.00 on the shelf i will go show you she said are you sure its 39.00 i said yeah im positive. than shes like ok fine i guess it got mixed up with another item. so i got it and wanted to get out right at the door the alarms beep and they asked to see my reciept i showed it to him and the door guy was like oh i cant wait to see that movie you guys have a goodnight

Embarrassing in the sense as to how immature, dorky, and greedy the commentary has gotten to this point.Deckard said:
Some people in this world are struggling to pay bills, find a job, stay healthy, not have their government crap all over them, etc...they have several things to complain about.
Other people whine about not getting plastic toys that whey are not supposed to have now anyway...and (gasp) could get them in a couple weeks anyway.
THAT is embarrassing.

can i ask you a question?
if you are so cool than why are you posting on an indy fansite? you know a site where fans talk about things indy related?
Yeah because i go to school every day and go hey ladies i collect legos and other indy stuff!! will you **** me now? no im not that extreme
and after that fiasco i went to my friends house and his girlfriend and her friends were telling me that it was awsome and badass that i got kicked out of a store over legos they thought it was funny
and gimmie a break im 16
snake_surprise said:
No it really isn't tho. And don't give me the whole world in agony BS sob story. I don't feel pity for anyone who has the means to do better and simply didn't or still don't apply themselves.
I worked my ass off and wasn't given anything, and I say if people want to complain about plastic let them. It's an Indiana Jones board, people are talking Indiana Jones, bad or good, if you can't take the heat, get out of the thread. Im tired of having to consider every single person's feelings. Sometimes feelings are hurt. boohoo.

Listen man you know nothing of my situation my parents are getting divorced my mom walked out on me and my dad 2 years ago and is living in california i rarely ever see her maybe 2 times a year.
my dad cant afford to keep our house so its in forclousre and we will be moving soon so im not going to graduate senior year with my friends who i have known since grade school
the only reason i got things like my jacket is because it was an early b day present from my mom
and im not even sure if im going to buy my wested because gas is pretty expensive i already sold my other jacket
so if i want to get upset over a little plastic toy i damn well will

You're SERIOUSLY not helping your case here. Do you honestly think there aren't people here who have had, or have now, things a lot worse than you?
Oh, your parents didn't love you so now you can be a complete prat at a shopping mall? Or one here? Give me a break. sure, maybe the manager was a dick, but neither that, nor your history excuse your behavior.

I agree Vance, Nurhacci handled the situation poorly, but because he is complaining about legos instead of starving to death he isn't allowed? Or is it that you just don't like what your hearing? If thats the case I suggest not coming in the thread, and again Im not defending Nurhacci's initial behavior, but if his problem is legos and he wants to vent let him. If you can't pay your rent and want to start a thread called "My Landlord the Bastard" do it up.

This doesn't make any sense. You cannot categorize everyone's situation into one stubborn worldview like yours. But as you say below, this is about Indy...so let's get back to Indy...Deckard said:
Sure, they can complain they cannot get some plastic they have no right to get yet, like I can voice my disgust on the former being vocalized on this thread.Deckard said:
Better yet, let's go to Spielberg's house and demand he release the movie now, because after all, it is done! We have a right to watch it right now! The nerve of him!
I can take the heat...its not very hot. Only nerdy around here.Deckard said:
And I do not know what you mean with the feelings comment. You are definitely not hurting mine.
Sorry about your situation. Not sure how smarting and pouting over toys help alleviate things...but you will figure it out I guess.Nurhachi1991 said:

snake_surprise said:
It makes perfect sense all those problems you said, people who can't pay there rent or people who don't make enough, There all in the same categorey. The Not my problem category. And allow me to vocalise my disgust for your disgust.
Again because Im not starving or poor I can't complain? Sorry I dont think so...
And btw don't let me catch you buying one damn Indy product, all your money better goto starving children.
And Im with you, Lets go to Speilbergs right now, Ill drive.
