Okay, pissed off.

I know this is kind of trivial, but I was at work today and this lady came in. She was looking for all of these different DVD's, and I had to order one specifically for her, which we do all the time. The DVD I ordered for her was Steve Reeves Hercules/Hercules Unchained box set. So, then she asks about the Disney movie Fantasia. I tell her, "Ma'am, we can't get that for you. Disney has not printed anymore, so it's out of print for the time being." She looks at me like I have four heads. I explained they do this for pretty much all of their movies, so they can make more money off us folks. Didn't tell her the last part, but just started ringing her up. She says "I love that movie. It's so good, and it's got adult parts in it so even adults can enjoy it." I tell her, "I don't know if you already have it or not, but at the end of January, they are going to stop printing The Little Mermaid and all of the sequels on DVD, so if you don't have them you need to get them before the end of the month." Then, she starts saying "Well, I thought The Little Mermaid was a sucko movie. I mean, it's so juvenille and it's so stupid. It's like it was made for only kids to enjoy." I looked at her, getting very pissed off. I said, "Ma'am, The Little Mermaid is one of my favorite Disney movies. It was made for kids...which is why it's so juvenille. It's supposed to be that way" then she says "Well, at least with Fantasia there were adults parts we all could enjoy." I just let her go and didn't say another word to her, I was fuming by this point. Does she not realize who MADE TLM??? I mean really. That's just stupid. Grrr. Sometimes, I swear I hate customers. *hangs head*
