Oh boy!!... Do I need some chilling!!!... On Sundays, I normally sleep in and wake up at leisure before my normal routines...(Watching "Benson".. The IT Crowd....Married with Children .. Sanford & son.... America's got talent)
At daybreak this morning I get a phonecall from my one & only pet shop in town and they want some Guppies... 100 Males & 100 Females....
Painstakingly, I select the best of the males & females I have in the garage... go outside to the ponds, catch several hundred and move them to the tanks where I can have a better view of them so that I can give them only the best quality and colours.....
Lo & Behold..... at 11h15 (they normally close at 13h00 on Sundays) I arrive at the Pet shop..... and they are closed... They had a quiet morning & just sumarrily decided to close shop for the day!!!!
No I ask you!!!!... is it justified for me to feel a little upset with them??

who made this request? was it the manager of the store? do you have their own private number? if not I would request this next time so you can at least talk to them or better still they talk to you! have you been supplying them with fish for a while? either way it's not on that they asked you this and then closed early, they probably forgot if the request was made very early but yes as someone said earlier ask for a bit extra for your time and fuel that was wasted today when/if you do return with the fish.
Ouch.
