So I thought I would throw in a brief mention about a trip I made to the Bay a few weeks ago, actually I've made quite a few trips in the past two months. The Bay is a really special place you see....
I had been looking for a pair of shoes- in particular they are Geox. They were full price everywhere I looked Feetfirst and Geox. So I said hey, you know what I'm going to go into the Bay... and besides that the shoes I wanted were advertised for 25% off at the Bay, so it said in the flyer I received. So I walked, no ran to the Bay one day after work getting really excited...I got there, looked around and picked up my pair of shoes. The sign said better then advertised 40% off, sure beats the 25% I was expecting. Then I looked around..hmm nobody there. I looke
d and walked around the shoe department for ohh about 10 minutes (the union workeds must have been on break). Then all the Sudden someone walked behind the counter marked "customer service". So I walk up and I'm like " I'd like to try a size 12 of these". He is like oh sorry sir thats not my department". I'm like "do you not work in the shoe department????". He replies " I do, but thats not my area." He then points someone out to me and said she him. At that point I was getting annoyed- I had been in there for 10-12 minutes with the shoe in my hand without the right size to try on.
So I saw the clerk, the other person asked me to speak to. I walk up and I'm like "I'd like a size 12 of these please". He says ok, give me 2 minutes. I sit down this time and wait. About 5 minutes goes by... and I am ticked off. I ask "are you getting the shoes still?". He says "actually someone else is, we keep the inventory on a different floor so it may be a few minutes". So I huff and puff and waited another 5 minutes and the shoes finally arrived. But the lady who went to pick up the shoes said ..."sorry we don't have a size 12, but I brought down a 10.5".
I swear to go I was going to scream......... all they had to do was bring me the shoes in my size and I would have purchased them-instead I received the runaround, bad customer service and was told that they didn't have my size. But Andrew this is a one off situation...oh no! I have no clue how the Bay is still in Business- who can afford to give customers discounts on anything but more then advertise.
I solved the problem by going to Feetfirst and paying full price and they practically ran to the back to get them. BOOM that's a sale.
I know I'm not the only one that has issues like this and is wondering how is the Bay still alive... probably not maybe the only one to vent them during my lunch hour though.

I read your power of positivity blog and thought it was wonderful and a nice change of tone, but if you want to be true to yourself and to the image you were trying to convey when you wrote that blog, perhaps you should try to take that same approach in future blogs. You are always commenting on what's negative, and what's bad, or unpleasant, is there nothing in the world that makes you happy? I realize that me leaving this comment is a little contradictory to the 'power of positivity' however, I would love to read something that is inspiring and pleasant, and takes what's bad about the world because we all know there is so much, and puts a positive spin on it. Make me smile!
