Rant time!

 Ok, Grandpa would say that the "world's going to hell in a hand basket"!

My husband and I decided while we were in town to stop at a walk-in salon and get hair trims.  (Styling Company). Since I'm ranting, anyone want to guess how that went?  Well, here goes...

We walk in and find out it's a 2 hour wait when there is one sitting waiting on a color job today under the dryer and another employee just sweeping the floor.  We didn't have time for that kind of wait so we went on our way. 

Fast forward to a couple of days later...

I go into town to try this again.  I first went to the same place only to hear the same story.  By the way, these places have many workstations without anyone working at them.  So, I go on to the next "walk-in" place in town. (Great Clips).  I notice as I walk in that there is a fairly large sign in the window that reads ("Just walk in").  I was 1st asked if I signed in for an appointment online.  So much for just "walking in".  Then when I said "no", I get informed that there are 14 people ahead of me.  Needless to say, I didn't stick around!  I have a busy personal life, so I don't do appointments very often.  Again, there are only 2 people I see working there at the time.  This is not the end of my adventure!

Next, I travel to the next nearby town because I'm determined for the hair trim to happen today.  LOL

I decide to hop into Walmart and do it there.  Wait time was less than 10 minutes.  (I have long hair, so my haircut isn't that difficult for the stylist. They just trim a couple of inches off the length and I'm on my way.)

Will I try those other places again?  Nope!  My plan is to either make an appointment at the local stylist whom I know only takes appointments or go to Walmart again.  I don't have time to deal with all that again!   😡 Too much stress involved!!!

P.S.  I had a discussion with the gal at Walmart about why places don't have enough people working.  She told me it's because nobody wants to work.  She said it's too easy to get unemployment and that there has been an increase in how many food stamps people can get.  Now THAT is what socialism does for a country!  (I'm not putting down anyone who truly needs these services.)

Grandpa would be right!
