| - I'll start by saying that I was a long-time customer of this smoke shop. That was until tonight anyway. I just went in to purchase some vaping supplies and instead left with nothing..........nothing but the need for a new smoke shop that is. After I made my selections and was waiting to pay, I started a conversation with one of the employees. When talking, I put my arms on their display case. A second employee quickly turned and told me "no leaning on the glass". As I was straightening up and removing my arms from their delicate case, I said "Trust me, I'm not putting any weight on your case". Now, I said this AS I was straightening my posture, and respecting his previous statement. I didn't even get all the words out of my mouth before he repeated his orders to me, but this time in a "slightly" less friendly tone. Hey, I'm a pretty laid back guy, but I can change my tone as well when necessary. So, I repeated my words to him 8n an equally darker tone. By now, I was standing fully straight and was not touching their precious display case at all. That was when a third employee took it upon himself to jump into the mix and told me, in his best principal to student voice "Look, we don't allow anybody to lean on the glass at anytime....PERIOD!" He made sure to do the wild arm flailing while he said it to drive his point home. I kinda stood there for a minute thinking "Holy fuck! Did this dude really just say this shit to me!?!" Turns out, he did. He promptly followed it up with " Now, did you want that tank, or what?" I was already half way to the door by then. FUCK that grease ball, and I mean that with all due disrespect. Like I said I have been going into this shop regularly for several years now. That must have been what they call " preferential treatment" Hey Joey, the dude with the greasy hair just cost you a long time, loyal customer. I won't be back in. I already got my other tank back from them right before this all went down. DEUCES.
