BITCH PLEASE! aka My Vera Bradley retailer vent

We don't have a Vera Bradley sig store in the area (the closest ones are either in Milwaukee area or the Chicago area). Damn I miss having 3 within less than an hour and a half drive in California (or a Bart ride).

I originally was in the mall to try a new nail place--my second time getting my nails done since moving here. I usually do gels with glitter tips. Since this first place had glitter tips, I decided to try them out. Also they were less than 5 minutes from my house. To make a really long story short, I did NOT like them or the way they did my nails. So, I went to try the place in the mall (more on that later)

The Vera retailer was right across the hall from the nail place. I walk in and slip and damn near fell. The stupid salesperson is chatting on the phone and I am mouthing "wet floor! I almost fell!"

She said, "I just mopped there"

How about putting a WET FLOOR cone there you dumb bitch! Had I fallen, I would fucking sue your ass for all the Vera you had in your store.

So I ask another sales lady about the retired items and the sale. She excitedly told me the retired patterns for 25% off (they had java blue and totally turquoise). Bitch please! On Vera Bradley.com, they were 40% off. HELLO!
Whatever! (more on another retailer in a minute)**
I asked her about when the new patterns were coming. She had no idea that new patterns were coming or what they were. Listen honey, if Vera Bradley allows you to sell their bags, know your damn product!

**the Hallmark store at Coralville Mall had their Vera for 30% off but since Java Blue is a popular pattern, they were going to keep it full price. Let me go in there and see someone looking at Java Blue, I will walk up to them and tell them it is on sale at Vera Bradley.com. If the damn pattern is retiring, ALL returning patterns should be on sale

The new nail place. No glitter tips, but the lady (Kathy) was nice and did a good job. Let me say I miss my nail guy in California. Kevin, please come to Iowa
