as some of you know, i work in retail....the juniors department....while i love my job, occasionally, i come across that customer or customers that just makes me stare at them like a deer stuck in headlights. usually i can overlook most things...however today was a bit different...before i go on, let me just say that i was a good girl, and kept my mouth shut...even though it was hard not to step in and say something...very difficult....
ok, so on with the venting...i was out on the floor, making sure everything on each fixture was sized and everything had tickets...(inventory prep)...2 teen girls walk by and are looking at the clothes on the fixture diagonally to my right....now, i don't make it a point to listen to other people's conversations, but in my work, it's sort of hard not to....anyway, they were talking about babies...the one girl says to her friend..."yeah, i want one, but i'm not sure if i'd like it, and i don't know who i'd want one with...someone hott i guess" "then her friend says "well if you don't you can put it up for adoption" ...........WTF?...WHEN DID A HUMAN BEING BECOME MERCHANDISE?......it's not like you can just take it back if you don't like it...."oh i'm sorry doctor, i changed my mind"....yeah, not gunna happen....what is wrong with people?...i'll tell you....now days it is a rarity to find someone of a younger generation with morals and values....i mean what ever happend to being faithful to your spouse or partner, and creating another human life together and knowing that that is the most beautiful thing. people seem to have forgotten that when 2 people are in love, and express that toward eachother through intimacy, and create a child, it's not something to be taken for granted, it is something to be cherished.
now days, everyone just wants to get laid....they don't care about getting pregnant, because guess what?...they can just put it up for adoption....or get an abortion....why are we not teaching morals and values anymore?....why are we not teaching them to take responsibility for their actions?....(i'm not actually looking for answers here...these are just rhetorical questions)
