Sell dead fish

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I went to the store and decided I wanted more fish for my fish tank. I got 10 neons tetras that girl was knocking them on the side of the tank and putting them in the container.

I looked in the pot and 1 of them was dead already I asked her to change it her response was "it's not dead it's only in shock since we switch the pot and if it's really dead you have 7 days to return it" the manager was at the cash register she said oh no it's not dead it's in a shock since we removed it from the tank. She looked closer and it wasn't moving I had to argue with both of them it was dead after 5 minutes the employee said well what do you want me to do change it or not? The manager said yes. I was in the parking and 5 of them were dead.

Now at home they are still dead and not moving! Customer service said all fish sale are final!

Staff following me around

My skin colour is naturally brown and I am middle eastern decent, whenever I have to go to get food for my two cats, the staff keeps following me around the store and always ask me if I need anything, at first I thought maybe they do that with everybody?

Was my initial thought but that wasnt the case, they were only following around people of colour which comes off very racist, they have asked me about 4-5x if I needed anything the moment I walked in, very hostile environment for anyone with a different background.

Also I would like to add, most of the pet value shops I had gone too, most of their staff is predominantly white.

Loss:
$45
Pros:
  • Are closer to where i live
Cons:
  • Racially targeted and very frustrating to handle
  • Ridiculously expensive prices

Preferred solution: I would like if they would just leave me in peace when I go shopping there, it’s like they rush me to leave it’s really irritating because I don’t get the chance to calculate the price or see the items that they have in stock.

User's recommendation: You can’t be from a different country/race if you are going to pet value you will be harassed.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Its been almost 5 months for someone to fix the dog wash at Williams Lake Bosleys. And is still not fixed.

The last time it was down it took 8 months to fix. Why does it take so long for you guys to your #^%+ together
