Its all just a big ZOO!

and I want to tell you that I am the big monkey in it... You know why because I love to make people laugh and through bananas at me... ok....

Here is what I really am writing about... today I had a man steal a $50 arrangement from me. Now and I was talking to mom this afternoon and I was on super drive... Yeah mom I was on super drive it was just something else.

So lets back up and start about 3 or 4 months ago this guy Jerry was caught stealing candy bars and I dont know whatelse. So I was just happened to be there when the 3rd in our store said Jerry you may not comeback into the store.

Well about 2 weeks ago I saw him in the store. Yeah I know I would not be caught coming back into the store. So I saw him and I head to the office to tell the manager he was in the store.

Well he must have notice me going to the office so he followed me back in there, where we wittnessed him threating our manager and we started to call the mall security. and he left. We at that point trespassed him to from the store and mall.

Well on Friday I saw him at US bank and I called John and said that he was there and that he might come into the store.

he walled passed the store and into another store. Long story short..
today this man walkes in with a black hooded sweatshirt he walks over to my floral department and looks at me... I said can I help you. In that first minute i look at his eyes like I knew him, he said he was just getting warm. He then disappeared. he went to the front door where I have Valentine's day arrangements $49.99 and he was looking at them, I looked down and looked up and I saw him walking out the door, at first I thought that he went over and paid for it so i checked with the checker and he said no so OUT the door I went.... YEAH i went a running. so I could not see him so I was thinking down the mall... so I booked it down the mall... lucky for me I had my cell with me...

This is where I am out of shape and need to start working on that .....

I saw him down the mall... so i went after him trying to get mall secruity
so i saw him heading out of the mall I said Jerry,
he looked up I need to see a recipt. I paid cash... I need to see a receipt , at this point i am on the phone with the store to call the mall... Jason said he heard him say your freaking crazy.... to me and other things I dont remember...

ME freaking CRAZY... YEAH I am... I know I am he did not need to tell me I was.

So by this point I had hung the phone up and was on the phone with 911... LOL I have to say she did a great job of getting everything out of me you know.... I might get just a little excited.. just a little.. I am really a CALM person you know..

So I was still watching him and following him and he ditched the arrangment into the trash and was heading across the parking lot... at this point I was not going to chase him across the parking lot. The mall cop came and drove acrossed the parking lot while I was standing there. so I headed back to the store...

Funny Pat the old floral manager was sitting having coffee and saw me running though the mall.. I went over and sat down with her for a minute.. Said give me your coffee I need it.. (JOKE)

So I sat for a minute and said we have it on film... so I went running back to the store... yeah i got a work out and a half..

seeing that the store just put in millions of dollars worth of security cameras, I knew it would be on there... by the time i got back the police were there waiting for my statement and boy was I on a high...

So I continued to work and said I was leaving early seeing I have to work tomorow. So here is where the PLOT gets so much better


SO I am heading home the same dircetion I always do. I see Jerry walking down the side of the street... OH no your not... so I got on the phone to 911 once again.. Yeah I am still a little crazy. and start to follow him while I am on the phone and trying to drive and well enough said so I am watching him and he disappears....

So I am in the parking lot waiting to see if I can see him and I see a police officer and I pulled over next to him and said are you looking for Jerry... well he said I am looking for the QFC guy, which was me... Told him what he was wearing and he said could you point im out if you saw him..
"YES" so he said I just saw him go into the sprint store follow me....
so I followed him around the stores to the sprint store and sure enough he was there. So... the poice officer pulled into a spot and I pulled in next to him and said Yes that is him. he called back up and said I could leave so I pulled out of the parking spot and drove around the area until i was facing the store and i saw him be brought out in hand cluffs and placed into the back of the police cars...

So yes I am still on a high and I cant believe that he almost got away from what he did... I know there will be a trial and I will have to go to that... but I just cant believe the day it has been

so as I started out... In this life we call a zoo... be the money, the elephant, the hippo.. be whatever you want but just remember... its not good being a snake.
