Idiots, I tell you!

So I went to the Vitamin Shoppe looking for this glorious Syntrax Nectar mix I've been reading about. Walked in and two clerks (neither looking particularly healthy themselves) asked what I was looking for. Asked, " do you have Syntrax nectar?"

Silence.

"Oh no, we don't have that."

Silence.

Now, I'm sure I read someone saying they had it so I decided to look around. There, in the Protein Powder section a huge ceiling to floor section of guess what? Syntrax Nectar. In every flavor you can imagine.

I grab lemon tea flavor (great by the way), walk up to the counter and say " uh, yeah you do."

Silence.

Come people, this isn't a big store. Know your stock. And don't counsel me at the checkout that Isopure is "better for me" either when you are missing several teeth.

Uggh. Idiots, I tell you!

    Ew. There are people with PhDs working at McDonald's, Vitamin Shoppe. Don't tell me you didn't have any better candidates!

  • You might have been in my local GNC.

Wow, when I went into GNC, they tried to sell us everything lol, the clerk even pulled out a blender and was whipping stuff up for us to try.

Our GNC has very limited stocka. Seems more geared for bodybuilders.

Yes, and did u know they price match their online prices which at my store are $5- cheaper than shelf prices!

allons-y

The VS make me so mad. They are the only store I've ever visited that treated me like a third class citizen when I was at my fattest, helping everyone else while helping me, basically putting me off with each new customer who came in, answering the phone and staying on it, etc.

Now that I look more normal, I have their attention. Hmph. If I could get my OH YEAH bars else where, I would. Too hot for mail order...

Do you have a whole foods market? They have the bars there.

I also see them at Rite Aid, CVS, and Walgreens.
