The Meaning Of Ugggg

So what does uggg mean...... it is the only way to describe the ridiculous happenings of today.  It represents the sad passing of common sense and rational thought.  The disappearance of words commonly used in days passed such as accountability, morality and tradition.  A warped sense of reality where it is better for children  to be locked down even on sunny days-- well especially sunny days as they will get skin cancer and die.  Where we parent with fear not like the good old days the fear our parents used....fear of them....no we use fear of the unknown, the stranger, the weather, the economy.

Everyday there is a new uggg moment in my life.  Ridiculous things that I'm expected to accept that would outrage my parents.  Urban Planet at the outlet mall not opening their dressing rooms on holidays, sales or days they think "might" be "busy".  How does that make sense??? Wouldn't that be the time to showcase your services.  So when I interrupt the three sales people chatting behind the counter doing everything but wearing a blindfold to avoid eye contact and ask why their change rooms are not only closed but actually barricaded by furniture and glass wall they explain it's too busy and they have a sale.   Seriously in a straight face like that would be a normal practice.  She went on to say that people get mad because other shoppers take to long in the dressing room and create a wait (create is my word -- creativity is another word gone by the waste side scarcely used) she rambled that statement quickly eyeing the conversation she was missing and longing to lean on the counter with her other co-workers.  I can only guess that the barricade is to ensure that an over zealous shopper does not take the initiative and sneak into the dressing rooms in an attempt to try on clothing they intend to buy....

I thought I would waste my time e-mailing their customer care web site as I couldn't believe this was a corporate decision as indicated by the sales person with her ending shrug of shoulders and a fast retreat to the awaiting lounging counter were her co-workers still lounged in the perceived busyness of the day.  Perhaps they were holding out their energy for the rush....To summarize my sentiments to their customer service department I wrote that buying without seeing was an Internet thing and their prices were not competitive in the virtual world and inquired why a corporation would make a decision to close dressing rooms anytime but more specifically when customers would be more likely to be in the store ready to purchase.  Believe it or not their response was yes they made that decision to keep their pricing competitive.  Really how do you respond to that Ugggg that's how.
