Big RAT running free in Giant Stores waab

By great.angelina

I was shopping with few people yesterday at giant stores, and i saw something moving out of the onions and run quite fast behind the fridge! At first i thought i'm seeing things that didn't exist... Then while chatting with my friend the Huge Rat ran towards the fridges again this time visible to 3 people.. She shouted did u see him???? And both of us are actually disgusted with rats (i mean this is Not Ratatouille buying groceries to cook!) So next step was to inform the staff, which we did.. One of them barely moved to go check the scene and the others could care less... Here i was standing shocked that there's an actual rat Inside a store that's supposidly clean and the worse is the staff reaction who really didn't care at all!
I went to weigh my vegetables and asked the 2 philipine ladies sitting there about this, guess what they answered?? " we know mam there's a rat, he comes in every night at around 10 pm, maybe he gets hungry!" I asked if the management had an idea, they said yes they are trying to catch it for a while....
All lies, i haven't seen anyone trying to catch anything!
I hope consumer rights would do something about it

Death Never Knocks I disagree!

They should wash the rat instead, so this way: clean rat = cleaner vegetables!

rats are use for labs, experiments..

it can be food for others..

they may not be useful to you but still Gods creation..

its like the hair in your armpit that i assume you are getting rid of because it wont benefit you, but still a part of your body..

I'm just thinking...since there seem to be quite a few rats around, maybe they should be skinned.....;)

Sorry, it was only 25 million people. I exaggerated a little bit.

Rats are said to have brought the Plague to Europe in the Medievals! Be careful. 50 million people died back then.

the rat has it made.... living the life of Riley he is...

Good on the rat.... for heaven's sake woman, its a rat... its going to run away from you faster than you can say, KILL IT....

Just choose your veggies carefully and make sure you wash them well once at home....

Let's look at the lighter side. At least the rat knows how to keep a schedule. If anything at all, we can all learn from his being punctual (showing up for dinner at around 10 every night). ;)

i hope they give u a contract and what i really wish for is that they acknowledge the fact that there's an unusual and disgusting thing going on there and not just ignore it until Baladiya comes in and sees or questions them about it.. Then u would see them running around like crasy in an attempt to catch the outsider!!

Angelina - Imagine how hurt the rat's feelings would be if it happens to read our posts on QL about it!

And the most expensive vegetables is in Giant stores , May be they are charging the customers for Rat eating after 10.pm
