Who needs $2565 worth of pens?

Apparently the kids who stole them. I work at Michaels and last night about 15 minutes after I got there these 4 punk ass kids came in a stole a bunch of Sharpies. They took them out of the packages and stuffed them in their pockets and ditched the packages. But the kicker is they came back in about 45 minutes later and did it again, only this time they stole a bunch of gel pens too, which is where I caught them. I walked down the aisle they were in and startled them, but the little bastards stole them anyway. By the time I called my manager to tell her they were back they had ran out of the store. Now let me tell you the stupid part, as a Michaels employee I cannot approach anyone who I think is stealing. If I see them put something in their bag or on their person, I'm still not aloud to say anything. They could come in, grab some stuff and walk out and I can't do anything. How utterly ridiculous is that? It's Michaels policy trying to keep employees safe from vicious criminals, but I think I can handle four 14 yr old kids. I bet I could make them cry. Oh, what I wouldn't give to try. It's alright though, I'm sure they'll be back in soon, I've seen them in there before. At least it gave the night a little excitment.

In unrelated news, I'm looking for someone to go to the Coldplay concert in Columbus in Aug. It's at Germaine Amp. and it's on a Wed. The great Rilo Kiley is opening, and then you get to see Coldplay to boot. So any of my Columbus friends (or anyone who wants to travel there) who are interested write me back. It'll be a hoot. Ok, I gotta go to work. Peace out.
