Shopping drama

This morning I was up at 6am, did a wee bit of lawn sprinkling to dry to keep the deadness out, got some laundry running, had a shower and was off to Loblaws at 7am. I was doing my shopping and as I got near to one aisle I could hear some swearing. Now, normally when you go shopping early in the morning it is pretty quiet. But not this morning. I walked by the aisle that the noise was coming from and it was an employee stocking the shelves. He had his cart blocking the aisle and was clearly unhappy with how the stocking was going. Luckily I didn't need any of what he was stocking as I think they may now be broken as he was throwing them around a bit. After I passed the aisle I heard a huge explosion of swearing (maybe the shelf fell) that could not have been missed by most people in the store. I could see the manager in consultation with someone else so he seemed to be aware as well. As I was checking out I heard the manager tell someone else that it was not a good day (maybe for the swearer)

After I got home, I unloaded the groceries, hung the laundry then went out again to the dollar store as I needed some food for Kassie (she prefers the dollar store brand to the expensive food- I am not complaining!) and some treats for the trip to St. C.. On the way there all sorts of emergency vehicles had converged outside Canadian Tire on Princess St.. There was a motorcycle lying on its side so there must have been some sort of accident. The rider seemed shaken up but ok. He had been wearing a helmet.
