I am posting anonymously because I don't want to get my head ripped of by the people who are so incredibly ticked off with this subject. Sorry, but I have to agree with some of the postings to quit posting on the FML about Petco. I have read and re-read them and I think some of the postings aren't saying to ignore the abuse, which I think that the one person who went totally ballistic read WAY too deep into. That would be the only reason the poster would go over the deep end. I think it is the fact that by posting on the FML is not going to help the Petco situation. GO TO THE PROBLEM! Quit posting here. We all know there are issues, and it doesn't need to be noted on a daily basis. That is what is getting annoying. Not every store is bad. No one knows except for those in there area. If you are traveling from state to state, then we will listen. But until then, take care of it in your area. I agree that there are problems with Petco, and you have to start at the local level, and then move up. Again, posting here on the FML won't help, except to make people more aware. But, it still won't correct the situation. We have a store here that is in bad shape, and with a band of us, we have straightened around that store and it is doing well. That is what it takes. It took a long time, but we did it. This topic is getting off key and out of control. The PetSmart issue died down, now let's get this one to die down. Please. It will take more than just posting on the FML. Get together with others in your area and take matters into your own hands. The FML itself can't do anything. You have to do something.
