Check Out at the Garden Center

Mildred Featherlight waited patiently at the checkout counter for assistance. Mildred had been standing in line at a local trendy garden center for nearly 30 minutes. Mildred wanted to make her purchases and get home to her family!

The customer in front of Mildred kept asking the clerk if any plants were on sale. Each time the customer held up a different plant and asked, "Is THIS plant on sale?", the clerk would reply and say, "I dunno." The clerk would then do a price check on the plant in question.  This process went on until Mildred reached her boiling point. It was at that moment that Mildred seriously thought about opening her beak and letting out some choice bird expletives towards the idiotic store clerk!

Instead, Mildred left a special message for the Garden Center clerk to find at the end of his shift. Written out, on the hood of the clerk's car, were the words, "You are a complete moron!" What made it really disturbing was the fact that the words were neatly written out in 'bird droppings'!
