Radio Slack
Friday, February 9, 2007

Just got back from running to Radio Shack, among other places, b/c the adapter on J's sound machine crapped out. I know it's the cord and not the machine 'cause the batteries still work...anyway, run over to Radio Shack, dead adapter in hand. Wait for about 20 minutes while other customers are helped and an employee seemingly on break walks back and forth about 5 times with his Campbell's Soup-in-hand. Jasper is taken with some sort of reptile robot-type thing they have on clearance. Finally get helped, only to come home with the new adapter and it doesn't fit. And even if it did, the part that goes into the wall is so big, it won't even stay in. It falls right out. Of course, I happily handed over the old one to the guy behind the counter. It didn't even occur to me to compare the plugs. You would think maybe it would have, b/c this kind of thing seems to happen to me every time I go to Radio Shack. Guess I'll be visiting them again tomorrow!
