Retirement Doesn't Have to be Boring
Dear Mrs. Bates,
Over the past six months, your husband, Mr. George Bates, has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this type of behavior and have considered banning your entire family from shopping in any of our stores. We have documented all these incidents with our video surveillance equipment. Three of our clerks are now attending counseling for the emotional stress caused from the trouble your husband has created. All of our complaints against Mr. Bates have been compiled and are listed below.
Mr. Wally Zimbrowski,
Wal-Mart Complaint Department
