Blame game hits a snag

-

RE: The Bunnings snags. What a load of rubbish. If the onion is on the bottom and a piece falls out and you fall – who are you going to call “onion busters”?

Also if you buy a pie or a coffee from the cafe inside of Bunnings and spill or drop something who do you call – “I can’t see busters”?

Best thing is that Bunnings move their coffee shop/cafe outside into the car park and tell everyone who buys a snag to eat it before you go inside and do not allow any food or drink into the store.

Bunnings allow you to take dogs into the store – if the dog has a wee or a poo and you slip on it before it can be cleaned up do you sue Bunnings, the dog or the owner of the dog?

This is getting to be absolutely stupid political correctnes­s. If you walk down a footpath and slip on something do you sue the council?

The shop outside where the product was (perhaps a clothing shop and you slipped on a banana skin)?

Do you take a DNA sample of the skin, try to work out where it was purchased from and sue them?

Or demand to see video footage of every person who purchased bananas within Australia within the last week and then interview them all (although they may have been a tourist and returned overseas or interstate) to finally get your revenge when all you had to do was look where you were walking.

Don’t blame everyone else for your stupidity.
