Another hearty for Capt'n Dyke?

Woman fired after stopping robbery

Walmart is at it again, this time in my neighborhood:

...In the corporate world, the customer is always right. But what if the customer steals handbags and belts and then punches you in the face? What if you, the customer service manager, raise your arm to protect yourself or strike back and then get fired for touching the customer?...

Yup, that's what happened to Victoria Smith. It will be a cold day in Hell (which is weird, because I don't believe in Hell) before I walk into a Walmart. Note that there is a poll at the link above, asking whether people think Smith should be given her job back. I see that, so far, 7% don't think so. What assholes!

O Captain, My Captain: Cap'n Dyke

Blogger to testify before U.S. House Committee

Our very own Capt'n Dyke is testifying before Congress! Blue Gal and Dr. Zaius have details.

Steady on, my Cap'n. Your hearties got your back. I tied a witch rope to bind your problems and calm the sea. Now, the rest of you salty dawgs, drop the good Cap'n good line! (For you sodpounders, that means leave a comment at her blog!)
