I use to work about 0.5miles from there ( south of valmont and 30th during late 90s and till end of 2000), and I still forgot to mention Sutherland's

Don't feel bad. I pissed in one of their mock bathroom toilets when I was a little kid. Hey, it looked like a bathroom, what did you expect was going to happen?

Now, that is a funny story! It would be horrible for staff to clean that up.




Going back to the topic.
I went to Cabelas just to see if there are any ammo left. NONE. Not even 243win. It had those unpopular rounds available as usual. The gun counter had about 4 lookers, and a guy in next to me was taking photograph of a firearm with his phone. I think there were one serious buyer who were couple. By questions they asked the sales staff, they are most likely first time buyer. Friendly staff ( at least the time I was in at 144th)

I can remember when a person could buy a firearm out of a catalog or the back of a magazine and have it delivered by the US Postal Service. There were no mass shootings, there were no school shooting... What the hell happened ??

I have no issues with the staff at Cabela's, or SW. 95% of the time or greater, they are friendly and helpful. The folks at Cabela's are specifically aware of how their store has gone downhill since the acquisition. Even with the limited times I have gone to BP in the past few years, they have also been courteous. Ownership and upper management are the problem, not the staff.

Speaking of M&A, I thought there was about 10% probability that walmart is acquiring FedEx. This was when Fedex office is getting into Walmart stores.
Of course WMT not having balls to compete with Amazon, they did not.
