Adult Children by Stephen Beals for March 20, 2025

I say, first things first … how about training him how to get a proper hair cut first?

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence but the grocery store that I shop at just did a remodel on a big section near the back. One of the things that’s changed is where the eggs are. A couple of women I talked to were worried when they couldn’t find the eggs, so I showed them. The timing is ‘odd’ how it matches this comic.

Costco and Sam’s Club reposition every quarter to force people to go the aisles.

I always used to make it a point to loudly greet all those customers who said, “I’m never shopping here again!” when I saw them return the following week.

Great one, Stephen.

A customer that complains and comes back is better than the ones that don’t say a word and never come back again. Some people just like to grumble.

The store where I shop hasn’t done a remodel in a while. It’s probably due to happen again, just to confuse me.

..stab them with your eyes, Bennett, just your eyes..

That’s it Bennett keep smiling…..Tabby will bring you some pop corn to sooth your jaw…..

Oh oh. Is this a preview of what will transpire when GoComics does its “upgrade”?

My big question is…. will our original year price that we paid allow us to continue as a “Premium Member” through the length of time we purchased the year, or come April will we lose out on the remainder of our time and be instructed to re-up at the new rate immediately?

I retired from retail plant nursery industry and have wondered why I started reading a comic with this theme. I now realize it’s helping me feel the relief of not having to deal with any of that stuff again. And to remember the good people I dealt with.

Please don’t let the door hit you on your way out.

It is not a threat. Usually it’s more of a promise that is likely to be broken within a month. As @Melki said above, I would be sure to greet them loudly when I next saw them in the store. (It was generally only a week or so later.)
