Derogatory RCI Crack at Lowe's

I was picking up some of the $2000 of stuff I've bought at Lowe's recently. I was buying some more stuff, too, and paid with an RCI Elite Rewards card.

When the cashier saw it, he made a bunch of derogatory comments about timesharing and RCI.

I heard a voice say, "Sounds like a personal problem." I turned around to see who said it, and no one else was there.

Doesn't seem like the type of thing an employee ought to say when their store serves an area with 28 RCI resorts.

A cashier at Lowes....sounds like the perfect target for a developer timeshare sale....give em a free gift, promise the world, finance the overpriced purchase on their measly salary, and laugh all the way to the bank.

Sounds like a failed, disgruntled former salesman for some developer in Branson. I'm afraid I'd have found the store manager before leaving, had him look at my receipt and then asked that, when paying for merchandise, you'd appreciate it if his employee's didn't have nasty things to say about the credit card I was using to pay for my purchase.

Of course, he could have been a timeshare owner who has found decent exchanges harder to find, discovered that RCI was renting to the general public, and put two and two together. It would be easy for such a person to have a negative opinion of RCI. But then, again, he shouldn't be expressing it on the job.

A combination. He was, infact, a disgruntled TS owner, saying he bought it for his parents. Then he said when he realized it cost $500/year, too, that was it!!!!

So, he didn't get far enough to know enough to become obsessed.

As for finding the manager, the sentiment of which I agree with, there are better, higher, longer lasting ways of dealing with it. This is a vacation destination, with 28 RCI resorts and their thousands of owners, and I doubt that it is Lowe's official position that they prefer that all of those folks go four exits north to the Home Depot.

But I can if that's what they want.

He did stirke me as being above his preferred station in life, as if he preferred to be elsewhere doing something else. But, again, this is Branson.
