I keep buying bad watermelons...

Not I, yet, if they have any integrity they'll want to know that they are being supplied w/ poor quality produce.

So, if the next one is bad, ask for another. That's the reason you are asking them to cut them for you. Don't be shy about it. It's o.k. It's your right to have good produce. IF they get squirrely about it ask them if they would want to bring that home.

Thanks everyone! I took it back to the store, they gave me a refund and I went to Trader joes (where I feel more comfortable with the people and their service) and I bought one for 10 cents less....yay me! No more getting things I cant see from stores I am not comfortable with.

I havent opened up the new one yet, but I'm sure it will be a lot bette than the last one...ick..

thanks again!!

Most of us were 18 at one time or another...some of us have to look back a
l-o-n-g ways to remember 18. I can remember not knowing what to do in many situations, sometimes just not doing anything about it, or making big blunders. Your questions about things like this are refreshing, and you deserve the encouragement and motivation to do what is right. We've all learned by trial and error....here's a story to tell you how unsure I was at 16 about how to handle a situation.

I stopped by a lunch counter in a dime store (I'm REALLY dating myself here) on my way to work. I ordered a tuna sandwich and the lady behind the counter made it for me. As she was spreading the tuna on one piece of bread, she sneezed right on it !!! I didn't know what to do, and didn't want to embarrass her, or myself, , so I just ate it !~!~!~!~! Can you believe it...I'd NEVER do that now...but I didn't have anyone to ask and I was afraid to stand up for myself, and it called for an immediate decision.

Experience is a great teacher...however, if you ask what you think might be a silly question here, and get a good answer, then you don't have to go through the awful experience of trial and error.

wow....I've been getting better at stuff like that. I would ask for no cheese or non dairy...and now I dont care...its their mistake....they can feel however because my health doesnt need to suffer because of their mistake.... I'm trying to get better about things like that...sending it back, returning things..... Thank you for sharing your experience though, its gonna stick with me for a while, every time I feel unsatisfied with what I've gotten and feel I should get a new one or something...good story...
