Long Story, Extremely Short Version

I went to Deal Time today to pick up some stuff my mother bought. She has been stuck in the house for over two months so she buys crap from there. Even though by now you would think she would've learned her lesson. It's all broken used junk, but that is for another story. I went in there and stood for probably 5 minutes before I was ever acknowledged. That is not to say I wasn't seen because I was, by 4 of the 5 men who where in the room and the 1 womanas they were talking amongst themselves and having a grand time going thru tonights crap. That is when the 5th man picked up an air pellet gun from the table. And, I thought "surely, he won't" just as he did. Without looking around to survey his surroundings, he began shooting the gun, not at anyone or anything. He was just shooting everywhere and some of the pellets ricochetted over and it me in the legs. I was not hurt, more just like shocked and appalled that someone would be so careless. That is when the woman began walking over to help me and he shot her. She was very tough. She continued over and as she was standing in front of me the whelp that the pellet left reddened and doubled in size. She said "Wow, that really hurt" I said " You better be glad it did not hit me" At that point, I thought it had stopped, because the gunman had realized there was a customer in the building. But, was shortly surprised again when now the group of employees huddled together and began shooting the gun across the room. And, once again I was hit by ricochetting pellets and had retreated to the corner. After the woman had gathered all of my mom's stuff, I began carrying it to the car and it was on one of the 4 trips back and forth to the car with no offer of help from one of the six employees of this "fine" business, that they had begun shooting each other at close range with the gun to see how bad it hurt. It was just an incredibly ridiculous situation that I would have never intentionally put myself in. And, I am so thankful that the "gunman" did not blindly turn around and shoot in my direction, which could have easily been the case. And, this was the shortened version.
