Twice in the last week something has happened that really burned me up. Usually, Jeremy just rolls his eyes and laughs at me for getting so "worked up" about something insignificant (to him), but this time he agreed with me. I thought I'd see if any of you other moms also run into this problem.
It happened at Target at Nashville West and Publix in Belle Meade. Kingston has to go to the bathroom, so we head for the "family restroom". It is locked. We wait for a minute and no one comes out. So I say, "Come on, Kingston. We'll go in here". He screams "Nooooo! That one is for girls!!". So we wait and wait outside the family restroom, and out comes A STORE EMPLOYEE!!!! Now, maybe I am blowing this out of proportion, but to me, it is a little like parking in a handicapped parking space. Sure, it is more convenient, but you save it for who it was meant for out of sympathy and understanding for that person!
Store employees better watch out because next time I see this happen, I'm going to straight to store management. Target may not care, but with Publix pride in their customer service, I bet they would.
Opinions, anyone?

I'm not a mom, but I'm with you. Certain services (like family restrooms and handicap parking spaces) are just off limits and a store employee (especially a Publix employee!) should know better.
I have to say that whoever was in there had to be terrrified when they heard Kingston scream and realized they were about to walk out to a legitimate family. I would have almost been too embarrassed to come out.
I TOTALLY agree! That's never happened to me, but if it had i would be mad! On the other hand I have been to one target's "family bathroom" and someone had peed ALL over the floor!! If you use it or your kids do...you need to be considerate of others and clean up after yourself!!!....i mean it could have been an employee but who knows these days!!
With you for sure!! It is just wrong for store employees to use that restroom. We work hard to even make it to the restroom and then to wait on them is ridiculous. Don't they have their own somewhere behind those EMPLOYEES ONLY doors?
