The perfect place for the bathroom?
I was doing some Christmas shopping the other day, and I was inside a Sears. (Cuz we all know how happening a store like Sears is for the holidays.) As I was strolling around, checking out the Christmas displays, I suddenly got the call of the wild (a.k.a., I had to pee). So, I started walking around looking for the bathroom. As anyone who's been in a Sears will tell you, it's a BIG store.
Nope, not next to Housewares, nope, not in the young men's section...Jewelry? No dice....Bedding? Swing and a miss.
I'm wandering all over the place and I finally see the sign "Men's Restroom" with an arrow pointing to the left. Ah, here we are, westward bound...so I turn to my left and I am staring directly at....the women's lingerie section.
Huh? I mean...um...cool!...(I think?)
Let me get this straight...the men's bathroom is behind the women's lingerie section? You mean, in order to use the men's bathroom I have to walk past sections and sections of teddys, nighties, silk robes, and bras?? Oooooooooook.
I'm trying to figure out the logic here. Is the lingerie business suffering? Has business been sliding? What's the thought process...."Well, when guys pass by all these sexy outfits, they'll be struck with a thought that they really ought to pick something up for the wife or girlfriend?" Pffft. Yeah, right. The day the lingerie business starts losing money is the day they're serving ice water in hell.
Or is it more like this..."Men will walk through, see all the outfits, and stop and gawk for a minute, and every woman who sees a staring guy will instantly label him a perverted idiot, thus widening the gap between men and women even more."
I'm confused. Though I did have one question...does this mean the Ladies' Room is located behind the power tool section? (It isn't.)
How odd. And consider this...if you're coming form the opposite side of the store and need to use the bathroom, not only are you walking through the "naughty clothing" section, but you have to walk through the women's SHOE section first!
Logic...where for art thou??
