The other day, on my birthday we went to the lfs where I work cos my sister wanted a new fish tank. Now, while we were there I was browsing the tanks to see what fish we had in. Lo and behold, half hidden behind a buckt on the fish tanks, was a beautiful siamese fighter (betta). He was gold but his fins had brilliant blue streaking through them and his body shimmered gold and blue and green when he moved. Big, healthy looking fish. Now, there is a colleague I really dont get on with. I told him I wanted this fish and he didnt say a word to me, got a bag, bagged it up and then proceeded to handle the bag VERY roughly, didnt get a paper bag to keep it dark, and all he said through the transaction was "thats the right fish?" and dumped the fish on the till and stalked off.






Can anyone guess what all that stress did to my lovely siamese fighter?

even if we dont get on, thats no reason to kill my fish. the fish died saturday night and I checked the water and that was fine. he was only in with a neon and 2 rasboras! so i maintain that the stress killed my beautiful betta. RIP, Cobra Bubbles.
 
that's horrible :( i cant believe someone would be so childish as to kill an innocent fish just cos of a personal grudge :(
 
well, he slags me off behind my back, refuses to speak to me at work, and I got him in trouble a few days prior to him stressing my fish:

there are two women at work who are in a relationship with each other and he was making homophobic comments about them so I told them who told the manager who gave him a warning. so he stressed my fish which ultimately killed it :-(
 
what a creul bastard. Hope i can say that here. I"d give him a piece of my mind, but dont get urself into trouble. Or, talk to the boss.

If I gave him a piece of my mind he would laugh in m face and then I would hit him and get sacked. :) But then I wouldnt have to see his ugly mug again! I am going to get my money back when the store manager is in :) and then get this stupid pig in big trouble!
 
Talk to the boss, surely poor fish handling and indirectly killing customer's fish would constitute to at least a verbal warning if not dismissal.

If it was my fish shop I would have fired him on the spot as purposly distressing a fish is very cruel.

i say put him in a big bag and shake him to death... then he will know what did that fish went tru...
Ya took the words right out of my mouth. Not only is he a bigot but he obviously has no respect for living creatures. You probably can get him fired. Hes probably been involved with alot of fish that have been returned dead. Hopefully your manager will put 2 and 2 together.
 
Dude get some hot sauce (da bomb final answer? works best) and somehow spill it on his backside. the capsacin will work throught hisclothing and give him a case of inflamed 4$$
 
Theres no point trying to get your own back by doing petty things like that, just get him fired and banned from the shop for such wrecklass fish handling.

I couldnt cry (my friends were over for my birthday) but I was that upset. I couldnt wait to take a picture of my betta and post it on here becuase I thought it was so beautiful. I took a video of him with my new digital camera. I wish I hadnt deleted it.

Phil ruined my birthday. Oh, wait, am I allowed to name the sicko on here?
