Thanks everyone, I was thinking to call corporate but wasn't sure if there's a regional manager or how that franchise works. The other workers in the store are very friendly and unless they are truly busy with other customers they will stop what they're doing and help, heck they even ask if you need help.

She needs to definately not be working there, or anywhere else she has to deal with the public.

If she treats customers that way, I can only imagine how she treats her employees. It cannot be good.

There are district and regional managers, but it is easier to just go straight to corporate.

I definitely would contact the corporate office and let them know, because if no one knows about the problem, it can't be solved. Hope they get a new manager, one with a little more CUSTOMER service attitude.

I would probably remind her of what her responsibilities as a manager are, one of which is to be helpful, courteous, and friendly, and perhaps if she didn't feel that was in her job description maybe a phone call to her manager right now would be in line, because after all you (being the customer) could be wrong. ;) Then take it from there.

I would not have bought the fabric if there was any question of it being short. we are quilters and need what we pay for just like anything else in life.
