Wednesday: The New Monday

Do you ever have those days where you go into work and you're in a genuinely great mood only to have ruined by complete and udder idiots? Yeah. Me too.

I would have sworn that tonight was a full moon or at the very least, I screwed up my days of the week and it was actually Monday. Sadly? Neither of those events occurred. Damn it.

On a happier note though, we found out yesterday that a regular customer that has been MIA for a few weeks is ok. She called yesterday and in talking with her, we found out she developed Bell's Palsey. Oy, I was so worried about her. She came in tonight and bless her heart, she's so damn cute. I would guess (and I'm horrible at age guessing) that she's in her mid/late 60's (don't shoot me!!!). She was wearing a pair of purple sunglasses that look like the kind my kids wear. She said she wanted to get people looking at those and not the side of her face that isn't moving. I told her she looked beautiful no matter what and guess what?

SO TRUE!

also? One of the quietest, non confrontational people I know at work yelled at some teenagers to leave the store because they were all sans shoes. Who the hell comes into a grocery store, in November, with just socks on (two of the guys) and no socks/shoes/jesus sandals/booties on the other guy?? Idiots do, that's who. And when they ignore the front end manager telling them to leave? Oh my. Watch out! They looked at her when she asked them to leave the first time and said they were almost done. She said to leave immediately and they looked away and kept shopping. That's when the poo hit the fan. I'm sure in her head she was saying, "Oh hell no they did not just do that" but she paged the manager on duty and the boys hightailed it out of there.  It was a great laugh for us after the fact. Sometimes when you've had the crazy ass night we had? It's all you can do to make it.

You have to or you go crazy.

So.....a favorite customer is doing A-ok and J-Lo got to yell at some teenagers. Ahhh maybe the Wednesday wasn't so bad after all.

I love my job.

Most days.............

Please do not ask me to email photos out, I get entirely too many requests for them. These are the ones that I have at home, thanks to a couple of sources.

Customer Appreciation Day

Dear Crotchety Broad, While I love my job and think it's the easiest one in the world to have, I do not think dealing with your ass was easy. Here are some highlights from my fabulous time with you: When your cashier is ringing up your precious produce, putting the codes in (from memory thank you very much), don't start trash talking her. I didn't hear you ask if I needed help because, well, um, I was busy ringing your shit up. When I look up because I heard something , don't look at me and say, " HELLO??" all sarcastic and shit. I will squish your tomatos, avocados and bread. When I ask if you have coupons, that's generally a sign that I am not a mind reader, can't see in your purse and can't predict the future (contrary to what you may think dear customer). As a refresher, here's our coversation: Loverly Cashier: Did you have any coupons today ma'am? (and that ma'am part may or may not have been choked out of my throat) Crotchety Broa...

She Was Heartbroken

After reading about Kim and Reggie breaking up, the Monkey had a moment of silence to reflect on the love that is no longer there. And then she ate part of the page. Fiber! She needs fiber ya know! She wasn't as into the Saved By The Bell article like her favorite Auntie was (ahem) but she did kiss Zack Morris. No lie. Puckered right on up and layed one on him. He hasn't been the same since.
