Another Reason Why I Hate Shopping

This post took me back to the days of working retail during the holidays. I remember when Tickle Me Elmo first came out. A security guard got stepped on when he opened the doors the morning after Turkey Day. By stepped on I mean he was practically trampled. The last Christmas that I was in LaCrosse, I was working for the company that distributes the music to the stores (edited stuff for K-Mart and Wal-Mart thank you). Anyway, I lived closest to my largest account so I went there for the day after to work. I didn't really work though, it was more watching people lose their freaking minds. Shoving and pushing around to get a stupid toy, can't recall what it was that year. I just stoof in the music department and was SO happy that I didn't work there anymore. (I used to work in that very department at that very store so I knew all the employees from before and I felt bad for them. Well, a little bit) I'm glad I don't have to deal with anymore.

I have to point at that at this moment, my daughter is attempting to assemble a washing maching in her mouth, copper piping and all. Right, she some PVC piping too! I'll be right there Peanut.

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well,

I Can't Wait

I know of no one who agrees with me that Jason Mewes is hot. This is a bad example and this is definately NOT hot. That's ok though. I remember the good, forget the bad. I make no excuses for my taste*. For fans of Clerks , Chasing Amy , Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob , etc , check it out: P.S. I've been working 'til 11 or midnight most nights so I'm pooped. I'll blog more. I promise. Was I missed though? * Or lack thereof to some people
