We have P.E at Monday.

7 laps marathon. Or endurance running. Or hell.

7 laps marathon, bros and sisses, at the field.....

WHICH IS VERY GODDAMN BIG. As in, 4700-meters big, all in all. A great way to start the weekend, really. I dunno how I can run through all of that in one go. Seriously.

Get drunk and do stupid things? Hmmm. I have work, lol

Eh, me too. From 8:00 AM to 6:00. Thankfully today it was from 8:00 to 12:00.

Hehe, there was Life Guard training at the gym where I work at today, but I had to work, so I couldn't try out. I'm trying to sneak my way into the lifeguard position away from my supervisor's prying eyes laugh.gif
Elisabeth Hollow
Lifeguard training? Sounds useful! I also am also trying to slip into another job description. Apparently retail is not for those who are not a people person.

Or maybe it is...?
Elisabeth Hollow
Oh yeah... So this customer came up and was talking to me, asking me questions about various items in the store, then he says "You seem very knowledgeable about things. Were you born on a Monday?"

I said "No sir, I think I was born on a Saturday."

And he goes "Go look it up when you get home, then you'll know that men really DO know more than you."

I just did. I was born on a Saturday.

My favorite waitress was so sour with all the customers that we took to calling her "Pickles." Everyone always asked to sit in her section just to see how she would insult us next.

A friend of mine is a bit 'rotund' and as we were waiting for Pickles to come wait on us she was telling me about her boyfriend leaving her. Just as Pickles walked up to take our order, suddenly one of my friend's blouse buttons flew off with force and landed over 5 feet away.

Pickles' head followed the trajectory of the button, then she looked back at the girl. We all thought she was going to insult the girl's size, but instead she said, "Not even your buttons want to stay with you."

I guess she'd been listening in on the girl's conversation as she was nearing the table. Even my friend laughed, which was good because I was choking trying not to.


I know being a waitress is service industry and not retail - but if a sour waitress can draw customers to her, surely you can curmudgeon in customers to your products in retail, lol.



Elisabeth Hollow
That's hilarious!!!! All of my customers are so cranky though. The best I can do is act insulted at whatever they say. I like people well enough, but when customers come in, they're having a bad day and are just to pessimistic. I've had people spit on me for being bright and friendly when they were having a bad day. I think I need to learn to read people a bit better.

It never made sense to my why people take out their anger on other people when they're having a crappy day.

I remember when I was working as a mall cop (yes, haha, very funny mad.gif) people would scream at me for telling them to stop doing something they weren't supposed to do.

There's a figurative kind of spit? Because I mean, they projected saliva and phlegm from their mouths and aimed it at my person. I've had things thrown at me too. Not just a bag of chips, either. Blenders, bags of charcoal, even a silverware tray. People get really irate over ten cents. Even if I apologize and tell them it will be just a moment, I'll open the register, they'll screech at me and say I'm stealing from them.

If y'all go to a website called Not Always Right y'all will see I'm not the only one lol

When you have a two year old that needs food in his mouth as well as student loans needing to be paid off, a car note, and said two year old growing like a Hobbit drinking Ent tree juice, you kind of have to take what is dished out.

Now, one day I DID snap, and told a woman who was threatening me to try something. The thing about me is, I KNOW I can't fight, but I sure won't mind hurting your fist with my face. I told her this, and her boyfriend just started laughing, as well as my boss and coworker. She got angrier and told me to watch my back.

Another thing, when I'm angry and worked up, I get really sarcastic. I started turning around and said "I CAN'T DO THAT, I'M TOO FAT. Get out before I sit on you!"

They left. What started it? My boss caught them trying to steal diapers. My coworker knew them and said they don't have any kids. They came back later and started cussing at my boss, which what started the whole thing. I told her, politely, "Well ma'am, if it bothers you that much, you can leave and never come back." XD That's when she started screaming and cussing at me, and I told her to try something.

The wife and I get sick of this attitude people get when they've been caught out doing something wrong...I mean, if you can't handle getting caught, don't do the damned thing in the first place!!...

My daughter was getting bullied in school, so, in the end I went around to the girls' houses...I got crap off one of the mothers for hassling her...The other set of parents were two of the nicest people I've ever met...

But, the bullying stopped at that point...

However, not that long ago, one of the girls almost screamed at the daughter about the fact that she'd told me about it...Well, if she hadn't bullied in the first place fercryingoutloud!!... blink.gif ...Stupid cow...And I should know one...

That spitting is disgusting btw... indifferent.gif ...

Poor kiddos. I got bullied all through my childhood and highschool and as an adult, I'm sick of it. I pay my own bills and have my own family, don't come at me with your petty insults, and don't you DARE try to make me feel bad for doing my job correctly.

Sigh. People look at me and think, she's overweight, has glasses, is soft-spoken and friendly. Let's make her cry. I don't cry at insults anymore. I get really mad.

In middle school the other boys would call me names and try to beat me up. I was always stronger than them though so I was accused of being a bully by the teachers and the people who bullied me never got in trouble mad.gif

I am now thoroughly flattered.

I started teasing people in a good-nature'd way, and so far it's worked fabulously. This one woman let out a belch that would put a man to shame, and I said "Wow. Good job." and she cracked up laughing.

I mean, I was in a terrible mood all day, but at least she took it the way I meant it XD

I used to work with a girl that could belch like several men in unison. Some of them had tails on them at the end...really gross, and I mean puke-time gross. I'd be covering my mouth and gagging, and she'd laugh her head off at me.
