I took care of that for you.

I hate when people make mountains out of molehills.

whoa.. lets not go overboard here.. I might have to agree with that one..

*Rage* To the driver of the green minivan I encountered on my way home from school:

A Jesus fish on your car is not a free pass to be a bad driver!! It certainly doesn't mean you can attempt to defy the laws of physics!!

/rage

Well considering 99.9% of religious beliefs are based on defying physics.... :D

...dude don't bring that into this thread.

-.-

I hate liking a girl when she doesn't feel the same, or even notice that you like her. :-/

1.When paying with a credit card it is your obligation to have government issued photo I.D. available to show your cashier. We don't ask for it for fun, or because we want to take up your time, or even because we're a different race (I've had that accusation). We ask because we know that credit card fraud is bad for you and for us. But mostly you. This is especially annoying when YOU have written "check I.D." on the back. Why would I not ask for I.D. when it specifically requests it? Honestly, I'll sleep fine at night if you leave and don't buy your stuff but it actually would bother me to accept a credit transaction when I have no idea if it's you or not.

2. Don't try to exchange without a receipt. For all we know you stole it and it was the wrong size. A store credit is quite generous without proof of purchase. Don't complain. I also don't care that it was a gift. We're trained to always ask if the customer needs a gift receipt so chances are we asked, they said no, and if they had changed their mind they could have come back to get one. Of course you can always talk to my manager, but trust me he's not going to do anything for you that I haven't done and will not be anywhere as sweet if you're at all rude.

Side note, I got hired at Target and my orientation is Friday! This means a way better schedule and time when I can actually chill with friends and more hrs oh and the pay is better too!

Still deciding if I should hang onto BAM as a side job, but not sure if that will work.

This also explains my absence from Plime.

Bring what dudette?

And what really pissed me off the other day in the supermarket was an eldery man who pushed in front of me in the line and plonked his shopping on the belt. When I mention that there was a queue he said, and I quote, "I died in the war for you youngsters, if it wasn't for me you'd be talking German right now"

Now I did notice a couple of things wrong with that comment :) but it's just a great example of some elderly people that piss me off because they think they can be rude just because they are old.

I don't hate the elderly btw, just the ones who are asshats :D

True Story:

Last year, or maybe a few years ago, Mr. Monkey and I were headed back east across the Cordillera when we encountered a line of traffic that was lined up behind a motorhome. There were probably 50 or 60 cars and trucks here, and this motorhome was crawling through the pass. Being the double-lined windy mountain road that pass is between RevelsToke and Golden, nobody could pass this moron for the longest time. As we got closer, we could see it had a giant 'Jesus Loves You' sticker across the back of it, with countless other little Jesus stickers on there too, including the fish.

Good drivers pull over and let everyone pass by, these people weren't good drivers so people were honking, and as I later found out, giving them the finger in thanks for spending the previous half hour driving at 50kph. We passed by, and then soon pulled over at a lookout spot so I could pick out some fossils and we could give the dog a leg stretch and a pee break.

This motorhome pulls over just as we're leaving, and I could hear the conversation of the drivers. They're old, small white-haired people who looked somewhere in their 70's.

Woman:"I just don't understand why all of these drivers are in such a rush and were being so rude!"
Man:"They're all too rude and young to understand that you should be kind to someone like us. Why would anyone honk like that at a man of god?"
Woman:"I had hoped that the banner would make more people happy and make room for Jesus; maybe if they'd just read they'd realize they don't need to be so angry all of the time......"

Mr. Monkey and I laughed hysterically pretty much until we got to the border.

*edit* I'm not saying that Christians are bad drivers; if anything I'm saying that clueless old people shouldn't be allowed to drive.

I hate NASA, I hate space travel, I hate sonic booms that are so loud you check the AP wire to see if the shuttle blew up over your house.

Total waste of tax dollars.

I'm guessing you didn't grow up anywhere near an airbase?

I remember fighter jets skimming over the bales and the sonic booms would occasionally shatter the windows, not to mention piss off the cows.

Practice my foot! There was no need to go so far away from the base!

Can you snag me any Target dog stuff?? They don't give that stuff up! (at least in Ohio....they didn't even want my Stitch for a grand opening out here!!! )

Posters or old cardboard cut outs of Bullseye.

Actually, they have a website for Team Members where we can buy Bullseye stuff. =0)What are ya looking for exactly?

Why does my mother decide it is a good idea to get plastered on the night I turn a year older?
I realize she drinks every night, but I was hoping I would be important enough that she would stay sober, just this once.

I guess I was asking too much.
"Watch over your mother, I'm going to bed."
I have to babysit, again.

I'm sooo sorry we like to keep a clean and clutter free store so the rest of the customers can FIND books. If you wanted the books so bad, why didn't you just have someone at the register hold them for you? Oh btw, there ARE baskets but no one ever uses them!!

Customer: “WHERE ARE MY BOOKS?”

Me: “I’m sorry?”

Customer: “I had a big pile of books and I put them on that bench and now they’re gone!”

Me: “I’m so sorry about that ma’am. See, a lot of customers just leave books around the store so we regularly walk around and put away books that are left out.”

Customer: “WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!”

Me: “To keep the store in some kind of logical order. What books were they? I’ll help you find them again.”

Customer: “I don’t REMEMBER! You tell ME what books they were!”

Me: “I have no idea what books you had ma’am, but I can walk around the store with you and see if we can jog your memory.”

Customer: “I have foot problems! I’m very old! I can’t walk around the store all over again! Find my books!”

(At this point a manager intervenes and between him and 3 other employees we actually find all 7 of the books this lady wanted. She didn’t say thank you, proceeded to walk around the store without any problem, and then leave the books on the same bench again and leave the store without buying anything.)

I live about 3 miles from Redstone Arsenal, and have lived in its general vacinity almost my whole life. We don't get sonic booms, but we DO get rocket/shuttle engine tests that sound like the Earth is tearing in half. We also get more than our share of low-flying military aircraft at all hours.

This week has just sucked balls. Work has been high-stress because of a co-worker's total inability to act in a professional manner. Home has been stressful because my husband is so backed up on artwork that I never see him. I have a birthday coming up, and something bad ALWAYS happens on my birthday. My back is killing me constantly and I cannot afford to see a chiro. I've started smoking again.
I'm up at 3am because my insomnia decided this would be a good time to come back. And to cap it all off, I was just surfing Facebook looking for an old friend of mine whom I have lost touch with. Instead, I find her son's profile page... and he's in high school. I remember when he was born. I changed his diapers and watched him learn to talk. And he's in f**king high school.

Oh, and my cymbalta is no longer working so well on me, and I can't afford to see a doctor or a shrink to adjust my meds.

For the first time in my entire life, I came home from work yesterday and immediately got drunk.

I'm sorry RowanGrey. :(

{{{{hugs}}}}

Just keep breathing because you never know what the tide will bring in. (Castaway & my personal motto)

I come home from University and get drunk quite a lot so you're in good (or bad, whichever way you look at it) company. lol

pyoo pyoo.
