Box Man

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

We've got this guy who comes into the store on our truck days and takes a lot of our empty boxes. I guess he either runs some kind of mail-order business or he sells lots of stuff on ebay.

He's a pleasant enough guy to deal with, but he likes to come into the backroom, where he does not belong, to get his boxes.

Last week, we were putting all our backstock upstairs and he walked right behind the forklift to the bailer and started pulling boxes out of there. Our acting supervisor had to tell him to get out, and he didn't do that right away.

If he does this again I don't think we'll be letting him take our boxes. We'd be in so much shit with our insurance company if God forbid something were to happen to him in the backroom while he was digging around the empty boxes.

Regulars who think they have the run of the place really piss me off. One of our wholesale customers used to pull around to our loading dock and come in through the back, past all of our parts sitting on shelves. To my knowledge he never took anything, but come on man. Use the front frickin' door.

The next guy used to come in to our front counter smoking a cigarette. Smoking I don't mind, since I smoke myself, but I'm not allowed to do it in the building, neither are you. My bitching a him about this met with a blank stare and a "Whateva, man." Dick.

Jaded - when my ex-husband's dealership banned smoking at the parts counter
(they got away with it for years) the 'customers' (mostly the wholesalers) behaved as if they'd just rounded up their families and shot them.

You know, that he makes Forts out of them

At this point, you reach up and pinch the cig right behind the ash. No burn from the lit bits, and you don't have to figure out where the super-soaker got off to.

Okay, I totally got "Spoonman" in my head now, except with "Box Man" lyrics...damn you, Irving!!

Box Maaannnnn....come together with your hands!
Box Maaaaannnnn...I'm together with your plan!

Taste earworm death! Although that is one of my favorite Soundgarden songs.
