  • Why Are People Bitches On Sundays?

    By the time today was over I was DONE WITH TODAY.

    My CW comes out of the bathroom with this look on her face. I know that look. She doesn't even have to say anything. I say "REALLY?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" And then I put my face in my hands and started shaking my head muttering "You've got to be fucking kidding me, my god I hate my life. Is there anything on the floor in there?"

    She didn't know if there was anything on the floor in there. But turns out the perpetrator was actually the girl in line behind her father who was buying something. She disappeared out the door VERY quickly.

    I had to pressure wash the entire stall. There was shit everywhere. She didn't even ATTEMPT TO FLUSH IT. It was on the seat, on the back, on the back wall, the side wall, the floor, and the floor IN THE OTHER STALL (don't ask, I still don't know.)

    Apparently while we were cleaning it there were women who were pissed that the bathroom was closed.

    Um. Fuck you and the horse you rode in on, ladies. Just fuck you.


    Background: The milkshake freezer is busted and the milkshake machines manage to spray milkshake everywhere if you take one out of the walk-in freezer (they're kept too cold, milkshake freezer = 10 degrees, walk-in freezer = -10 degrees).

    SC: You need to stock your milkshakes.
    Me: Did you see the thermometer in there? It's in the red part. That means they would all melt. It's broken. No milkshakes.
    SC: ...oh. Well that's all I came here for.
    Me: Have a good one.
    SC: ....*leaves*


    Watched a guy try to push open the employee's only door for a good minute. I'm assuming he thought it was the bathroom. I just kinda turned around and walked away.


    Some guy was talking on his phone while trying to ask me if we had cooking pans. I actually had the words "Are you talking to me?" come out of my mouth. We're a gas station. Why in the blue blazes would we sell COOKING PANS? ...Wal Mart is THAT way.


    Instead of telling me that there was no toilet paper in the men's room a guy just took some off the shelf. His wife came up and asked if they had to pay for it. I told them yes because THAT'S NOT THE TOILET PAPER WE USE. Freaking A, seriously?! Just fucking TELL ME. GODDAMN.


    On the way to work I witnessed a car weaving in and out of traffic, desperately passing people. Where were they going? ...my gas station. We're not going to disappear, people. Whatever you need at the gas station is NOT THAT IMPORTANT.


    SC: I need XX.XX on pump XX.
    Me: Okay so XX.XX on XX?
    SC: Yeah.

    Comes back in.

    SC: IT'S NOT WORKING. PUMP YY.
    Me: Oh, you told me pump XX.
    SC: I SAID pump YY!!!!
    Me: ...no you didn't. I have it on XX. But fine. I'll transfer it.

    You fucking dingus, seriously, I can't even mistake those pumps on the screen by a miss-step of the finger because the buttons for them are on OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE SCREEN. DON'T YOU FUCKING LIE TO ME.

    I stared at him the entire time he pumped and when he got in his car and left. Some people are just lucky I don't know where they live.


    I wasn't on the clock and wasn't in uniform for this. I'm just walking through the store and this old woman is walking toward me from one of the doors. I have a counter to my right and she's slightly to the left of me so I can't move any more to the right but she could move to the left to give me some room. I had to turn myself sideways to get around her and even then I brushed her.

    She snottily states, "EXCUUUUSE ME." When I brush her.

    My response: "Excuse you then."

    She was rather huffy after that I should say.

    Damn. Your day started off literally shitty and, amazingly, got worse. Seriously, is wrong with people?! There is no reason or excuse whatsoever for that kind of behavior.

    Have a cold one. Or three. You deserve it.

      "EXCUUUUSE ME."
      Two possible responses to that, IMHO:

      1: "You're excused."

      2: (After giving the person a few seconds glance) "There is NO excuse for you!"

              Every time I say "Excuse me" and I'm ignored, I'm reminded of the joke "At Harvard, we don't end our sentences with prepositions" because the second time, I'm tempted to say, "Excuse me...asshole".

              As for the first one....maybe some people are right...evolution is a hoax and we are still poop flinging monkeys.

                I will mention that I've seen gas stations sell the most random and bizarre items. Hey, why not ask? Maybe you had some.

                    The same reason they're bitches on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

                    Because they're bitches.

                      Exactly.

                      Why be a bitch just ONE day out of the week when you can be one all seven?

                        One more for the list.

                        3: Uhm, warm night...cold beer...poor judgement on the part of two people and a broken condom?

                        I've used that a few times when someone pulls out the snotty "excuse me" line.

                          The poop flinging monkeys would like to point out that SCs of the nature Gaki was dealing with were much lower on the evolutionary tree than they are.. which is why the SCs are covered in poop and have attitudes to match!

                            Slightly off topic but I saw that played out on "Not Always Learning"
                            A student asked where something was, ending it with "at"? and instead of answering the teacher corrected him. So the student asked again ending with, "at, NOW."

                            and no only some people fling poop. but wait... they eat with those hands no?

                              Sundays are notoriously slow for me, however, only the absolute losers come in on that day.

                              I'm the manager, and since I have other obligations to do after the store officially closes, I feel that I should be allowed to close a few minutes early. There is nothing in company policy that says you can't, and my boss never has complained about us doing this.

                              So I tend to close up around 10 of, sometimes 15 of on a particularly slow day, and yet I find on Sundays the worst offenders are banging outside on the door to be let in.

                              Cue two Sundays ago, I'm counting out and all of a sudden, after not having a customer for the past two hours, I hear this pounding on the door. I look up at the camera monitor, and see this guy hitting the door. I look at the clock, it's 5:55. Nope, too little, too late. I don't even bother going to the door any more, because they'll demand to be let in.

                              I worked on Monday, and in comes the guy in question.

                              SC: Hey man, I was here at 5:40 and the door was locked!
                              Me: Sir, I locked the door at 5:50, you were banging on the door at five of.
                              SC: But your sign says you close at 6:00!
                              Me: Sometimes we close early, what was your reason for waiting until the last minute to come here?
                              SC: THE LOCAL SPORTS TEAM WAS ON!
                              Me: That... really isn't an excuse. Next time get here a little earlier.
                              SC: I should get a free rental, then.
                              Me: Nah, I think you should just get to the store a little earlier.
                              SC: I think I should be allowed to rent a new release.
                              Me: No, I think it would be in your best interest to just show up earlier.
                              SC: But I wasted gas driving here!
                              Me: And I'm wasting time and energy going over this with you. You won't be treated any special because you waited until the last possible moment to get here and weren't let in. One more word about it and you'll be asked to leave.
                              SC: I'll go to another video store, then.
                              Me: Okay, have fun with that.

                              So he left and I was leaving as he walked in, and I said "So much for the other video stores, huh?", and he didn't even say anything.
