    NOT.

    Rules of the Road

    - DO NOT try to fuck with my head by throwing in oddball history questions at me expecting me to know the answers and then giving me flak when it's clear that I don't have a flying fig what the eff you're talking about.

    - DO NOT try to fake me out on the number of items you have. For that, you deserved the extra 5-minute wait in line while I had to call up a manager to sort that shit out because you confused me thinking you were being all funny and cutesey by confusing me, and I screwed up your order. My heart is as Gravekeeper intended, a cold barren wasteland hostile to all living things but most especially your precarious predicament. Therefore you shall receive no sympathy from me, for I am evil and mine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

    RUN AWAY!

    Once again I had the misfortune of encountering a customer whom I remembered from times past, and not in a good way. Why do I seem to attract the annoying ones? Or is it some universal law that all retail slaves are cursed with? The world may never know.

    I Hate You.

    Odds are very good that you are the *only* person in the world who thinks that putting your toddler's butt ON THE PLACE WHERE PEOPLE'S STUFF GOES (i.e., the conveyor belt) is even remotely "cute." I hate you not just for this but also because you are close to Someone Important at Ye Olde Slave Store and therefore are beyond reproach, so you can get away with committing this grievous violation against sanitation.

    (And yes, I did hose down the belt with cleaning solution as soon as the offenders had left. Guys? You might wanna think about giving your stuff a good bath before eating anything if you buy any foods the next time you're shopping...you never know what's been there before your things! )

    I Hate You Too.

    I now understand why senior citizens are so reviled and despised across the board. There are a helluva lot of cranky old bastards out there! (And today they all had to come where I am. Joy.)

    Her, I Will Kill And Eat. You, I Like.

    A coworker gave me a piece of chocolate.

    DO NOT TAUNT HAPPY FUN BALL.

    Okay, I take that back. You brought FRESH HOT BREAD from the bakery next door and put it within smelling distance, and I was working and thus could not partake of such glorious culinary delight. VERILY, YOU SHALL PAY.

    (I did buy some later on when I had free time. Now I am nomming my breads that I can has. :3 )

    Don't Cry For Me Argentina

    Yes Virginia, it is *gasp* possible for a person to not date and still be *double gasp* perfectly satisfied with life. Me, I will never be satisfied until I rule the world and have the power to vaporize folks like you with my mind (or at least give you diarrhea), but that's another story, and otherwise I'm doing all right on my own, m'kay?

    (Besides, I only attract creepy not-in-a-good-way-weird people and I have certain standards** that are damn near impossible to meet, so yeah. Not wasting my time.)

    (Standards = personal requirements that I will never bend, break or compromise on because these are things that are important to me. Observe:

    - Be childfree/never want any kids
    - Pick up after yourself (I am not your maid. Ever.)
    - Etc. as determined by me

    So yeah, I ain't easy to live with. )

    I REALLY Hate You.

    Found out that I am making less per hour than what I used to make. This...displeases me. A lot. Yeah, it's only a small discrepancy, but still. I was given the impression that I would be brought back at the same rate as what I had before, and while that wasn't anything special it's sure better than having less. I suppose my moneys went towards adding on all the extra bullshit flyers we retail slaves must now peddle in addition to our regular duties. That would explain a lot...!

    Thus concludeth the Book of Suck...for now...!

    sorry about that, amethyst; i agree on the baby's butt issue. i don't care if the food/drink that rolls across the surface is contained in a sealed package-it's still not acceptable; keep the kid in the kid area of the basket or wear one of those kid carrying backpack things. ick.

    old people and crankiness; maybe it's the low fiber diet? i agree, cranky old farts are a bane and should consider having a delivery service for their needs rather than inflict their crap on others.

    people with weird conversations that i could care less about...yah.

    mmm, fresh warm crusty bread. :3
    look! it's ghengis khan!
    Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

      It is a universal law of retail. As we all know (through bitter, bitter experience) all customers have the potential to become sucky and/or annoying at a moments notice. Customers tend to be attracted towards retail staff members for various reasons. Therefore, all retail staff attract the annoying customers. Simple retail logic

      - Be childfree/never want any kids
      Damn. That rules me out as a potential SnuggleObject(TM) then. I had always intended to become a parent eventually, if only to prove that it is still possible to raise a child properly, so that he/she becomes a polite, helpful, generally pleasant-in-all-circumstances human being.

        Guess that explains it then. Sucky customers are their own walking black holes!

        Oh, I know it's possible, but it's not something I'm willing to sacrifice key parts of my life for. (That, and I just have no interest in it. I knew I was CF even when I *was* a kid.) Some of us just do better solo. ^_^

          awesome; a minion of destruction, i dare hope?

          yah, i don't know how the brave checkers manage to get through a day without strangling idiots; all the dumb ew behavior is what basically drove me (along with lack of opportunities in house) to hate my old job.

          i applied at see's candies yesterday; i may be using those with the mac as an after mac treat.

              It's called Happy Pills. Lots and lots and lots and lots and LOTS of happy pills. (YMMV; some folks may use alcohol or chocolate as their non-homicidal ointment of choice. Whatever makes ya happy, I always say.)

                I make an excellent minion.

                I have mastered fudge brownies, the Bacon Explosion, and the rare art of getting men to do what they're told in such a way that they're HAPPY to do it.

                Pretty sure there's some dark chocolate with chillies in left too, unless the Hubster has eaten it already.

                Just putting my application in early.
