  • Another Damn Senior Day: May 2011

    ...old people....old people EVERYWHERE....

    Cougar in a motorized cart

    While doing various work things this morning, I passed some wrinkly old woman in one of our motorized shopping carts.

    I passed her again doing something else.

    And again later. This time she cooed at me "People are going to start talking if we keep meeting like this! Giggle giggle COUGH."

    Ummm, thanks. Fuck. If anybody needs me, I'll be over here tearing my skin off and showering in bleach.

    Stack chair shenanigans

    About half an hour before I was to leave today, I ended up dealing with a couple people wanting four of our stacking fabric patio chairs, but they couldn't find four that weren't wobbly because leg caps were missing, or for some other reason. So I got to drag every single one of those chairs we had in the back out to the floor, so they could sit in them and test them for wobbly-ness.

    Then, when they had four that passed inspection they instructed me to load them up on a cart for them and take them to the front of the store. Sans thank you.

    They still hadn't checked out when it was time for my to finally go. How do I know this? Because they found a little plastic cap missing off one of the chair legs, and made me go to the back and rip one off another chair (which nobody will now want) and bring it to them, and since there was nobody around I could dump this on so I could leave, I had to do it.

    I understand wanting quality when you're dropping a lot of money. But why couldn't they have found somebody else to pester? Or better yet, shop someplace where their distribution method doesn't involve stuff being handled by 20 different people before the customer finally buys it?

    Number of farts walked into today:

    Impossible to determine, since I am still a tad snerfly. So I'll just say a billion and let somebody else try to disprove it.

    Okay then... lets see, assuming you worked 8 hours with no breaks...

    So at a billion fart walked into, that would mean that someone would have had to let one rip right in front of you an average of 34722.2 (repeating) times per second...

    ... of course I only did the math here because you asked for it. Sorry. :P

    ... now, how to harness that much natural gas for the production of power...

    I know!! Strap a wind turbine onto Irv's back!!

      Now Irv, if you could have brought yourself to say something along the lines of "I think they already are, gorgeous" you would have made her whole year!

      (a friend of my mother's rather lost it a bit as she hit her late 80's. Used to lift her shirt and flash the youngish (around 25-45) cute guys. Thing is, she KNEW it made them cringe. That was exactly why she did it. If they managed to hide the cringe, she would tell them "Tell your Mama or whomever raised you, they did a good job. You're a polite young man.")

        Yeah, that seems about right. And I'm just another customer wandering through the store. Not that I ever contributed to the billion number.

          On a Senior Day? Don't you think you're lowballing your estimate here?

            I walked into a powerful one yesterday... I think I may be slightly green around the gills even now.

                I sowwy. I guess I didn't realize that joke was so offensive. I won't use it anymore.

                  Oh, I thought you meant HS seniors. You know, my dad (I was born when he was 49) thought he was good looking. He was, but he got old. One day he had my mom take pictures of him in a swimsuit. And he realized that his suken chest wasn't pretty. So he hated anyone taking pictures of him since then.

                  So show the old cougar how she looks from the security camera, and maybe she will be so shocked she will decide never to leave the house again.
                  Time! Time! Time is what turns kittens into cats.

                  Don't teach me a lesson; all I learn is that you are an asshole.

                    I think it was an okay joke, and actually the uglier she is, the funnier it is.

                      That sort of thing has always amused me. Well, so long as the other person wasn't being skeevy about it, anyway.

                        Why am i the only one who thought: "Irv the other white meat!" When he mentioned flaying himself and taking a bleach bath. WHY?

                        Though at least it was only one cougar, and not a whole pack of them. Imagine Irv little old ladies following you around The Swamp pinching your "adorable little hiney".
