  • Another Damn Senior Day (gross)

    "Didja gimme my discount?" "Yes."
    "Didja gimme my discount?" "Yes."
    "Didja gimme my discount?" "Yes!"
    "Didja gimme my discount?" "YES!"
    "Didja gimme my discount?" "Gah, if I throw a prune, will you leave?"

    /in the style of Bart, Lisa and Homer Simpson

    Well, at least I'm not a cashier. If I were I'd be getting subjected to the above all day.

    On the downside, here's what I had to deal with before going on lunch. This is where all the suck today happened.

    First, the service desk paged somebody to go outside and bring in carts. This somebody would've been me, since I was assigned to carryouts today--and there were lots of them.

    As I was getting ready to head out to the lot, I got paged for a carryout. No biggie, it's a couple bookcases.

    Came back inside and got paged to do another carryout. A little bitch of a carryout. A 52-inch-Sony-Bravia-inside-a-Chevy-Aveo carryout. It didn't go well.

    Came inside to have the customer fill out a hold form for the TV until they could come back with their truck (why God why?), and store manager paged everybody to attend an "important" huddle, so lunch still had to wait.

    It did turn out the huddle was fairly important. This morning one of the stores in our district had somebody pull a gun and rob the pharmacy of narcotics. So management and LP felt that would be a good time to review the robbery procedures with everybody--stay calm, cooperate, don't resist, don't be a hero unless you want to be an hero, etc.

    So finally off to lunch, right?

    Uh uh. I got paged by a manager who asked me "How strong is you stomach?" Let's just say some guy was sure to eat his Super Colon Blow this morning, and suffered a blowout all over the men's restroom floor. Manager said he'd have cleaned up the mess himself, but he has a very weak stomach and probably would've started barfing. So I don my gloves and mix myself up a bucket of bleach water and take care of this particular crime of humanity.

    Then finally I got to lunch, about 45 minutes later than I wanted to.

    And then not long after I got back, we had another code brown, this one in the women's public restroom, and nobody wanted to clean it up. So I got sent in.

    Wow, really? We give you discounts, you defile the restrooms with your corn-y shits? Is that how this goes? I can't help but imagine a couple old crones cackling at me "I had to remind you to give me my discount. So now you will endure my wretched butt stench. Endure it. Ennnnnnnddddduuuuuurrrrrrrrreeee ittttttttttttt....."

    Two poo cleanups in one day. That's a new record, and one that I hope stands for a long long time.

    You poor thing. I know from personally having to clean a lot of bathrooms how disgusting and horrifying those bathroom blowups can be-utterly disturbing. BLARGLE.

    As for those idiots who tried to rob the pharmacy, I hope they get arrested and tossed in a cage with a bunch of much bigger, much meaner convicts who will make them their toys. God, people like that make me sick.

      I've never had to do 2 cleanups in one day. They would find someone else. And how could you eat lunch after that?

          I don't know, but I'm sure he skipped the chocolate pudding...

            Oh, I don't think I would have, if I had it in my lunch.

            There's something I want to do, but it's too disgusting to mention here.

              I agree with the how did you eat lunch after that? I would've been like no you know what my appetite is GONE now. Two in one day? Irv, you poor thing. It seems you've done a lot of suffering at work lately. They should give you a raise to compensate...Then again I don't think the Clearance Swamp would want to pay you a million dollars an hour. Damn it!

                +1 point for the classic SNL reference.
                +5 points for each incident of swamp gas that you bravely tacked.

                  When I worked at an electrical retail store 15 years ago I did watch a customer who didn't want to pay the £10.00 delivery charge get his new washine machine into a Yugo. Interesting!

                  And then not long after I got back, we had another code brown
                  I love the expression 'code brown' .

                  I'm currently working at a supermarket and as much as I dislike the job, I'm glad I don't have to clean the customer toilets - yet! We have two instore cleaners who do this as part of their chores...although how they can tuck into their midday meals is beyond me.

                  Just before I went on annual leave/vacation 2 weeks ago, One of the Instore Cleaners was on vacation and the other was off sick. Had a few complaints about the state of them. I do resent them using them too after paying not too much money for their goods.

                    I work in a microbiology lab, we deliberately make food go bad, to an outsider the stench is horrible(salmonella smells like an open sewer), we don't even notice.

                        Like the previous talk wasn't disgusting already? I'm not sure if there is anything officially "too" disgusting to mention on here anymore

                          Leaping lemurs Batman. I have irritable bowel syndrome and on the one occasion when I did not quite make it to the toilet I did the best I could to clean up after myself. I can understand being embarassed when something like this happens - but jeebus at least let someone know or leave a note on the door...
