I have not been here. I didn't feel like it. Seems I have lost my best friend we had conversed back and forth in email and she just stopped. I have tried several times finally just gave up.
I am doing a seasonal job of giving flu shots at a large retail chain. It sucks royally. The company I work for sucks they have no idea how hard they have made it just to clock in and out. Sitting for 10 hours watching the dregs of society parade past the table makes me nauseated. Half dressed, clothing too tight, no bras with nipples hanging at the waist makes me want to poke my eyes out. Screaming children running about like wild animals makes my glad mine are grown. We are supposed to stand in front of our table and hawk shots. No way. If you want it here it is come and get it, wait that is a song.
So while I was bored to tears I wrote some things down.
1) People on motorized carts do not watch were they are going. I have been backed into and hit by people on carts way too many times. One old lady had a kid about 6 doing the driving for her. I have seen these people fight over the carts, not a pretty sight. Some of these folks do not need a cart they can walk just fine.
2) No one is willing to wait in a check out line longer than 5 minutes. I have seen them go up and down the line looking for the shortest line. If it takes too long they get out of line and search some more only to come to the same line they left that now has 5 more people in it.
3) If you have a client at the flu table and are talking to them it is a given someone else will walk up and want immediate attention to the point of interrupting and butting in.
4) There are multiple express check outs no one will use them because they are self check outs. Heard one woman yelling "You need to open more check outs" she was truly ugly and deserved the nasty looks she got.
5) Not all babies are cute. Some are dog ugly so do not wave your kid in my face. My snot monsters are lucky they lived to teen years. The only reason I let them live is because they were cute.
6) Loud personal conversation on cell phones is even louder when it is a foreign language except for French. French is sexy all the time.
7) If fifty people come into the store at staggered times of 30 minutes apart they will all want to check out at the same time.
8) Observations. Fat people have cases of high calorie soda, chips, cheetos, and crap in the cart. Skinny people have paper towels and beer. Old people have dog food and toilet paper. I am still trying to figure out the correlation.
So that's the way it is.

Just for the record ...no...you have not lost your best friend. And the only reason I am posting this message here is because I don't have your e-mail address any longer. I do not keep anyone's e-mail address in my address book anymore due to getting spam crap from some bozo using address books to collect the addresses...instead I just keep a copy of a current e-mail letter from people in my mailbox and use it that way to contact them.
The last e-mail I got from you was a bulk e-mail that you sent to me and another person or two telling us you were doing interviews and someone might call us for references. I wrote back and said okee dokee..and that is the last one I have gotten from you. Apparently I deleted that one. Sooooo....I have not received any others from you in quite awhile.
I check this page often waiting from a new post from you.
So send me an e-mail so I will have your address again.
So there..............I still love you goofy. :)
PS...I never post here because I hate trying to "prove I'm not a robot" most of the time I can't even read the scrambled letters I am supposed to retype. So rather than spend 5 hours trying to publish a comment I don't bother. Too big of a pain.
