Sorry to all I owe private message's too I've been sick and not thinking completely. Either tonight or tomorrow you'll get my reply's.
So he's where?.
While I was on a...disliked route I had a woman just randomly approach me. When I told the regular what I had said it made a lot of guys around us start laughing.
Random Lady: Your running late.
Me: Yup.
RL: So...where is our guy?
Me: Not here.
RL: Well why's that?
Me: Cause he needed a break from you guys here.
The random lady just stared at me for a moment before walking away and muttering about the cheek of some youth. But she was smiling and shaking her head so... *grins*
New Knee's
First time I was on one route on a Saturday and so seeing people I hadn't seen ever before. But hey every route on my new swing I'll see on a Saturday...every six weeks. met this guy who i was warned was a grumpy old man.
Old Guy: Hello!
Me: 'Ey, hows things?
Old Guy: I'm old, grumpy and I need new knees.
Me: Well...we could go to JC Penny's and get a few mannequin legs...might find some knees.
Old Guy: *blinks and then start to laugh* I like you, we can keep you.
Me: *grins and head bows* You have a good day Sir.
Can't take my time...
It was late and it was rainy and if you know what those ad papers get like when their wet it's...icky. And slimey...and just ick. During the last part of the route, literally last ten minuets, I had to get a letter signed for.
Coming up to the front door I knocked and waited while I heard movement inside. Starting to write up the slip I sighed softly and started to scan the letter just giving them a few extra moments to come to the door. After getting the slip fully written I knocked again and still no one came. So I put the mail and slip into the mail box and started to turn away. Just as my foot hit the last step and was about to 'attempt' the letter the door opened.
Lady came to the door and started to talk about how she doesn't know if she should sign for the letter or not. As I tried to get her to either sign for the letter or not she kept talking herself in circles. Finally my scanner started to beep at me which it doesn't do until 10 minuets with no activity and something scanned in. She gave an exasperated sigh when I dared to look away from her to silence the scanner and finally signed for the letter, still talking in circles. And finally laid this on me,
"You know you can't talk all day and keep people like this. Wasting time by standing here and talking, better hurry up."
And she closed the door. I had said maybe ten different words in her whole tirade of if she should or shouldn't sign for her letter.
No English Boss
I was standing at the case and putting in mail when one of the bosses walked up behind me.
Boss: Hey Aethian what time you think your going to be out?
Me: No comprendo, no hablas inglas.
Boss: *sighs* Going to be a eight hour day?
Me: Eh.
Boss: Are you going to need help?
Me: Ciao.
Boss: That wasn't Spanish.
Me: Kein ist dieses. (Neither is this. German)
Carrier in the next case: I think she's mad at you.
Boss: No she's just being a brat.
Me: *snickering* Hey Boss?
Boss: Hmm?
Me: 10:30, no, I'll call.
Boss: *shakes head and takes down the info* Brat...
Only a couple bosses I can do that to...other carriers are impressed I still haven't gotten trouble for being such a brat at times.
There are more stories but I'm coughing, feel icky, and want more sleep. And before anyone askes, it's not H1N1. Got tested since I'm diabetic.
