Expect no gratitude from the sucky: WM woes

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

*tee hee* I have a yellow t-shirt with a little monkey eating a banana on the front. When I wear it, I ask people (who I know well, of course) if they want to touch my monkey.

I'm happy like a little girl.

Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance.....

if someone is pulling any kind of "card" (be it race, gender, eye color, whatever) for not being treated *better* than everyone else...

*points at her nail polish thread* I'm not asking to be treated *better* than anyone, I'm just asking for equality. And, yes, I will pull the gender card, and I do believe I did.

You all are just hating because you don't like short Irish/Bulgarian married women with glasses! Now, just give me brand new BMW and we'll call it even.

yeah. there's nothing wrong with asking to be treated equally

it's the ones who want to be treated like they're gods and goddesses - especially at the expense of everyone else - i can't stand.

what does riding the bus have to do with accepting a check? I usually ride the bus 2 or 3 days a week and I know that if I don't get money in my account on time my checks won't clear...

a woman comes into our store with a gun scope, atr our WM we don't sell guns and ammo. or gun acessories, such as scopes. I should have known something was sucky when this b-tch came through the door. Her opening salvo did not endear her to anyone in the store.
SB:Scope b-tch
M=manager
CSM=CSM
c=cashier

SB: Yo y'all i ain't standin' in any line. <Barges to front of line> i need to return this.
C: Ma'am there were people in front of you.
SB: So what? Yo' job is to wait on me. I need mah money back <slams scope down>
C: Do you have your reciept.

I'm surprised the rest of the people in line didn't say anything. I know I would have.

I've only had the "race card" pulled on me once, and it wasn't really an issue. The individual was drunk, but not "mean drunk." It was like he wanted to be abusive but didn't know exactly how to go about it, and only really wanted to get his beer.

I diffused him by telling him, No, I would not sell him another beer because I felt he'd already had enough, and then turning and asking the little girl who was with him if she was thirsty, and then giving her a glass of ice water (it was a hot summer day at the flea market).

Luckily, security caught up with them after they left my cart and got him to take a cab. I don't think he was capable of driving himself and the girl home.
