I guess technically this was at work....
See I used to work at this marina over the summers. I didn't do it this year as I got a job with the government. This place is completely backwoods and most of the people got to know me pretty well. So I was down there today, building a dock for my dad's cabin, it being Father's day and all. Its basically an old pontoon boat that I riped apart and I'm using as a floating dock.
Here is the setting and why I am mentioning any of this at all....
I'm down by the launch, but not in the way, using a circular saw to cut 4x4x12 into the pieces I need. Now I'm basically doing this on the quick, using the uncut pieces in a pile like a mini work bench. Not exactly safest method but I knew what I was doing....
So I'm cutting away when suddenly the piece that I am cutting, moves horizontally from me and jams my saw up. It literally went flying even with my foot on it to hold it in place.
Seems a woman wanted to ask me something and she got sick of waiting for me to stop cutting....so she kicked the wood I was cutting, well nudge according to her. I didn't even realize she was even there as she was standing in my blind spot. Naturally I was a wee bit angry in that not only did she screw up my cut, she could have severely injured me. When I angrily voiced this to her, she responded with
"Maybe your boss should teach you the proper way to speak to a customer"
Again, I don't even work there anymore. Plus, I had never met her before, so she wasn't a regular, and most importantly, she risked my fucking life...so what did she need to know that was so important?
"What body of water is this?" All this insanity...just so you all know...I was literally standing under the metal historic plaque for the marina (it was built 60 years ago) so I guess not only is this woman a dangerous moron, she is also illiterate...
