  • I said "Watch your step" damnit!

    Today somebody knocked over a spray bottle of surface cleaner, the spray top broke off, and the cleaner spilled all over the floor.

    I grabbed the mop, bucket, and wet floor signs and went to clean it up.

    Barely had I started when a woman interrupted me to ask where something was.

    Me: Oh, watch your step, there's a puddle here.

    The fucking idiot woman looked down at the floor, saw the puddle, saw the wet floors signs flanking it, then STEPPED RIGHT INTO THE MIDDLE OF IT!!!

    She didn't fall, but I almost wish she had because since she stepped in a puddle of CLEANER it started attacking the dirt on the bottom of her shoes and caused her to track dirty footprints all down the aisle that I had to mop up.

    wow...what a dummy. but i can't help but chuckle at the sight of you cleaning up after he steps. Reminds me of an old cartoon...i don't know what it was, but the person would take a step, and the other would clean it up behind them. lol
    I can only please one person a day, today isn't your day, and tomorrow doesn't look good either.

    When someone asks you a stupid question, give them a stupid answer.

      Well, you could be thinking about a new cartoon. There's a scene like this (kind of a running joke, really) in Wall-E.

          One DMV once had a customer collapse in the lobby. Diarrhea and other bodily fluids stained the carpeting. While a Bio Hazard team was on its way (the ambulance workers recognized him as a know intravenous drug user), the manager (who, I am sorry, should have demanded permission to close the office) set up barricades to prevent customers from walking through the mess.

          But one mother allowed her toddler to run through the mess.

          I'm sorry, I have to go use the
          To seek it with thimbles, to seek it with care;
          To pursue it with forks and hope;
          To threaten its life with a railway share;
          To charm it with forks and hope!

            Sounds like she wanted to fall then sue you then say the sign wasn't clear she didn't hear your warning etc.
