It's Opposite Day!

the owner would staff her. by herself until the store closed at 12:30 at night.

We work nights alone too, but my store closes at 10, during the last two hours of our shifts someone (either the owners or someone at head office) is watching us on the cameras for safety's sake, we have two different silent alarms plus one we can wear around our neck if we so choose, and there's a bar next door where a bunch of surly Slavic dudes hang out. They know us and if we were ever in need of help they could get to us in .5 seconds.

Thats good

I personally don't see the need to have a store of that nature open past 9 or 10 anyways. This isn't 7-11. Do you REALLY need that lube at midnight? :P

entertaining post btw.

I dunno, the later at night it is, the more likely you are to need it, ya know?

If you wait til you need it to get it, it is likely already too late.

I can understand about hiring female staff. The "toy store" I go to is owned by a lady about the age of my grandmother. She's friendly, forthright, and a hoot to talk to. Great customer service too! Anytime you buy something, she makes sure it works, (free batteries), and gives plenty of use & care instructions. Plus their prices are less than the sleazier porn stores across town. I've made a point of making my bachelor party gifts stuff from there- some nice massage oil, a friendly "sexy" game (like strip/kiss dice) and some good lube. Can't beat good lube. There's even a brand out that's not water soluble- great for the shower or hot tub.

Tell that to guys who do the late night "rain coat" run.

Oops, talk about shooting myself in the foot.
Actually I was referring to one of his many movie roles, in which he quoted "Well it's the opposite of yes". I'm pretty sure the character was english, but I could be wrong. Either way, my bad.

I think that movie was League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in which he played Alan Quartermain. In which case, yes, he was supposed to be English.

Has Connery ever been in a movie where he's supposed to be Scottish? Even in Highlander, I don't think he was. My favourite has got to be the Scottish Russian submarine commander a la The Hunt for Red October.

Me: It's not going to make anyone want sex with a stranger.
SB: Do you have anything that will?

Looks? Charisma? Enough money to bail out GM?

Male customer: You should get a name badge that says Yo.
Female customer: But have it written backwards so when you slam it on his forehead it prints it on his face.
Me:

That was (as the kids say these days) "full of win."

In "Highlander", Connery played an Egyptian with a Spanish name and a Japanese katana.

Years ago I shared a house with a girl who woked at a local adult store. This one also had a "theater" and private rooms to watch films in. She quite often worked alone at night, so I would frequently hang out with her so we could walk to the station together. Used to get some real creepy characters there. On quite a few occasions, we were offered rather large sums of money to participate in some of their more obscure "recreations" needless to say, we kindly rejected their offers.

"You might try soap and water. On yourself, not in her drink!"

You know, regular washing has never attracted women to me. Wonder what else I'm doing wrong?

It's the sign around your neck, mate. Women don't like it when you advertise that particular feature.

[Rapscallion]

Even if the sign's in Braille?

And it's hung around the right neck?

I think he went down some time back. He should be back up for air soon . . .
