So it begins

[shankyknitter]

So back story. I have a job again! yay money! After being unemployed since january this pleases me. I work at the Queen of Milk Products. Sad yes, but its a job.

I have discovered on day one that apparently it is a good idea to mumble your order in some foreign language known as 'gangsta' and make references to the poster that the person taking your order (me) can not see. Then this ritual involves complaining to that person's co-worker that the person who took your order must be deaf and a moron since you clearly ordered a strawberry large thingy instead of a plain oreo large thingy.

optional ending: demand refund, get owned by co-worker for being a unintelligible dumbass.

yay job! and if your work is anything like the one i used to live down the street from...you should have lots of stories for us ^_^

oh, and i tooootally know what you mean. i hate it so much when people point at what they want. very tempting to say "use your words..." like you would to a 3 year old.

Congratulations on having the job at last. And may you have only the best and sweetest customers.

It isn't sad. You have a job! Celebrate!

How'd your coworker own "gangsta" idiot in the end?

[shankyknitter]

The idiot went to my coworker and the conversation went something like this

I: ijiot
C: coworker


I: dude I think that chick's gotta be deaf or somethin' man. know what I mean?
C: No.
I: I ordered this thing on the poster out here, the biggest one ya got. What does she give me? sure as shit wasn't that. you know what I mean?
C: No we don't. We can't see the posters back here, for all we know you're pointing at a steaming pile of shit in the parking lot. In which case you'd be pointing at yourself. Its also her first day, cut the lady some slack. Here's your new drink be grateful she didn't spit in it.

This is also the only co worker who wasn't talking about prom. Also the only male aside from the managers who works at my location.

...i think i might want to give that man a hug

[shankyknitter]

I did. He was a confused little snarky teen.

[chainedbarista]

lol at racket man.

yes, severe pwnage for the severely stupid; gangsta is not a new language, unfortunately, kiddies these days seem to think it is.

Yay for jobs and at least one awesome coworker!

Mmmmmm "thingys" are so good, especially when they have the Thin Mint ones.
