Little things that make your day. (3 Viewers)

today i finally got around to applying for a volunteer position at this lovely little orphanage ( www.mchoice.org ) near my house. if i get it, it'll really make my day. 3 hours of uninterrupted playing with babies per week if i do!

that some kinda euphemism?
i like it.

no, it's an actual wee boy.
right now he's been playing draughts for an hour, by himself.
he's also in the process of potty training himself ("i have to go upstairs now. you stay HERE. i can do it by myself.")
 
It's rained enough that I can go kayaking two days in a row and it's the middle of May. .|..| .|..|

Climate change eh?

What happened? Tell thumped, we're listening!
i was facing off meats (which isn't even my job by the way.)
customer: sorry, do you know where the gallwooolilags [some mad meat name] are? do you know what gallwooolilags are even?
me: ah jesus, i couldn't tell you to be honest. i'm vegetarian. ho ho ho
him: hohohohohoho
me: hohohohoh

a few minutes later my boss marched up to me and tapped me on the shoulder
"
DID YOU TELL A CUSTOMER YOU WERE VEGETARIAN??

STOP TELLING PEOPLE YOUR LIFE STORY!!!!

THEY DON'T WANT TO KNOW, OK?!

ROAAAAAAAAR etc"

"what so you want me to lie?"
"yeah exactly, i do it all the time at the checkouts!"

i'm one of those big softies who whenever they get given out to they feel like bursting into tears for 5 hours. In fairness, the customer wasn't a bit mad he said in jest to her at the checkouts "sure what do you have a vegetarian working in the meats for ho ho ho?".
PRICKS. EVERYONE. GOD. :mad:

Jesus, I hated taking orders from pricks like that when I worked. Though you can always get your sweet revenge by doing things to loose the company money. If you work on checkouts only pretend to scan expensive items through and if your in the stock room lift what you can. Its your duty to steal from the bastards!
 
It may be the sheer fatigue talking or the nitrogen in my blood, but those Innocent smoothies make my morning: on weeks when I've felt sufficiently rich to purchase a 1 litre job.


Read the packaging carefully, little things to make you smile.
