In an hour I'll be headed to the beach, I'm glad I secured a carpool with how disastrous the situation was when the carpool sign ups weren't posted until Thursday due to a screw up on Facebook's part and the President not really noticing.  Granted she's been very busy so I can understand, but it was very stressful and I could barely sleep.

I get the weekend to myself.  Sunday I'm heading out again to babysit.

You know, i'm all for people having whatever opinion of me because I don't really care for the most part.

But you don't go five steps away from me after you buy your stuff in my line, act short with me, and then say "that guy has problems" out loud.

How rude. I don't need this.

Finally beat Derosa, I thank constant castings of Slow but it was such a pain in the ass.

Also someone brought the flavor contest lays, so far we tried Cappuccino and Bacon Mac and Cheese.  The Cappuccino was suprisingly okay and Bacon Mac and Cheese tasted like the Cheedar Sour Cream and Onion flavor.

In regards to workplace attitude...

Regardless if you absolutely hate your job, you still need to act professional.  Fake it if you have to.  Copping an attitude in a way that annoys customers will backfire on you as like it or not, the customer is always right.

I've worked in retail and behind the scenes, and I've known others who work in retail.  They will tell you that people can be assholes, but you can't be an [dark hold] to customers if you want to keep your job.

If customers are saying that you have a chip on your shoulder, then knock the chip off and act with civility.  You don't need to be happy, you just need to be courteous and professional.

We just watched a bee stumbled around drunk, one of the guys put it in a shovel and it suddenly flew.

It might've been tired.  I've picked up bees when they're tired.

Foot's sore, so I'm couch-bound again.

I haven't shaved in 2 weeks. I should probably shave.

Did I say anywhere that I was acting in an unprofessional manner? The guy wanted his oil filter bagged (I didn't bag it originally because usually with one item people don't want a bag, its something I'm used to) So I bagged it, quickly and quietly. There was no provocation, and he still decided to say what he said (again, not to my face, but rather like 5 steps away because he's a [Bumpity-Boom!]). I'm not in the best mood today, but I have done nothing but act professional.

I shouldn't get so worked up about it, and I'm really overreacting, but [parasitic bomb]'s just piling up. Yesterday I felt like they literally forgot that I was supposed to go home at 11 so while everybody else who got done at 11 was sent home at the right time (Around 10:50.) I was stuck waiting for 20 more minutes thinking somebody would come and take over for me (Being on self-checkouts, there needs to be an attendant present). Instead, at 11:11 (Not just late, but past my availability.) they eventually just said I could go without somebody to replace me. I get that they probably do not care and that I'm literally an expendable puppet to them but its [tornado fang]ing demoralizing.

And before somebody says "Then find a new job and quit bitching to us." I'm already looking.

I just won a sandcastle contest by making cars.

Oh cool, Cowboy Bebop's re-release is coming in december.

It having both Amazon and Funimation Shop limited editions though... not so cool.

Some person spelt Wookiee as "whookey".

How the heck do you make a mistake like that? I've never seen that misspelling in my life.

Heading home from the beach, it was pretty fun.

Blargh, it's the return of the dull ache.  At least my foot will be colorful when I babysit on Monday.  I just hope I don't hurt it again.

We'll see when they get posted on Facebook. -u-'

I hope you wore some killer sunglasses and made me proud!   8B

Sakura Leic

There should be one with them on, I bought them yesterday and they work quite well.  The best part is they fit over my glasses.

Perfect. That's the pic I care about the most!  8)

I'm just glad I got rid of the sand on my body, I really don't like sand.
Current playthrough: Chrono Trigger and God Eater Ressurection

Protoman Blues

Yeah, not the biggest sand person either!

Sakura Leic

It's also very tough for me to move in it, seriously when we would walk on the water I'm like 10 feet away from the group thanks to the sand.

Oh look, I found a time sink.  The music I can do without as I make a bunch of character avatars...
