hello lovelies....
here it is..the 3rd day of November. the year has just flown by fast and as usual the stupid keeps on going.
the Astros just won the world series in baseball. i think i'm the only one around my area that just doesn't give a shit lol.
seriously....
all day at work yesterday, the phone would ring. people asking about the newspaper or t shirts, and if we were selling tickets to a game coming up.
when i would say no, it would be well why? when are you going to get it..
somehow me answering those questions still didn't appease the idiot factor and they would call back repeatedly throughout my shift.
back to the recovery after the huge ass flooding event that created such chaos.
we are still not back to normal, but for the most part it's okay.
our awesome landlord has yet to repair the damaged walls that were taken out, and i'm so tired of hearing the manager whine about random shit about the units.
if i go outside i get barrages of questions, and i've yet to tell her to fuck off, but it's coming soon i do believe.
i'm lucky to have union through my job, so they came out and filed a claim for some money assistance to see if i qualify for a small check to pay for the loss of clothing, even though i already got a little bit of help.
there she was asking my husband who that man was, and i had already told him to lie and say it was the city coming out to see the damage in our apt.
that went over well, but hey i had fun messing with her head for a few days before telling her the truth.
woman pulled up outside my apartment and asked me, while i was just sitting there, what the rent was for the apartments we live in, and i told her everyone has different rent prices. she kept asking me what the average amount was and when i told her to talk to the manager, she just stared at me and grunted.
it made me laugh, and then i just got up and walked into the apartment to hear her screaming at me what a bitch i was.
yeah honey i know i'm the queen and you're just shit beneath my feet, but whatever.
you know the feeling you get when some people start looking at you while walking up and you can't wait to hear what comes out of their mouth?
sometimes it's amusing and other times it's just agitating.
i have to follow procedures when i'm working and how dare i not bend the rules "just this once", do i not know who they are? they're a regular customer!
mmk and then???
call the manager to ask the same thing i just told them the answer for and what do you know?! they tell me the same thing. i repeat it again and then just stand there, saying nothing while they walk away with their head shaking.
i firmly believe you have to be completely heartless and dead inside to work with the public. these brainless twits come up with the craziest shit, and they actually believe what they're spewing out.
"that sign says it's this price! i know what i'm talking about i'm not stupid! you don't believe me? why are you asking someone to check the price i just told you what it is!"
nobody has ever made them: show their id for beer or cigarettes before (i call bullshit), nobody has ever made them pay "price" for that item (it's what the store has it priced at), nobody has done this, nobody has done that!! (what the fuck do you expect?)
man came to pick up money sent to him through a money service, the numbers are off on the account for said transaction. i tell him THREE times, it's not going to work. tell him he will have to get the person who set it up to call and get it fixed.
he leaves, and then the mother of all bitches calls about how we are screwing him over, and screams at me for what i can assume was three or four minutes. i try to explain to her what's going on and she's not having any of it. i finally got a gut full of the bullshit and hung up. turned around and stated out loud, nobody is going to talk to me that way i don't give a fuck how old you are or how retarded you are.
i had three customers just staring at me while that outburst occurred and i never apologized.
nobody reported me, but i did tell a manager that i hung up and why.
it seems like i spend more time shaking my head at stupid shit people say or do, than i want to. i just can't deal with the "where's your brain" anymore.
i have actually told people something isn't working or can't be done to make them go away when they make my head hurt.
figure this one out. valid = legally or officially acceptable
now picture this. girl shows her driver license for something that needs id verification and i have to refuse it based on the fact that it's expired by a year.
she blows up on me stating it's valid. i tell her it's not because it's expired.
she still insists that it's valid because it came from the state.
i tell her again it's expired from the last year.
she keeps starting at it, then back at me and says it's still good.
i tell her it's good to prove who she is, but i can't take it because it's expired by ONE YEAR!
she spent ten minutes asking everyone around her what that even meant.
fucking
stupid
the guy with her knew exactly what i meant and told her.
she just wouldn't listen.
they left and came back to use his information instead and when i accepted it she got pissed off and asked me why his was good enough and hers wasn't.
i never bothered to answer her because I WAS DONE!
guy came to get his auto tags renewed and only had a paper id. we don't accept those as valid identification. he proceeds to tell me how it's illegal to refuse his id just because it's paper. i keep explaining to him the policy for not accepting the paper id. finally got tired of explaining and just called the manager to let them decide what to do.
they let him do it. i was pissed off at the management for that because if i had taken that same type of id for a beer or cigarette purchase i would have been written up.
oh well,whatever.
i can completely understand now why George Carlin considered the human race to be so full of what the fuck is this shit?!
i've resorted to calling people planet monkeys now.
yeah i'm bitter, sue me.
i'm outta here! ciao!
