Trust.

Todays first word, kiddies, is, 'TRUST'.

As in, "I trusted a customer to return to me after their credit card was decined and the fucker stiffed me for $40, by not returning to pay for their eyebrow piercing."

Todays second word is, 'ANGRY''.

As in, "I am so goddamn angry that those bastards stiffed me. I shouldn't have trusted them in the first place but I consider myself an optimist, in a general sense, and they seemed quite honest. Fuck that. I still had to pay out the shops and my bosses share of that $40 ... out of my pocket."

Todays third word is, 'REVENGE'.

As in, "I have their name, address and telephone number -- but they live in California. Anyone in California want to exhibit a little bit of revenge and go knock on their door? I'll split it 50/50 with you. You'll make $20 and at the same time spread fear in the hearts of all that Artistic Armor in Tampa is indeed one of the most ruthless of all the tattoo shops in America when it comes to skipping out on payments."

Todays fourth word is, 'JOKING'.

As in, "Do you think I'm joking?"

Todays fifth, and final, word is, "NOPE'.

As in, "Nope, I'm not fucking joking."

I shall now vent by breaking/destroying/eliminating a random object -- although posting did make me feel a bit better.

PS All is now good with the world, I have found coffee. And for some reason I have visions of school teachers dancing in my head ...
