Another day another dollar, hope whoever reads this doesn't mind that I do a little mindless ranting. I am a returning college student. Right out of high school I joined the army did four years and then found a job working in a factory. After three years of feeling my mind slowly die I decided it was all I could take and went back to school. However in order to pay bills while I was in school I had to take a job in retail. I would like to piss and moan about some of the things I have seen in the past 4 years of retail. So if you will indulge me. (One) Just because you are in front of the counter and I am behind it doesn't make you smarter then me, 90% of the people who work with me are actively pursueing their degrees. Only the store manager has accepted that she is making a career with a certain Pacific Northwest based coffee company that I work for. (Two) Hang up your damn phone while talking to me. And also if you don't want other people to hear what you are talking about then don't talkon your phone in public. (Three) Figure out what you want before you step up to the counter. Where I work we sell coffee. If you can't figure out what kind of coffee you want then step to the back of the line. (Four) Please don't ask me if an item is good. I have no idea if the $700 espresso machine is good, I am to poor to have one at home. And don't ask me if a food or drink tastes good. A. I will tell you it does even if it doesn't just to make the sale and make my boss happy. B I have not tried every item in the store to see how it tastes. C It all tastes the same to me anyway. I smoke, I have killed my tatse buds, to me it all tastes the same. (Five) If you see me in the parking lot with my apron off and my keys in my hand, I am OFF let me go home! I am in the building doing my job for 8 hours a day if you can't talk to me during those hours then find someone else. (Six) NO if I cannot find the price or if it does not scan that does not mean that it is free. (Seven) Our tip jar is our tip jar, it is not a take a penny leave a penny jar. I will cover you for a penny if you ask me but anything that goes into my tip jar is mine. And that includes fingers.
Well I guess that is enough ranting for one day. Have a good one all.
and on a side note I think I have converted a friend to suicidegirls I let him peruse the site while he was at the house the other night and now he keeps asking if he can caom over and check out suicidegirls.
