Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kilana, I understand the whole claims thing. We get thing sent back to the floor because the UPC isn't comming up in the computer when I scanned the damn thing with the telzon to get it's price. As for stories of Wal-Mart, I think I am going to start a thread in the chatterbox for people to b***h about it there seeing as I can come home with a new story everytime I work. Speaking of which, no I think I should put todays story there.

Stories!

Okay, I am a very tolarant person.
I realize that people believe different things spiritualy, and Im okay with that.

Conspiracy theorists shop at my work (grocery store)
So, they come through my till, with these wierd metal, triangle prism things on their heads like hats, and ask me if they can use my pen.
Of course.
They take my pen, and stroke lines through all of their barcodes.
So, I start to type in the numbers that correspond with the barcodes, because obviously now I cant scan it.
They freak out "what are you doing, what the hell? dont do that"

Well, I kind of have to.
They pay in cash.
But when they give you the cash, they rip it, about 1/4 of the way into the bill, not all the way through, but still.
Wtf?

Go away crazy people, if you think that the government, or aliens, are tracking you down, why do you shop at a large big name, store, versus, a small family owned business?

The defecation stories reminded me of a call I handled today at work. The company I work for owns apartment communities throughout the US. If the local office is closed or just doesn't pick up the call transfers to the central office for the company(which is the office where I work). My job is to take any overflow calls that comes through.

Today on the service line a woman calls in to report that someone took a dump in the hallway of the building near her apartment door. I just could not believe it. Why the hell would someone take a dump in the building they live in? The doors are secured so only a resident or a vistor they let in could have done it. Normally since it is Sunday I only page a service tech for emergencies. This is not exactly within the normal emergency list, but it is one of those things that I felt I had to call. So when I'm on the phone with the tech he said he gets about 5 of these calls a week! A few days ago he received a call because someone defecated into one of the frickin' washing machines! I was laughing hysterically on the phone because I couldn't believe it. What the hell are these people thinking?!!???!

That's the problem, they aren't thinking. But heck, that's better than all those stories of people pissing in the coffee machine at work, which has been documented in several independant incidents. gonk

I can't imagine why people do that stuff with their waste. That's just foul and disgusting. o_O why would you do it in public, or whatever ..

I guess I'm lucky because I haven't seen feces at work yet (urine on the floor, yes, but not yet feces), aside from messes left in the toilets. Ugh. That's so disgusting, usually I have a pretty solid stomach but that'd be what'd make me queasy. gonk I mean, I can clean up rancid catfood that's crawling with maggots, but fecal material .. gkhbkshfx. :[

This woman's obviously pover-t.

Once again, my idea of sending all the homeless and beggar sorts to war for us has come up. I mean think about it.

-We're cleaning up our cities
-We're giving something for random_enemy_x to fight
-Who cares if hobos die? lol

Oh, but not our streets. >:] In my head, they get left wherever.
