I know some of you might not have one since you still might be in school or you just don't want to work lol. But if you have one this is the place where you can tell us the most oddest thing you have seen, heard,or did.
Well I work at Wal-Mart...Yeah laugh i know xD But some pretty interesting things happen at Wal-mart...Over a week ago we had a group of people come into the electronics (where i work) and steal over 60 copies of Flags of Our Father's Even before they where due out. We keep the movies that come out tuesday in the middle of a cube thing and someone reached into it (after breaking the sign that was blocking it) and grabbed the boxes that the movies where in and put them in a garbage tub thing. They almost got away with if we (Me and the person i was working with) didn't notice that the sign was gone and that there was a box missing. We called the Manager and they caught them.
And this story happened on last Monday...The main camera lady came in to work in the morning and was looking at the returns of cameras and placing them where they belong. Well one box that was sealed air tight like it was suppose to didn't feel heavy enough. So she took off the wrapping and opened and she found.....A can of Tomato Paste where the camera was suppose to be...Someone bought it opened it took out the camera, placed the can of tomato paste in there and some how sealed it back to how it was before it was opened....And since it was returned on the weekend and almost no one pays attention we don't know who did it.
What are your odd stories!?

That's really odd... eek
Since I babysit, I don't have many odd stories. I realize babysitting isn't technically considered work, but I do it three times a week (the same family), so I consider it work (I started my own jewelry business, but people rarely buy anything). I do have two interesting things, though.
The family has two cats and one dog. One cat is extremely old and whines whenever you come near and he bites; the other is very young and loves to pester the older cat; their dog had kidney failure and almost had to be put down, but is better (however, she eats EVERYTHING and tries to eat everything). So one day, I'm sort of wandering about the kitchen looking for snacks, when the old cat decides that he's going to throw up all over their stove. It wasn't the cat vomit I'm used to with my cat... It was absolutely disgusting and I had to clean it up. The young cat, Jack, decides that the paper towels with cat vomit smell interesting, so I had to keep him out of the trash can. Then the old cat finishes puking and Jack decides to play with him; what does he do? He runs under the parents' bed so I can't reach him. Later, after screaming, I found the cat sitting on top of an air conditioner and I shoved him out of the house.
Second story: I had a bowl of cereal as an after school snack and I had to help the girls bring stuff in when they got home. I come back and the dog has knocked over the bowl (which apparently exploded, because there was milk all over the walls, couch, table, and floor). Then the girls say, "Oh... Chewy gets sick if she eats that." so I had to shoo the dog out of the house and clean that mess up.
I house-sit more than I baby-sit. XD

I just got a job at a Chinese Restaurant as a waitress, although Im a table girl right now. I'm really excited to start the job but I'm a little nervous too. And also being in high school, it's going to take up some time. But oh well some cash coming in ^^

I have another one!!!
Ok this one happened at my old job. I use to work as the night time cashier at a airport parking lot, and at this job you met many interesting people. But ever second thursday the rig boys would come home on the bus and get dropped off at where i worked since their cars where there. Well one thursday one of the rig boys (the cute one xD) came into the office and stayed there for awhile since he didn't have a car and he had to catch a ride to the airport (And both the buses left 5 secs before he came into the office). Well there i am checking the last car out of the computer system when the guy started to talk to me. I think he must have drank some booze on the bus cause he was acting pretty drunk. Well after the last person left he went "Hey I have half a bottle of vodka in my bag you and i should go to the back and finish it off" Well there i was standing there not really knowing what to say since most guys don't talk to me much. "I would love to but i don't think my boss would like me working drunk" What i finally told him, and he continued to talk to me until one of the buses came back and he got on...and he started to sing to me over the radio system (My sister was the driver of the bus he was on so she let him). Well my face was beet red for the rest of the night . XD

Here's a short little story.
I thought I was supposed to work the other day, so after school I headed over to their house. I let the cats and dog inside and when I turned around to check for any note, I saw a cat that I had never seen before. It was all black and had an extremely poofy, fluffy tail; so I picked it up (it was realllly tame) and called my employer. She said, "Oh; that's just a stray that my daughter let in. We think it's an indoor cat that got out, and if nobody else claims it in the next week it'll be ours. By the way, I don't need you to work today." >< Rather interesting experience. It's such a cute little kitty, though!
I also had a mail-lady think I was the girls' sister. XD I look NOTHING like them, but ah well. (I hide from the Fed-Ex and UPS trucks. >_>)
