Right.... so I took a little break.
I'm still working at the store.
People still getting on my nerves.
What else is new.... ??
I actually meant to update at least once in April but eeeh....
Anyway --- I just got my wisdom teeth taken out and they hurt like a MF'er. So why is it that AFTER I tell people this, they still insist on chatting me up?
Sir, I just had my wisdom tooth broken into pieces and then yanked out my face with a pair of pliers. I'm slowly bleeding and can only open my mouth 1/4 of the way. Why would I want to carry a conversation with you right now about your petunias?

GET OFF THE PHONE!
A simple rule of etiquette:
When entering a place of business and you need to place a type of order or request,
GET OFF THE PHONE.
A guy was just in here blabbing away on the phone with a big ass hole in the crotch of his jeans. I started daydreaming from the boredom and he tapped on the counter to get my attention instead of saying, "Excuse me" like a polite person who actually has manners. I ignore him, and he starts waving his hand and I finally decide to acknowledge him.
So basically, end your phone call before getting something, Otherwise, sit your ass outside until you finish.

Jagermeister
What is up with white people and Jagermeister?
I've only had it once, and it is NASTY. It tastes exactly like black licorice, and it's thick, all the way down.
My store doesn't get a lot of white customers, but I can say this for a fact, about 80% of them who are not regulars, buy Jagermeister.
If you need more proof, just watch the movie, "The Hangover".
:P

Chasing off the Tutes
Damn prostitutes!!
Two of them were right in front of the store, standing there. I called out to the other cashier to "chase off the prostitutes". One of our male customers left after I said it, and one of the prostitutes went to his car and was talking to him. I walked to the door and stared him down, and after several minutes, he drove off without her.
Eeew.
It's the absolute worse when a known prostitute comes in and buys a single condom.
But hey...
at least they're being safe!!

Stripper Heels

Say - what??

Definition Lesson
"Where are you from?"
Now, I'm biracial, so when people ask me this question, they actually mean what race am I. I don't find it offensive, or even annoying. but I still have fun and always answer, "From here." Even though I know what they mean.
So, just a quick lesson in words so that my readers can be a little more educated, in case they are not:
Race: A person's biological descent & who their descendents were.

Race: A person's biological descent & who their descendents were.
Ex: Halle Berry's race is black and white.
Ethnicity: A person's background & culture.Ex: Wyclef Jean's ethnicity is Haitian.
Nationality: What country a person hails from.Ex: Naomi Campbell is British.
So... if Jane is Japanese (both parents are Japanese) and she lives in the United Kingdom, her race would be Asian, ethnicity would be Japanese, and Nationality would be British.
See? Learning can be fun!
This makes the correct answer to ask me, "What is your race?"

To Be Continued
Really, he was lucky I didn't snap on his ass, but I was already in a foul mood so I was already in "I don't give a fuck" mode. You see, earlier, I broke down crying at work and...
TO BE CONTINUED...
I hate men!! I basically broke down at work because of some out of work issues. Really, I need to learn how to keep my personal life and work separate, but sometimes it's an issue that cannot be helped!! And if people keep picking, picking, picking, eventually it's going to cause a thread to break.
Basically, another cashier got into a pair of customers about running their card twice. Our receipts didn't print because the machine thought the order was a duplicate. But the customer said that his bank took out both amounts. I tried to explain to the men that we can't tell if we recieved the money until the next day, but one just HAD to get his money that day. The total for both run-throughs was about $25. And he was just being rude and I put up with it for awhile before I snapped at him and then started crying from my o.o.w. stress. His friend apologized to me, but gah, EMBARRASSING!! It was cleared up the next day, but fuck, it wasn't a big deal to begin with. I've gone to Nordstrom and had them run a purse I bought twice, and that shit cost $100 and I didnt' bitch. I just waited until the next day. But this guy was just rude off the bat despite me telling him it would be cleared by tomorrow. Geez.. are you that broke you don't have over $25 in the bank?? If so, then you don't need to come to the liquor store.
I just hope it doesn't happen again. The breakdown I mean... but the whole card situation was ridiculously annoying.
I'm currently at work now on my laptop attempting to aoid all eye contact with people trying to talk to me. Everytime I am on my laptop, without fail, someone asks if I'm doing homework/studying.
Well... if I am, why are you interrupting me? if I knew smeone was doing work, the last tihng I would do is interrupt them to ask if they're doing work! And, most of the time, I'm not doing work anyway so it's just annoying to constantly have people ask. If I'm on thec computer, i could be doing a variety of things: playing a game, actually doing work, reading gossip blogs, writing on my blog... the possibilities are endless, so really, regardless of what I'm doing online, it's none of your business.
And I say that in the most polite way possible.
