Long time since last post. Think I have one from March I didn't post, about the company I worked for for 25+ years shutting down, but that's whatever.
First thought....when the hell did everyone get so rude and entitled? Like you can't wait in line for 2 seconds, when every register is open and cashiers are working as fast as possible, around those of you with card issues or those who have to have each price notarized as it's rung up or those digging for exact change? Pet peeve, those who take up space unlocking their cards or transferring money between accounts. Do that shit before you get to the checkout. Seriously. We are not paid enough to wait for you to fix your finances at the register with 40 people behind you.
2nd thought....returning items, bring your damn receipt. Period. Do not expect to be accommodated if you have no proof of purchase, and especially do not expect me to buy your fish story of "my wife bought it for 100 bucks here" when we never ever sold it for that much and haven't carried them in over a year. I dont care that you're x years old and " know how stores work ". Sir, I have 36 plus years in this field, mostly in management, and I know way more than you. Yes he got told that.
3rd thought...different topic. I'm done making and wrapping all gifts for Christmas so my day off has been necessary stuff and doomscrolling as I relax. So many things I could find to discuss, but some of my current favorites are those calling out poor behavior of others. Especially predatory behavior. No, sir, you do not have the right to someone's body because you paid for dinner or she dressed cute or whatever. Stop it. Grow up. No means no. Probably more on this topic at a later date.
4th....if you drive, use your common sense. Use your headlights, it helps others see you even if it doesn't help you see. Stop using those idiotic blinding blue LED lights. Use your turn signals when changing lanes, exiting a freeway, turning. Don't tailgate. I will lessen my speed to below the speed limit (not on the freeway. I'm not stupid), especially if we're on the 2 lane state highway and you're acting the fool because I'm going 5 over and it's not fast enough for your RedBull soaked brain.
Ok done for now. Peace out, merry Christmas
