Hangovers. Not being able to sleep when drinking. Being reminded of stuff I Do when I'm drunk like its SO bad (when it's really not)
My mom just told me this story and I can't believe she was so nice to this lady.
Mom and dad were PMing and it was one of those cashiers that reads everything. A lady came up behind them and told my parents "I like what you are doing, but don't PM on Saturdays when WORKING PEOPLE are just trying to grocery shop."
My parents are retired so can go shopping whenever, and avoid Saturdays like the plague. But they were buying food because they had lost some after the ice storm and didn't stock their fridge in case the power went out again (their area was one of the worst hit in the city). Were they supposed to starve for days to wait for Saturday so this woman could save 5 minutes?
People are incredibly RUDE. Those "working people" can go shopping on Wednesday nights if they want. I work and I do. The fact that you work makes you better than people? You deserve priority because you say so? What a self-righteous …..
Id say retirement is WAY better than working. You earned that. Some people. Smh

Stores are open every night if you work go shopping on a weeknight it's twice as fast and rarely busy. I used to do that all the time.Quote:

I work and I usually shop Sunday morning when no one is in the stores or I'll go out after dinner or pick up a few things at lunch (as a side note, I just discovered a Freshco that I can get to in my hour lunch so I'm thrilled about that!). I would have probably made a snide remark but I'm also like that.Quote:

Pine trees that still drop off small limbs-realized that had happened while crossing the yard to the splashblocks to clear them of snow/ice. I really don't need to pile more branches, Mr. Huff and Puff Wind.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Calls at noon and says "it's my birthday, I want to go out tonight." Note, I saw him yesterday for new years and there was no mention of going out tonight.
Me: where are we going?
*Tells me place, but it's closed tonight. I call him and tell him to pick someplace else*
Him "I don't care I just wanna go out"
Me: Well you need to tell me where I'm going because it's going to be -30 tonight and I'm not waiting outside in the cold with no reservation. Why don't we go on the weekend and you can decide?
him: It will be cold all week. Sorry I'm such an inconvenience
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I give you time to decide and you try to put your disorganization on me?
Was your birthday a surprise this year?
took a 30 minute walk to a shoppers whose website said they'd be open late last night only to find all the store employees speeding out of the parking lot as i approached the store, 2 hours earlier than the website said they'd close.
oh yeah and the weather was "feels like -36"
WOW! I'd be calling the company (not the store) and making a complaint! Not fun to freeze your butt off even when there's a good purpose... extremely not fun to freeze your butt off for no reason!Quote:
