Good times.
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
I love when you clock out and put on your jacket and people still expect you to serve them. I didn't put this jacket on because I was cold, and I'm not going to serve you on my own time. G'bye!
I used to work at a small handbag and jewellery chain in central London. Those 6 months working there were undoubtedly my dullest to date.
We would close the door at 7pm but those remaining in store could continue to walk around and try things on for as long as they liked. It was an incredibly irritating policy and not exactly the fault of the customers but they certainly milked it.
They also had this other policy where we had to go over and ask the customer if they needed assistance within the first 30 seconds of them entering the shop. You could tell how irritating it was for the customer (who usually just want to browse, unharassed anyway).
This would happen where I worked as well. I'd worked a whole day, was cranky and tired, but still had to wait for that last person, who was acting like he had no clue the store was closing.
Certain awesomeness to owning your own business: "You know what? I don't want your money or business; please leave. Now."

Would really appreciate it if customers would stop coming up to me and telling me "I just came in here for ONE thing and ended up getting a WHOLE BASKET full of stuff! Isn't that CRAZY!"
Also this little Asian woman came up to me today with two different packs of blank discs and kept asking me which was better for saving pictures and video clips and I honestly have no idea what the difference is between the two so I said I didn't think it mattered and told her if it didn't work she could just return them and this confused her even more and for a few moments I thought she was about to cry and I felt really bad for her and wanted to hug her.
We're not Wal-Mart. You can come up and swipe your card as many times as you want but it's not going to go through until after I ring up your items, tell you your total, and hit the CREDIT/DEBIT button. Only then can you swipe your card.
And to all the people who write checks for purchases under $10, go kill yourselves.
Man, today I had a woman INSERT the strip of her debit card into the swipe part section of the machine.
wth?
We had some lady come in and return some food because it was "close-dated."
Who the hell returns food?
I returned a can of baby formula to Target once when I got home and realized that it had passed the expiration date. The customer service person circled the date in red and tossed it into a basket and gave me my money back. The next time I went to Target, some moron had put the same fucking can back on the shelf.
Ordering an Extra Large tub of popcorn and asking for an Extra Large diet soda to go with it is pointless.

Yesterday I had a customer with an SS tattoo on his arm.
Today I had a customer with the word "HATE" tattooed on his leg.
Tomorrow I'll probably have a customer with "RaHoWa" tattooed across his forehead.
You can look for the dark side every day and you will find it. When you do, however, you look right past the light side that illuminates the world around you. It's only by the contrast that you see the dark at all. Funny how that works.

I don't live in SF, but I think we should all able to bitch about fat retarded cripples THAT ORDER DIET COKES without bring race into it!!
I used to work in my only local sex shop. Sometimes I'd be sitting there behind the register, doin' my minimum wage cashier thing, and some asshole tries to return his dildo. Because we have health codes just for the fuck of it right? Drunken dumbasses and random cum-dumpster chicks want to come in a minute and a half before you close. Some people try name dropping my bosses and I eventually started just throwing them out immediately.
Sorry dude, I've been to Portland and you'd have to head a bit farther south to be in the "hood". You might be in a meth riddled trailer park somewhere but that is the "trash-bin"

That is a pretty righteous feeling. I had one guy threaten to beat my ass then get me fired. He didn't realize I had a .45 pointed at his nut sack the whole time

Did you feel like a man?

The only concentrated African-american population in Oregon in the 1980's and early 1990s was in North Portland where most relocated after the Vanport floods in 1948. By most real estate contracts, North Portland was the only place that persons of a non-European decent could own/and/or live by what was taken to be law. We didn't really start seeing 'hood type situations here until the late 1970's when parents started relocating their children from gang ridden cities like LA to relatives that lived in more stable communities like Portland. These kids brought their culture and lifestyles with them.
If you have been to Portland in the last ten to fifteen years, then you have seen what an amazing job a non-profit called the Portland Development Commission has done. Unfortunately for you, the crime and gang related activity has moved east, not south. I wish you actually knew something, but unfortunately you seem to be a unfortunate blow-hard that knows nothing about my city and joined exclusively to try to fuck up my joke. As though I didn't already know it wasn't that funny.

Yeah but then you'll have some cocky and curmudgeon old lady (who must have the final say) writing you love letters at complaintsboard.com and/or the FTC in lulz worthy attempts to ruin you.
I get sued yearly.
I've only lost once. I former assistant teacher sued me for the hundred bucks I owed her. I never denied owing it to her, but maintained that I needed her key back before I would pay her. Judge ruled in "her favor", saying, "You give him his key. You give her her check." I had the check already written out two-months prior and handed it to her. She gave me my key. That hundred bucks cost her $125 in filing fees.
Winnar.

It disturbs me that people like the taste of diet coke. I had an overweight friend who loved drinking diet coke merely for the taste, not cuz she was trying to lose weight.
It really does have a funky taste.

I actually like the taste--I even liked it back when I was fat. When people asked, I said, "it can't hurt," because I thought it was better for me than drinking regular soda. But now I hear it causes strokes or someting.
Breathing causes strokes.
Anyway, thing about diet soda, once you get habituated to it, it tastes fine. Different than regular, but fine.

The diet coke here does not taste funky at all, and I could drink it for the taste alone.
I don't mind the taste of it, but I'm not going to drink something that has carcinogens in it.
Car-cin-o-gens? I had to google that.
I just drank a can... I don't want to die 
Yours is made with real sugar. Ours has the high fructose corn syrup shit.
I don't like Coke. Diet nor classic.
Coke Zero is pretty good. It's the compromise of diet and regular Coke 
We have that too, I don't like that either.
Give me fruit juice anytime. Only soda I like is Dr Pepper.
The only soda I don't like is Dr Pepper.
But anyway, I applied for a retail job today. I've never had one before. Should I say goodbye to my soul right now and get it over with?
Yours is made with real sugar. Ours has the high fructose corn syrup shit.
That's the reason I don't eat a lot of food. That shit is even in bread. It's unbelievable.

One of the things that really disturbed me when I moved here is how hard it is to find a loaf of bread with no added sugar.. WTF America!?

Yes.

Haha, oh dear.
If you like people Jessica you'll be fine. There will be days you think all humans are idiots and/or arseholes, and days where you think people are great and working with people is great(ok, honestly this might be rare).
Good luck!
I worked as a checkout chick at a supermarket for about 4 years. I liked it. If I lost my job and couldn't work as an ECE teacher I'd do it again.
I buy my bread at... A bakery!
It's fresher, healthier, and cheaper. Also, my bread tastes like bread rather than spongecake. No preservatives means you have to plan and buy only what you can use in the next two days though.

I like people. I'd even say I was a people person, if that meant anything at all. I've only worked in restaurants before and I enjoyed it, it was just sooooo tiring. This seems easier. But I dunno. People complain so much about it. If my soul is ever in jeopardy, I'll just beg to be allowed to carry food and beer back and forth again.
I despise people yet I was a customer service god. What the hell do you suppose that means? That I can fake sincerity with the best of them?

Kit - as a wannabe chef you should get a breadmaker. It takes about five minutes preparation time and only two-three hours to bake. It also is cost effective if you use it regularly. You can use it for Rye and Gluten Free recipes too.... I've made some really great bread with the Panasonic SD254 one.
ANYWAY...time for me to stop sounding like an advert.
I really want one, I'm just worried about getting another kitchen appliance that will go unused. I'd like an ice-cream maker, too! damnit
Heh.
