Oh man, just getting home..... Stopped by the convenience store and picked up a lotto ticket...haha I still got carded.....come on...lady luck be kind to me.....unlike every other lady....., so I don't have to go to work tomorrow... I'll take a brownie please
Good luck with the lotto ticket. The first thing I heard when I got to work this morning was that our lazy-ass assistant store manager had come in and immediately started talking crap about me and saying that I hadn't done any work over the weekend. Kind of pissed me off, since I busted my butt all weekend getting stuff done. I very nearly left my keys on the desk in the manager's office and just bounced. If only Joel hadn't talked me out of it...
Joel ever the rock in the emotional ocean... But I would have just let the prick have it.... Taken so much crap all my life, not anymore though.
Good luck with the lotto ticket, Pallas You got carded? That should be headed in the right direction already! I haven't been carded since I was 24
Thanks. I needs the lucks. I was like "Why? I'm very old." The clerk is like, "No, you're younger than me. So if you're very old, what am I? I'm in the thirties." I look at her, thinking that I just stuck my foot in mouth, "uhhh...well...you're good, I couldn't tell either. I'd card you too."
I just took some choco chip coooookkiiees out of the oven. Anybody care to join me and melt the misery away with a bite?
Yeah, I went off to the store manager about it, and I don't know if he said anything to the ASM or if my being a total d*ck to him when he tried to talk to me scared him, but he hid from me for the rest of the day. Haha I call myself old all the time to people who are older than me. I like to make them feel bad...but it's people I know, so I guess the situations are a bit different. I care to join you! Yay, cookies!
Tea, madam? Sorry to hear about your work. It reminds just like how Taylor's manager treated her. Every night when Taylor closed, she would be hurrying around, cleaning, and recovering. And nine out of ten times, the manager would find something to complain about, be it imaginary or just plain petty. It's like you can never make someone in management happy.
Man, I cringe to think what you would do if you weren't such a lady, H 5'5" of untamed fury....wait, I guess Joel did tame it...haha
Yes, please! Thank you! Hahaha, I don't know if Joel would agree that he's tamed my fury...he puts up with a lot when I'm in a bad mood.
I don't know, H, guys can only take so much, plus he has access to a helicopter for an even faster escape....
No lotto hit, I actually have to get up tomorrow... What I would done with all that money, I've been dreaming about starting my own foundation/non profit....sigh....
I have been doing sort of well at freelance writing as of late. I 'aggressively tutored' a business major through 2 papers at $50/page and just got approached by another guy to edit his novel. Not a huge amount of pay on this latest one, but he is a friend and it's another feather in my cap. The crazy thing is that I'm not even fishing for work right now. It just keeps finding me.
A casino that donates all profits to a series of charities. He will take a queue from Vegas and name his casino the "Imperial Pallas"
That is very clever, I like it, but that seems like so much overhead and logistics, better meet me in the metro for some 3 card monty. As for a foundation, I come from the andes, a most under-served region, and I would quite like to set up trade schools, clinics, youth programs and that sort of thing.
You don't have to run the Casino, that is why God created mafiosos. But as a do-gooder your thugs run a tight ship and badger (sometimes beat) kids to stay in class, adults to be responsible, and all the funds they extort go to the charity funds. You just pick the places that get money and let the 'street team' get their Robin-hood on.
I actually love that idea: Start a gang/mafia family that Robbin-Hoods their profits. Instead of making a small group wealthy they seek to make a large region better. They run shelters for the homeless, sponsor infrastructure projects (bridges, roads, et al), and fund scholarship programs. When 'the man' finally cracks down, there won't be a single 'average Joe' who hasn't benefited from the program. I doubt anyone would ever get convicted.
