Check Yo'self!

You know what I find absolutely hilarious every day at Costco? The little kids that come with their parents! Yesterday, this black lady with her two kids, and boy and a girl, came up to me while I'm boxing some groceries and ask me where the bathrooms were. I told her where they were, and they went on their merry way. I then went to go get more boxes, and as I did so, the little black boy came running and slid right in front of me, as he was wearing flip-flops. I stopped so abruptly, that I almost went butt over tea kettle if you know what I mean! All he did was laugh and laugh, and I began to laugh too. Stinkin' little kids, they are so goofy! That was pretty much the only good part of my day...one of the cashiers that I got put with was kind of stuck up, but she told me she liked me and said I'm a good worker, so I guess I can't hate her ;) She's just a cranky mother of three haha! Can't wait for more adventures!

Um, I'm sorry, I don't understand you, you nut!

Well helloooo out there! Want to know my definition of a blog? Rhetorical question people! I think a blog is a place where people write to feel like their opinion actually matters...but hey, I'm sure none of you think of it in that way...Anyways, as some of you well know, I work at Costco. For my first blog entry, I would like to share a funny story that happened at work, and I hope you can get a laugh...if you don't laugh, go read someone else's stupid blog ;) ....SO I'm helping box groceries at a checkout stand when all of a sudden, some old lady comes up to me out of nowhere, and I mean NOWHERE, and tells me that she is there to pick up her friends dog food that she absolutely needs. Now, in the back of my head I'm thinking, "well why the heck isn't her friend here, and isn't it the DOG that actually needs it"? But of course, I didn't say this to the 'cuckoo-for-cocoa-puffs' lady, I said, "I'm sorry, she didn't come through this checkout line." The nutso lady then says, "But she needs the dog food!" Then I was like, WHOA! (Not saying this out loud of course) Someone forgot to take their meds! Then the old hag just walked away, mumbling something to herself. I was extremely busy boxing a large order, so I just let it go. I don't really think this reflects my good work ethic, but she just walked away to talk to some other person about this "friend" who needs her dog food. Here's the thing, people usually get their items after checkout, it's just how it goes. Not my fault if some lady escapes from the funny farm and asks about dog food. OK, so first lesson people, you can't take anything I say seriously, I would never disrespect the elderly this way, by calling them "hags" and "nutso's" alright? ;) I just thought this was kinda funny. People are weird. ha...ha...ha...BUT I'm still gonna make fun of them :)
