Work and such...

Okay, bad me...It's been almost a month since my last post. And that last one was pretty small. Things are less stressful when I am at home and I don't find as much to write about. I work at Juice It Up now. Now that summer has started it seems as though everyone is always coming into the store. That can be a little stressful. A few days ago something happened that made me so mad that I feel like I should share it on my blog. It was about two and half hours into my shift when these three teenagers came in. They were driving so either they were driving without licenses or they just barely got their licenses. They acted like freshmen. There were two boys and a girl. The girl went to Golden Spoon and the boys came into JIU. From the moment they walked in they were acting immature. They were using rude language and talking about dirty things. They changed the names of some of our drinks to make them sound dirty. Next they continued to say rude things while we were making the smoothies.

Next, one of the boys went up to me and said that he had a two for one coupon in the car and that I had to honor it even if he didn't have it with him because the customer is always right. Well, that's not the way things work at JIU and I told him that I would need the coupon if he wanted a discount. It just so happens that my sister was working with me and she is a shift leader there. The kid who did the whole coupon thing went to her next and said, "Are you the manager? Tell that b***h to give me a discount!" She replied, "Actually she's my sister and she's right, you don't get the discount without the coupon." We hurried and finished their drinks and then, as they were leaving, the kid with the coupon tried to steal money out of our tips jar. I looked right at him and said, "Not funny, put it back now." I was so pissed! The girl had come back in by this time, and as they were leaving she said, "I apologize for whatever they said." Then they left. So there's my exciting work story for the week.

In other news, I saw X3 the other day, generally I liked it. Although there were a few issues I had. Such as having too much Storm and not enough Rogue. There were also a few deaths that made me mad. That's it for now, I got to get ready for another day of work.
