No excuses

There is no reason why I haven't posted a blog. I have 2 drafts of blog posts that I started but never finished. I act like I don't have free time to write a blog post. That's not the case. I don't have classes on Tuesdays, Thursdays, or weekends.Also, it seems like my only "free time" is during my Criminal Justice class. It's this class and my Sociology class where I'm able to sit all class with my computer open. I should be getting these blog posts out more. It's gonna happen. I'm going to try and get at least 2 out a week. That's my guarantee. 

Now that that's out of the way, what's up Internet? Missed you guys. 

I keep forgetting that I need to be funny in this blog because of the title. Might need to change it. Or just tell bad jokes when I'm not feeling funny.

A seal walks into a club.
*ba dum tssshh*
"Aww Nick that's not funny that's terrible!"
It's a joke.

So I got a job at a grocery store. This is my second job at a grocery store job. My other job? Walmart. I work the worst jobs in the world - retail. Can't I just get a paycheck every week? Just for sitting around. I'd like that. No work involved. My ideal job at the moment would be becoming an RA. Free housing, guaranteed housing, and you get paid to be an RA and to desk attend. Not saying I'd be sitting around as an RA, I know there is a lot of responsibility that comes with the RA job, but it would be completely worth it. I am definitely going to apply for an RA position for next year. Not sure if it is possible to get a mid-year RA job as a freshman. I'm going to try to become an RA though. 

Retail sucks. Customers can suck it. Of course there are some customers that are really nice, but 70% of customers are dickheads. I say that in the most polite way possible. I've had so many rude customers I've had the urge to quit both previous jobs I've had because they get bitchy because I can't find the teriyaki sauce they so desperately want or I asked them a simple question.

Real life example.
A woman comes through my line as I'm bagging. She has three items, 2 small items and a half gallon of milk.
Woman: "You don't need to bag the milk."
Me: "What about the other two small items?" Thinking she might want to hold on to those in her huge Coach knock-off purse she could fit a computer in.
Bitch: *glares at me* "Don't. Bag. The milk."

What a bitch. I bag your groceries and you treat me like shit? I know its a stupid job but I'm doing you a favor. Appreciate it or don't say shit. I can handle it if no one thanks me, but if you treat me like I'm the stupidest person in the world, I have a problem with you. Ok, ma'am. Do you want me to take this plastic bag I didn't use and shove it up your ass?

Didn't think so. Move along.
