Tonight I did something new to me...

Aside from having a bad day in general at work, didn't do too well in tips, had Xan do dishes so I could cook for everyone. We're getting near the end of dinner and I decided that since Nojuan kept getting bites of spaghetti with his mouth instead of his fork... I was going to do it... I waited for the right moment before I pushed his face into his plate. Luckily he found it as funny as Xan and I did. I managed to get him a second time, which for some reason was even funnier than the first.

You see, I've never put someone's face in food no matter how much I've thought of it, so I didn't know what the appeal was, so I did it. And then when I said I needed a pie, no one could stop laughing for a minute. Possibly because of Nojuan and I both, more than likely, were thinking of this:

But anyway, so I definitely had a blast with that.

Nah, today was just one hell of a day though, especially with me closing at work with someone who's never closed before, and two people who had only done it maybe once or twice.

We didn't get out until almost 2 tonight because the one girl, Ally, a skittish little Papillon lied to Catherine when she told her she and I were almost done cleaning up front. The only thing she did was sweep even though I told her we needed to save the sweeping until after we had done the make line and the dough table since those being done would cause more dirt on the floor. When I finally got done with the make line I just happened to glance over at the oven, I saw she didn't even de-crumb them like I had told her too.

So I had to do that, re-sweep the floor, and mop it before I could finally leave. Even Catherine was upset by Ally lying, and not doing a damn thing when she was there to help close up. It was just hell, simply put.

So, internet went down again, as frustrating as it was. Luckily though now that it's back up I can get back to doing what I do. Including setting up another secret shop for this week. Just gotta have it done by 5-3 so it can go towards my next check from them. Would help if I could get more shops so that it's not just a 60 check.

Oh! In other news, I have to pause this for a moment while I go post a new chapter that I wrote yesterday! Excuse me a sec. Okay, so you don't have any way of knowing, but I was gone for 20 minutes because when I went to post this chap on both sites, apparently on the other I didn't even put the chapter that came before this one so I had to do a double-update there.

But in the actual other news I was going to say before I realized I had to pause, I've actually been inspired a little more lately. I think it's because I've lost a lot of stress off of my shoulders. Usually stress is a trigger to my inspiration, but too much can actually clog up my poor skull. I keep getting chapter ideas to help me move along in this one story I've been toying with the idea of. Hint = it involves the worlds of vampires and succubi coming face-to-face instead of a vampire vs. werewolf type thing that everyone has run into the ground.

I actually need to hop off here so I can write up the info for the secret shop I have this week. Thank you very much for stopping in for my updates!

So last night an accident happened and I feel horrible for it...


I accidentally knocked Nojuan's glass bowl off the table and it shattered =(. He said it's no big deal, but he's so damn picky about his pieces that, no joke, he took 2 hours to pick it out. When I get my check on Wednesday I'm going to take him to get a new one. I feel absolutely shitty for it breaking, but luckily enough, his half-sister Mexi left hers when she went back to FL almost a year ago. We held onto it in case she ever asked for it back, but she has yet to.

Anyway, so can anyone figure out why the government can't back off our shit? Wondering what I'm talking about? Click the link to my right and read up on C.I.S.P.A. for a moment. Yep, this link.

Okay, now that you're done with that, I just want to point out a couple of things real quick, in relation to this line in that article... "The bill sponsors claim that with the increased number of attacks from countries like China, the ability to stop them before they happen is imperative." 

(September 11, 2001 - World Trade Center, Twin Towers Attack)

Funny... That wasn't through the internet... 


(April 19, 1995 - Murrah Federal Building, Oklahoma City Bombing)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that wasn't either...

Do I even need to find more pics of evidence that other countries, and even people within our own country, don't need the fucking internet to damage us in some way? Neither of those were via internet. From 1995 to 2001 our biggest threats of attacks have been either homeland attacks or other countries terrorizing us somehow. 

We're always worried about some kind of computer hack or computer meltdown without the threat of terrorists. Want proof?


 
(Sadly this goes with the above picture)

The best line in there, that sums up Y2K so you don't have to look into it yourself, was "Most computer codes were not written to go past 1999. Without updating to make them Y2K compliant, they will shut down at the stroke of midnight, Jan. 1, 2000." People seriously thought this was going to happen. We created computers and gave them everything in their programming they would need, and people seriously thought computers wouldn't have been programmed for the '99 - '00 crossover?



Then again, people thought that was going to happen too...

I guess my whole point is, fuck C.I.S.P.A. and S.O.P.A. and P.I.P.A. too. Let ME worry about who may or may not be getting into MY computer. Don't block the web-sites I view just because you want more control over the U.S. People. Don't say it's for our protection otherwise you wouldn't be monitoring food stamps purchases to make sure people aren't "over-buying". Don't believe me? Click me and find out.

Scroll down to where the paragraph starts with "But food stockpiles?"and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I think I've made my point, hopefully after seeing all this you'll agree if you didn't already. I'm going to go find something else to do besides rant at the government.

Happy 4-20 to all my readers who celebrate this day! ^_^ I've got plans of my own of course, but right now I'm wrapping up the form for EPMS for my apartment secret shop.

The guy totally sucked so the process is actually going pretty quick. The only slow part is one of the things I have to fill out says to list 3 things I liked about him. I am struggling to find even one to be honest with you. He did such a terrible job of a presentation that it's making it hard for me to say anything good about him.

I still have quite a bit to fill out, but I just wanted to say this. I hate city festivals. Especially when they take up a whole block of streets and side streets that I use for the deliveries when there are perfectly good baseballs fields and extended church parking lots they could have used. And it's going to last the whole weekend. So until Monday most of my roads close to work, that I use all the time, are blocked off by giant blow up bouncy houses, food stands and other art stands for people to buy stuff at.

Okay, got that out of my system.

Hey readers! So Nojuan nagged me to set up a Twitter acct, so if you want to check that out in case I update there but not here, click the link... That one... Over there -----> Hi!

Anyway, so the tea cup bitch got sent home when she started her shit with me again. I didn't even say one word to her and she kept intentionally getting in my way. One time, the first time, could have been debatable since she said she didn't see me, but then again, I get the feeling she did. I still don't know why Steph's issue is with me, but she needs to cut it out. She's been put on final warning since she messed up and harassed me in front of a manager again.

On the bright side, almost all my runs tonight were credit card runs, which meant it was less money I had to hand over at the end of the night. Sad part? If I had only had one cash run instead of the second one sneaking in as my last run, then the store would have owed me money! I only had to hand over 11 bucks at the end of the night due to all the card tips I  made as well as only having 2 cash runs. Again, awesome!

I can't remember if I told you all about my fish or not... He's a male beta, obviously since I said he, but anyway, I named him Elfish Codstello. That's him below. Anyway, you can see the bee hive in the right corner, only now it's in the left corner.

Earlier I noticed, somehow his beehive had lifted up, and was staying up. I'm going, "How on Earth did my beta lift his beehive house!?" Simple really, and Nojuan figured it out in a snap. My silly fish has been building his bubble nest INSIDE his home instead of at the top of his tank like males are supposed to. We found out that Nojuan was right because when I reached in and barely tilted his beehive, these two giants bubbles came out, and when I put it in after the last cleaning I made sure to turn it totally upside down to make sure there were no bubbles.

Silly beta. Anywho, check out the Twitter, again, it's here, and you can e-mail me now also over here ---> click me!

Alright, I'm being pulled away by Senior Nojuan, so I'll post more later today, at some point... Maybe.

Does anyone think James Bond would have an issue if I borrowed his theme song? ^_^ I'm going undercover today on an apartment secret shop and at this point I just need to get my target on the phone so I can get this process started. First attempt got me someone else though. I already wrote up the stuff I need to remember so when I go I can just get there, do what I need to do, park somewhere and wrap it up. And wait for others to open in my area. There are plenty open in Atlanta but I don't like to even go into Atlanta, fuck that mess.

Xan's folfy butt is lucky I care about him or he would have had to sit in Atlanta for a 4-hr lay over before the bus would drive a half hour to Marietta. We got all kinds of turned around though when I stuck in the HOV lane and wound up on 85 instead of staying on 75. I glanced down at the GPS and was like wait...FUCK! Used it to get back home once we got off 85 though. *warning: Incoming sarcasm* That was just the funnest little drive through the back roads of wherever the fuck we were. <-_->

But anyway, when everyone's awake we're going to take him to the store and get him some food since Nojuan and I usually buy what we want and keep our stuff separate from each others. So pretty much, we only have furson specific foods right now so we need to get him some Folf feed ^_^. We'll prolly end up doing that when I get done with my shop if I could get my target on the phone. I've had trouble like this before, just takes some time. Like now, paused this to try again and got someone else this time, still not my target though. Grrr...

Anyway, got the new FOB CD Save Rock and Roll, and it was well worth the wait for them to come back to us with more music. This CD is absolutely fucking amazing! Hearing these guys back together is the best thing I've heard all year, way better than listening to some of the crap I hear on the radio anymore.

I'm going to go make more tries to reach my target.

Took long enough but Xan is finally here! He was due to get to Marietta at 8, but there was a 4 hour lay over in Atlanta so we decided to just go get him and be done and over with it. So yeah, he's here and we're working on getting him settled in.

While he's currently showing Nojuan what he brought here from FL, I"m on here to let you all know my Folf (Fox/Wolf mix) friend is here finally. Joining me and Nojuan. Hopefully things will work out good and he'll get a job soon. I told him already that he has a week of hanging out before he has to go out and find a job. Once he starts looking I'm not going to put a time crunch on him, cos that's just wrong.

Well, I'm going to eat some foods to get energy before I eat someone's face off.

Okay so I did my shop for BARE yesterday, and I'm currently typing up the report for the Best Buy shop, but I needed a moment to say this.

I'm excited that Xan is getting here tomorrow. He's an awesome guy despite the issues we used to have. More like the issues I used to have with him, which weren't his fault at all. To a degree...

Back in 07-09 Nojuan and I were an item and Xan had the hots for him which bristled my fur. That was the only thing of him he did wrong. The rest was all me and my association disorder. If something massively affects me, be it good or bad, if something comes along that reminds me of, depending on if it was good or bad, I'll react to it due to the reminder of it.

If you dye his head fur black and give him extra piercings, he would be a dead on copy of a large Rottweiler that I was with one time who broke my heart pretty badly. His name was Kevin and it's not Xan's fault but he looks even sounds just like him minus the black head fur and piercings, which caused me to hate him and want his blood painting my walls. Once I realized it though it severed that association for me and we've been friends ever since.

The sad thing is that during that entire time I was pushing him away all he did was hold on so we could be friends. I regret how I was to him and I'm happy for him to be coming here. Well I have to get out of here and get ready for work. I'll be back later, or sometime tomorrow after he's gotten here.

Before I get started on this blog I just wanted to say it's going to probably sound like a sales thing, but I don't care, I wanna talk about something I like to do ^-^.

Tomorrow is my day off and I'm going to use it for my secret shopping. It's what I do to make extra money, and it does work if you find the right companies. I do it for 2 of them. One's an apartment secret shopping thing where you pick a community listing from the site and go there as a potential renter, get shown around and then fill out a long ass form telling about your visit. Depending on your state and what's up for offer at the time, you can major money if there are plenty of places in your area. I made $220 for one month's worth of just going to communities at random points during the month. I only did 7 shops. If you could do more you could make more. (If you're interested in this one, go to EPMS Online and take a look at it. It's very easy, even if the finishing form is a bit lengthy sometimes, but it's fun getting to look at other apartments.)

The other company has different options. You can do phone audits, place visits, or actual shopping visits where you do gt reimbursed. I mainly do phone calls with them, which I do have one lined up, I just can't do it til Monday since it's got a specific time frame to it. For the one I'm going to be doing tomorrow, and the one on Monday, I'll be getting $20, but I won't get it til next month. (If you're interested in this one go to BARE International and check it out. You'll be wanting to go for the Evaluator information. Client is for the people who are asking BARE to shop their company/location.)

From what I'm understanding about secret shopping places is that they have this time frame for you to do as many shops for them as you can, which is usually a span of a month, this way they can organize everything for your pay so nothing's missing. So far I've been just fine with doing it.

Enough about that, I got it out of my system. Only got into mentioning it since it's going to be part of my day off tomorrow so today I'm going to be doing some research for it, and the one I'll be starting on Monday. I'm also waiting for an apartment secret shop to open up near me so I can work on that one.

But anyway, I just wanted to take a moment to thank the viewers I have for tuning in, it makes me happy to see someone's interested in what's going on.

THAT FUCKING CHIHUAHUA BITCH!!! Sorry... Stephanie invoked rage the other day and it actually got her sent home (thanks again Mike who did the dismissal) for the night. So, I opened the store and by the time the other drivers were coming in we were a bit slammed. So finally, now that there were drivers there besides me and Dave, when I wasn't on a run I could assist in stocking the boxes up front and making more for the back. During one of these trips to fill the front, I've already filled the table up top and was working on pushing forward the boxes below (so I could bring more from the back) and Steph comes over.

Now, I thought there was no need for her to be near me, since I couldn't see the counter top from my vantage point of being below. But I notice her wiping with a dry rag, so I figured out there was a crumb mess from pizza cutting that I didn't see before I got down here to fill the boxes. Out of nowhere I feel a bunch of shit land in my head fur. Why? Because the little fucking tea cup bitch had brushed the crumbs she had been gathering off of the counter and onto my head!

Mt. Lily erupted, miraculously with no cuss words of my own, but I got the attention of Mike who was busy on the make line, and he had Deana (a little mini poodle mix) take over so he could find out what was going on. I told him what he happened and when he asked her what the fuck she had done it for she calmly explained I was in the way. He pointed out there was another edge she could have brushed the crumbs off of and told her to just go home if all she was going to do was cause problems with me again. (Earlier when she first got in every time she saw me headed somewhere she found a way to get in my way and hinder me until Mike told her to stay away from me).

No one, not even Harvey and Ray, two old mutts who are familiar with this female, can figure out what the Hell her issue is with me. They both go way back with her, Harvey more than Ray, but neither of them can figure out why she has an issue with me. I never started anything with her, I just get involved with it when she brings it to me. She is pushing my buttons though. She's way older than me and acting like a child and it's pissing me off since her pettiness is reminding me of my mother, who has more petty than Richard. (Can't believe I broke out a NASCAR joke ><!)

Let me see, what else did I want to talk about? Oh yeah! Xan will be here soon, and I actually have to make a trip up to Jasper to get him a suitcase since it's huge and the cheapest one we could find short notice. Which means I actually have to get off of here so I can do so and get it sent out to him.

ps- Love you all!

I... Am pro-life. In today's society it's a big taboo to admit to something like this, but it's true for me. I'm not saying abortion should NEVER happen, but I don't think it should be used for some of the ways I've known people to use it.

I worked at 7-Eleven for 4.5 years and there was this vixen, Candy (name was altered), who was QUITE popular with the men if you know what I mean. And this is back when I was living in FL. So, this girl was almost always pregnant, yet had no kids. You know why? She was always using abortion to "fix" her problem of "oh shit I'm pregnant again!" that she seemed to keep running into because she didn't like taking B.C. and she hated the feel of condoms. In the state of FL, you are allowed 3 abortions per year, per county.

Now, we lived in Volusia county. She maxed them out, so she started going down to Brevard county. When she maxed them out she went to Flagler county. She came into my store one night to buy more beer, crying because she found out she was preggo, again, and had to save money up to go to Seminole county which is to the left of Volusia county. All of this within the span of one year. How many babies is that? 10, in one year. She died not too long after that abortion from a car accident so no more innocent lives were killed due to her selfishness after that, but the point is in 2010 alone she killed 10 babies. 10.

I don't think it should be used for B.C., it should only occur when someone has been raped, or has a medical problem that will kill them if they have a baby. But because of this...

I'm a terrorist. <--- please click on that for more info...

So I had to get that out, feel free to comment if you want, but remember, to each their own.

Fucking Army...

Fair warning: What you are about to read is because although I am U.S. born, I think this country fights the most stupid fucking ridiculous wars and costs countless lives for no reason other than striking fear into the hearts of other countries. With that being said, you can either continue reading or drop off. But I need to get this out.

When I was a teen I made money for gas to get to and from school while juggling one single car with my gram for work and her work around my schedule. I made that money baby-sitting 2 young rambunctious Dachshund pups named Blake and Tiffany. She was 4 when I started and now she's going to be 18 this year, he's in his 20's and he was only 8 when I started watching them. I watched them for a few years but still kept in touch when I was no longer watching them because from time to time their mom would ask me to be a watcher instead of a sitter since I was basically their friend the older they got on me.

I got her over her fear of horror movie monsters and got her into so many things same with him, but his mountain to overcome was homophobia. As difficult as getting a pup to not cower in fear when Nightmare on Elm Street is on TV. It's safe to say I did get maternal instinct for these 2 even though I have no pups of my own and don't plan to anytime soon to be honest with you.

I jumped on FB for just a moment and that moment was all it took for me to see it. The picture I never thought I would see. My little trouble-making terror standing with her back to the wall wearing with a smile, a full set of army fatigues with news that she was going in when she finished high school... I didn't even know she was interested in going in at all so seeing that was just a huge, unexpected shock for me so I'm not doing too good.

I already hate the whole institution for reasons mentioned above and to know my little not-my-pup is going into that kills me.

 I need to take a break and clarify real quick before someone aims an RPG at my head... I don't have an issues with those people fighting the war, unless they just want to go kill for the fuck of killing and getting away with it (sorry to say it but ya'll do know it's out there otherwise there wouldn't be video proof on youtube). Those who fight because they think it is a good fight, or they're going for any other reason that's good, I have no qualms with them. My gramps fought in WWII, and he was not a senseless man so I know there are people who go in for the good fight. I just have no respect for idiots like this...

But anyway, I hate the thought of dreading the phone call or e-mail that she got killed in some attack from the other side. It's too fucking much for me.

Now that I've got that last blog posted....

So the internet didn't come back until late last night, shortly after I got home, which was dangerously close to midnight after going in at 5. I love 7 hour nights like that, but sadly, my time got wasted on small tip runs that were way far out so I was on the road 30-40 min at a time at a long run instead of squeezing in 2 much shorter runs. The 30-40 minutes would be fine, if it was for a multiple delivery run, but just one? That kills my tips.

Now, before I forget, I need to say thank you to my newest viewers, but I'll save that for after, this is pretty much just a reminder to myself when I re-read before posting. I always forget things ^_^'.

So anyway, lemme do the quick run down of stuff I won't be elaborating on. Basically all that's been going on up until Easter Sunday (which, didn't anyone find it odd that it landed on March 321st this year o.0?) which is where I'll kick back into elaborate mode, is working, sleeping, eating, showering, drinking (not booze), visits with Mary and stressing. That's pretty much it from 3-25 until 3-30... Nothing special enough to mention or elaborate on besides me being in a shitty mood since the internet went down from 3-28 until today.

Now, what makes 3-31 such a special day? I'll tell you this: It has nothing to do with religion...

So back on 3-16 I decided fuck Progressive and their annoying mascot and switched over to Nationwide since they offered me a MUCH better deal for the same exact coverage, plus roadside assistance and vanishing deductible. So I did the switch online and paid my down payment on it and went about my business, until 3-31.

Now, lemme give you some details about 3-31 I was working with Sheby, a Thomson's Gazelle, and Stephen, a badger with a slight stutter problem when he gets stressed, and it's my first time opening my store. I've opened at another store, but no two Domino's are the same in their processes so Sheby and Stephen, who have done this numerous times are helping me learn everything and we start getting a few runs, then out of nowhere we get slammed super hard. We have people waiting and waiting for their food to get their since everyone has decided to start ordering online or calling in and I kid you not... I left the store with one run and when I came back there were six more and it's making my poor Thylacine head spin! x.x

So, I'm on a 3-delivery run, since they were all in the same community (THANK GODS) and I'm on my way back to help knock out more runs when I see lights behind me... I'm running over everything in my head... Was I speeding? Lights out? Tags are fine... So...why?

I pull over and this greyhound walks up to my window and gives me the whole, "Know why I pulled you over?" speech and all I can do is shake my head and ask if my lights were out or anything of that nature and he lets me know the worst thing I could hear at this very moment. "You have no insurance." Aaaaaaaaannnd cue the ice water down the back.

You see, in the state of Georgia, anytime a cop is behind you they have to run your tag to check and see if you're wanted, the car is stolen, license is fine, and of course....insurance. Now, if you have no insurance, legally they can't let you drive away. They tell you to have your boss or someone you know come get you and they tow your car away with a hefty fine until you can bring them proof of insurance. So when he says that to me, I ask him "Can I call my insurance? Because I do have it. Can I call them and find out why it's not showing up for you? Maybe it's just a computer issue?"

He tells me go ahead because if it's just not showing up for him and a rep can verify I do have it, no problem, I can go. I get on the phone with Nationwide, and they let me know what the problem was. You see, when I was back in FL, living with my mom and gram, I was piggy-backing my gram's insurance, and when I moved off onto my own plan, she kept me on as an occasional driver since her eyes are going bad, or if she needed medical attention, I could drive her. When I moved to GA, apparently she never removed me. So when I set everything on-line, the system didn't show me as a driver elsewhere just yet so it accepted everything. What I didn't know was that the minute it did find that, it kicked me out even though I was sent the whole welcome package and everything, including the insurance card I showed the officer.

So they let me know that she needed to remove me from her insurance before they could sign me up and that means going to her local branch. It's Sunday, they won't be open. So I let the cop know what's going on and ask if I can call my gram real quick to pass on the message and he's being real nice and patient so far, thank gods, and tells me to go on ahead. The call with my gram is quick and to the point and she lets me know she'll have my mom take her to the branch tomorrow and after this call I look at the cop, I'm about to cry, I'm about to have a fit, I'm seriously on the verge of a damn anxiety attack and I ask him, can I call my boss so he can get his car topper and give me a ride back to the store?

This is where I almost jumped the cop. He lets me go. He tells me he's hearing everything and he saw I wasn't lying to him or playing stupid when I told him I did have insurance and didn't know that it was actually quite the opposite. I was totally honest with him and he even heard me getting things set up to where I can go ahead and get insurance on my car. I lose it. I broke down crying because he just saved me from towing costs, no insurance fines, and losing my job as a delivery driver. He told me to be careful since he couldn't get me safety for the whole day, or even until I got it all straightened out, but to get it taken care of ASAP and walks back to his car.

I love the fuck out of that cop, because I did get my insurance the next day after gram took my off hers, and everything is fine now on that front. I'm just waiting for my new forms and information. But still.... That cop did me such a huge favor, I'll never forget him.

In other news, Nick the weasel and Stephanie the chihuahua are getting their hours cut more and more since he's not doing good and she's just not friendly at all. She's bossy and rude, I've already mentioned a couple of run-ins with her myself.

Mitch wanted to start doing some employee of the month for drivers and the inside crew, one of each, so I'm trying my damnedest to make sure I get in there at some point ^_^. Yes, I try to best them all.

Anywho, I think that's enough to get you all caught up on what's been going on, and now for my special thank you that I mentioned earlier.

Thank you to Russia and the U.K. for joining the list of those reading my blog! ^-^!!!!! It makes me super happy to have more viewers in other countries. I still have Germany and the U.S. but it's finally expanding further and that makes me do the happy dance! So thank you all very much for watching me now with Germany and the U.S. Much love to all of you!

So this is from 3-28... I wrote it when my internet had first gone down and I thought it would be back on up 3-29, but no such luck and I'll explain in my next entry. Today is 2-parter since I want to get you guys caught up on what's been going on. But here's the delayed entry:

I'm feeling better today, a little anyway... I got some much needed rest, and some much needed smoke blowing up my ass, and I'm back in working order now. Note: I work better when I feel appreciated. I don't know why, it's just the way I work.

But anyway, so thanks to Xan I'm able to keep my car, cos he's awesome like that. But now I'm just working on keeping a roof over Nojuan and I's head while saving money towards my next car payment. I have money towards it, but that money is going to go to paying Xan back when I can have the time in a day to actually go to a store and wire him the money I owe him for helping me out the way he has.

But anyway, I've been sleeping as late as I can to make up for how late the two of us keep staying up due to visits with Mary to help with post-work pains. I've got lower spine deterioration so going up and down apartment stairs, and getting in and out of the car as often as I do during the night is affecting my left hip in a pretty bad way. But I have to do what it takes to get money, even if it does hurt me. That's part of working though.

As per the smoke blowing, that happened the other night at work, and yesterday afternoon when another store called me. I worked at another store a couple days ago, doing their open shift and then went to my store after, as mentioned in the last entry, yesterday morning the manager called me to see if I could work a day shift for her. When I let her know I worked 5:30-8:30 at my store last night, she was let down, and was pretty vocal about it. Not in a bitchy way, but in a sad, let down way which made me smile.

The other night though I had to deliver to a hotel in Hotel Row, a cluster of a few hotels, and it was for the front desk, but when I got there, the lady let me know she had to call down the person who was paying for it. She told me to put my smile on since it was from my corporate office. I thought she was joking... No, she wasn't. Guy comes down, hands me his card, introduces himself and his friend.

Oh my fucking god, this guy is my boss' boss, and if I fuck this up I'm fucked fucked fucked!!! <---That was me on the inside. On the outside, I was calm, cool, collected, smiling and laughing at the right points, and trying not to piddle myself. Got it all said and done and when I got back to my store, I told Mitch about meeting the guy and he let me know he had to call him since that was the rule. Once someone has the kind of run in I did, he has to call the guy and ask what his view of me was. What I got to hear on my side was a bunch of ass-kissing and smoke blowing up my ass on Mitch's end.

 In the end, turns out I made an impression on the guy because Mitch let me know he was  impressed with my level of customer service and how I handled the situation. Apparently if he hadn't liked me then Mitch would have been letting me go that night. *phew* Time to collapse on the floor and breathe an even bigger sigh of relief.

Oh! I got Nojuan to try pizza from Domino's, which he hadn't done in years and he liked it! Apparently they're much better now than they had been when he last ate their pizza. So it's now safe to bring home pizzas if we have money to spare since I get half off pizzas anyway. Well, I think I've chatted enough, so I'm going to head off. I have a couple more things to do before work.

Signing off,
