We get paid about two weeks after the end of the pay period. For example: this payperiod ends tomorrow - we'll get paid for it on the 28th. And we'll get paid for the next payperiod on March 15th.
Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The cashier at the supermarket's only express checkout lane snotted at me that it was for valentines only
WTF is this bullcrap?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
If it's really a hassle, can you choose to get paid by check on payday rather than via the so-called convenience of direct deposit?
(I've also waited three weeks for a paycheck. Oh, that was no fun. And then the day I got paid my ATM card didn't work and I couldn't deposit the check...I cried to the bank lady.)

Valentine's only check out line? WTF ! I'd be calling the manager to complain, especially after being stuck behind Crazy Cat Lady.

Yeah. Because apparently making sure the one other guy in the lane was able to get out swiftly with his $3 single rose is more important than relieving the backup of four-cart deep grocery lanes where people are spending high double or low triple digits each.
I'm going back after work tonight and having a sit-down with their manager.

If that happened to me, I'd just stay put until summer, I swear.
You know what helped? The people who kept stopping to point and laugh. I am capable of superhuman power when thoroughly enraged.

Seriously, send a complaint. They are very cathartic!
