A manager fired an employee for giving what amounts to a single "donut hole" to a toddler. Total retail worth? 16 cents.
I'm glad she got her job back. Craziness firing someone for good customer service.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

Exactly! I make sure to take a trip to my parents' Dunkin' Donuts every time I take Toto out there (and often, any other time) because it is such a fun experience for him. He knows where we are, and they just dote on him. They get more money from me because of that. And I kind of thought that was the whole purpose of the donut hole! To keep kids occupied and happy while their parents do the big Sunday Donut Order. But, maybe I'm crazy.
So, it looks like a package got stolen off of my porch, which is so surprising. I'm very frustrated, as it is part of my babysitting charge's birthday present, which we celebrated last week. I told her I'd have the rest this week because it shipped late. So, not only will I not have it for her tomorrow, but I'm probably going to have to pay for it again.

Now I want a donut. Fortunately there's a deli in my building.
ION, I'm seeing Eddie Izzard tonight!!!!
And it's also exactly 15 years (!) since I graduated from college. Of the 4 roommates I had in college, 3 are married and have kids, and the other just won a fucking *Emmy* award. Overachiever.

Ok. Remember my situation with MassHealth a few weeks ago. It has actually gotten worse. On hold for a supervisor right now. Not-flip-my-lid~ma appreciated.

I swear. These people are incompetent. The guy I just spoke with said, "Well, ma'am it takes 15 days to process that."
My response: "Um, according to my math, April 18 was well over 15 days ago."
"Well, then I don't know why it hasn't been processed."
Well, do you think you might want to look into that? Instead, he transfered me to someone else in a different office because the supervisor in his office wouldn't be able to help me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
"Well, then I don't know why it hasn't been processed."
Oh, for crap's sake.

Now I'm getting, "Your income was verified on April 11."
"How could it have been verified on the 11th if I didn't bring in the paperwork until the 18th?"

God, vw. What the fucking fuck!?!?!? Also, sorry that your package got stolen. Between that and the MassHealth stuff, it is not looking like a good day for Teh Humans.
