Entitled assholes are everywhere. Two examples.
1) At lunch I went to a taco diner in one of the buildings here downtown. I went to the "To Go" line because I was getting my food to go. The girl behind the counter said that that line was just for pick up if you called in. I thought that was a bit unclear, but whatever, my mistake. (Turns out it wasn't, girl was just new). So not worth fighting over, even on Free Taco Tuesday, when lines are a bit longer than normal.
Contrast to
2) One of hubby's coworkers was at the bar when a drunk girl and her friend spilled their glasses of wine all down one of the wells. Sweet faced K pours them another glass, and they proceed to insist that they shouldn't have to pay for either the original glasses or the replacements, that he obviously doesn't know customer service, and they'd like their keys so they can leave as it's obviously NOT the place for them even though they should be catered to because they have been coming there for 15 years (It's been open 14 next month) and they have never been treated that way! (K has been there 13 years, same as hubs). @@@@
Service Industry people: "Our entitled assholes, let us show you them."
My phone interview today went pretty well.
Hooray! Cause, as you see, we've been trying to get you all psyched up for a career in academia!
My mother would slap the pores off my face if I ever spoke to ANYONE like that.
Maybe "our" government would make more sense if you just pictured the babbling maniac in front of most public libraries in actual leadership positions.
Those are who's in charge right now...Library Conspiracy Theorist and the lady on the bus who's always wicked mad at her daughter-in-law. That's it.
It makes me sick. I should make T-shirts..."I went to a state college and all I got was folksy fascism and this crappy t-shirt."
That sounds potentially promising, Hil. Jobma your way!
Must go to Target now. I am superexcited, because, now that I am insured again, I can get rid of the giant, horrible, fall-off-after-wearing-two-days-when-I-need-to-wear-them-for-a-week, dermatitis-causing, leave 3" circles of red, itchy patchiness on my butt for weeks, generic HRT patches, and go back to the wee clear ones I wear for 2.5 days that stay on and leave no marks.
I HATED THE GENERICS SO MUCH.
Whew. Off now!
Holy fuck, Sox. I just Googled to see what the latest wtf'ery was, and...appalling is just a tiny, measly word that doesn't even come close to expressing it.
Back with new patches, which are $5 cheaper with D's insurance than with my last one, and they are thinner, smaller and even less obtrusive than I remembered.
HELL YEAH.
I looked at CNN -- link to OK info, please? I can't find anything.
Oh, hell NO.
I am appalled, and disgusted. It's bad enough, but the part about forcing rape and incest victims to do so as well? That's another violation, and perhaps even more traumatic than the first victimization.
That, to me, is a human rights violation. That's torturous, lacks compassion, sense, mercy....GOD.
Fuck you, OK legislators. Fuck you with a giant stick infected with syphilis, and I'ma make you kiss it afterwards and call it George. You smug, self-righteous, shit-eating rat-bastards.
