For a moment I thought you were speaking about asshole customers, and had questions about the foam board.

What do people use to create protest signs? Is there some sort of special paper t keep them from being floppy?

I've just used a cardboard box cut up, but I think most people use posterboard. One guy I saw today had his taped to a lacrosse stick, which I enjoyed a great deal.

Thanks to everybody going out to protest. You all are an inspiration.

What happened, sj? If you want to talk about it. If not, then may jock itch consume them.

Thanks y'all. Today's protest was a good experience so if there's another one (unfortunately, I'm sure we'll need more), I'll see about getting some signage going. As it was, I got lots of photos of other people's signs and joined in a bunch of chanting. There were a lot of people there registering voters, which was nice to see (and maybe more useful than me shouting "families belong together" in the long run). I should check in with the local Dems and see about doing voter reg. again.

sj, I'm sorry about the asshole. It's bad enough dealing with them when you're getting paid, much less as a volunteer.

True.

Thank you to all who protested. I'm still in Otter Lake, and could possibly have found something within 50 miles, but too time crunched.

Beverly, customer camr in asking about donating books. We're not accepting donations at this time because too many of the shelvers are headed on vacation. I try to explain this to him in several different ways, but he won't leave and won't stop explaining to me that he has to donate them today. Finally I just tell him to leave them because I want him to go. I tell him to leave them in the hallway outside the store. He says he should bring them into the store. I said no and reiterated that donations go in the hall. He sarcastically replies that he is so sorry to inconvenience me. Then he gets mad at me for getting on my phone to text the woman in charge of shelving to let her know that there are books to be put away. As he leaves he rolls his eyes at me and says "Don't worry I know the type" again sarcastically. I went out later to see what he left, a bunch of philosophy and psychology books that he may have read but obviously didn't get anything useful out of, thinking I know his type too.

Timelies all!

sj, what a total douchenozzle.

I am not protesting today because we are packing for camp and there is SO MUCH LAUNDRY. But after today I don't have to do kid laundry again for three weeks! Woot!

I am impressed with anyone protesting in the NYC area today because it's close to 100 degrees and humid and awful. I hope everyone remembered sunscreen and lots of water!!
