when i worked in a call cnetre i had a drunk guy ring up who started of talking about his question and then ended up just chatting to me for over an hour about a load of repetitive rubbish....the rules of the call centre were that you couldnt hang up until the caller had hung up so i had to sit and listen ad reply while my manager was getting so annoyed and eneded up yelling at me which resulted in this man swearing about her and giving of to her hehe

Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

I worked at house of fraser for a couple years in menswear. Luckily i wasnt in that day but apparently I guy went to try a shirt on, was a while in the changing room, went to buy the shirt n jus helled the tag out to the assistant. She said shed fold it and bag it for him but he was just liek "oh its fine dont worry" n so on but she said its ok she doesnt mind doing it, he freaked, dropped it on the counter and ran out....I feel so sorry for whoever had the strength to open up the shirt to see why he got so freaked...sticky...whiteish....yes....I am glad to say the shirt was thrown away.



"I walked home alone that night. I didn't care how she got home, it was weird. I mean, I *liked* her, I liked her A LOT...but out there on the field, it was just different then. That was the last time I saw her. I mean, most people don't taste that kind of love- at least I tasted it once, right?"

See I cannot feel this, not matter how you try and in the real world, there's no goodbyes.

Stare at the hands, you know you want to ;).

They were doing reno's at work to put a new part of the counter in and they were working on the wall which had a water pipe in it. The workers hit it and water sprayed everywhere, what was worse, I got sprayed serving customers. I went home sopping wet and shivering that day as i had to walk home.
There are lots and lots of others.
Like the time one of my managers went to sit down on a bread trolley but it fell out beneath him before he sat down.
Oh and i literally fell out a window, luckily it was only ground level but yeah pretty embarrassing.




My Blog, come pick at my brain.

At boy scout camp we (my program area) moved a canoe into the rafters of the dinning hall with a full set of paddles and PFDs
