Here we go again.

The life of a crafter does not lend itself to too many other pursuits. Add that to responsibilities, and things like needing to shower, and eat once in a while, and sleep... sleeping's good...  I tend to forget that I started this blog.

Working on gifts for everyone again, and realizing that I might actually make it is a pretty cool feeling.   So, since I will continue to be a blog slacker, I figure you deserve a bit of my own personal retail hell...
After I found my scraps of paper and receipts last time, I instantly lost them again, and ... well ... They've been in the notebook I keep next to my computer this whole time.

Duh.

We could start with the very pleasant girl who chatted with me the whole time she was making her med. sized coffee.... With 15 (I counted, because she did each one individually!) Splenda packets, then hit in 4 flavor shots in ex. large cup concentrations, (in other words, 1 would go in an ex-lg coffee cup, to flavor that much coffee.) took a sip, claimed the coffee was disgusting and tossed it in the garbage without paying for it.

Or a mildly funny.,.
We kept the gas station at about 70 degrees all year long.  On one particularly hot summer day, I could see folks walking toward the door, all sweaty and pissy, walk through the door and have this look of wonder cross their faces, and then smile and sigh. Every. Single. One.

And to finish it off, a jaw dropper...
A customer comes up the the U-scan... puts everything through until she gets to her bananas.  She's staring at the screen, and is completely ignoring my calls to her to see if she needed help.  She finally turns to me and asks, "Is this a fruit or a vegetable?"
No. Kidding.

Well, off to finish up a row! ( :

Have a great week, and as usual... Thanks for noticing me!
