I feel old (not in a self-pity way)
I've always felt mature for my age. Basically, I am just waiting for my actual age to catch up with me. So when I say I feel old, I am serious.
Today I went to a coffee meeting for Shruby. When I got there it was time for self-introductions. We were supposed to say our name, store, number of Christmases we've had at the bucks, and what are some holiday traditions. When it was my turn, I was counting with my fingers to see how many Christmases... (saying to myself: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005...) I looked up and I blurted out, "This is my 5th Christmas, holy crap" with the DM sitting right next to me. Time flies, non? Christmas at the bucks is always such an event. I used to get excited, but now I'm just tired of it. Retail Christmas is not Christmas. And you know it.
A lot of things doesn't bother me, because I look at things in perspective. Sounds grand, might not even be true in most cases. But feels good to say it anyways.
Last week I worked with A and C. Boys, slacking off. I said, "Are we working or are we chatting?" really loudly. They came out, looking sheepish. A asked me if I found any customers annoying. In his case, this lady who asks for extra-hot, A would make it, she would go to the ladies' room, and come back for her drink. Obviously, after sitting there for a few minutes, the drink got cold, and that's precisely what she told A. She made A remake her drink, and give her a SRcoupon. Bitch. I couldn't think of any off the top of my head. If I see an annoying customer, I just rant about them in the backroom and let go. Like this lady who came in asked for grande long americano. Three shots of espresso goes in there, but the machine automatically makes four. So we usually just let the last one drip out on its own. I was explaining to the green bean how to make it, the lady overheard it and said, you can just give me that extra shot. I was like, okkkkk. Went to the back and said to whoever, "I hate greedy people." Seriously, extra espresso shot is 55 cents. If you don't pay it, you don't get it.
I do rant, haha.
I am keeping a list of things that annoys me. So far I only have:
1. My sister calling Port Coquitlamd "PoCo" as if it's something cool. Things gotta stop!! It was cool when J.Lo did it, but not so much, Bennifer, Brangelina, TomKat, KFed, so on and so forth. God I hate it.
2. I forgot
But I will remember soon...
Will watch Borat, Babel, and Stranger than Fiction. Who's with me? (wink wink ellie)
