Grievances.

Word of Warning. This post isn't very nice.

A short list of things I could do without as a Wal-Mart Associate:

1. Children. Hordes of terrible, shrieking brats infest the walls of that store, their skinny limbs constantly flailing, their paws always grabbing at merchandise, their mouths painted red with either a dried mixture of saliva

If you care:

1. That's PRECISELY why I'm not having children. They suck ass.
2. I'm not even going to go into fat people...
3. I have left my house all of maybe five times so far this summer and have run into no fewer than ten people who have come running up to me acting like I "know" them. Thank goodness I'm not the only one that pisses off.
4. I shalln't go into this one, either.
5. If one more black guy comes up to me with some sort of invitation to another "hip-hop rap-athon" or something, I'll shave my goddamn head.
6. ...*sigh* Mexicans...
7. I never noticed just how easy it really IS to mutter the word "cunt"!

Above all, I'm sorry you had to be a door greeter. That's why I'm not getting a job this summer. Fuck money, it's just not worth it to me.

I'm kind of impressed you can pull off the Wal-mart things. Wal-mart, along with fastfood resturaunts en masse and janitorial work are the jobs that I can't possibly imagine myself having the patience and restraint for.

Haha, I love working a small movie theater because it's like people have to pay a cover charge.

Except that the VIP lounge is playing fucking Bewitched. Haha.

you are amazing. hands down, you kick ass. Not only did you word that in such a way that I laughed/cried like a baby, you hit on some honest points. Although I suppose tolerance is a virtue, so is speaking your mind. Wal-mart....You'll run into any and everybody there.
You also sang from Avenue Q. My heart leaps to your side to shovel-smack any bitches that want to glare at you for being black, unable to interpret spanish, cause problems by not being able to fit through the door, reproduce more like bacteria than human, and talk degrading to you because you arent born with the knowledge of working at a deplorable part-time waste-of-life job that some people (generally the ones giving you problems) can only dream of having.
