RL - is assault really a crime?
AM - that's the thing, you can't amil anything down here. They steal everything that is mailed. I'll be all right, I just needed to rant and rave a little bit. Thanks for the offer.
The funny thing was, I went with The Kid, so of course there was a toy involved. So we're checking out and I'm watching this young man at the register. It was truly amazing. He did one thing at a time and only one thing. He would ring up each item, then fold each item, then place each item in the bag, then tear off the receipt from the register, have the customer sign, then place each item in the basket.
Over and over again, just like they trained him to do. It never once occurred to him to do things in a different, more efficient manner. Like give the customer the receipt so they could be signing while he put the items in the bag.
Amazing. I was going to check for respirations, but then I saw his chest moving. And since he was standing, I'll go out on a limb and say he had a pulse. 20 years-old and brain dead as can be. Mouth breather with an attitude.
