i am anxiously awaiting the day when i get internet on my own computer.  i desperately need to update my typelists, and i just don't remember what to put there.  and it's bothering me because they haven't changed in a month.

i finally have a day off before my next stint of six days in a row at target.  so far i haven't gotten much accomplished (meaning i haven't done laundry yet and my work clothes are on the verge of unwearable).  but i did get a haircut and had a short discussion with my stylist about tipping.  which i did, but probably not enough.  if she's still there next time i'll make it up to her. 

yesterday i went to guest services while i was at work because there wasn't anyone scheduled from 4 until 5.  i know, who makes these schedules, right?  anyway, there was a woman there who was trying to return three socks that had gotten holes in them.  she didn't have anything except these three socks, not even the rest of them that came in the package.  my poor coworker was trying to explain that we can't do anything with just those three socks (and, by the way, they looked nasty.  i'm sure they've been worn enough to justify them getting holes) and she requested to see our supervisor who told her the exact same thing.  then she got all pissy and went off shopping.  and then when she was finished she demanded a form to fill out a complaint.  it was so hilarious in retrospect!  people are such idiots.

which gives me an updated list of things that annoy me that people do:

• put their purses on the belt to count out change and then complain that the belt is moving.  that's why we have a separate counter.  move on dear and let the next person unload their items.



• put their change on the belt.  now that's just stupid.  (also, coupons.)



• when i ask if they found everything, they reply "no, but that's okay."  how the hell am i supposed to respond to that?



• write in the register before the check.  i think i've said this before, but it's just as annoying to wait for people now as it was then.  along with that, if you are waiting in line, start your check while you are waiting.  we have pens, you can ask for one.   it's nice for everyone all around.



• people who wait in line on one line while there are five more open.  if you are that stupid, i'm not going to point out there are five lanes with no waiting.  you deserve to stand in line. 

i actually do like my job most of the time.  the people at this target are really nice and some of them are way less annoying than the people i used to work with.  i just get so annoyed because some people are such idiots about things.  next week i have to close service desk one night and i'm not sure if i'm looking forward to it or not.

also next week though is my birthday and i'm super excited.  i'm goin to have a party but so far i don't know who will show up. 

and i have two minutes left so i guess i should save this.  i feel so discombobulated.  i want to edit! but i musn't!
