I take it you've never been to Walmart.

well of course. But that's what I mean - those diligent souls are stocking shelves. None of them ever came up to give me the sell on a plasma screen. It was more like a tired whispering of, " I'll drag one out of the back."

Nah. I love my job.
I've worked in customer-facing jobs since I was 18. Food & beverage, sales - I enjoy the pace and the constant interaction with people.

Just a long day yesterday. Nothing a bit of sleep won't fix.

I am trying to find a youtube that goes with this.



And yes, there are WORSE, horrific, terrible and saddening REAL PROBLEMS in this world than whether or not a person "likes" you in a forum.

Tough one but I'd say Skinner.

Can somone summarize Seven Seas post? I really can't be bothered to read that. I've wasted too much youtube time on her posts already.
