Oh don't listen to me, I never do.
Can't believed I missed this: Blog Like It's the End of the World
I have a Zombie Plan, too, dang it!
At work, whenever something get broken or comes broken in the box, we have to take it to the back and write out this little slip saying what it is, what’s wrong with it, its UPC number, etc. As I was taking this clothes rack back, I noticed this little slip for a returned item that read “Dead Frog.” (Yeah, we sell frogs. I learned this when one escaped from the tank and there was a frog-hunt). And if you by something living that dies within a few days, you can return it.
So anyway, seeing “Dead Frog” (there was no frog attached, thank Merlin), a question popped into my head. I asked Jason (who does the pet department) at lunch, “When you have to write up dead fish and need to come up for a reason, are you ever tempted to write “Pining for the Fjords?”
Denise N. was sitting next to us. I’ve never seen her laugh so hard. Apparently I make her laugh harder when I'm not trying then when I do try.
(Answer’s no. He doesn’t write up dead fish, he ticks off how many died on a sheet of paper. I always feel so bad for those poor Wal*Mart fish)
The Wal*Mart vests are getting retired. I have to turn mine in to get scrapped. I like the vest; they are efficent and the pockets are large and useful. But apparently it’s cheaper to give new people two cheapo dark blue shirts and be done with it than have to give everyone a new vest every year or two.
