Amusing Stuff at Work
First and foremost, I just want to say that my disdain for the South has grown leaps and bounds since starting to work for the New Place. Just today, there were several Southern people in, and when one of them came to the counter to pay for her items, she expressed interest in a weird pseudo-painting of America/freedomville Patriot crap, which had a silhouette of Lincoln on it. Well, she noticed Lincoln, and that was the end of THAT. I know Old Abe has never been too popular in the South, but why is everyone hating on him all the sudden?? If anything, he was one of the most fair and reasonable men that have ever had the honor to be President. But hey, cling to an old, racist dream that never had any chance of going anywhere to begin with, and while you're at it, scapegoat the one man with any degree of power who wanted to take it easy on the South when it became clear the North would win the war.
As George Carlin said of the South, "I have trouble understanding Southerners. Some of them sound like they're chewing on a dick. And I really have nothing against them individually; one by one they can be quite charming. But when you take them as a whole, there's some really dangerous genetic material floating around down there."
Yeah, but today was interesting. The top marks go to the couple who came in, picked up the set of old timey handcuffs we had, and asked if they worked. When shown that they would, they promptly bought not one, but TWO pairs of handcuffs. I fear I just sold perfectly good old timey handcuffs to a freakish bondage couple who will use them in their crazy, scary, and down-right disturbing fetish parties.
The joys of working in retail in Gettysburg, PA....
