Of course you may move today
said Res Life.
Surprise! said RA.
Your new room won't be vacated until May 7th, so you can't move in!
Sorry!
Not that I spent all night packing and cleaning like an coked-up speed fiend... which I did.
Not that EVERYTHING I own resides in various boxes, down to our very shower curtain...which it is.
Not that I took off work today...
Not that I fumed so much I ended up buying a jar of olives
for the sole purpose of making martinis.
Is 10:30 too early in the morning to start drinking?
* * * And now, for some WaiterRant (ps. I highly suggest
www.WaiterRant.net) * * *
I am a barista at a relatively well-known coffee establishment. You've probably heard of it. We're everywhere. And if you haven't bought coffee from us you've at least taken a moment to curse our ability to go forth and multiply.
But that is not the point of this entry. I have no desire to shake my fist at Corporate America (Version 2.0: Granola and Soy). They pay me well, support third world organic growers, and the coffee's delicious.
That being said, onto my tantrum-esque rant.
If you are this man, you Are An Idiot:
Me: "I have a grande green tea frap and a grande mocha light!"
Man: *grabs both fraps* "Um. I don't know about this mocha light--I only wanted the green tea frap."
Me: "You only wanted a green tea frap?"
Man: *still holding both drinks* "Yes."
Me: *pause* "So you didn't order a mocha light."
Man: "No."
Me: "So it's.. not yours."
Man: "Oh." *still holding both*
Random Girl Waiting Next To Man: "Excuse me, is that my mocha light frap?"
In other words, let us draw this conclusion:
If you did not order the drink
it is
NOT YOURS
and probably belongs to the person waiting in line behind you.
Therefore, you should not take it
and inform me you did not order it
because (again)
IT IS NOT YOURS.
I also still suggest a tall non-fat blackberry white mocha and an M&M cookie because that is what happiness tastes like.
