Grumpy.

[same_sky]

I'm feeling anti-social and grumpy today. I did not in any way want to work today, but well, I had to and stuff. When I wasn't working, I felt all guilty and stuff about being home all day and squandering a college degree. Now I'm still squandering the degree, but I have to work all the time and never have time for all the fun things I want to do. Tell me again why this is a good thing?

I also got yelled at by an old man today. Apparently, I did not bag the bananas to suit him. I never realized that there was a particular skill in bagging bananas, but seemingly, there is, and I do not possess it. Of course, no one else complains about my banana-bagging skills, so maybe I should have just refused to sell him any bananas at all for being mean. And while I'm griping.. what's with people who come in and ask if the corn/cherries/nectarines/peaches are any good? What the heck do they think I'm going to say? "Nah, man, that stuff is crap. Go buy it at Kroger."? I hardly think so. Those plums are paying my hourly wage, by golly.

Anyway. Moving past produce, if I can. M went to Wally World to get a few things, and I couldn't bear the thought of seeing any more people, so I stayed home. I'm rather anti-social, by nature. I'm really fine with that, now that I've realized it and can work with it. But when I wake up in a don't-even-talk-to-me mood, it sucks tremendous amounts to work in retail. :) People wear me down after a while. So I'm thoroughly enjoying the silence at the moment, and my next stop is the couch with a book. And I'm going to pretend that I don't remember that I have things that need done.. for at least an hour or two. :)

I guarantee you people are idiots. I have never understood why people ask if something you're selling is any good. @_@ If you figure out the 'trick' to bagging bananas, do share! *LOL*

*huggles* This one guy came in and stood, pondering a watermelon last week. He finally asked me, in a skeptical voice, if the watermelons were any good. I answered (truthfully) that I hadn't had any, but my parents ate one the night before and said that it was the best watermelon they'd ever had. And then he left. Without buying a watermelon. What kind of recommendation would have made him purchase the darned thing, if that didn't do it?! And if he wasn't going to buy it, then why ask?! Arrgh!
