simple minds

honestly, i would donate blood if it weren't for the slogan:
"give a little, get a lot."
it just sounds greedy.

i work in retail, and the thing about working in retail is that it sucks. why? because not everyone works in retail. and people who don't work in retail don't know how much it sucks to work in retail.
seriously, five minutes to close and you wanna march right into my store? the music is off, the door is half closed, we're counting the cash in the register, i mean really.
give me the address to your office. how about you work a 9 - 5 shift and i'll storm in at 4:55 and toss all your paperwork and shit around the place and ask you to discuss my finances with me. better yet, how about i make a fuckin' mess of your shit and then leave without saying a word or actually doing any legitimate business with you? deal? deal.
but ignorance is bliss, huh?
yep, take your time. enjoy your private shopping spree, at the expense of those of us who have been on our feet for eight hours at a time and would like to go home and write an entry in their blog about your idiocy.

... is that just me?

i accidentally cut myself at work today, and when a toddler saw my blood, he started to cry.
his mom tried her best to shut him up and i went to get a band-aid, but i just kept thinking
"why don't we all share our pain like that?"
then i put on the band-aid to cover the cut and thought
"oh."

later the woman started arguing with her friend over who got to buy a hat that there was only one of.
the kid kept saying, "you guys can share it! why don't you share it?"
but the adults ignored him.

ignorance is bliss...

"give a little, get a lot."
the mindset of a nation.
