this might take a few posts 1.2

okay so there was no real reason to start a new post, but I had already committed to the whole number, decimal, number thing, so I kind of at least had to have a . two.

now I'd like to take a second to get a little something off of my chest. Since moving up here (Northern VA/DC) I run into a lot more people just in day to day life, which is fine by me, but the real blower, is how serious so many people manage to take themselves, really? wow. I will admit, I am not the first person to say this and will not belabor the point here. However, it bears being said that people by and large, will wield whatever bit of authority/and or power, at their disposal for ANY REASON. I mean, it doesn't matter where you stand on the overall totem pole of,well, anything really, people will indeed get a "tone" with anyone beneath them.

Me and The Lady are in Random Grocery Store 237 and check out boy is straight HEATED(yes, typing in caps is my new thing, don't worry I don't see it lasting long as I keep forgetting to stop undoing caps lock)HEATED that The Lady has done something to warrant calling his supervisor over, who has the "ultra code" that will fix this. Now, I can say the following with first hand experience, I used to work for Random Super Mega Store Membership Only Store 178 for a few months and used to think this then. But, why in the heck don't they just let everyone working the line know this dag on code? I mean really, what is the big secret? are you going to invite all your buddies in so that they can come in your line and get all the 4 for $3.00 Ritz on sale? The manager with the code, or the key, or the wand, or the shamwow, whatever, they use these days is never just standing around. They are never just standing thinking,"man, I sure wish someone would flick on their light so I could enter the password" no, these managers are off doing something way obscure like restocking Western Union Spanish forms from storage, which is upstairs, yeah, you didn't even know there was an upstairs, or they're mopping up some pickle juice cause the part time kid just didn't show up today, or my personal favorite, they're five lanes down putting in the code and have to make two more stops before they get to you. Which really comes down to a matter of simple productivity, does it honestly make more sense for one person to know a magic sequence of digits to make work easier, or for a lot of people to have this same information.

Anyway, ole boy is all huffy puffy, and sighing all heavy, carrying on. Speaking OF WHICH,(testing you) sighing has got to be, the most punk/powerful way to get your point across. In any situation sighing will either convey a powerful message, look at me sighing over here proving my point. Or you will be what I call a sighee one who is sighing as a misfortunate course of events leading him to this predicamenet. Few Examples: You get laid off, You step in gum, You forgot to DVR your show last night, He's late...again, She's Late...again. Anyhow you get it, that really had nada to do with nada, but I was just thinking about sighing.

So old boy is trying to be the sigher like "lemme sigh flex on these two right quick before boss lady gets here" but it came across as "oh look at me I'm 16 and think someone cares Im sighing" I mean really, what did he expect from me, an apology, sorry man shouldn't have got the bread, didnt know it would short the system. But when I looked down at the bagger, this chick was EATING IT UP, I mean she was like all into it on some, ohhhh he just punked them wit dat sigh!!! kill em, kill these aisle 7 breakin fools, break em down boy break em down!!! Because honestly, to her, in their world he has more power and therefore he's really coming across as "that guy" meanwhile Im over here on some "this guy"ole ashtmatic. Boss lady comes over all flustered and talking backwards grocery talk, "wonk gnorw stahw?" soon as he tells her, she unleashes a mother load of a sigh that slices directly through not only his previous punk fairy like sigh, but through all breaths he had ever took, heck, if memory serves me correct, he may have even hiccuped through some wierd sort of wind suction voice modification, what? Once she finishes the sigh which was complete with matching eye roll, she parlayed that into a one hand ultra sonic key-code combo that Im sure went down in the grocery hall of fame. I mean she did the whole code and key thing, and didn't even have to touch the other set of 53 keys in her other hand ( I mean damn, how many doors yall got in here). See now in this instance she was definately flexing her power on old boy, and would have been little lady to but she scurried off to aisle 13 when Boss Lady walked up. However, her total disdain for this boy and his mere insolence even got me a little shook, in retrospect...sorry about the bread
