"Parents": I had a kid come into the store the other day and ask to use the phone. He looked no older than thirteen, but listening to his phone conversation, he kept talking about driving and following somebody, so I assumed this little guy had been driving, which was horrifying to me, but what am I to do? He talked for about 15 minutes, and when he hung up, he looked me right in the eyes, shrugged, and said, "Parents".
*About an hour later, the phone rang and a woman asked if that kid who "Just used the phone" was still around. I told her that was like an hour ago and he was gone. She told me he was supposed to meet Justin and be home 45 minutes ago. I have no idea who Justin is. I don't care.
Someone gets paid for this: The store music at JCPenney is probably the worst music you can listen to, besides the stock room music. What really upsets me about it is that we get new songs all the time. Obviously someone is getting paid to find shitty songs. It's someone's job to sift through all the bullshit and find the dirtiest, nastiest bullshit they can and shove it down my throat every day at work. I'm glad I called in sick today.
Dots: I can't stress to you enough how awesome dots are. I was looking at the box at the flavors they have. Lemon, Lime, Orange, Strawberry and Cherry. The cherry is red, the strawberry is a slightly less red. Most other candies won't dare slip you two flavors so similar. They either have strawberry or cherry and thats it. Dots doesn't give a shit what you think. Also, they have lemon and lime as two seperate flavors, which is amazing. Most companies have lemon and sour apple. Don't get me wrong, I love sour apple. But Dots just has balls.
Mountain Dew: Game Poison: I had my friends over recently. It was supposed to be an innocent night of halo, mountain dew and rape, but something went horribly wrong. When purchasing the mountain dew: game fuel, I didn't actually look at the ingredients, so how was I supposed to know it was nearly 80% arsenic? Seriously, if you drink this, you will feel like shit. My other friends felt the effects immediatly, but I didn't feel them until the next day. But when you feel it, you feel it. Don't get me wrong, this drink is delicious. I don't recommend drinking more than half of a can a day.
