A Second Helping of TCG
* A customer said, angrily, “Why have your roses gone up so much? Roses always go DOWN for Valentine’s Day.” Okay. On which planet? I’d just like to know so I can go work there next February, because I am seriously sick of hearing the complaints.
* Boss asked me if the new asst mgr is gay. I said, “Has he hit on you?” and he said, indignantly, “Ew, no!” (Because being hit on by someone of the same sex is, apparently, disgusting?) I said, “Well, he hasn’t hit on me, either. So, I guess the jury is still out.”
* One coworker loves jesus. I mean REALLY loves jesus. So much, in fact, that she can’t help but tell everyone who comes in the store about him. Normally, I am a big fan of “whatever floats your boat” but, when I am really busy and she has nothing but time to proselytize, I want to ask her if What Jesus Wouldn’t Do is get off of his ass and help me.

Ooooooh, I hate/loathe/despise Jesusy co-workers. Unless you’re wearing a habit, keep that shit to yourself.

I always enjoy being hit on by someone of the same sex. I’m not gay, but it always brightens my day.
Sounds like jewish name co-worker needs to attend sensitivity training a la Prince Harry.

[...] *Jesus-loving coworker injured herself a week ago, and has been limping around and generally acting pitiful, since. Seriously, lady, you TRIPPED. We all trip. I pretty much trip for a goshdarn living! get over it! anyway, today, during one of her few upright times, I noticed she was wearing a silver necklace (think Carrie Bradshaw’s “Carrie” necklace in Sex and the City”) that said “Try God”. How is that appropriate work wear? Pretty sure I would not get away with “Try Allah”, “Try Buddha”, or, because pot-stirring is my favorite hobby, “Try Satan” in some godawful (pun not intended but left on principle) electroplate.
