At work, we have decided that we are going to have a "stupid customer quote of the week". Here is the conversation that led up to this decision and what this weeks quote is.
N: Hi, what can I get you? (As I am putting freshly fried chicken into the hot case)
Customer: Um, what are your chicken prices?
N: (Thinking...bitch, read the damn sign it tells you) Well, I am not sure how many pieces you are wanting to purchase but we have a 12 piece on sale for $9.99.
(And here is the Quote of the Week)
C: (While staring at the fried chicken that I just placed in the hot case) So is it already fried and everything?
(Barb walks around the corner to hid so she can laugh her ass off and leave me there to help this stupid ass lady without bursting out laughing)
N: Um, yeah, it is the same chicken that I just put in the case.
C: OH WOW, what a great deal, I will take that.
I just wish people would think before they open their mouths and stupid falls out.
Now, for my observation of the day. As I pulled up to a stop light on Havelock and Cornhusker hwy, I noticed that the SUV in front of me have a Busch light can balanced perfectly on the bumper underneith the right tail light. Now for some reason my easily distracted brain became obsessed with this and luckily, the SUV was going the same direction as I was. I wondered to myself how long this can would stay there. I began to follow the SUV in the right lane while it was in the left, but since the car in front of me was going to slow and I feared losing the SUV I moved to the other lane and sped up. Here is what I observed.
1. The can stayed on for 30 city blocks (probably more, but SUV turned and I lost it)
2. The can stayed on for 6 large potholes.
3. The can stayed on at an average of pry 45mph.
4. The can stayed on for 5 stops at stop lights, 2 being quite abrupt.
5. The can stayed on for 2 lane changes at 45mph.
6. The can stayed on for a 90 degree turn at 30-35mph.
This was quite a can, I wonder if they drank whatever was left when they got to their destination.
Also, if the SUV would have gotten pulled over, would the driver had been charged with open container? HMMM, who knows.
Song of the day is a drinking song, not b/c I want to drink or b/c I am/have drank today, just b/c of that damn beer can.

Workers
So, after a LONG day at work, I began to think of all the interesting people that I have worked with since I started working for this company a year ago. I thought I would give you all an idea of what I put up with daily. Each number will represent a different person.
1. Worked there for 2 years. Changed managers and new manager didn't like #1, she would do anything to get rid of him. He was funny as hell and I loved working with him. He wrote a note that said, "Sprayed for bugs and pooped in the cooler." Obviously a joke and funny as hell, but new manager didn't think so and that was the end of him.
2. This person had been working there for a while when I changed stores. This person knew lots of the customers and I guess she was giving "special" prices for "special" people. This was soon discovered and that was the end of her.
3. Great worker, had a wonderful but dry sense of humor. Always brightened my day. Called one day and said he couldn't work there any more. Not sure why and I sure miss him.
4. Liked to try to call in during snow storms even though the rest of us had to come in. Wasn't paying attention when using slicer and ended up getting 5 stitches and leaving me by my lonesome for a while. Called in to say she would be late one day, but never showed up...poof, gone, who knows where.
5. Assistant manager before myself. I usually told her what she needed to be doing. Never worked more than her assigned hours even if we needed her to. Got mad, didn't show up one morning to open with me, called and called and called. Never answered. Called for "backup"...apparantly she just left her "I quit" note in the mail box so I didn't find it until "backup" got here. Thanx for being mature.
6. Never listened to directions. Asked questions like "how much meat goes on a quarter pound sandwich?" about 50 times in the month that she worked there. Took many breaks. Didn't do things right. If she didn't get 12 hours of sleep she was worthless. One day she was being worthless so I came in, boss told her to go home and get some sleep (only an hour early) and see you tomorrow. She never showed up again (we still have her avon order...ha ha ha ha ha).
7. Hired him and told him schedule would be done in 2 days, he needed to call back and get it. Also told him that he would be starting the day after orientation and told him when he had orientation. Didnt' show up the first day he was supposed to work. Called him and asked if he wanted to come in later that day. Said ok, showed up for about 3 hours then was sent home b/c they were sick of him asking when he could go home. Came in 10 minutes late the next morning, asked when he could go on break about 5 times, took him 3 hours to do a 1 hour job. He went on "break...which is 15minutes" didnt' show back up for an hour and a half. Then he didnt' show up friday or saturday when he was scheduled...therefore he was kicked to the curb. The best part is that tonight he had that audasity (sp?) to come in and ask when he worked next. Told him he wasn't on the schedule. "why not??" Uh, b/c you haven't shown up for the last two days you were supposed to work! "Oh, I thought I had three days off before I worked next." Nope you aren't going to get that many days off in a row after your first day. "Oh, well, you can tell barb that I am working at kawasaki" Whatever, we already replaced you. "Oh you did?" YEP. "When do I get paid?" You will get your $10 pay check 2 weeks from today. Bye
8. Been having problems with this one for a while. Won't clean coffee pots, windows, scales, put trashbags in trash cans. Been warned many a times. Finally, last night he didnt' do it again, so we just threw all the trash in there without a trash bag. He came to work...mad about his paycheck already and the fact that we wouldn't let him call in sick an hour before his shift. Told him that he had to come or find someone to work for him. Wanted me to work for him, but I could only do it if he worked my shift tomorrow, so I would have worked all of today and him all of tomorrow but he said Fuck that. So he came in all pissed and "sick" saw the trash can and walked out. No big loss I guess, already found someone else and will start training her this week maybe we will have people who do their jobs now.
So the song of the day is...Take this job and shove it...b/c after working from 7-3 the going back from 630-930 and having to deal with a fellow co-worker wanting me to make him a special fuckin sandwich b/c he doesn't want the sandwiches we already have made...he doesn't like "cheese". Hey fuck stick, take that damn cheese off, fuck I am not your god damn mother...I will not wait on you hand and foot so take that piece of cheese and shove it up you big annoying ass.
Chorus: TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN’T WORKING’ HERE NO MORE MY WOMAN DONE LEFT AND TOOK ALL OF THE REASONS I WAS WORKING FOR YOU BETTER NOT TRY TO STAND IN MY WAY/ WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN’T WORKING’ HERE NO MORE
I BEEN WORKING IN THIS FACTORY/ PRETTY CLOSE TO 15 YEARS I’VE SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS’ WOMEN/ STANDING IN A POOL OF TEARS I’VE SEEN A LOT OF KINFOLKS DYING/ I HAD A LOT OF BILLS TO PAY LORD, I’D GIVE THE SHIRT RIGHT OFFING’ MY BACK/ IF I HAD THE NERVE TO SAY:
Repeat Chorus
THE FOREMAN IS A REGULAR SOB. AND THE NIGHT BOSS, HE’S A FOOL HE GOT HIMSELF A BRAND NEW FLATTOP HAIRCUT LORD, HE REALLY THINKS THAT’S COOL ONE OF THESE DAYS I’M GONNA BLOW MY TOP AND THERE’S GONNA BE HELL TO PAY I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES WHEN I GET THE NERVE TO SAY
Repeat Chorus

Flash back
I finally got the kind of snow storm that I wanted. I wanted the kind of snow storm that closed school. Yeah I know that I am 21 but I need a break too. Since I have started college 2.5 years ago, this is only the 2nd snow day I have had. This is part of the flashback b/c it reminded me of the days in high school when you woke up, only to learn there was no school. So what did you do? Sleep, sleep sleep...yep that is pretty much what I did. Then I got bored so I decided to go out to wal-mart and stop at mr. goodcents for some food...yum yum. I walked outside to see that my car was completely cover in at least 8 inches of snow...no biggie, wipe it off. Yep that is what I did when we got snow storms back home. Then I realized there was a 3 foot high and 5 foot wide snow drift behind my car thanks to our smart snow plow driver. So, I called to see if Maintance could come help me shovle it. Of course they couldn't b/c they were doing other things I guess. FINE, do you have a shovle and I will do it myself? Oh sure they do. So, I go get the shovle, put up my hood on my coat, grab my gloves and begin my hard work. Now I haven't had to scoop snow in over 2.5 years...man did it suck...but by how sore my arms are...it sure was a great workout. I got pissed everytime that a guy drove by and just waved and I slaved over this big "pile". HELLO, didn't your mom ever teach you to help women? It isn't that I can't do it myself, obviously b/c I got out...but it is the thought. If I would have been back in high school and a mom found out that her son didn't lend a hand, she would have smacked him along the side of the head. Anyway, moving on, I got the pleasure of seeing a 6 car pileup...no one was hurt, I am not that evil to get joy out of that, it is jsut that I am human and I have an interest in things like that. Not in a morbid way. Hell, even 2 cops that were behind me drove by the accident so don't be judging me. Ho hum...so as of right now the song of the day is...irreplaceble by beyonce. Basically, this is because I could survive with or without a man, (not that I am planning on leaving my bf) but if he f*cks up, I can live without him and move on...I am a decent looking girl with a good personality, I know that I could find someone else...so keep that in mind.

Work...(trolls)
First, I am going to complain about the drivers in lincoln. We live in a city...if the speed limit is 40mph...please go at least 40. I am not asking you to speed, I don't speed b/c I am a cop magnet and see an average of 4 a day in about a total of an 8 mile drive. Just go the damn speed limit. And if you decide not to go the speed limit...stay in the damn right lane so those of us who do have places to go and people to see on a deadline...can drive in the left lane and speed limit. I am from a small town where if there is a slow "grandpa" driving on the road you can take a 1 block detour and be back on track or just go around them in the wrong lane...no biggy. However, you can't take just a 1 block detour in lincoln...it is an extra 10 minutes...and going into the other lane isn't real safe or easy either b/c of the median. So...it is simple...drive as though you are not the only one on the road.
Second, thanks to my loving parents...they thought it would be fun and "entertaining" for them to name me NOELLE. Now don't get me wrong, I have grown to love my name. I like that fact that it is pretty and original, not like a lot of other people's. Many people think of "The First Noel" song as soon as they see or hear my name. Then they usually break into song...and oh, let me tell you...it is always amazing...HA! I am used to hearing this song sang to me during the holidays or some snide comment referring to my name and x-mas. Not a big deal, after 21 years, I just giggle and move on. But today...one day before March...a guy comes in, I help him, then he must comment, "Oh, so you must be the girl that they named that song after huh?". Ok, first...it is almost MARCH. Second, I wasn't even a thought when that song was put together. Third, do you really think you are the first person to make some comment about my damn name...don't act so proud of your observation. If your name is BOB I don't say, "Oh, so you must be the guy they named that CAT after." I have been listening to the same thing for 21 years...please spare me if it is not holiday time...thank you.
Finally, a short troll encounter for my AFL.
T: Is that goulash?
N: Yep.
T: Is it spicy?
N: No.
T: Is that ragu(sp?) sauce on it?
N: Sure.
T: We will take $0.80 of mac and cheese.
N: Ok, it is $0.75 is that ok?
T: Yeah, I suppose that will do.
T: So, that is goulash?
N: YES!
T: And you said it isn't real spicy.
N: No, it is not spicy.
T: Well, I think it is going to be too spicy...Okay?
N: K, bye.
*thinking: how the hell can you tell it is too spicy by looking at it? And what makes you think that I give a flying F*ck if it is too spicy for you...I dont' want to sell you 23 and a half cents worth anyway...get the hell out.*
And for the song of the day...it is a Dixie Chicks song...not b/c I like them b/c I really don't, but this song was part of a big staged breakup that was put on youtube and then made it to TV stations. So here it is.
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
I’m through with doubt
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a price
And I’ll keep paying
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
Forgive, sounds good

‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

Revenge...not mine!
Today...while watching Dr. Phil...my entertainment of the day, there was a woman who had apparently had a horrible break up. Her ex had broke her heart and she wanted revenge. So, she went to his house and destroyed everything. When he came home, he had his locks changed so she wouldn't have the right key. When she came back to do more damage...she found that she couldn't get in. Her next step...if she can't get in, neither should he, therefore, she put glue in his locks so he couldn't unlock the door. All of this gave her an idea to start a website where women can get together and read ideas for revenge. Here are a few that I remember.
1. Boil his clothes so that they shrink.
2. Have someone else on the site call your man and have her insult him while you listen.
3. Pregnancy scares.
4. STD scares.
5. Cut off all the plugs on his electrical items.
6. Pretend to be a girl he met at a club and see if he would cheat on you with this "make believe" girl.
7. Place his picture on the website so other women will be warned.
8. Write stuff on his clothing in blacklight pens so they only show up in black lights.
The list goes on and on...if you want to go to this site here it is http://www.makehimpay.net/
*One woman was so mad that when her ex was sleeping she glued his penis to his stomach, his testicles to his legs and his buttcheeks together. Now if you ask me this is a little extreme and the court agreed...she recieved 6 mouths of probation for assult.
We have all had ex's that have pissed us off, but would you ever take it this far? Oh, and just so you know, the woman who started this website b/c of her horrible ex to whom she destroyed his place, she is now back with him. Oh how ironic things can be. Which brings me to the song of the day.
Ironic by Alanis Morissette
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
1. Boil his clothes so that they shrink.

What I say on TV
Well, yesterday, I was watching some talk show...can't remember which one, but that isn't important. It was about a woman who was extremely bulimic and hadn't seen her kids in over 12 years or so. Now, I know people who have eating disorders and I know all the background about this problem b/c of all the research I did for speeches in high school about it. Thanx to my high school math teacher...some used to think that I also had this problem. Well excuse me for not wanting to eat the food that the serve at school, but if you ever asked my parents, I can eat more than 2 grown men so shut the hell up. Anyway, that is not the point. This woman would go out with layers of clothing on in order to look like she was average sized. She would eat enough food that she would gain AT LEAST 12 pounds per setting...AT LEAST. That would then cause her to burb until she could finally find somewhere to purge. She actually weighed about 70 pounds. Because of everything that she was doing to her body, she ended up losing all her teeth, and the dentures wouldn't stay in...so she found her own way of keeping them in place. SHE WOULD HOT GLUE THEM TO HER GUMS...OUCH. It just went on and on. The thing that I don't understand is how she could give up her 7 and 9 year old children for this disorder...then not talk to the in any way for 12 years. The oldest thought that she was dead and documented it like that on his military papers. The daughter, had gotten married and had a baby and the mother knew nothing about it. I was just in AWWW. Anyway, that is my outburst of confusion for "yesterday" actually.
And Monday's song of the day was: The theme to Scooby Doo. Thanx to my mother and my younger sister I can almost guarantee that I have seen EVER episode at least 11 times. The days that there were marithons were HELL. So, here it goes. And have yourself a scooby-snack.
Scooby-Dooby-Doo, Where Are You?We got some work to do now.Scooby-Dooby-Doo, Where Are You?We need some help from you now.Come on Scooby-Doo, I see youpretending you got a sliverBut you're not fooling me'cause I can see, the way you shake and shiver.You know we got a mystery to solveSo Scooby-Doo be ready for your act[Scooby-Doo] Uh-uh Uh-uhDon't hold back!And Scooby-Doo if you come through you;re going to have yourself a Scooby Snack!That's a fact!Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are youYou're ready and you're willingIf we can count on youScooby-Doo, I know you;ll catch that villian.

The night the lights went out...In Lincoln?
As you all well know...yesterday was a stormy day all over in nebraska. Lincoln however, didn't get the blizzard stuff b/c out snow was too damn heavy. It stood 3 inches off the power lines and even higher on everything else. Anyway, I went to be thinking nothing of it, knowing that I had set my alarm and hoping for a great night of sleep to prepare me for work. My sleep was amazing...I had a dream that I was in high school putting on a pep-rally as a cheerleader...but it was located in the Russ's Market bakery...who knows. Suddenly I was awakened by a weird ringing sound. Thinking to myself, that isn't my alarm. Then I heard it again. SHIT MY PHONE...THAT MEANS I AM LATE FOR WORK...SONOFABITCH!
N: What time is it?
Amanda: 7:07
N: Shit, (looks at alarm only to see it flashing 4:02) I think we lost electricity last night...sorry I am going to be late.
A: Ok, well I am running late too.
N: Ok, see you in a bit.
(Calling the store to tell them the deli workers will be late)
N: Brian, Amanda is running behind and my electricity went out last night so I had no alarm, I will be in as soon as possible.
B: Your electricity went out? Hmm, oh, a power line must have broke.
N: (thinking: no shit, I know what causes power outages) yeah, be there soon.
B: Take your time, we are slow.
I arrive about 30 minutes later.
B: Here already, holy crap you are fast...did you call me while you were showering?
N: Well, since my hair is dry that is a sure sign that I didn't shower before work, I never do. I shower after work to get the smell of chicken off me.
B: Oh.
Later Barb comes in and I tell her why I was late. She said, yeah, I woke up at 3:30 and noticed the power had gone out...thought about calling you but didn't want you to get mad. Next time...CALL, I HATE being late, b/c then we get behind and I get cranky. Anyway, that is all for the whole work thing. But it has been over 3 years since I have lost power b/c of winter weather...it was kinda exciting.
Now, I have also decided today that I am going post a "Song of the Day" each day. This will be a song that for some reason I cannot get out of my head.
Todays song is the theme to FRESH PRINCE. It goes like this...if you didnt' know.
Now... this is a story all about how
my life got flipped, turned upside down,
and I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air
In... West Philidelphia born and raised
on the playground is where I spent most of my days,
chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
and all shooting some b-ball outside the school
When a couple of guys said "we're up to no good"
started making trouble in my neighborhood,
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
she said "you're movin' with your uncle and auntie in Bel-Air"
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
the license plate said "fresh" and had dice in the mirror,
if anything I could say this cab was rare
but I though now forget it, yo home to Bel-Air
I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
and I yelled to the cabby "yo home, smell ya later,"
I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
to settle my throne as the prince of Bel-Air
Not sure why but every time I thought about cold (chillin maybe) or relax...this song popped into my head...no matter what song I was currently listening too.
N: What time is it?
Amanda: 7:07
N: Shit, (looks at alarm only to see it flashing 4:02) I think we lost electricity last night...sorry I am going to be late.
