Bigger and Better... (Combo Post)

I am finding over time, that as the customers I deal with scramble to reach new lows, it is hard to come up with new things to write about. My last post is a pretty big topper at the moment, so it makes telling stories about new customers doing the same old stupid things kind of dull. But there will always be a bigger and better story to come along, fear not little ones :)

I thought about where to post this next tidbit for a little while... Its hard to classify it, but since it affect both my personal and working life a great deal, I will post it both on this blog as well as "Children of the Damned". Enjoy...

So I was almost fired a few days ago. Suprisingly, it had nothing to do with a customer. Oh and by the way if you happen to work with me, do NOT bring this up while you are there... thank you :)

Those of you who know me, know that I can be quite sarcastic at times... I like to try to be funny and I guess I am just not always good at it (I know Dennis!). So this one girl I work with is having apparently a bad day. She starts telling me how grumpy she is and how she doesnt want to be there. So I ask her why she doesn't quit then. She said something about money... I dont know exactly... wish I could remember word for word. Bottom line though was, she said "...I work hard for my money." And with a meaning of implicating that she doesnt work hard, I said "Where on the streets? You must not make very much"

I thought it was funny at the time... and if you know I am joking I think most people would laugh. Unfortunatly sarcasim can be evil and if someone decides to, they can get you in BIG SHIT. I am currently suspended from work with no pay for a couple days. That may not sound like much, but its a large chunk of money!

I hindsight, I REALLY need to learn to keep my big mouth shut. And I am done with sarcasim at work... I hope I dont explode from keeping it all in.
