You should be crashed by now with that little sleep and being that old.

Thursdays kinda grind my gears. So close to Friday, yet so far away.

Indeed. And yet since I am now working Tues-Sat instead of Mon-Fri, Friday's will be the new Thursdays for me. I don't know if it's just me but it seems everything is bad on Thursdays. The traffic is worse on Thursdays (almost as bad as Friday afternoon's) people are crankier (me included), and more things go wrong.

Douchy McDouchbag who gets on the elevator to up one floor. Muther****er, are the stairs that much of a bitch?

[Monkeydad]

I always take the stairs, two steps at a time for extra calf work. My office is on the top floor (4 floors).

I also always beat the elevator people upstairs.

So do you get your extra bicep work for all the pats on the back you give yourself on here? Right?

Honestly if we had a coworker here that did what you just described in the stairwells; he/she would be the butt of many jokes. Just picturing someone in business attire doing that makes me laugh.

Here comes Skippy!

Yeah, cos being fit is sooooo lame. /sarc

Does your extra X chromosome make you more bitchy, mred, or is it the humidity?

I'm not even mad.

Who's going to mock me, the lady that looks pregnant for the last 10 years or the one who broke her office chair?

Plus would it not be more of a workout to take every step vs. skipping some?

Nope. More resistance to push up further...feel the calves burn.

Go to a local store for lunch, grab a couple items and immediately head to the quick, "10 items or less" check out...lady in front of me checking out A) has 13 items and B) asks for a f*ckin pen.

A) rules. if it says 10 items, then 10 is the effing max. its a line for people like me, with 3 items who want to grab and go.

B) Who the f*ck writes a effing check anymore? Of course we need to write it out, let the cashier run it and record it in our little register. An addition 2 minutes to my waiting time while im staring at the other line 10 items line breeze right through. Who the f*ck writes a check? Get a effing check card.

2 gears in with one lady, and she wasnt old like 40. god damn it

I called a lady out one time at Wegmans. I was having a wicked day and I had to run in for stuff for dinner. She literally had over 20 items in the 10 or less line; I huffed and puffed. She finally was like to the cashier please take this gentleman first he is obviously upset. I said lady it clear says ten or less don't make me the a$$hole for complaining about you breaking the rules. The cashier was smurking the whole time.

I hate when people try to bend rules and hope now one says anything so they can get away with it.

Paying with check is unbelievable I get that sometimes as well; we need to be done with checks at least in the retail world.

When i'm occasionally asked to write a check for something, i still use my 5 year old temporary checks without my name on them. I never bothered to order any. 5 years later, still paying bills. And occasionally i eat.
