YOUR QUOTATION OF THE DAY:

"Chance favors the prepared mind."

--Louis Pasteur
 
I'm a little pissed off just after grocery shopping.....no cashiers, only those damn self checkout machines. They don't pay me to do all that work that a cashier normally does, take my stuff out of the cart, ring it up, bag it, and put it in the cart......it wasn't that long ago that they even had someone who would push the cart out to my car and put them in the car for me! Now I have to do all that work by myself, without pay, and without a discount on my grocery bill.

On top of that, they charge me for those sh*tty paper bags that rip if there there is anything heavier than a bag of chips in it! Paper bags used to be tough, and reuseable on their own! You could crinkle them up, then open them again to use again, 2 or 3 times, and then they were still good for making book covers and chilren's costumes, and they STILL never ripped! They were free! Now they charge you 10 cents for something that can't carry a stick of deodorant without ripping!

The damned store can't afford to pay even ONE cashier to ring up and bag my groceries, but they can afford to pay someone to stand at the door and accuse me of being a thief!!!!

"Can I see you're receipt?" as she sticks her nose over my groceries....

NO! F*ck You! Do you have a warrant? Let me see the warrant.

Once I pay for these groceries, they are my personal, private property. The store no longer has any claim whatsoever to search them or inspect them or touch them! Show me a warrant, MF'rs!

If you suspect that I am a thief, then how about you pay someone to ring up and bag my groceries instead of paying someone to accuse me of theft! GFY! And while you're at it, get a warrant!

:mad: :mad: :mad:
 
costco has gotten more crazy...they check your member id when you come in. if you use the self checkout,they check it again before you start to check out,then they check your receipt when you leave. and of course,you get no bags.
 
Load 7 of the day of laundry in the washer. Still have three more loads but might not finish it all until tomorrow morning. Washed all three beds bedding then regular laundry.
 
Please. This is it, the great one.

Please listen. Whatever you think of his God, dontPlease. This is it, the great one.

Please listen. Whatever you think of his God, dont, just hear, listen, understand.

To get what you never had, you must do what youve never done.

Be thankful before you have what is rightfully yours.

Make a difference. Always, make a difference., just hear, listen, understand.

“To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did”
Great quote from that video, thanks Locke!
 
My lovely dad is going to pass over soon. I am reflecting on everything he did. Pious and strong. So many lessons instilled, many times begrudgingly. But so right. I am so fortunate.
Thank you dad. You've done great. Rest when you are ready, I love you.
i am so sorry @AnOldTroll . i am glad you appreciate him and that he knows you love him. in the end,that's his wonderful legacy. hugs.
 
eerily quiet here. No birds chirping . nada. hmm., feels weird.

I can at least usually hear the cars on the freeway, nothing though.
I can hear the waterfall in my pond though.
this is strange.

I have a baby spider! I hope it sticks around. Not going to name it yet. But thinking something trapeze like. Quite the worker.
