I don't see a thread like this already made, so I was thinking we could just discuss random things that happened to us today, as long as they're you know... appropriate.
Anyone want to start?

Well today I learned that a conversation with a woman that starts with "What did you mean by that?" can never end with "Oh, so thats what you mean by that."

Well a few months ago I had gotten into a car accident, and I was required by law to take a driver's ed course. I get there today and the guy in the office who took my information, and also happened to be the class instructor, seemed pretty nice. He walks into the classroom and I swear he became a totally different person. I'm still not sure if it was an act he was putting on or what, but the guy started treating us like we were in a damn military school, calling us criminals and stuff like that. The entire class was a joke, and seemed like some kind of comedic act where the guy purposely tried to humiliate us. Later, he asks me what sport I think he used to play, and I guessed golf, and the guy flips out on me, saying that golf isn't a sport it's a game and blah blah blah. After that, he asks me to guess his age, and I said 70's, and the guy gets all mad and goes 'Do I look that old?!" Ten seconds later, the guy tells us he's 82. This is what I mean when I say that I couldn't tell if the guy was trying to be funny, or was just being a dick to us. Or maybe it was dry humor or something.

Haha that's quite a tale about the crazy old dude flipping out. Yesterday I ran up the stairs and slipped towards the top and fell over. Ouch. I swore. I told myself not to run up stairs. Later on I did exactly the same and slipped and fell over again. I just laughed at myself.

I went with 3 mates to a photography session at a local cemetery.I was dressed as some sort of pimp(had a cane cape and hat) and another friend as a depression era mobster or at least that's what I thought he looked like .One of my other friends was the photographer and the last person is her boyfriend that I've known for 3 years who just watched from as far back as possible. Still don't know what the theme of it was.

Ouch I know how you feel I worked at one of those types of places until i got fed up with my managers.
*warning walls of text *
Especially one who would say "my friend" to start and end a sentence as if that will would make her seem more friendly but just made her sound retarded.That I would have been able to put up with if she hadn't been a harassing bitch who no matter how fast I worked still made snide remarks about me being slow.They had also moved me from cashier at one point not because I was bad at it but because "I lacked personality" according to one of my managers.
It all came to ahead when I was put to make drinks and shakes for more than 20 + people and counting that were showing up for lunch that day .We ended up having to refill our cups in less than a minute and we needed an extra 2 or 3 people to keep up with demand to make drinks and shakes.The ice also ran out and I needed to refill it as well. It started to die down and that's when she called me slow again and then I pointed out how not minutes ago we were slammed and she actually gave me the "talk to hand" since she didn't want to talk about it.
So I called her a bitch and I called it a day.
The End

The End At the last place I worked I had a similar experience, my boss was a drunk and she'd come into work daily either really hungover or still pissed from being up all night (the only reason she didn't get fired is because her boss was a lush as well plus she'd been there for 20+ years), I eneded up always having to do her work as well as mine untill I eventually just quit, oddly it was the best job I ever had.

No but they speak punjabi all the time when asking for stuff and im like "Um, hello!" and they look at you like your stupid I was so close to going "Look mate, you are in New Zealand, speak english or fuck off back to India!" I dont care if they do it at home with friends or anything but its a fucking business.

"Halloween is an evil holiday celebrated only by the wicked" says the religious fanatics with the signs outside of Blockbuster telling us to repent sinners. Now,I just want to say I have nothing against religious people. These types however, just make me mad.

There are no video rental stores up here in NH anymore. Only those Red Box machines which suck. I didn't appreciate it much at the time, but now that it's gone, I miss Blockbuster Video.
