I'm not desperate for the money or anything, but TeePublic is having a sale over the weekend if you want some Serving Times gear for $16: www.teepublic.com/user/theserv...

A blue shirt depicting a Monopoly-like board game being flipped, the money, dice, and houses flying everywhere. The caption says "Fuck this game!" although the "fuck" is obscured by some of the game debris.

A purple tee shirt that reads "I'm having a mental health day. Okay, now fuck off!"

A red shirt with a picture of a pallet jack and the words "Jackin' It!"

I don't know, I can't imagine that if I believed that stuff while calf-deep in the grave that I wouldn't be doing more to try to earn a spot in The Good Place.

They also said, about a 50 watt bulb (50 watts being the power requirement, not the brightness) that it was actually 150 watts because it said "50 watts x3". I then had to explain that the "x3" referred to that there were three bulbs in the pack.

These people drove here today.

"Sally Stinkins of The Craplantic" does have a nice ring to it.

Definitely sarcastic. This lady thought we only had clearance markdowns in place so we'd have prices to raise next week for the tariffs.

[Customer looking for a particular size lightbulb. One is half off.]

"Why is this one discounted?"

"It's overstocked, we need to sell through them to fit new stock."

"No, it's probably so they can raise the price back up next week when the tariffs go into effect."

Uh, wut?

Yeah, I got that one almost immediately. Getting yelled at by white boomers in someone else's department and when I called for backup the manager was just like "I'unno, [name] is down there somewhere I think".

Reminds me of my favorite reply of all time:

Scott Castaneda @scott_castane.... @tmorello I use to be a fan until your political opinions come out. Music is my sanctuary and the last thing I want to hear is political bs when i'm listening to music. As far as i'm concerned you and Pink are completely done. Keep running your mouth and ruining your fan base.

"We don't eat no pussy in Muskogee/
A man's mouth's only good for eatin' steak!
That and telling certain folks what their place is/
and shouting out the glory of our race!"

Muskogee sounds like a real shit place to live.
