I think I will keep the bell for when I get a catgirl of my very own.

I really need to get an office job. A 9-5 sit down job where I don't deal with customers who think they're better than me just cause I work at a gas station.

That sounds like it sucks. I'm normally nice to Gas Station peoples... I know what's it like to be bullied and stuff like that.

S'ok Batty ^_^

Lol stalking is just more difficult with bells.

People are always coming in and acting all pissy about how I won't just turn on the pump so they can get their gas and then come in and pay. Its a city wide thing that all customers are required to prepay for their gas. Either with their card at the pump, or with cash or check inside. They come in and get mad at me then tell me that there should be a sign so that they're not looking like idiots pushing buttons. I'm just like, "You look like an even bigger idiot for not seeing the sign that is already there. Its freaking yellow!"

If it's a city wide ordinance, then they have no reason to get annoyed at you.

Customers are often idiots .

More often than not unfortunately :(

Sorry that you have to deal with people like that. You should go and put up your own signs on all of the pumps that state that they have to prepay.

Exactly! Its not like I'm the one who makes the rules! Same goes with the prices on stuff. Everyone yells at me like its my fault for jacking up the prices when I have absolutely nothing to do with it. All I do is ring it up. You're the idiot coming into a convenience store to buy your candy bars when Walmart has them for 50 cents a piece.

I keep thinking that I will do that. But every time I start thinking about putting dirty names and telling them how dumb they really are and decide to just let it be. I need my job, unfortunately.

Ohh... Don't even get me started on Walmart. What ever you do, don't work there.

No, I'd never work there. But shopping there is easy and at least cheaper than going into a gas station for stuff. I'm really wanting to get an office job or write a great novel and be famous and rich....Just have to actually write it, huh? >.<

the writing part is the hard part. That I know. I'm trying to write a novel... But it's not exactly working as well as I would like.

I've written a few but never tried to get them published. They're not good enough yet.

It seems like every time that I start trying, I get frustrated and quit. Then I lose the inspiration for it and just let it go. I love to write and its really fun for me, but I think I've gotten to the point where its more role playing for me than actually writing a novel.

I had one written out completely and even started contacting publishers who were pretty interested and then for whatever reason, when I sent it to them they could never pull it up and read it. Then I didn't have the money to mail it off to them and let it go...

Wal-Mart used to be a good emplyer. Not anymore, they have gone the same direction every other retail place has gone. It's just terrible what they do to employees nowadays :/

I'm just trying to work on the idea and help devolop the world that the story is going to be in before I will be able to really write the story.

My mom worked for WalMart for years and just last year or so they wanted her to step down from her management position over dairy to being a cashier. Um, no. That's like a slap in the face. She worked hard to get where she was.

Why did they want her to step down?

Supposedly she wasn't working fast enough. The problem wasn't her speed, it was that they kept hiring stupid teenagers to work with her who didn't want to do the work right the first time and she would have to go back over their work as well as do her own. So they wanted her to cashier. She told them no and quit without notice. Not the best idea, but it did mess them up for awhile.

Yeah... A friend of mine's mom was fired when she stayed home to take care of a sick child.

Sounds a hell of a lot like the company I work for right now.

Who are you working for?

Yep, at Wal-Mart they always want you to work more than you possibly could. In my final days there I was getting 10-15 hours a week and being reminded how "important" my job was so I needed to be speedy in my few hours there. Huh, if I'm so important I'm sure you can spare more than 15 hours a week to employ me right..?

I work for "Hub retail" . They're the biggest jerks I've ever had the misfortune to work for.

Yeah. Walmart just doesn't get it... I can only wonder how long they can continue to act like this.

In the current economic climate they can do basically anything they want :(

Well I'd love to rant about Wal-mart a bit more but I think I'll go play some games a while and come back later tonight. Take care Luna and Taiania -hugs for both-

'Hugs' Have fun ^_^

Bye Serra! Have fun!
*turns to Tai* So what does this Hub Retail sell?

Everything and anything. Drinks, sweets, crafts, candles, kitchen stuff, curtains... etc.

And so they are undercutting everyone else around them I guess?

Trying to. I wouldn't mind if they didn't treat their staff as useless zombies.

Hopefully they will eventually fall. Just like I wish for Walmart to fall.

Me too. But I hope I get another job first lol.

Well... You know about how people all over are liking how Walmart treats it's customers and employees less and less.

Yes. I've heard a lot about it.

I don't know what's going to happen, but part of me hopes for a revolution!

I wish someone would hire me. I need to put in more applications soon.

There's been documentaries about it so it's not a secret anymore
