That song can be a bitch to get out of your head.
You got that right.
Well, as you've seen I deal with a lot of s**t. And today is no different. BSA will probably laugh his a** off at this one. I got called over to deal with a problem in the men's restroom. Well, has anyone seen the episode of South Park where the Hardly Boys investigate the mystery of the urinal turd?

Our new electronics lead has proven himself quite, well, stupid, inept, lazy. Pick your adjective. He came on from a Sears and supposedly had electronics experience. Well, during our last major tour we had a regional LP manager visit. He noted that the TV spiderwraps were loose. He later saw me tightening them and explaining how to get them tight to the electronics lead. I think he might have thought I was the electronics lead for a bit. For those of you who are luck enough to never had to work retail, spiderwraps are those wire things around electronics and other high value items.
Now it has been almost a month since that visit. I've had to give him a refresher every Monday and he has made some progress. But today I noticed that one spiderwrap was damaged and a 50 inch TV was missed. After replacing the damaged one I went to wrap the remaining TV. Which lead to a large problem, all the spiderwraps were badly tangled. Naturally I secured the TV and went to LP, explained the situation and see if LP had any that I could use. He told me to check the check outs and pass on the message to get them untangled immediately. He also told me not to assist.
I did as he suggested, found a usable spiderwrap and wrapped the TV. Then passed on the message. This is where things got a little tense. He said he would write a note and get them untangled tomorrow. I told LP said immediately. So he said that if it needed to be done immediately I should do it. I told him I was instructed not to. It's not my department and not my responsibility. Then he started making excuses such as "they were like that when I started" and when I contradicted his claims he started getting defensive. He even made the claim that a 50 inch TV didn't need to be wrapped because no one would try to steal it. I'm gonna ask LP to tell him a little story and show him footage of someone actually trying to steal a 47 inch TV.
The fact is that before he started I was covering both electronics and lawn and garden on top of my extensive work load. And I always made sure the spiderwraps were untangled, in working order and were properly stored. Caring for those things only takes 5 minutes. If I could do it while covering 7 departments he could do it while cover one.

F#cking F#ck....
If there is one thing that annoys me it's people who trade online that expect you to "figure it out". you know the ones. They don't know what they have, what the values are, and DONT EVEN PUT THEIR NAME ON THEIR ENVELOPE OF CARDS!!!
I had 3 cards I know I traded for come in the mail from Ny today, so I should be happy, but I have no effing clue who sent em, if I sent em something yet OR if I even have to send anything at all...since I've traded with AND bought from NY in the last 20 days....so IDK who the f#ck this is...
FOR F#CK SAKE PUT YOUR DAMN NAME ON YOUR OWN SHIT! I don't CARE if it's expected to be 1 way (meaning you got proper postage and win't have issues with customs), I DONT CARE if I bought from you so I won't need to return em since the cash has changed hands AND I DON'T GIVE A FLYING F#CK IF YOU THINK I "DON'T NEED TO KNOW" WHO THE HELL YOUR FAT ASS IS! PUT YOUR MOTHER F@CKING NAME ON YOUR MOTHER F#CKING SHIT WHEN YOU SEND TO ME!!!

Okay, I was having one of those days where some one somewhere obviously didn't want me to punch out and leave. Last 15 minutes I get this customer picking up her grill and I think to myself this should be an easy one. Boy was I wrong. First up the guy who tagged the grill tagged a boxed one instead of an assembled grill that was built specifically for her, so when I bring up the box she tells me that it's the wrong grill. I piece things together and tell her that I'll correct it. No problem, should have only taken a couple of minutes. Wrong. The grill that was built for her was dented and scratched.
So there I am with only 5 minutes left and a big problem. And so I said that I would get one assembled for her (even though we don't do it, an outside assembler does it on Saturdays). I had planned to do all the gas connections and tag out in 10 minutes. But of course the two guys who just got in are not very handy (one was the dips**t who mistagged) so I wound up doing it myself. An hour later I finally punch out and was talking with the customer as they were bring up the grill. That's when I noticed a scratch on the top of the grill. F**king morons. I gave them two tasks. Get the grill up to the service desk and into the car unharmed and clean up the trash. And they f**king scratch the top! I was lucky the customer didn't mind. No way I was going to build a second grill and not get paid for it. And she appreciated that I stayed until it was finished which was also a nice change of pace.
I'm willing to bet those f**k ups forget about the trash.

I'm not sure what way is appropriate to respond, but now you have me curious as to what kind of videos they are to be on YouTube.

People need to stop b**ching every time a new game mechanic gets made.
"I'mma quit when Synchros come out" "I'mma quit when xyz come out" "I'mma quit when Pendulums come out"
IT IS STUPID. Either leave because you aren't having fun anymore, or keep playing and quit whining like a 10 year old kid because you think they are "broken" and don't have the damn brains to adapt. I don't want to hear it.

People who resort to voicing such opinions either:
- Deserve to leave the game because they don't want to adapt and keep enjoying the game - Crying for attention
