While stuffing my face with canned ravioli it dawned on me that I didn't mention why I wanted to throttle my friend. Not a nice thing to say about a friend. Damn, I had said kill in my previous post not throttle. Im an ass, heres why my undies were and still a bit in a bunch.....
The heat and humidity were sweltering today. Not a good day for man or beast. I get to work and my friend/coworker/boss/fartface hands me a project. He really enjoyed handing it off to me, most likely a payback from yesterday. My feelings are as such, since I'm not the manager I don't do manager things such as return phonecalls concerning sensitive matters. Case closed. He took great delight in giving me this task, more like pawned it off on me. Changing the sign. Son of a bitch, change the sign today in this heat? Yeppers, change the friggin sign. This is a sign that requires a ladder to reach it. Son of a bitch I pull out the ladder get the damn plastic letters and tromp outside. As I had stated earlier it was so hot I was sweating like a whore in church. I was too short to reach the sign, wasn't going to happen. I take the ladder down tromp back inside, no go aint going to happen. Which didn't bother me one bit. i felt vindicated, take that friend. Funny thing about vindication its like karma it will bite you on the ass every time. Boy did i ever get a chunk bitten out of my ass. Some time passes I guess I was being to smug I told a coworker about my ordeal. Heres where karma bit me the first time "Did you use the extender bar"? "Extender bar? what are you talking about"? Son of a bitch, Im guessing the pole is 12 feet long, just a guess with pinchers on one end and a rope you pull from the bottom to use the pinchers to grab. Shit looks like I'm changing the sign after all.
The sign is supposed to read HELP WANTED SALES & SERVICE.....
Well...the word help was easy once I got the hang of the pincher pole thingy W_A_ was not so hard. That damn N about did me in. The bastard kept falling, I was close to having a temper tantrum. Good thing I kept my head about me, i don't want to find myself on youtube for making an ass of myself. Anyway the reason the damn N kept falling off is that I had the sucker upside down. The letters have slots that fit over grooves in the sign. Finally I got the damn N up there, T was a bit tricky, then the inevitable happened the damn pincher broke. I fixed it did some cussing and wished diarreah for a month of Sundays to YOU KNOW WHO.....
The sign for awhile looked like this....HELP WANTE....
To top it off the letters looked cattiwampus. Finally I got the D up there and the damn pole broke again. I just love well functioning equipment as much as I like sweat pouring into my eyes, good times. I had had enough karma and went inside. I gave one of the owners my shpeel. What I want to know is why do people laugh when I'm pissed off?
Needless to say the sign isn't finished, I have proved to be incapable of doing such tasks. I'm short,at times ill tempered and am going through menopaus. Nice combination huh?
I think karma needs to make a visit to a cetain fartface. What am I saying? I should just learn to leave well enough alone. Patience Sandy patience...

I am like dying laughing at this. I hate those stupid poles and those freaking letters. People laugh and you when you pissed because if you talk the way you write & I bet you do you are fucking hilarous.
And there popped up that phrase again "sweating like a whore in church." to funny.

Faith those signs suck. No two ways about it, they suck rocks.
I do my best to keep people in my surroundings happy. I need to be taped someday throwing a fit, I need to see what others do.

My stepdad is the manager of a 7-11 in FL. I don't know if they have those in PA. Its like a convienent store. He was outside one day and forgot his belt. Needless to say everyone going down Dale Mabry that day got mooned. People were honking & of course I was inside the store laughing my ass off.

I cannot believe your boss/friend/manager sent you out there for that task!! I don't mean to sound like a male chauvenist (sp?) but a guy should've done that sort of physical labor, especially in that heat. What a jerk!!
