Grease monkey fun

I forgot that being a cashier can be fun. A guy came into buy boxes and after the price quote he asked if they were lined with gold. I said no, but I fill them to the top with happy thoughts. My co-worker thought I was hilarious at least....

U-Haul rentals are also fun. People are mad as hell when they go to rent a moving van and find the prices outrageous. Renting a UHaul truck for two days is much cheaper than buying a box van or hiring a moving company. Still people expect certain things for free.

Working with the public reaffirms my long-held belief that I hate people. Loud, ignorant, insensitive, selfish, over-bearing people that walk around with a sense of entitlement and a chip on their shoulder. The type of people who walk around, acting like everyone owes them something. They all rent UHauls.

Although the job itself is rather simple, I can see where it would be trying. But not everyone is horrible, I met a very nice older woman that works as a prison guard that had a nail in her tire. Seems kind of odd that she would wear make-up to such a job. Hmmmmmmm.....


On the exercise front, I'm always wanting to try new things to improve my results. The sad part is, I've not really been doing this long enough to notice any real results from anything. I am becoming more aware of my general nutrition. I'm chugging down a lot of water, milk, multivitamins, and protien powder. I'm hoping for the "6-month difference" and the "one-year wow-you're-not-the-same-person pictures". I'm pretty serious, and I'm doing what I know how to do, but I don't know how great my long term results will be.
