*takes Micro to her lair*

Yaya!!!! I have been waiting for this day *grins evily* Your mine missy!!! MINE!

*ahem* I was thinking back to a time when I worked (been off work for like, 3 weeks now? or maybe 2? I can't remember. But I remembered how stupid customers can be. Read on, or skip if my posts are in fact, indeed. Stupid and pointless. (which they sometimes are )


"How much is this Euphoria for Men set?"
*I look at the price sign sitting on the Euphoria set*
"It is 69.95, ma'am."
*Customer looks at sign*
*Looks at me*
*Says something in a foreign language to her husband*
"And what percentage off is it?"
*I look at sign again...in front of her*
"20%, ma'am."
*Looks confused, speaks crazy talk to her husband*
"But this box is scuffed here. See?"
*I look*
"Ma'am, that scruff on the box is underneath. We didn't do that, that happened during manufacturing."
"Can't you give us more of a discount on it?"
"No, ma'am. We can't. That default is not our fault."
*She points to another scratch*
"No, ma'am. Not that either. Do you want the Euphoria set?"
*Talks non-English*
"No. We don't want."
*I Force a smile*
"Okay then. Have a nice evening."

Gahhhhh! God-bloody-damn everybody! You crazy, greedy, filthy people! A swarm of midgets upon all of you!

Ontop of this- I don't even work in Cosmetics!!! Stupidness.

Time... Off...?
What is this off time you speak of?

Reminds me of the time thisone lady decided to order over $50 worth of food...at the movie theater. She'd obviously rehearsed what she wanted to say, and spat it out lightning fast. It was my second day on the register (having avoided it like the plague) and was unsure as to where all the buttons were still. I asked her to slow down and she flipped out. Of course, she ordered hot dogs, and I had the unpleasant task of informing her that they weren't ready. She spent several minutes commenting on the "terrible service" she always got at this theater and how she was never coming back, and then proceeded to order more food. Oh, and we had this combo deal. 2 large popcorns and a large drink gets you a free candy. So she ordered like 10 popcorns, and 5 drinks, but never asked for the combo. So I entered it in as separate orders, rather than as a combo, which you're supposed to do separately. I finally got all her stuff together and forgot her candy. She made a nasty comment about it and rather than fix everything I just gave her the candy. Of course, I was in tears by this point, not being used to dealing with people at all, and being somewhat panicky in nature. Not a single person would help me either, so I had to get this ladies massive order myself. Of course, the bags of popcorn weren't full enough, or there wasn't enough cheese on the nachos. Fortunately my manager was sympathetic, and let me take some time to compose myself. Didn't get mad at me about the combo thing either, even though I easily could have.

I have since learned how to deal with bitchy people.

*huggums* I feel your pain -_- I really do. I have oh-too-much experience with customers. Bedamned them. And it's even worse in a funeral home!

 

[RavenousRae]

i'm giving up on guys.. fuck them and how I let them play with my emotions. I'm going to become a lesbian.... maybe I'll have better luck.....

ok.. feeling better now. G'night everyone

Maybe look for a very feminine man? Don't give up. There are a lot of stupid horrible men out there but aren't they just supposed to make us appreciate the good ones we find.

iI have since learned how to deal with bitchy people.

You have to learn to let things roll off of you when dealing with "people," it's hard when you're a sensitive/empathetic person. But at least you learned, so many people don't.

*hands her Chronie* He's got pretty hair and could pass as a girly type of guy He's slim enough and he's even got pretty blue eyes!!!! Just as long as you don't skin me >.<"

I prefer the term sensitive.

This is true. I kinda had to since I'm going to be a teacher. Although, kids are much easier to deal with than adults.

Ok sensitive

And I think some people would disagree with you about that last line. Everyone deals with people and different personalities differently. I think I deal with children and people over 40 easier than people my own age. I have to try hard to connect with people my own age generally, except for a handful of good friends.

I agree with you Rae-Chan. I find dealing with people either older or younger than my age alot more easier. I find the innocence of children brings out the niceness in one's self, whereas, older people are wiser, and fill your thoughts with knowledge. People our own age are stuck in the mindset of their age, therefore competing with one another for popularity and wisdom. Think about it. If you were the same age as say, that child. You would be in the mindset of that child. You would be wishing you could be in the mindset of you- as now. It's a impossibility to win. Not meaning you cannot win at all though.

Well, that's kinda what I mean, although I said it in a very general sense. I think you'll always find people in any age group that are difficult to deal with. I don't think I could limit it to just one age group.

 

[SexyCleric]

You would be in the mindset of that child

What do you mean 'would be'?

okay okay...so this rule is exceptional to Clerky..and possibly others in the Nerd Thread, considering we are just older, silly kids in adult bodies...

Damn right.
So many people lose their child's sense of wonder.

How does gravity work?
What's out among the stars?
How can we get there?

Without a 'grown up' cynical perspective, anything is possible.

Or, I've been reading too much Asimov.
Whichever.

Good night nerds.

Hence why I posted the link to Life as seen by Cynical (a perspective of course). One must wonder why we lose grip with our child-like reality. Prehaps that is the key to eternal happiness? Maybe we need to adapt these 4 stages of our lives in order to obtain eternal happiness. *Sigh* Anyone know anyone who's gotten that far ahead yet? I shall continue seeing my life in such a colourful, artistic way. Like Einstein, I believe that my Optic Chiasm is slightly larger than any other part of my brain (although with Einstein, it was the oppisite). Hence, why I see life in such a artistic, visual way. It's kind of hard to explain what I see. It's odd, you might think it's strange, but it's the honest truth. I see colours so vibrantly, so much that I can take, for example- the can of coke in front of Chronie's computer and simply see it in a 3-D, or even a 2-D cartoon-like persective. It's cool, yet frightening at the same time because it's all that I can see. I wish that i could be more logical, more of a problem-solver, or even a better writer. There are days that I can write in a novel-like performance. However, That part of me is very very rare. Heh. Even me, writing this much in a thread is extremely rare. This is probably the one and only time you will see so much text from this little nerd kitty. I apologize for any spelling grammer, or mistakes. It's been a long time. I sometimes wish that I can act somewhat my age, but that varies. Prehaps I am bi-polar in a way? One moment, I can be hyper, excited, a tad annoying. The next, quiet, mature, complex. I can never figure myself out. I am lost within my own mind, that sometimes all i can do is sit down, and draw. Just draw. I cannot speak what is on my mind, type to another about what is on my mind or even think what is on my mind. No. I can only draw, and even so. Half the time, I draw things that are not even related to my mind's thoughts. I am rambling, sorry. I shall stop, pick my nose and look to the distant sky, blow it a kiss, and Thank the higher above that I am alive, am In love, and as happy as one kitty can be. But then I think of all the things that I have gone through in my life. These treasured memories that will last a lifetime. I have seen so many screwed up things in my 21 years of existance, it's somewhat terrifying. I am afraid of what I have seen. I bottle things up and pretend everything's okay. Prehaps this is one's self-denial. A part of growing up. Erasing your past to move on to bigger, better things. We are taught to go on with your life- leave the past behind you. Don't look back. Now what if you did, what if there was no controlling your mind. Would you want to enter that dark abyss that is forsaken? I wouldn't I would not dare for I know it's a scary, dark, promiscious place. I am scared, like a child. A child. A child is where we draw the line to adulthood. The next stage of life. Which brings me back to where I have originally started this post. Life's a vicious circle of thoughts, dreams and ambitions. It's a losing win, a winning gain, whatever you want it to be. Your thoughts are precious, be who you wish to be, do not be fake, be true. Be You.

'And lo, while I wander the maze of self, pray I do not become lost.'

Please note that I am a Satanist >.<" I wanted to continue my mindless rants, considering that lately I have had alot on my mind @_@ Just ignore this, it's nothing really important lol.

There is no way of knowing what the future holds. I stand here and wait for it to happen. Feeling the presence of misery and immortality at my hands. Love it or leave it, I must obey. The sentiment is at ease for now. Tomorrow is another day. Then in that day, that hour, the sentiment will instil yet another feeling. Unknown to me now, I wait and see. My past brings me no light upon the future, but the present? Perhaps my past, at the correct time, becomes a present factor. In time the cosmic factors shape themselves to form a perfect circle around my ora. Within my state of mind a relaxed feeling comes over me. The wheels of confusion bend at the knees.

Silence is a strain on my most precious feelings. I wonder in a land of fairytales and stories. The illusion of reality, deafening as it may be, must be the last cosmic factor. Their alignment is the key to my happiness. I hear a cry from behind me. A plea from my own soul. Save yourself and let your light shine. My own soul speaks to me as if He (as in the one I believe in) where right beside me. My soul, my God; one in the same. Put them together and those cosmic factors are matched. Placed infront of me; I gladly take them. Yet, I submiss into a state of confusion. Where am I going? Where does this lead? These questions come about only to give way to more confusion. The future may be bright, but all I see is confusion. I deny myself the freedom to live for the now, so perhaps I can catch just a small glimpse of the future. A mistake I make all too often.

Tomorrow is another day. Fuck tomorrow, live for today. You could die tomorrow. That's the way life should be. Live one day at a time. My future has no boundries, it has no plans, it has no blue prints. When one day passes, another future begins. So I am leaving tomorrow, for today. It's a dark day right now. I think I will take a walk when I wake up. Listen to the sounds of nature. They do not wait for tomorrow. Nature sees no tomorrow. Nature sees only of the present. Nature is a healer, I can feel it's presence. It tells me what I am doing wrong, then puts a smile on my face. Yes, I can truly say I love nature. So I will go for a walk today and find out just what I am doing wrong. Prehaps Chronie would like to come with. But I will walk. I will excercise the mind and body. I am my own Messiah.

The cosmic factors will be in place, nature will be right there with me and my questions will be answered. Looking upon the future brings no relief. Living in the past only brings pain and sorrow. Living in the present; now that's where the good times lie. I have all I want when I am at piece with this world. Too few times does this happen. Rejoice on those times, but don't let them hold you down. They can get the best of me. When I am unblanced I become depressed. Unsure of where to go next; what steps to take and where they will lead me. It gets very confusing. Today I can feel the cosmic factors aligning themselves for me. I feel the power of nature. It is coming to see how I am doing. Nature likes to do that every now and then. Just to keep me on my feet. When it does, I calmly except the hand.

Very few things can give me a helping hand like nature can. I think I know what I am doing, but then things just don't seem to go my way. In these times I can get very depressed. Nature does not like to see me this way, but will not step in and help me out. No, I must help myself out in these situations. Once I have accomplised that, then nature steps in. Nature can raise me to new levels of conscious I have never seen before. To much pressure, to much time. This can be my mantra, my manifesto if you will. Nature releases my pressure. To often do I look outside myself to release pressure and stress in my life. When in actuality the strees and pressures of my life are only caused by one being. The supreme being. I cause my pressures, I cause my stress; in the same way I cause my happiness, my sorrows, and my pain. I have taken a likeness to my feelings. They give me meaning. They give me foundation. They can also give my great sorrow and even greater pain.

I am unsure of what to think about all this. The pain and sorrow I feel are but mere feelings. Nothing can hurt me more then myself. With nature at my side I can concure almost anything. Nature has that mystic power. It's her key. I at times have a mystic power about me. I like to call upon it. Wouldn't you? The mystic power is very hard to describe. It starts with a feeling, a powerful feeling. Then within the blink of an eye things and situations in your life seem to come together. For a moment everything makes sense. I would rather not know what is behind this mystic power. Rather let it be and watch it work. I believe in myself because nothing else is true. Realities are very different from one person to the next. People try to express themselves to me and I cannot help, but get bored. Their nature is not like mine. They do not see what I see, they do not feel what I feel.

However, I wish to see what they see, I wish to feel what they feel. That is genius. Even moreso than Stephen Hawking, heck! Even Einstein. You can feel what you feel and see what you see, but to feel another? Can one person truly feel the pain of another. Phsyical or mental, it makes no difference. To feel anothers mental anguish, would to become God like. A immortal.Humanity would not allow it. Sure humanity says they feel for another, but do they truly feel for another? Humanity is a two-fold concept. On one hand it has good values, on the other it covers them up with lies and self-deciet. The only human that can feel me, is myself. So when someone says, 'I am like you.' I can not help, but question their divine theory of likeness. People are like pawns in the presence of nature. Humanity is the watershed that tryes to proclaim likeness to nature.

On the day of judgement, when your belief calls, who will win? Humanity vs. Nature? I have my bet on nature. Humanity does not have the strength that nature does. In fact it doesn't even compare. Humanity, when viewed through the eyes of nature is just a spec of dirt. Humanity; proclaim you are great, proclaim you are strong and rich, full of wonderful imagination. Stand tall humanity, while I watch you be crushed with just one blow. My nature has won another battle. Wow. I'm bored. I guess all that I am really trying to say is be true to yourselves. Be you.

Heh, I've had numerous teachers try to explain it to me, I've seen visual aids, I've even seen a thing on Discovery channel with Stephen Hawking talking about it. I still don't grok how gravity works, except that it does, which is kind of neat, honestly.

He stands on the shoulders of giants.

Good guy though, and when you find him, remind him that he stills owes me $30.

 

[Spins]

Actually he admitted that he has been wrong for some 30+ years not too long ago.

Just sayin'

I wouldn't say he's wrong per say, as he typically deals with a level of physics that is unheard of.

Theories built upon theories, and all based upon particles that may or may not exist...

To say that's he's wrong is to say that the weather forecast for two weeks from now is wrong.

I'm too lazy to go get the transcipt of his speech, but he did in fact say, "I was wrong."

So there!

Stephen was simply wrong because he was wearing his non-thinking socks that day, and everyday before that 30+ years ago. Now that he's got some thinking socks, he can be right and save the day!

Heh, this reminds me of one of my favorite Stephen Hawking quotes: "Whenever I hear of Schrödinger's cat, I reach for my pistol."
