So there I was standing in the checkout line at Target, when all of a sudden the lady, who was a few people ahead of me, had to complain because the three rugs she was wanting to buy rang up at the wrong price. And dumb dumb HAD to ask for two different managers to come over so she could complain. Ain’t nobody got time for that. But I try not to let that kind of stuff get to me, because let’s face it…life’s too short to get pissed off about a long line at a retail store. The bitches in front and behind me, however, must not have the same train of thought as I do, because they were throwing mega temper-tantrums. All I could hear was “This is fucking ridiculous!”…no your attitude is fucking ridiculous, side ponytail wearing ma’am. “Can’t you bring up more cashiers?!?”…can’t you mind your own damn business? “I have somewhere important to be!”…ordering from the McDonalds dollar menu isn’t that important of a place to be..it will still be available when you’re finished here. They all needed to pipe the fuck down. So while the broads moaned and groaned and dumb dumb took over 20 minutes to be told, for the 5th time, that the rugs she picked out were not on sale, I decided to catch up on Ruzzle and Pinterest. Best 20 minutes in line at Target, ever. But when they finally got dumb dumb out of the way and started ringing up everyone else, all the women still had an attitude towards the poor cashier girl! Totally not necessary gals. So when I got up there, I talked and stuff to the cashier girl and was well on my way to becoming her newest BFF. And when I finally paid, all sorts of coupons started coming out with the receipt and I was like “WHAAAT?!” “Raise the roof!” “Big money, big money, no whammy!” “Is this what supermarket sweep feels like?!” Basically, I was saying a lot of stupid shit. But the cashier and people in line behind me laughed and yeah…that my friends, is what I like to call: helping people calm the fuck down in annoying situations.
So remember when you’re in an annoying, unfun, situation: Life’s too short to get upset over something super stupid like that. So what if it takes a cashier a while to ring up customers. So what if it takes a server a few extra minutes to bring you your food. So what if the homeless man rubs his wiener against your…wait, what? The point is, life’s too short to get mad over dumb shit. So take a deep breath, say something stupid to yourself, giggle it off, don’t worry-be happy, and move along.
Annnnd you’re welcome 🙂
