Ok so yesterday I went to Home Depot to order some stuff from the Pro Desk... nada they closed up shop at 6p so I ask if anyone can help me and 2 very nice people that worked there said to go down to special services and I could make my order with them and they would take it to the Pro Desk in the morning. Well the yay-hoo behind the desk at Special Services was a high school kid and par for the course would rather sluff me off and tell me he couldn't do it than try and get it sorted out for me. Why do I tell you this... well it seems to me that our whole country is going down the crapper. I swear if you own a store and could get the help to act like they care, the way it used to be when I was 16 then then you would make a killing! Every time I go to McDonalds or Six Flags or anywhere the person behind the counter seems to be oblivious to the fact that you just stood a 20 minute line even though there was only 2 people in front of you... I watched this girl at Burger King pick up her clipboard and count something under the counter and make a few notes and generaly fart around for about 5 minutes after she had served the guy in front of me. Never making eye contact, acting all along like she just had to get this one thing done and f'it that customers had to wait. It seems like this happens to me everywhere I go, I had a girl singing to me at Waterworld once for the rain to come and so we would all have to go home... when I was 16 and working at the mall I would have been fired over this! Unfortuately this seems to be the way things are now, it seems as if the employers have their hands tied and they are afraid to fire anyone these days.... sad state of affairs.
Someone sent me this link of 2 kids playing Doom 3... seems fake to me but maybe not... funny regardless.
