Janitor for the dayCategory: wo rk
My supervisor wanted me to go out with one of the client work crews to their place of employment and actually work side by side with the clients to get a better feel for the work the clients do.
I didn't really feel it was necessary. I'm not sure that I needed to clean toilets and sinks at a warehouse factory with my clients in order to understand it. I've cleaned plenty of toilets at home. I get how it works.
But, I'm a compliant employee and so I went out with the crew that cleans at a warehouse. I spent two hours cleaning sinks, toilets and urinals. I had the lovely experience of scrubbing the urine off the walls around the urinal. Sometimes up to a foot or more away from the urinal. How does that happen? Are they just flicking their stuff around when they pee with no regard to the urinal?
It was also my first experience with Maxims and Penthouses in the workplace. There was a stack of them in the various mens bathrooms. Now, I haven't been in many men's bathrooms, so maybe I'm naive and I don't realize that Maxim and porn is standard fare for mens bathrooms. I always figured that those magazines fell into the category of "Things that are inappropriate to bring to work from home".
All was well at the end though when the young woman I was working with turned to me with a grin and informed that I was a "hard worker".

More gum than can fit in my mouthCategory: gum
If you're at Wegman's on Amherst.
And you're eyeing the candy vending machine.
And you see the fruit shaped gum the size of a fist,
I recommend you have a sound jaw and a strong will to conquer that bad ass piece of gum.

anybody who wants to see said piece of gum can come by our house, where it is stuck to the lid of a salsa jar. It is not hilarious, it is compulsive behavior gone disgusting.
If (e:janelle) and I had invested every quarter that she has put into vending machines, we could be retired and yachting right now.

Killing PuppiesOn the way home from work I ran into construction and turned up a cute little residential road when a dog bounded in front of my car. I hardly saw him coming. One moment the road was free from hazards, the next moment there was a curly haired dog standing in front of my car. He froze in place. I slammed on my brakes. I came just inches from hitting him, just inches. His owner was outside and had him off leash when he eloped. It was a good reminder to keep my own dog on leash, even though I admit that I'm guilty of letting him off the leash from time. And I just thank God I didn't hit the dog. I was in a car once with a driver who accidentally hit a coyote that ran across the interstate and I cried for the rest of the drive.

ugh, i hit a dog once that ran into the street. It was the worst thing ever!

Ugh. don't get me on my irresponsible dog owner rant.
So glad you didn't hit the pup though- for his sake and yours. I hit a squirrel once that was bad enough.

Even worse, Josh, on my scale are the dog owners who are holding the leash like a prop, but it's not attached to the dog. Lease law protects both the dog and somebody who they interact with, but a lot of owners are dumber than their pets when it comes to that stuff.
Glad you had what space was there between you and puppy Janelle.

Why are dog owners so god damn stupid when it comes to keeping their dogs unleashed? This is a pet peeve of mine. Everyone thinks their little smooshie wooshie won't do what "those other dogs" do, but they are wrong. I see dogs unleashed on Elmwood and know that one of these days I'm going to see something gross.

Oh my...I can't imagine hitting a dog or cat. I hit a skunk once and that was traumatizing enough, especially considering I don't like skunks very much. Way to be an alert driver :)

Glad you didn't hit the dog.
I was moving across town once in a uhaul van filled to the brim. On a grassy area next to the road a group of guys were playing with a puppy. Just as I got out of Gates circle the puppy bolted onto Delaware, full with traffic. He ran in front of my van, in front of the next lane and the two incoming lanes. He turned around and ran through all four lanes again back to his frantic owners.
Even nearly hitting a dog is traumatizing. I am glad everyone turned out unbruised for you.

Wow.. close call. Glad you didn't hit the puppy!
Wow.. close call. Glad you didn't hit the puppy!
He was born in Scotland but primarily raised in England - he does have an English accent!
Hell, for a Scot, he sounds like he's taken elocution lessons.
...and wikipedia proves you right.
He screams in a scottish accent.
I love that show. Laughlin's seriously needs his help. His accent doesn't sound very cockney to me though, I thought he was Scottish.
