Yesterday, my friend Jenna and I went down to my place of employment to pick-up my check, THAT clearly shows how underpaid I am for the stressful job I have. Honestly, people go nuts over coffee.
Anyways, Jenna and I decided that we would sit outside and kill sometime whilst the line at the cash slowly disintegrated for her to order a strawberry smoothie. My co-worker came out and joined us on her break in which her and I discussed how unfortunately small our paychecks are. I agreed with her and we began talking about how next year we should go out west.
In the meantime, Jenna decided that it would be best for her to order to drink, and so she headed inside to place her order, while myself and my co-worker stayed at the picnic table.
No sooner had Jenna left to go inside, than did a woman come over to where I was sitting exclaiming "THAT FUCKING BITCH".
To my surprise, I thought she was talking about my friend. But she wasn't. It was at this time she came over to my picnic table and began talking to me about the bus driver who was "a fucking bitch" because she could not wait "15-fucking-minutes. What does she think we are ? Fucking robots? No one moves that fast". Somewhere in the midst of the swearing she managed to complement me on the headband I was wearing and how "it reminded her of the 70's".
Following her swearing rant, she takes a seat at the table and apologizes saying that she usually doesn't talk like this and she goes to church. She as a matter-of-factly said "I talk to God, and he talks back to me. He is talking to me right now saying 'Dawn, she should have waited for you! She should have waited for you!"
Right about now, I understood her. I had to hold back my laughter for fear of her attacking me with her words. She then began complementing me again on my headband. Asking to touch it and where I got it. And then how much it was. I told her it was a 6-pack for 10 dollars. She went NUTS! I thought she was going to blow. She could just NOT believe that a company would sell 6, instead of 1. I agreed with everything that she said - I didn't know if she had a shank.
Another girl from work came outside to have a smoke and sat at the table with me. The lady goes "ugh, oh. Could you smoke that the other way....I'm allergic." My co-worker looked like she was ready to one-punch her in the left breast. So she got up and told me to come with her.
I heard my friend come out. The lady stopped her to ask her about the menu. Jenna thought she was poor, or homeless. That was until she whipped out her cell phone from her backpack. Jenna came over to where we were sitting at the side of the building where we could hear Dawn yelling - no - screaming into her phone. That poor person on the other end....
William's brings in some c-l-a-s-s-y people.
