Here's your sign

[Mischka]

For a good chunk of yesterday, I studied by myself at a coffee shop near campus. After downing several grande cups of coffee, I headed to the rest room. When I opened the door, I noticed two empty rolls of toilet paper on the dispenser and no cabinets for which to check for a replacement. So I turned around and headed to the sales counter. This is the actual exchange I had yesterday with the clerk behind the counter:

Me: Excuse me, but the rest room is out of toilet paper.

Clerk: The men's rest room, or the women's rest room?

I was so tempted to say men's.

There was this wise-ass woman at the coffee shop i work at yesterday. Some shit about toilet paper being out. What the fuck do people want from me, I make coffee for fuck;s sake...i'm not a janitor.

And did I mention that this same clerk couldn't comprehend the simplest instruction when I ordered my coffee? When I say "please leave room for cream," most people understand that to mean more than a millimeter of space.

Goddamnitall.

This same woman gave me all kinds of dirty looks when she got her cup of coffee. Apparently i filled her cup too full, well give me a break, she would have opened her lousy trap about not getting enough otherwise. I almost said something when she was muttering under her breath.

F'ck'n A!

Hey, isn't this the place that uses toilet paper for coffee fliters?

You know Mischka

My oldest son loves playing that game. I told him a joke about those needing signs. Now when we go anywhere, and he sees someone desperately in need of a sign so that the rest of us can easily identify who needs to be ingored and just walked past.
