Great Day At Work

Well, what a day I had to day. Mixed some paint, dealt with some bitchy customers, zoned, and stood outside for 2 1/2 hours because of a bomb threat.

Yeah you heard me. A FUCKING BOMB THREAT. Who in god's name phone's in a bomb threat to Wal-Mart? Fucker. So yeah. I'm helping this customer find, of all things, a toilet seat, when our manager comes on and tells us that our store is closing and could everyone please leave the store. Of course I have no idea what's going on, so I can't help the people who are asking me why we are closing so early. So I make my way to the front where we are all told to leave the building and make our way to the opposite side of the parking lot. During this time I find out that there has been a code Blue called, which is a bomb. So we all wait outside for at least 2hrs waiting to get the all clear from the R.C.M.P so we can go back inside and not freeze out assess off. Anyway, during this time, many of us all piled into peoples cars. These were the smart people who had their keys with them, not the stupid shlubs like me, who left everything inside our lockers. Because we ended up waiting for so long, Lynn went and bought us all donuts from Tim Hortens, and someone (I can't remember her name) went and got coffee and cream for us from her other work place. Anyway, when it was all said and done, it was a great way to blow 2hrs and get to know my other co-workers.

But Now I am tired. I will finish telling you about all the other bits tomorrow. Night all.
