And People Are Crazy....

This is my truck. I think the orange renders it invisible.



First of all I must say that Mom is not going to die tomorrow. She is at the beginning stages of emphysema, she still needs some tests done to determine the best course of action. She is using her nicotine patches and has basically quit smoking. She wants to see her grand kids grow up. She wants to be in the stands when Jarrett graduates so she can yell "That's my Baby!" with the rest of us.


Secondly, why is it that no one can read, even if it's neon pink and right in your face? It was windy the other day, so we busted out the Please Use Other Door sign, which is printed on neon pink paper and still, nearly everyone used that door. My personal favorite was after we had moved the trash can in front of the door, people still used that door. When you go to exit and the door hits a trash can perhaps it's not the best thing to squeeze out of that door anyway. Just maybe it's there for a reason. A man went to leave and opened the door and..surprise! it hit the trash can. So naturally he squeezed thru and with a "well, there's your problem" expression on his face proceeded to use the door to push the trash can out of the way by basically beating the door up against the trash can in order to move it. One of our town employees happened to be coming in to the store and soon showed him the error of his ways, pointing out the bright pink sign and moving the trash can back where it was . The door is already cracked. One of these times the wind it going to catch it and slam it up against the side of the building and shatter it . Maybe then people will understand. Maybe not. I drive a very large black and orange truck and no one seems to be able to see me. People have pulled out in front of me more times than I can count and nearly backed in to me just as many times.
