++++ I hate it when people create racism when it isn't even there. I want to tell them, S.T.F.U., you wouldn't know racism if it hit you in the arse.


That being said, I have been a long time hater of huge companies like AT&T or HP because of their voicemail systems that waste about 15 minutes of our time before we can do what 99 out of 100 people want to do when they call, which is talk with a human.

Our account at work annoys me. The Peachtree software that we use for payroll was updated and she did not notice that taxes and SS were not held out of our pay. It will come out with the next check. WTF?

Plus, on a mileage check she misspelled my last name. The last a was a s on the check. Amature hour. And not in a good way like at the Apollo.

The woman in front of me in the checkout line (I will add black, dressed like she is going to a club (dress a few sizes too small), make up, nails done..., but this has no bearing on the story yet.) has a cart full of very good looking steaks, some deli sides, general groceries, a couple cases of beer...  Someone is having a very good dinner...

Cashier rings everything up, $300 & something, and woman pays with her ebt card.  The cashier, VERY POLITELY and VERY DISCRETELY, says the balance for the items not covered is $60 something.

At this point this woman EXPLODES!  Yelling at the cashier - DON'T YOU BE JUDGING ME, YOU make the beast with two backsING LITTLE WHITE TRASH SLUT!!!... I'ZE GOTS 5 KIDS TO BE FEEDIN'...

Then proceeds to pull out a big wad of cash - the first three bills in the stack were 100's, and I am presuming a few more that.

Still yelling at the cashier, throws a c-note at her.  THERE YOU GO YOU make the beast with two backsING SKANK HO!!!

(manager and another beefier employee are now at check stand, to try to defuse situation)

Cashier, still very polite, rings up the balance, gives the change.

The woman then says "I also need some make the beast with two backsing cash back!"  (Something to add to my rant - Cash back from food stamps?!!!)

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

The racial overtones in this thread have gone far enough.

Thanks it was getting a little overtone like in here.

I'm glad my wife doesn't read this stuff.

That was an interesting event, not to diminish the urgency of your story but........  there was no mention of cold sweat.  It's not a panic moment until you have the cold sweats going.  You had a good 2 minutes to go.      [cheeky]
