*angst*

November 21 2005

Yeah...  I really wish people would actually pay attention to what I say/use my knowledge/totally not ignore me...


*at work*
Me: "Hey, how ya doin'?"
Random customer in store: "Oh, I don't need anything, thanks."
(...I asked how you were doing, not if you needed help.  Pfffh.)


*at work, #2*
Random customer: (talking to child) "Let's see if we can find the Playstation One games."
Me: (after greeting customer) "What can I help you find?"
R.C.: "Ah, nuthin', I'm good."
(...Like, WTF, mates?)

*at work, #3*
Me: (after greeting customer) "Do you have any questions about anything?"
Random customer: "No, I'm just looking..."
Me: "Alright, well if you--"
R.C.: "When/what/do you have..."
(I just asked if you had a question and you said no...and interrupted me with a question.  Ghah.)


*at work, #4*
Me: (after greeting "guest") "Do you have any questions about anything?"
Random Woman: "I'm a girl."
(First off, from a non-contextual standpoint, what in the hell kind of response is that?  When asked whether you want cake or pie, you don't reply with green beans!  And secondly, that's just bad stereotyping.  Needless to say, I didn't like her much.  ...stupid friggin' %$#&%...)


*at work, #5*
Me: "Hi, how are you doing today?"
*Random customer totally doesn't hear me and continues to walk away from me.*
*I retaliate by not bothering to follow customer.*
(...You deaf/too focused/too busy to care?  Okay.  Jerk.)


...It also doesn't help that our manager has contacted everyone about their Xbox 360 and that we'll call them when they come in.  Yet, somehow, these people can't keep that in mind and continually ask.  Ghah.  Stupidheads.


...I don't ask for much.  I want to help people.  But, quite frankly, I can't help you if you're stupid.  If you're too stupid to realize I'm trying to help you, then that's your own fault. 


Like today, I was running a little late to school, and got backed up into traffic.  We were at a standstill-going-to-green situation with a sideroad with lots of people wanting to turn right.  I signalled at least 2 or 3 times to move, stopped and waited mind you, but the driver did absolutely nothing.  So, knowing that there's lots of traffic behind me, I just move on...  And, somehow, this person manages to recognize the guy behind signalling the driver to go.  ...What the hell?  I felt really ignored/irritated.  I reiterate, if you're too stupid to realize I'm trying to help you, then that's your own fault.


So, y'know, maybe I'll just quit helping people.  It doesn't seem to do anyone any good anymore.  I want to help, but if one doesn't acknowledge it or pushes it aside, I guess it really doesn't matter.  ...I quit...


...I guess I'm skipping class today since it's already started.  Whoops.  Oh darn.  I was kinda considering doing it anyway, but now that it's started and I'm not there, I won't bother with it.


I guess I'll go to the KUC.  Take it easy, everyone.


P.S. A trip is in order.  I've been stuck here doin' nuthin' for entirely too long; it's about time to go somewhere and do something.
