peace on earth and good will toward men, damn it!

 I do volunteer work at our church's food bank and thought I'd share some of my experiences this evening. If you're expecting heart warming and tender, you're obviously reading the wrong blog and we've never met. People are stupid and I hate them. You'd think that getting free food would make them fall to their knees, overcome with gratitude. Nope. Now, don't get me wrong. there are some who do. I've met some wonderful people and this is why I do it. But for the other 80% of the population, I want to kick them in the shins and steal their lunch money. To my chagrin, they're coming in to get free food. This means they have no lunch money for me to steal. Damn. 

                       Here are some of my favorites.

                   1. No lady, you don't get 22 packages of diapers. That's a 2. You don't get to write in another 2 and assume we were all born yesterday. Put them back! No diapers for you!

                   2. No mister, I said 1 package of tortillas. You can't sneak another one into your basket while my back is turned and think I won't notice. I'm on to you. No tortillas for you!

                   3. Can I get raisin bran instead of toasty o's?          - no 

                             But I don't like toasty o's. I want raisin bran!          - no substitutions. sorry.

                             I told her raisin bran. I don't know why she put down toasty o's       - too bad. 

                             I want to talk to your manager!    - No. No cereal for you!

                                                This conversation actually happened. 

                   4. In what alternate universe does a family of 3 need 8 gallons of milk? seriously!
                   5. I can't eat this....oh well..

                   6. do you have?....no..

  
         So I am forced to tell them to take their food and they'll eat  it and it and like it! Merry Christmas, damn it!  ... Get out...

                            *footnote*

                                   when you come in to see me, make sure your form is filled out right, don't try to steal more stuff and think I won't catch it, don't ask to substitute this or get you more of that., and  realize I am NOT wal-mart!  oh ya. And if we do authorize 1 or 2 minor changes, this does not mean you get to dump armloads of stuff into your basket. Deal with it, or no food for you! Thank you and I say good day...
