Major run on liquor stores here rumor has it the barbarians are going to close liquor stores. So glad I stocked up.
I didn't even make it to the alcohol section in my quest for chili today. Have 3 30... 2 and a partial 30 packs. After that my liver could probably use a nice cleansing for once.
Got up left the house at 5:30 drive 12 miles south to be there when the grocery store opened, no TP went to the other grocery store, no TP. Drove back to the town I live near to the grocery store no TP. Drove to the next town to the north went to one grocery store no TP. Then it was time to try the walmart got there 15 minutes before it opened. Now there is a certain demographic that prefers walmart and their actions and appearance is amusing and sometimes concerning to me. So there I am sitting in my truck and people are starting to wait in line to get in. I profiled the one most prone to have an outburst, a jumbo standing in line with the multi colored hair, pierced face and standing outside in 18 degree weather not wearing a coat so we could all see her tattoos. I get out and waited about 2 minutes behind the line. Doors opened and parts of the crowd are all headed for the back corner where the TP was. I did not run but I can still walk pretty fast I passed a few people and tatted Jumbo. I turn the corner and no TP, 15 seconds later Jumbo comes around the corner and sees no TP, she starts yelling are you f'ing kidding me over and over. I was so tempted to say hey Jumbo they are out of bon bons too just to see the complete meltdown.
Why bother hitting TP isle? As others are all running there, run in the direction of the napkins, wrapping gift white tissue paper. Things really bad? Go to the general dollar kids coloring craft isle find the cheap drawing pads or note book paper..of course those after checking kleenex and paper towels. Oh industrial rolls of paper towels the brown ones. Our county just got it's first case but doesn't say where.
Same here Sota, why we need to get the townies as it were to use the other stuff..lol nasty ole Scotts TP and never an issue..hell, knock on wood!
Wastebasket and firepit, the old Mexico way.. like if half of the people in the U.S. knew what the real functioning purpose of that cute little chiminea burning pinion wood was really for they wouldnt own one.
Well they announced a shutdown at work starting next Wednesday. Auto makers shutdown and so we suspend business till they reopen. They gave us option to use PTO time to get full pay till it runs out and then to file for unemployment, or just file next Wednesday. They are how ever keeping insurance active during the shutdown. They also said that if we choose the PTO option and they need us to do something they will credit us a full day of PTO even if is just a phone call or we have to go in. Could be a lot worse. It may be my first deer season in years of no vacation time.
I got this in email today and was told to carry it on me to get to work and back. I guess people may be getting stopped and questioned on what they’re doing?
