What REALLY grinds your gears?

Am I the only one keeping the dream alive?



Where do you guys hang your "live, laugh love" signs? Next to your fruit dehydrater?

Thieves grind my damn gears. So last night, the start of my three day fathers day weekend extravaganza I am doing my due diligence at the vodka distillery downtown. Beautiful night. Maybe the most ideal weather I have ever experienced. It was like summer spring and fall had a mé·nage à trois and created a new season.
Than my wife gets a call from our friend, who had her daughter and my daughter at Target. My daughter is 14, went through the self checkout and put her phone down on the metal tray. She walked away, got about ten steps turned around and it was gone. The people at the register claimed they did not have it and leave. Target calls the police who watch the video and see those people swipe the phone. Wtf are you going to do with a phone? We immediately turned it off. It can not be turned on again or anything completely useless. Deductible is 200, and my daughter will have a phone Monday, if she makes it that long without one. It isn’t the end of the world, It is good that for two days she doesn’t have a phone in her face. But these fuckin scumbags who knew it was a little girl and swiped it. What Assholes.
Waiting to see if the cops can trace it or better yet see who was paying after my daughter and hopefully they used a credit card.

Sorry to hear. Nothing worse than losers like that. And this isn't a first for them. It's a lifestyle choice of theirs.

Sorry to hear that Punch but at 14 it's one of those life lessons that hopefully she will remember. reminds me of a time a few years ago when I got a call from my bank. My card had been used on line for a computer that they were picking up at the store. They stopped the sale but the idiots didn't know it...Wal-Mart did. I got the location of the store and called the local Police to let them know. No one would tell me what ever happen ,took my bank 10 working days to get me a new card.

Lol
It was customers. If it were workers id have the phone back. Yeah my dorm room was that same exact room Chico but I can live with a stoned whore lifting cash from me. Some lady with her children knowingly taking a childs phone not so much. Anyway thanks for the flashbacks from college life. Oh what a time it was…

Im a big fan of self checkout. I partially blame my kid for walking away after placing her phone down. Her third phone in three years. The other two drowned.

Not me, I think if I'm helping the Company keeping cost down I.E. less employee benefits I should get a discount.

Ouch that sucks punch. Def. sucks that you can't put something down for that short a period of time and it will get swiped. Good learning lesson though.

And thanks for the kind words about the sciatica. Gotta go find me an orthopedist soon and hopefully get on with some physical therapy.

Mred I watched that video you recommended and did the exercises - no joke I literally believe it made it worse lol. The pain in my leg is much more intense since I did that on Thursday. I had a friend send me some more exercises she did to get over her sciatica, so we'll see. But I'm still gonna go see an ortho to see what they say. I'm not opposed to physical therapy just because I did 6 weeks for my fractured wrist earlier this year and it's back to normal now.

You doing any better?
