Monkey's Magical Treehouse of Awesomeness

-note to self- never trust Walmart to give good customer service in the craft department.

Wasted my time to go to Walmart to find out they like to neglect having a fabrics worker be on the clock.

I've been there too. I went in hoping to see someone to help me but no one was back there. Glad I had a friend who knew what she was doing. Too bad you didn't have someone to help you.

I managed to get to a fabrics store on time.... I might sound like an ass, but it was like, 5 minutes before they closed. But I needed the fabric, I already knew what I needed and the measurements and I found the fabric I needed very quickly too.

Glad you got the fabric you needed Monkeygirl - what are you making?

[MonkeyGirl18]

pillows

[Lemon Cheesecake]

nice. for christmas gifts?

[Watery Star]

Throw pillows?

[MonkeyGirl18]

Yes for Christmas.


Idk, I guess you can call them that.

I like pretty pillow cases, especially soft ones

[Watery Star]

We have a couple pillow cases that are a pretty blue and very soft but it attracts hair and fur. I use the others that aren't as soft but don't attract things. We have some that are more decorative pillow cases, cause their kinda rough. I use those as lap pillows when I'm sitting in bed doing something on my phone or tablet.

I guess the intended use for the pillow changes how important the various components are. For an all-around couch pillow, the stuffing is just as important as the covering. For me, the color is the last important aspect in the grand scheme of couch pillows!

I am sorry in advance for the foul language, but it seems my life isn't done pissing me off yet...

[+] SPOILER

I'm just done with everything at this point.

Yeah, I'm kinda frustrated with work* and drivers right now. And the public/people in general. I'm also done with anxiety attacks because of assholes. I'm done with everything.




*MORE LIKE THE FREAKING CUSTOMERS IN DRIVE THRU! URGH!

[galled]

Sorry things aren't going well. It's the time of year (goodwill to man and all that, but some people act like jerks on steroids!). It'll soon be over. Just a few more weeks...

[MonkeyGirl18]

Eh, it's not because it's Christmas season or anything.

A lady went through the drive thru and asked me if I thought the chicken biscuit was any good. I never tried it before because I don't like biscuits and I don't care for McDonald's crispy chicken. I misheard her and thought she was ordering the chicken biscuit.

She tell me that she doesn't want to order it. I tell her ok and asks what she wants to order so that I can void out the item because I can't void an item when it's the only item on the screen. But she keeps getting mad because I wasn't taking it off when I couldn't. I kept trying to tell her that she needs to order something so that I can take it off, I told her I would fix it. Then she thinks I'm being "Fucking ignorant" (she literally said I was being fucking ignorant) and I turned the mic off and gave the headset to my manager asking them to take care of the unruly customer because I couldn't handle the anxiety the lady was giving me. I literally kept explaining to her that I wasn't able to at that moment. The lady was the ignorant one, not me. She needs to learn the definition of ignorance.

And when it comes to drivers...

This on driver was in a pickup truck and they were in the fast lane...... Going like 25mph on a 55mph road.... IN THE FAST LANE, FOR GOODNESS SAKE! Drivers like that just annoy me and makes my road rage worse.

[galled]

Sometime it isn't worth explaining if they don't get it the second time. I've had people tell me that they'll have the total at the window (I guess they're fixing things or calling the manager over while I drive up).

I had to generally have more patience on the road lately--it seems like more people on the road and many seem lost or not paying attention. But yesterday was the worst (my pet peeve). I was behind this person on the freeway who couldn't stop stepping on the brake every 2 seoconds for no reason. I hate that!!
