"I like an escelator man, because an esclelator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an "Escelator temporarily out of order sign" only an "Escelator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience"- Mitch Hedburg (one of my favorite comedians who died too soon)
The escelator at at my job stopped working today and it made me think of that.
Just got a call. Have a a.d.d. can't type and talk.
A guy dreamily smiled at me while he paid for his shoes. I didn't think it was because of me, I just thought he was having a good day. His hands were stained probably from dirt or motor oil, that's usually the hands of people who buy work boots. My co-worker watched him stare at me and made a note of it before she left. I had no clue, I never like assume. I just thought...he was having a good day." He was just there watching you walk back and forth [she imitates his face, lol, she looked high]You were so serious, you barely even noticed him" she says. I really was.
I wasn't supposed to work today, it was a favor, and very big favor. NEVER AGAIN. People made all kinds of strange requests which required too much of my underpaid time. But there were some entertaining moments. This one woman with out of control kids just up and said "Oh my God I'm going to kill myself" and her husband nonchalantly picked up some women's shoes and asked if she liked them...as if he had heard her say that a thousand times. That's love right there.
Just got a call. can't type and talk. not a task I mastered. a.d.d.
Alright, going to see Inside Man. Again.
