"Time to lean/time to clean" was right up there with "Aces in places"

What the hell does that even mean?

you never count your money while they're sitting at the table
there'll be time enough for counting

Aces in places was supposedly about matching skills up with tasks, but was also just a bullshit way of saying you were going to do extra work that didn't fall under your job description, because you were an 'ace' and there was a 'place' waiting to be filled.

Bear in mind, this is the same job where we had to toil hard to be "Constant Caring Friends" to the customers, known as "Everyday Heroes." We had to "close the circle...and go the extra mile" (with associated finger gestures). For some reason the word "Shazam!" was also involved.

This was a step up from the previous customer-service training regimen, called "Fanatical Customer Service." I never found out what that meant (burning down rival chains with torches? Torture equipment installed in the hotel gym?), and I don't want to.

I worked at Pizza Hit briefly in college and corporate would send out management briefings with like, monthly buzzwords and the one in use while I worked there was STELLAR and our weird uptight mid-20s eyes on the corporate prize manager would walk around saying STELLAR like a broken freaking record.

I got in the elevator with two women in my work building. One of them, a healthy-seeming woman who seemed to be in her mid-20s, went up only one floor. The remaining woman said, "Ugh, 1 floor, are you kidding me?"

I lied and told her that the other woman had bone cancer. For the rest of the ride she sputtered and went, "Oh no! Oh my god! I'm such a jerk!"

Doc Casino, if only he were that funny.

He did eventually quit and go back to being a normal drug addled 20-something living in a college town, so I think the story had a happy ending.

two months pass...

Guy at the gym last night, 40-something, goatee, macho, in the steam room with his wife. First, he was "suggesting" his wife do things: Why don't you sit down right here. You wanna lay down, scoot your butt against the wall, and put your feet up the wall to stretch? Then he paced around the tiny room, bumping into people's feet and getting in the way of the door.

But what really set him apart was that he brought in a bottle of some kind of essential oil (eucalyptus? mint?) and after his wife declined to rub some on her neck (??) he doused the steam vent copiously with it. I mostly can't smell, but the mintiness or whatever was overwhelming and it drove me and a couple other people out immediately.

Later he went up to a guy in a shower stall and said, "'ey, can I have some of your shampoo? I forgot mine."

Je55e, Friday, 25 April 2014 18:45 (nine years ago) link

The shower stall thing reminds me of something that happened to my friend his freshman year of college. He was taking a shower in the dorms (row of shower stalls with a vinyl curtain in front of each), and after he finished and was walking away his (randomly-assigned) roommate of the time stepped two-thirds of the way out of a shower stall to say, "Bye, Sean!"

Cities have tried everything from the postal service (a Spanish mayor mailed the stuff back to dog owners) to shaming (some cities have publicized the names of offending owners) to bribery (some parks in Mexico City offered free Wi-Fi in exchange for bags of waste).

i definitely like the first option. send that shit back to them. wipe that shit on their cars, front doors, whatever.

marcos, Friday, 6 June 2014 17:50 (nine years ago) link

before the city started rehabbing the bloomingdale trail (a disused raised-earth/concrete train track popular w/ joggers), a friend and i were walking on it and discovered an enormous pile of plastic bags filled with dog shit that someone had been systematically tossing up onto the trail instead of throwing it in the garbage. the fucking laziness of people.

clouds, Friday, 6 June 2014 17:59 (nine years ago) link

oh yea i see bags of dog shit laying around almost as much as unbagged

I try as hard as I can not to judge others for their actions. However I've more recently drawn up a very short list of unforgiveables:

1. People who clap on the beat (bar certain exceptions like Latin rhythms etc)
2. People who leave washing-up liquid to dry on plates and forks
3. People who assume the area code on their telephone number is automatically implied, especially if they live in London - As in: 'Yes my number is 2720362'

3kDk (dog latin), Tuesday, 5 August 2014 10:20 (nine years ago) link

3. This means you hate old people.

fields of salmon, Tuesday, 5 August 2014 17:39 (nine years ago) link

Or people from Delaware, where there is only one area code.

carl agatha, Tuesday, 5 August 2014 17:44 (nine years ago) link

4. People who get tattoos of area codes that are subsequently rezoned

ppl who use 'ask' as a noun

mookieproof, Monday, 11 August 2014 23:12 (nine years ago) link

Q

ppl who use 'ask' as a noun

What about "a heavy lift" instead of "ask." As in, "I know this is a heavy lift, but..." Someone used it on me the other day and I kind of liked it.

tobo73, Tuesday, 12 August 2014 11:20 (nine years ago) link

Lift has long been used as a noun. Ask is a recent piece of jargon.

dustups delivered to your door (Aimless), Tuesday, 12 August 2014 15:37 (nine years ago) link

from a 1781 letter by the scholar Thomas Twining (whose grandfather founded the Twinings tea empire):

“I am not so unreasonable as to desire you to take notice of all the stuff I scribble, or answer all my asks.”
