grocery-store-bar blues

alternative title: “she shouldn’t have her dog at the bar.”

“he made me walk to register!”
“why don’t you guys serve booze?”
“that guy’s a dick, he hit and quit.”

i remember (teaching massage in destin) when students would complain about the selection of free pizza that the owner would buy (on clinic nights) so they didn’t have to rush out & back for dinner. i say again: they complained about free pizza!

 

when patrons at the grocery-store-bar complain (e.g. last night when ‘cindy’ shouted that i should “kick-out” billy because he called her husband an “ass”)...

i breathe… and i try not to roll my eyes.
