I work in a large retail store. I see a group of women in the bath and toiletries section, each carrying one of our wicker baskets for sale, but also neatly accumulating and placing various toiletry products inside the baskets.
When the baskets look somewhat presentable, I see them place them on the shelf and walk away. I rush over to them. I am referring to a trend on TikTok to make gift baskets in retail stores and leave them on the shelves for people to buy and get for their partners, friends, etc. They leave quiet and embarrassed as I start to return the items to their correct shelves. We had a very nice β but spelling-challenged β administrative assistant in the office I worked in several years ago. Part of our work was federally funded, and we had to submit a quarterly summary document of key deliverables that the office assistant would cull from our worklogs and staff meetings.
When our boss discovered this, he lost it and required that she use spell check for everything. But the misspellings intensified. She insisted that she was using spell check, so I was tasked with going through a report with her and confirming.
I work at a big box electronics store. Three, the box is barely scratched so you can pay the price or get out. Mom said you were gonna get told one of these days! You got toooold! I was playing on my Nintendo DS on the subway when I caught a random connection. I looked up to see if I could spot the other person with a DS, and I wound up locking eyes with this incredibly intense little boy who was seated a few benches away from me.
I did, in fact, have Pokemon. With that, our fate was sealed. I had just experienced this in real life. He destroyed me. All level s. His mom was wearing headphones but took them out as the train was approaching. They have anger issues. My mother-in-law has been asking frequently if she can help with any of the planning. On the day of the party, we are greeting guests when my mother-in-law shows up empty-handed. I walked into the kitchen, came back out with a plate of cookies, and set them in their spot.
