This is spooky as fuck, but my exact thought before clicking was “Well, that sucks...”

This is because I got up early and grabbed the communal brain cell first. You can have it back now—I need to go to a trade show, and one doesn’t need cognitive skills for that. Just caffeine, and an ability to grab the good bling.

On memorial day, the local Taco Bell was staffed with three people at lunch hour. One was taking orders at the counter, one was taking orders at the drive-thru, and one was prepping the food. They were apologetic to the customers. With one person making food and new people showing up every 5 minutes, they were very overwhelmed. Just close the fucking restaurant if that his how it is going to be. I hate American culture where everything is supposed to be available at all times, which requires some form of abuse that we refuse to acknowledge (still haven’t fully accepted the abolishment of slavery after 150 years, I guess). Anyway, you’d think with all the technology and “wealth” this country has access to, we’d figure out ways to not screw each other over, but instead those things are used to screw each other over under more obscure, institutionalized pretexts about rights and privileges.

I happen to work in a mall. It has been earlier and earlier. (also Christmas music has been playing since the day before Halloween) Black Friday generally is seen as doomsday. No one is happy that day.

I’ll be getting off after midnight.
