Friday has arrived! This is one of my regularly scheduled days off. The temps are supposed to climb up into the mid 40s (F), which will be nice. Rain is on the way, though, and so I'm anticipating showers and occasional steady rains for the next three days. It's not that rain is preferable to snow, neither really matters to me. Mostly, I dislike the constant cloud cover. I do like the sunshine.
I did work yesterday and it was very slow... except for those coming in and buying the super reduced Christmas decorations we still had available. There are decent amount of tree decorations and lights, everything else is too ugly for people to want. As far as sales go, it's going to be a dry few week. This is normally not the season for flooring installations. I only have one open quote and that customer is not going to buy. She wanted us to price match our competition. Their quote was $3000, ours was $3800. For us to price match, she'd need to bring in a printed copy of their quote showing that their carpet was equivalent or better than the one she chose from us. She's not going to do that. She's selling her house and wanted the carpet installed before she listed it on the market; the home was listed last week.
When I did get home from work my neighbors were very silent. They were silent all evening. The sound of a church mouse would have sounded like a roar. This is a good thing. If I haven't mentioned it before, she seems to be the one who needs the volume. She's also a 51 year-old trying to be 19, however, I suspect her maturity level is around 14.
Of course, yesterday, open warfare between MAGA cultists and pseudo-president Musk erupted. You see, Elonia had the affrontery to say that he preferred hiring immigrant workers to Americans because Americans were either poorly trained or untrainable. This is what started the fight.
The greedy felon needs every dime he can get :) and now the magats start to realize Elonia and the other oligarchs are not their friends. They voted for all this shit, now the magats can eat it, pass them the Grey Poupon.

Elonia's not even going to take the time to say "let them eat cake."
DeleteThe OA is the very epitome of the term Useful Idiot.
ReplyDeleteI don't doubt that dipshit is delighted to have Musk patting him on the head.
