A toilet seat. And it was old... and it was dirty. That's right, some moron evidently needed to bring in his old toilet seat to make sure he got the same thing, as if there's a big variety. It's either round or it's oval. And even though they may be made of wood, or plastic, or padded, or purple, or green, they're all the same size. This is because shitters are all standardized. Still, someone felt the need to bring their old, dirty, toilet seat and leave it behind... like some lost soul. Associates are now laughing at this pseudo ignoramus because they brought in an old toilet seat, with crap on it, and...Left It Behind.
When you hit middle age you really only have two choices: you can get fat and lazy until you roll over and die, or you can can get off your ass and do something, like maybe ride a bike.
Bluntness
I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Left Behind
Interesting title, isn't it? Am I talking about one side of your butt, as in "I have a pain in my left behind cheek?" Or am I veering into Krazy Kristian territory. Of course, then, I might be talking about something connected to neither butts nor faith. Remember, I work for a home improvement chain. There are times when people come into the store and they don't exactly know what they want, but they do have the old item; the thing that broke on them and sent them to us in the first place. We see a lot of light bulbs from refrigerators and microwaves and oddly shaped desk lamps. We get a lot of attachments, meaning things that look like screws or bolts but aren't really, yet they do something similar. Last evening I walked back to our Self Checkout, after closing down some of the service desk registers, and the clerk pointed to a shopping cart and said "That was left behind," and I didn't have to walk over to see exactly what he was talking about.

Christmas Schedule / Returns
They finally posted my Christmas week schedule. Yippy! It's okay. I'm scheduled to work 32 hours. That's sounds normal, except I always work more hours. It goes with the job. I always work more then 40 hours in a 40 hour work week. This is what's expected. Anyway, this is what it looks like.
You'll notice I have 3 scheduled days off, one of them being Christmas Day. It would have been nice to have at least two of those days consecutive. Alas, that was not to be. Because kids are home from school, a lot of people take vacation at this time of year. The store closes at 5 PM on Christmas Eve, and since nobody wants to work it, I'm there. I manage the paint department which will be completely devoid of customers. Nobody paints Christmas Eve. No one's going to paint on Christmas Day, either. And that 5:30 AM start on 12/26 is a booger. We will have 2 types of customers: those looking for dirt cheap Christmas decorations, and those returning unwanted presents. Mostly we see the latter bringing back things like the Electric Bottle opener that takes 5 minutes to open a bottle of wine, and the Illuminated Toilet Seat. That's right, we sell one of those just to make sure when you go for that middle of the night whiz you don't hit the floor. We're not allowed to resell toilet seats, so every one of those gets written off. And nobody is going to buy paint.
