cheesy christmas story December 12, 2007
Today I was in kinkos trying to fax something and this cute old guy was asking one of the employees about scanning a photo onto cd for him so he could go to costco and make it into christmas cards. He had no idea what he was talking about, it was obvious costco sent him over there, and the woman was so rude to him. Something about copyright crap and she wouldn’t help him one bit. She had a terrible attitude and said it all in this holier than though voice and was barely listening to a thing he said. He kept asking her questions that she wouldn’t (said she couldn’t) quite answer while she kept pointing to this copyright sign and I just blurted out ‘they’re just covering their asses.’ I thought, oops I just cussed at my grandpa.
It was a photo from his 70th birthday cruise that he and his entire family went on all the way down to the grandkids, except the ones in college. He said he was glad it was a red head helping him, his wife is one and he likes red heads.
Maybe we can’t help people like the retail lady and her funky attitude which wasn’t even mildly affected by the cute old man. But if I could just stand around kinkos for christmas and help old people make christmas cards, i would feel like it was a mighty fine holiday.
