Default OT----Opinions requested on a moral dillema

In article , Jon Danniken says...

Yes, it is fun to post little quotes


At least he didn't use the 'denial' thing. Count yer blessings....

... Hence, I do
not fixate on what everyone in the line ahead of me is purchasing;


I often do. Usually the following thoughts occur:

1) how come they're taking so long.

2) why do I have to always be behind the genius who can pick
20 things off the shelf and *one* of them will be missing the
UPC code.

3) he's buying the wrong tool for that job.

4) if you poke me with that thing again you're gonna have to
buy me a drink (this one, about the guy behind me with the
cart full of pipe).

5) no you can't pay for that crap with a third party check
from a Uzbekistan bank. I don't care how often walmart lets
you do that.

6) if you can't figure out how the self-checkout works then
why don't you just stay home.

7) next time I'm gonna pay for this in the tool crib.

etc etc etc.

Occasionally I voice the thoughts. Then my daughter hits me.
This is almost as much fun as hitting the horn button on
the forklifts there as we walk by, and then as the orange apron
crowd stares around the corner at us, say in a loud voice: "Margaret,
stop fooling around with the fork lift!!"

They leave the keys in those things mostly, ya know.

Home depot, a journey not a destination.
