In the news, something rather unexpected happened--I got a check from Wal-Mart. Apparently, they auto-enroll associates into their profit sharing/401k plan after they've worked there for x amount of time. Since I left, and wasn't really there long enough to have Wal-Mart vest a lot of money on my behalf, they put 300 and change into a specified account for me that would keep growing (as long as I continued to work there) until I retired. Because I was there for so little, they cashed out whatever money they put in minus half or so. Regardless, I got a check for $144 that I didn't have to work for. Hey, $144 is $144. Free money? Yeah, I'll take it. I wish I could open my mailbox and find random money there all the time.

April got her first sale from her delicious baking--someone in the office wanted THE CHOCOLATE CAKE. I've got a hard-on just thinking about it. It's chocolate cake made from scratch. So not-healthy for you, but SOOO fuckin' good. The link to her price list is a post or two down. But yes, April made her first sale...and none of you have purchased anything from Mad Squirrel Stuff. The banner is above, so CLICKY!

It's been a while since I had a good rant and/or chuckle about the general public (i.e., customers). However, a few days ago, I had two experiences that can be classified as real gems. ( 2 Scenes: Our postal employees at work; and a customer mails his 11 Theses on how to improve the NY Lottery. )
