working in a city is ridiculous some guy came in to my job today in sandals, white pajama pants and a brown bathrobe open with no shirt on and proceeded to ask my boss if he like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and then tried to give my boss the various fixings for said sandwiches (a bag of sliced bread, jars of peanut butter and jelly) and when my boss said he didn't want them the guy was like "well i have to go to the hospital in a minute and i need to get rid of them." my boss said something like well you can give them to someone on the street who needs it, or put it next to the trash can just out there. and the guy started stuffing the food back into his bag and just said "well, i'll be back in here later, but i have to go." then he walked out and crossed the street without looking

#rarely is there a truly boring day at this job #a couple weeks ago someone pissed on the floor in front of the register #yesterday i was shelving our scifi section and an entire shelf collapsed on me #so my other boss and i spent like 2 hours fixing it #on saturday some lady called to get a copy of Kant's Groundwork on the Metaphysics of Morals #and then when I asked her which translation she wanted because we had 2 she went ''what do you mean translation''#and i had to be like ''well it was translated from German so different translators might interpret certain words a little differently...''#what i really wanted to say was ''maybe you're not ready for kant if you don't understand the concept of translation differences''
