..ells Thomas. Yeah, Becca went straight to Thomas, the regional director. Completely goes behind managements back and tells Thomas so now Lexi's all pissed off. Lexi's cool. And always fair, too, she doesn't 'accidentally' make manager salary. She totally would've mediated.

But, check this out. I just found out today that Thomas is the one who hired Sam, I didn't know that. No way Becca knew that.

Thomas hired Sam? Since when does he have time to hire employees?

He doesn't. Ok, so, get this, I just found this out too. Sam's brother and Thomas's son are on the same little league team and apparently Sam is real good at working with Thomas' son. His son has special needs, remember?

Of course. Good for Sam then. Fuck Becca. What exactly did she say to Thomas or what did Sam do that was so bad?

He told her she looks weird.

That's it?

That's it.

Well, he's Sam so, you know, he said it a couple times.

I was right there. All three of us were in the break room together. Sam told Becca she has funny glasses, that's how it started.

Well, Becca, all 'sensitive and the world's ending every day' Becca told him that's not nice. "That's not nice, Sam. You shouldn't say that."

That's how she talks to him? Really?

I know! So, Sam gets all Sam on her and starts laughing like he does and told her she looks weird so, what's Becca do? Feeds into it, "that's not nice Sam."

"You look weird."

"Sam, I said that isn't nice."

"You look weird."

I thought it was funny and totally cute. Sam's like the most harmless ever and has a crush on Becca, she knows it too. So, I stopped it before her feelings got all kindergarten and Told Sam it's ok if no one gets his jokes, we left the break room. I thought it was over.

Did he say something else? What else could he have possibly said that was so horrible, 'don't choke on your Chick-fil-A?'

No, only you would say that. And we already know that's why you'd never last a single minute working with the public. She started crying. Goes to Thomas's office balling her eyes out.

Crying-crying or crying like a girl, crying?

Crying-crying.

Serious-serious?? She cried to the regional manager because he said she's weird, that's all he said?! He didn't curse or say something inappropriate or anything else, 'you're weird,' that's it?

That's it.

WTF!

I know! And it's not just her. Several people have a problem with him. I told Sam the other day to just come ask me if I need help first before asking anyone else.

Jerilyn told Lexi she doesn't want Sam's help anymore cuz all he ever does is tell her she's doing it wrong.

Doing what wrong?

Everything.

L o L

I can only maintain composure so long. I laughed out loud.

People today are soft as fuck. I've never met Sam but I've heard enough about him, I feel like I know him pretty well. I don't go to Puras place of employment—never have. If she's tending bar or managing logistics or drafting documents, I give her space. I've always believed in order to have a successful career, you must be able to separate home from work. I help her by not going to her work.

Sam's the new guy, only been there a couple months compared to everyone else's tenures. And he was hired by the regional manager, someone no one can talk shit about and someone who never does any hiring so they're jealous.

Has to be it.

They work with the general public. Sam interacts with hundreds of random strangers consistently and not one time has a customer or vendor or anyone else had anything bad to say about him.

Management goes out of their way to accommodate him. He never calls in sick or shows up late or says no to an assignment unlike more than half of their work staff, according to Pura. Customers, retailers, her and a couple others love him. Out of everyone Sam engages with every day, the only people who have a problem with him are his colleagues.

Has to be a jealousy thing.

He's the new hire, the newest team member they call it. I call that the lowest in pecking order. Thomas hired him and he coaches his son, they think he has leverage—has to be it.

Sam isn't like them. Or me. He has a third copy or part of a third copy of chromosome 21, it's called. He's differe ʐʍք.

Sort:  

This reminds me of the time I was in a play, and an autistic man had also been cast (the director had an autistic son). Everyone avoided him except for me. It was the first play he had ever been in, and he was quite freaked out. He did make some awful jokes, but who cares? Since I was the only person who would have anything to do with him and he was anxious, he followed me everywhere I went. One time he was standing outside the bathroom when I came out. If the others had been more friendly, I believe his behavior would have been less difficult to be around.

His colleagues must never have had anything to do with a down's person. They are generally incredibly loving and kind. What could his colleagues possibly be jealous of? Eventually, the others will come around.

I'd buy you a coffee if you were at a booth in the back by yourself all clackety clackety. <3


We were always cool with them, it was a long time ago but I remember them. They rode different buses and ate lunch together but we were always cool with each other.

Name was great, I wonder where the hell he is now? He'd always run over to me, high-five me in the middle of a football game or the quad or wherever.

Nobody had a problem with them.

I could keep going.....

Ahhhh.

A post title that I resemble...

Rollin'

Will read later...untitled.gif

Don't blog and drive.

Durn it. I looked. I couldn't find a cat one. 😂

I had to mentally erase that first paragraph
of noose after reading it. Dude. Noose. Dude. How dare you subject me to the noose.

Is that a cherry picture of Becca's head?

People today are soft as fuck.

That may be; however, that cherry looks like it's got a rock hard pit.

Btw, never seen anyone be as sexually suggestive with fruit as you have here.

Sexually suggewhative? I can't remember when I got those shots but I remember thinking they'd come in handy if I needed to call someone a dick nose.

Mhm.

Whaddup. Was the channel thing as cool for you as it was for me? Sometimes I should sugarcoat how easily I'm amused.

Suggestive of...

a dick nose.

Eh.

I think the channel thing was cooler for you. It just gave me bad flashbacks to years ago exposure to tv, until it was ejected finally and forever from my life. Someone or several someones always force foist the news on me anyway, kind of like how you did in the first paragraph of this post.

Brilliant. I LOVE Sam. I also love whoever employed him. I love employers who employ special needs as they employ them for their particular strengths, which all of them have,when all their lives, society has just commented on their weaknesses. There's space for everyone.

Everyone except Becca. I'd fire Becca.

If Becca ever reads this. You're not weird. Just pathetic.

Be like Sam.

We can all learn from Sam.

PS I am Sam. Great movie.

Thank you for an uplifting post. You just made my morning :-)

Becca fired you.

You are most welcome. Thank you for an uplifting comment. I'm not just saying that cuz you said it first cuz I said it last, I said it laaasst I said it laaasst.


Man, she comes home regularly, like a couple times a month, no shit, with another story about someone offended by Sam because he rubbed their back.

I wish I was making that up.

When I read your comment, it was so positive, I swear I felt it in my ears. He rubbed a chicks back once dude, in circles, she had to ask him to stop, he stopped. But that wasn't good enough so she ratted him out, "I just don't want him to do that to a customer," she said. Lyin ass cunt.

Dammit. It gets to me. I get pissed like Lexi and I've never even met the dude and it's too early. I swear if there's ever a work of hers I step foot in it's gonna be that one and it's only gonna be to meet Sam.

I am still a bit confused by all the weird shit in the first opening paragraph.

It then goes on to become even weirder. But I get it. I am "that guy" I would crack a joke and some panzy would run crying to the supervisors. I could not imagine working side by side with the arrested developement woke brainwashed propagandized big pharma junkies these days.

So drive on with just me and the cats I will. Not blogging while driving of course... That would just be WEIRD.!

Why would I want to miss how weirdly my hood exploded and how my weird life flashed before my very eyes the next time right..? Weirdly enough that disturbing giphy you sent me in that other comment made me very upset. I have already spoken with the Hive Whales, my therapist, Spoken with the authorities and a priest about exorcism. You should be called in for an HR meeting about your weirdness any time now...untitled.gif

Go ahead bro... Sing along.

Is that why that mufuker muted me?! Damn you got some pull.


Yooo! Yeah, I can hardly tell at all you didn't understand any of it, way over your head. You'll love this, it'll be real fun, I've been using it si.. ռʀ ..a notepad and a pen, draw a line down the middle and we're gonna make the left side hello and the right side goodbye.

I'm not gonna look. Was Creep '93? I'm waiting. I'll be right here.

You'll be waiting awhile.

I gotta remove this cat from the side of my skull. Sooo glad we de-wormed/flead & trimmed their claws Saturday.

No heat here "Period!"

They been carved up like hack o lanterns. Cats are UNBEARABLE with PERIODS..............

(or as you haters call em "ellipses")

I never told you about Roscoe Pico Train? Peak, for short. He was a Manx. I loved that cat in case that part about haters was for meeeeeow.

I'll be right here.

Yes you told me you had shared space with a cat.

Why you think I like you?

Well that and dogs.

I think this little fucker is trying to do a Vulcan mind meld .?

IMG_20230613_140806.jpg

I think he is too. What's the cat think about it?

It is daytime. They are passed out. I will ask him for you at 3am when he is bouncing off the walls...

20230613_144357.gif

Funny, reminds me of Pine St when I was about 20 I guess. If they were working on the AC on the roof at 3am, you're good but if they're up there in broad daylight, it's not theirs. Fire warning shots, they'll leave.
