HOW CAN I HELP YOU

***This Blog has been edited for a cleaner version lol maybe pg13 ***

5 Words tonight I have learned NOT to say to the truckers "how can I help you". Apparently when you ask that to some truckers you get replies that you most defiantly want to fulfill. Well I don't at least...

Tonight I asked a gentleman who was standing there kinda just staring in my direction, so I thought maybe he needed some help finding something. I asked him the most (now known) dreadful question that could ever be asked. He walked up to the counter, and said "phew I need to get outta here!" his buddy came up also and was like whats going on the other guy just laughed. A few mins later he was back asking me how old I was, of course I told him I was 18 and he had the same reaction only this time he REALLY needed to get out lol. The rest of the time I was helping him.... With his groceries, and nothing else!... the two guys stood there laughing. LoL I think that I will never get used to the guys hitting on me, or even going farther kind of like that man did. I mean we all clearly know what it was that he would have liked me to help him with. And you ALL know me, and of course like you can predict I was blushing madly! I just cant believe that these guys are so blunt about things! I mean really? That desperate?

A few nights ago I was talking to Mom about work and all that jazz and I mentioned one thing I really enjoy about the job. It seems like all the truckers (well the nice ones at least, not the old cranky ones who make me cry lol!) notice my name. When they walk in the all say Hi Amanda, or thanks Amanda. They take the time to notice. And I think that is very nice of them to actually take the time to personalize our transaction ya know. Well anyways I was telling my Mom about all of it and she pointed out something that makes me feel naive for not thinking about ti first lol. Well Mom mentioned that the fact that my name tag happen to be around the chest area if you know what I mean, and it was just a coincidence that they were seeing my name but they had alternative motives! I have so much to learn about this stuff!!

PS: Honestly I need some help about this. with the man I mentioned earlier about how I could help him, I also asked if he would like a bag. If you can find any reason why that comment could be considered 'dirty' then please please let me know! Because non of us at work could figure that one out. Thanks

By the way today was the first day of school and it is going great so far! I think I am going to have just a couple of hard classes but hopefully the rest of them wont be so bad. And my sign language teacher is deaf... Just like Gerardo! and she is super nice and cool it should be really fun. And I have already made a couple of friends, one girl who is in my health and wellness class, and another girl who is in three of my classes related to sign language. She just moved from out of the area also so yay! lol I am not alone!!!

Maybe he thought "bag" meant "sack" as in "in the sack?" And don't do that unless he has LOTS of money. You know those trucks are worth 1/4 million dollars, right? If you need help, I'll send Yeti. XOXO
