Too Late for You

By far the MOST entertaining evening I have had in a few days.

Friday 17th, 9:57
Cashed out my first Lotto ticket ever. I bought it because I accidentally printed the wrong one for a customer so I decided what the heck, I will buy it. I was so excited to see if I won any money. I told everyone I worked with that if I won I would share some of it. So everyone was just as excited for me as I was. Finally was able to take a break, ran and got my ticket. (I could win $32 million) stand in line. Decide to take my pic with me first Lotto ticket then finally Smith takes it to cash it in.......AND.....I lost. I was so upset like seriously.

Friday 17th, 10:02 Roughly
Mark is pissing me off! He is new and he needs to find a place. And his place is not sitting on the counter eating food from the deli.

Friday 17th, 11:29 Exactly (Keep in mind, at 12 I am off the floor)
I look out the window. Sitting at pump 13 is a blue car. 6 guys climb out. 4 of them walk in together. One comes straight for the counter. He want to buy Newport regulars. Ring him up cash it out. He is complaining about how expensive they are, and how in Seattle they are nothing like that. A man behind him asks a question. I know they are together, they walked in together. I answer his question. Man number one, we will call him Newport says: " what you say?"
Me: "I was talking to that man"
Newport looks over his shoulder, and at this point the other guy is gone again he says: "what guy?"
Me: "Your friend over there"
Newport just stares at me, "how do you know he is my friend? is it cause we are black? All black guys are friends? Is that what you think?" At this point I am flabbergasted, that is NOT how I meant it, I watched them walk in together, they were talking and everything. I try explaining it. Finally Newport laughs.
Newport: "I am just teasing you don't worry"
Now at this point I have two other employees down on my end watching this all go on. And yes they are laughing.
Newport: "what time do you get off? are you almost off? Let me take you to the club with us"
Me: I cant go I work all night I never get off"
Newport: "Come on, you have to be off soon" Now he looks to the other people, "hey what time does this sweet thang get off?" They shrug and say they don't know. So the rest of his buddies are all hanging out at the counter now. And they are all trying to persuade me to go clubbing with them. I keep saying no I cant. Newport keeps asking what time, and I keep saying I get off too late for him.
Finally they decide that they are going to go hit some of the clubs and they will be back a bit after two to whisk me off my feet....I said I would be more then happy, at two if they came back and I were still here! Of course I wont be.

But that wasn't it, after that the night got even more odd. A couple more guys came in after that buying some beer, and clearly they had enough already. Both we being very rude and going on and on about this girl (I am assuming a prostitute) and the one guy just was being very disgusting in what he was saying. I have never heard a guy talk about a woman like that and frankly I never want to hear it again. I wish I could have just reached across the counter and slapped him, or told him to shut up or something cause it was bad. Finally they leave. Now it is time for me to start closing.

Mark#2 (shift manager for night shift) Saw all this stuff going on says that he will watch out for the guys and if they come back I will just stay in the back till they leave. And for the first time since I have worked there I had to ask for an escort to my car. I was really concerned that from that last half hour one of the many guys I dealt with would be waiting for me just right out side. Brawk walked me to my car, and even checked my backseat for me. How sweat huh?! lol.

I have come to a conclusion. Everyday I get hit on, many many times. But out of all those times there is really only one guy I want to take notice. What makes me so shy that I cant just act like I do with the other guys hitting on me, Why am I so shy when it comes to really liking someone? So yea, still thinking about Romeo.
