ToyMan!Yep, I was right and he was wrong.What really aggravated me is that he told Ember to tell me that I needed to review my policies, as though the seven whole months he spent as a salaried manager before *I* got promoted (to the same level) makes him that much more experienced.Jackass.

January 19, 2008
The sky is crystal clear tonight. There’s a beautiful, bright near-full moon high in the sky. This would almost be a perfect night for snuggling around a campfire if it wasn’t ten degrees out. Anything below forty degrees turns a snugglefest into a desperate attempt to avoid hypotherm...

ToyMan

Good Grief! Why is it me the always gets the weird, off the wall customers?Had a customer call today and claim that this weekend he poo-ed (twosies, dropped a load) in the bushes behind our store. He apologized for that but he then went on to say that apparently the leaves he used after were…
