The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Earlier in the week - before Thanksgiving - I walked into a huge blowout at work. D - one of the TA's (teacher's assistants) who is an asshole, by the way - was going off on the main shipping & receiving guy Cal, who is a nice, cool dude.

It seems that the TA took exception to Cal coming in for free coffee and stuff...nevermind that he has the okay to do so from the boss.



D: Well man - I'm a professional! *yelling...'professionally'* You need to stop hanging around eatin' and shit!

Cal: *raises an eyebrow, and says nothing*

D: We can take this shit outside, man! *gets up in Cal's face, removing his chef's jacket, flexing his muscles*

Various replies from many present: "Why don't you chill out, man! Nobody here wants a fight - why are you trying to start one?...You aren't in charge of the cafeteria, so why are you trippin'?"

D: "'Cause it ain't right! Who the hell is he?" *sounding like a whinny bitch now*

Cal: "You're a clown, man."



D backs down, walking back to his area, still talking shit. It's apparent that not many people are on his side. What an obnoxious asshole.

The funny thing is that I think Cal has Chicago mob connections, but he was totally cool throughout D's meltdown. I was half-expecting him to throw his cup of coffee in D's face.

I have a workmate who constantly complains about other folk at work, only she seems unable to comprehend that what she complains about the others doing is what she herself does more often or not. Pah folk are just....idiots sometimes

The holiday was nice - it was at my mom's. I was sooo glad to see my sis Ray and her family there - although her oldest was at his girlfriend's family's place for the holiday).

I didn't eat much, due to my wierd stomach condition. I did bring food home, and kinda' pigged out the following day, with no ill effects.

I have a ton of stuff from work too, ie an apple pie, sweet potato pie, 2 bags of dinner rolls, caramel-chocolate pie slices, fruit cups, etc...with the exception of the pies (which I bought) I got the other stuff for free at the end of the work day. Into the freezer most of it will go - lol!

I have enough food to last for weeks!

M (another cashier): Naked Juice is too expensive. They cost too much!

Me: Yeah - $3 is a bit much...

M: Tooo much - I'm cheap! *laughs*

Me: Hell, if I add a quarter, that's half of what I spend each day on BART.

Grill Guy B: Ya'll talking about that Naked Juice?

Me: Yeah.

Elderly woman walking towards us: Naked Jew? Where? *looks around frantically*

This picture was taken on November 17, 2010...NOVEMBER! It isn't even Thanksgiving yet!

Earlier, I mentioned that I worked in a place akin to an insane asylum. I stand corrected - it is more like a really bad, unregulated recycling center.

I have to keep reminding myself that I am working at a jr. college...judging from many of the students here, the decline of western civilization is at hand.



*Remember the Asian kid with DS? While I was making my way to the coffee maker during the breakfast rush, he stops me to ask if he could get a discount if he showed his school ID. He had something - I forget what it was - for $3.95.

"If I show my ID, can I pay $2.00?" "No - sorry" I replied. He reflected on my answer for a few seconds, then said okay...as he walked off, I heard him mumble under his breath "Ho."

*Shakespeare/Spielberg dropped by one day to visit, shouting "Monique, Monique!" We spoke briefly, then I beat a hasty retreat. Good grief.

*We have a lot of guys - and a handful of women - in various green jobs programs. They are always in blue uniforms, so it's easy to spot them. They get a pretty good stipend for meals, and they eat - a lot. After they leave, a lot of the food is gone. About two-thirds of them are pretty cool - the others are assholes. I was told that the majority of them are ex-cons. Hey - they gotta' learn a trade and make a living too. Anyway - there are two guys that I just cannot stand. They are rude and on a good day, have the personalities of floating shit turds.

*While my main job is cashiering, I do other mundane tasks as well. I was cleaning up and re-stocking the supply table, ie re-filling the utensil and napkin dispensers. I tossed debris into the trash container. I was immediately attacked by a woman who screeched "You just threw away my bottle top! You got gloves on - get my top out of the trash!" Her short fat ass was actually getting up in my face, being all ghetto and shit. Was she just standing there, watching me - waiting to start shit? I really wanted to punch her in her ugly face. I'm thinking -"Bitch - if you wanted it, why in the fuck did you leave it there with all of the other garbage?" Instead, I said - with a sweet smile on my face - "I'm sorry, hon. Let me take it out of the trash and clean if for you. I'll be right back"

So, I did just that. I was so damn nice to her that she was taken aback. She actually said thank you, and told me that I was a nice lady.

Bitch. She had so many piercings and shit in her face that she looked liked she got attacked by a Bedazzler.

But - since I didn't want the possibility of being sued or something if the bitch got sick, I was a good girl. Plus - it was fun to fuck with her with my over-the-top 'kindness'...lol!

I was at my mom's yesterday. My sister was up from Twin Peaks, along with her oldest kid.

Mom has decided on buying a condo now...no changing her mind this time, I think. Spent around two hours at a real estate office, then back to her house for a bit. (Is she selling her house? I don't know. We just want her to be happy and comfy wherever she is).

My sis took me to my fave grocery store later on, then dropped me off at home.

I will order myself to study and do assignments this weekend...no ifs, ands, or buts!

So, while I snooping around in KattrinaK's journal, I came upon her Dia de Los Muertos entry.

At the college, there was a ceremonial dance presentation by Mexican Indian dancers in honour of the day. They were very good. One tall dancer in particular caught my eye:







I wanted to get in closer to get a better picture, but I couldn't. So, believe me when I say that he was gorgeous...face, muscles, feathers, and all!

Yesterday was almost 'normal'...except for the following:



* A big kid was staring at me when I came in in the morning. When I emerged from the office to start work, he said "hugs!' then attempted to give me a bear hug. It was The Hugging Guy! His teacher was with him, and stopped him from squeezing me. "You can say hello and shake her hand - do not grab and hug, okay?" she admonished. We shock hands.

* Shakespeare/Spielberg dropped in during the busy lunch crowd to say hello. I was off of the register at the time, making coffee and keeping other stuff filled. He was all in red again, and wore these HUGE round red sunglasses, a-la Paris Hilton. It was hard to keep a straight face, especially with other co-workers making faces at me behind his back. He thought that he was looking really good...I thought that he looked like an insect, with those big-ass glasses.

* The creepy Institution Man dropped by in the afternoon to bother the shit outta' me. When he walked away to order from the grill, I sneaked away to the office, and waited until he left...good grief.

First off, I don't want people to think that I only write about my job to make fun of people - it's more that I'm reporting what I see, as some of it seems unbelievable, ya' know?





* I haven't been bothered by the Shakespeare/Speilberg wannabe in a few days...another one seems to have taken his place. This guy is a tall attractive dark-skinned older man...who is giving me the creeps, as he can be stalker-ish, according to another cashier who had a run-in with him a few years earlier. I'm not interested in anyone at the school, so I don't really pay attention to whatever attention I seem to be getting...yet this guy is up in my face a lot, which irritates me. He comes in the afternoon, and is always asking me out. I keep politely declining, but he won't give up. What makes him creepy is that something about him smacks of being institutionalized...like either in an asylum and/or a prison. It will be nice if/when the school gets funding to have security again.

* The blonde surfer dude came in again - this time he had money. He bought a breakfast sandwich, for $2.95...mostly in nickels and pennies.

* A student worker was helping the boss with some of his paperwork; she set up a file for him in one of the filing cabinet drawers. She's a Latina and speaks English perfectly...a COLLEGE student. Why was the drawer listed as 'S-----'s fiels'...? None of us have the heart to tell her that she can't spell worth a shit. One day, I'll change the tag when no one is around.

* Remember how I mentioned earlier that most of the special needs students are nice and/or sweet? Well, there are a few exceptions. One - an Asian kid with Down Syndrome - kept walking around the cafeteria asking people for $5.00..."Yo - give me five dollars" he repeated, all gangster and shit. When he got to me, he asked for money. I told him that I didn't have $5.00, and asked him where his student assistant was. He stared at me for a moment, then said, "Yo bitch - you know you got five dollars"...

* Recall the kid who appeared to be about to spit on me? I saw him pick his nose, then put a booger in his mouth.

Even though this is a cashier job in a jr college cafeteria, it can be strange at times.

My very first job was a summer job I had when I was 13 - I was a teacher's assistant for special needs kids. I loved it.

The so-called 'regular' students and the non-student strays are the ones one needs to look out for though - lol Well - lol kind of)...

Since it's the middle of the day, we'll catnap. Around 1 or 2 am, we'll start to party!

We'll disturb Mom's sleep, by climbing and jumping all over her, and we'll be sure to give her lots of kisses and face rubs, to show her how much we love her!

Why does she sometimes spray us with that damn water bottle? We just don't get it...

Idiots/wierdos/bitches/assholes come in all colors.

So people won't get any pre-conceived notions on the people I write about, I will - for the most part - state the race and/or nationality. I don't want people to think that the people I write about are mainly black or white...they come in all colors here. (This is the San Francisco Bay Area, after all).

Also - I will refrain from using anyone's real name, of course.

Damn...I haven't logged on since November 1st...I have some catching up to do!
