Pulp Fiction (1994)
I work in a big hardware store that is fond of the color orange (take a guess) and I work in the paint department. The amount of sexist comments I get is…unreal. “you sure you can lift that gallon of paint?” “Youre too pretty to be working here” (like what?) “I dont suppose you know anything about this doll, let me ask a man” (just for my male coworker to then ask me for the answer to the customers question.) One time a 50+ year old guy walked over to me and said “oh good, I was looking to get an erection today!” Like what makes you think thats okay to say to a stranger? My best friend also works with me and she gets disgusting comments every day, but Id prefer not even think about it all. We have a policy that when something is being taken down from the overhead the aisle its being dropped in as well as the aisle on the other side must be closed off incase an accident that would surely kill a person occurs. Every time we close of the aisles theres that one or 2 assholes who open the gate that clearly states that the aisle is closed for their safety or those who will complain that they cant wait 2 minutes for a pallet to be dropped and repeatedly grunt and glare at me like its my fault. I was helping this one guy and he was being polite and all but moments later when an aisle is closed off I hear someone shaking the gate and trying to come into the aisle (we can get fired if someone gets in and we dont make them leave, otherwise I wouldnt care) so I ask him to wait a moment and he instantly starts yelling at the top of his lungs “HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO SHOP?! THIS IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS, FUCK YOU AND FUCK ____ DEPOT.” And went on a tangent until he came into the aisle and realised that the paint aisle, did not in fact, have drills.
Lmfaooo wholesome post
Lml got me good 😅
THE LEGENDARY STORY OF THE TROJAN HORSE DOES NOT INVOLVE THE GREEKS GIVING THE HORSE TO THE TROJANS AS A GIFT. THE GREEKS’ DECEPTION WAS ACTUALLY THAT THEY LEFT THE HORSE AS AN OFFERING TO THE GODDESS ATHENA.
IN THE LEGEND, THEY BASICALLY SENT SOMEONE TO TROY TO SAY “THIS HORSE IS FOR ATHENA, NOT YOU, SO OUR RETREAT BACK TO GREECE IS SAFE. DON’T TRY TO TAKE IT. IT WON’T FIT THROUGH THE GATES OF YOUR CITY, SO THERE’S NO WAY YOU DICKS CAN STEAL IT AND PRETEND YOU GOT IT FOR ATHENA. NOT FOR TROJANS.”
AND THEN TROY WAS LIKE “YOU’RE NOT OUR DAD. WE WON THIS WAR AND WE’RE TAKING YOUR STUPID HORSE AS A TROPHY SO WE’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW BAD GREECE IS AT DESTROYING TROY.”
AND A FEW TROJANS WERE LIKE “THIS IS A TRICK” AND TRIED TO EXPOSE IT AS A TRICK BUT THE REST OF THE TROJANS WOULD HAVE NONE OF IT BECAUSE EVERYONE WAS SWEPT UP IN THE THRILL OF VICTORY, AND ALSO BECAUSE THE GODS KEPT SENDING SNAKES TO STRANGLE ANYONE WHO SAID ANYTHING, BECAUSE THE GREEK GODS HAD NO WORD FOR “SUBTLETY”
THEN AT NIGHT ALL THE GREEKS JUMPED OUT OF THE HORSE LIKE “WE TOLD YOU NOT TO TAKE THE HORSE, WHY ARE YOU SUCH PRIDEFUL DICKS” AND BURNED DOWN THE WHOLE CITY
This makes a lot more sense
This is not bad advice.

“April means forgiveness. For my body. For the boy with the matchsticks in his mouth. For the open wounds, the palms full of salt, the fingertips dipped in lime juice. April is the fresh start. Honeysuckle and hummingbirds, champagne for no special occasion. April is your body, humming under the sun. Swallowing fireflies, lighting up from the inside. April is saying, I’m so sorry the winter made you cruel. Let me remind you what the heat can do.”

For those who don’t know what’s happening in the video, she untied her shoelaces, pulled one through the inside of the zip tie binding her hands, then tied the shoelaces together. Then, by pulling downward and back and forth on the shoelaces with her feet, she created enough friction to wear away part of the ziptie, making it weak enough to snap right off her hands.

Damn
For those who don’t have shoelaces and for those who do but don’t want to trip over their own feet in case something goes wrong, here’s another way:
It’s all about quick, determined movement of your arms. To see it in action, watch the video at https://youtu.be/0Gr6HX_IKpw?t=9m – the zip ties part starts around the 8:00 min mark. The video also shows how to escape handcuffs and duct tape. And if you’re wondering what to do when you’ve got your hands behind your back, go to approx. the 0:20 min mark of the following video: “Moving cuffs from behind back to front position” (taken from thrillwriting.blogspot.de/2013/05/credit-wikipedia-disclaimer-this-is-non.html, where you’ll also find additional information on how to escape handcuffs).
For teach this to your kids….boys too. We don’t need to lose noone
LET 👏 RETAIL 👏 EMPLOYEES 👏 SIT 👏
The only major chain retail store that I know of that allows their cashiers to sit is the Aldi grocery store, a German chain. Their starting pay is also $12 an hour chain-wide.
The interior of the store looks like this so they save money on the annoying shelf restocking. Products remain in their boxes until being removed by customers. No unboxing and putting stuff on shelves, and constantly having to rearrange it. Also, the boxes make inventory a breeze as a sealed box has a defined number of items in it.
Typical American grocery stores have shelves like this
Every item has to be unboxed and neatly stacked on the shelves. If they get messed up by the customers, everything has to be rearranged back to specific rigid order. When you have to verify the inventory, every item has to be removed from the shelves to be counted and put back. Aldi’s also do not have plastic bags. You can buy reusable bags or simply use the empty cardboard boxes that are available.
Last is the carts. Most grocery stores have their carts strewn across the parking lots, rolling around and hitting cars until a store employee is sent out to collect them, after being yelled at by the manager when they were told to do other tasks in the meantime. Aldi’s chains those carts together and you have to put a Quarter in to release it. When you are done, you plug the chain back in and get your Quarter back. If others are lazy, you can collect and return the loose carts and collect the Quarters.
It stops this…
Then the employees have to do this
People don’t shop at ALDI in the states? There is an ALDI at every town in Aus. They pay their employees like $22 an hour and often employ full time (well above the minimum wage for full time service employees). They let workers sit while doing registers and will only ever keep as many registers open as they need. The food tends to come from independent providers who strike a deal with ALDI and it 9 time out of 10 really good quality. I bought my TV from there, which is wild, and it was ridiculously cheap for what it was.
Like, I’m really against supermarket monopolisation, but hot shit ALDI is the most ethical supermarket I’ve ever seen. Especially since Coles (another Aus SM) now requires applicants to pay for their own police checks when putting in a job application.
hätte nie gedacht dass ich tatsächlich mal einen Post lesen muss, der fucking Aldimärkte wie eine utopische Zukunftsvision klingen lässt. Geht’s euch gut Amerika?
Aldi \o/
i cannot believe how terrible the us is
wtf does the usa not even have connecting shopping carts? this isnt just an aldi thing, its a europe wide thing in any supermarket. also all cashiers sit down in europe…. wtf is wrong with u all
straight people mad at “gays only event” jokes like they dont restrict blood donations, hotels, schools, jobs, and adoption. Zzzzzzzzzz
