Last week, I got a call from the Lead Assistant Manager, "Can you work Saturday? The Produce Department needs some help.......... AND we will do your 90 day evaluation on that day."
So................ Saturday Morning, I found out WallyWorld's Top Selling Fruit.
One Banana, Two Banana, Three Banana Four.
I notice that there was fresh mud still clinging to some of the banana boxes. That come from some place in Central America. Years ago, I was told about an old Santeria Spell. Send an undesirable someplace far by mail mailing them dirt from that place.
 > Chuckling, I pondered on the possibility of the Texas Dufus in Costa Rica. Heh! Heh! Heh!
After the Banana's were happily in their place, I started stocking more produce including a box of Cucumbers. A Husband and his wife started inspecting the cucumbers in the box. "How much are they" the husband asked. "I am not sure, I can tell you once I find out where to stock them." I informed him. "Not to worry," his wife said as she grabbed a few of the cum cumber and placed them in her shopping cart and off they went.
A young Gothic Man started inspecting the cucumbers. "How do you make cucumber slaw, he asked."  "That is an interesting concept, perhaps the same way you make coleslaw. There is a ready made coleslaw mix by the cabbage section. If that doesn't work, check out the cookbooks." The Young Gothic Man picked out some cucumbers out of the Box and added the ready made coleslaw in his cart. "I think I'll go check out the Cookbook section too." he commented as he left the produce section.
NEXT!!!!! A group of ladies started checking out the box of Cucumbers. "How Much?" one of them asked. "I am not sure yet, I usually work in the Meat Section" I replied.
"Who needs MEAT when there are so many marvelous VEGGIES," one of the ladies commented and soon the entire box of Cucumbers was gone.
After stocking everything else, I decided to immediately stock the next box of cucumbers before the customers got them all. The Price was Ninety Two Cents per Cucumbers.
I personally don't understand the love affair with the cucumbers. I think it's a bland and dull vegetable but better than broccoli. But we all like different things.
I was headed for the break room when I was stopped by the Co-Assistant Manager. That man has no idea the X rated thoughts that cross my mind whenever I graze upon his masculine spender. I have no clue if he is married, single or even straight. It doesn't matter anyway. It's much ado about Nothing because Management is not allowed to romance with the underling associated so..........
He will never know that I would like to compromise his virtue in the snow until it turns into a steaming puddle of whirling water in a jacuzzi while I pour pomegranate juice all over him and feed him strawberries.
Heck Darn Blast and other Words to that Effect.
Life on Life's Terms.
The Co-Assistant Manager advised me that the Lead Assistant Manager completed the 90 day evaluation for him to go over with me.
The Evaluation was good and I got a Raise.
Yippee!!!!!! My goal is to complete Six Months and trasfer someplace else. I am half way there so .......................

WallyWorld, Snowstorms, Car Accidents, and a Cell Phone in the Washer

When I arrived at work at 4am this morning, it looked like the store had been hit by a tornado.
Dang! What happened to all the products that I stocked yesterday. I strightened out the mess and started restocking. When my boss came in at a much more reasonable hour, I commented about the mess.
"This always happened before a big storm," he replied. The customers go on a buying frenzy.
A few hours later, my unoffical boss came in. He lives in West Virginia where the snow gets really bad.
He commented on how the West Virginians always make it to work while the locals call in during bad weather.
I told him about the 40-something Wal-Mart Associates who called out during a little bitty icestorm in Texas. Texans don't know how to drive in adverse weather. 
I ran into my two roommates at the store. One of them told me that if I got stuck to call her and she would come get me with her 4 Wheel Drive.
I was telling my unofficial boss that my car might stay overnight because my friend would get me in a four wheeler.
"Ah Ha! A Man with a Four Wheel! Go get him Girl," he says kiddingly. "I WISH it was a male friend. IF it was a male friend, I would call OUT because of the Weather on Monday." Both the boss and unoffical boss laughed.
At one PM, I checked the parking lot debating on if I was going to call my roommate. My car was buried in snow but it looked like they were plowing the roads. I unburied the car, talked to God alot and slowly drove until I made it home.
I got a call from my ex-husband telling me that he was involved in a car accident by the Crows Exit on I-64 in West Virginia. He was okay, his car is okay but his Girlfriend had to go to the hospital by ambulance. My thought was, "WTF is he doing driving his FireChicken in this kind of weather."
Later on, I washed my Jeans with my cellphone in it - so I can't even call him.

I am a Registered Voter in the Commonwealth of Virginia

Last week I tried to register to vote and had some trouble. I still have my WV Driver license because I had to send for a birth certificate in order to change it. (Courtesy of the American Saga with illegal immigrates or maybe it's the terrorist threats).
When I presented my WV Driver License, I was told that I may not be able to register unless I can provide proof of a PERMANENT resident.
I haven't had a PERMANENT resident in over a year and I am not sure that I want one. Last year, I resided in Texas, Nevada, Arkansas, West Virginia and finally Virginia.
I have made a personal committment to in Virginia for six months until I can transfer someplace else with my job at WallyWorld.
That is about as permanent as I want to get. Needless to say, no matter what State I live in, I am STILL a United States Citizen and I want to vote. After a call to the Virginia Senator and an e-mail to the Virginia Governor, I am now registered to vote in Virginia.
I will be able to vote in Virginia Tuesday after Super Tuesday Primary Election. Yeah!
Yesterday, I also looked at an Apartment in Clifton Forge. So technically, I will be a Virginia Permanent Resident for awhile anyway.
I find it interesting that my 68 year old ex-hubby's 34 year old druggie girlfriend comes from Clifton Forge. She has moved to West Virginia and I am moving from West Virginia to Clifton Forge. Yippee!!! It's closer to Lexington which totally awesome and Charlottesville which is an absolute Mecca.

Obama is also Irish American. What is your Ancestry?

There has been much ado about Obama's African Kenyan Roots but he is also an Irish-American.
US President's with Irish ancestry include
Bill Clinton, Ronald Reagan, and of course, there was much ado John F. Kennedy's Irish Catholic roots.
Obama's maternal great great grandfather was born in Ireland. Falmouth Kearney sailed from Ireland to New York in 1850 at the age of 19 on the S.S. Marmion arriving on the 20th of March.
Ronald Reagan's great-grandfather, Michael O'Reagan, was born in Ireland in the 1820s. John F Kennedy's great-grandfather Patrick Kennedy came from Dunganstown, Co Wexford, while Bill Clinton's maternal ancestors hail from County Fermanagh.
Hillary Clinton traces her ancestry to a mining family in Co Durham, England. George Washington was the descendant of a family who lived in a village, now a town, of the same name 10 miles away on land once owned by the Bishop of Durham. She also French Canadian, Welsh and Jewish Roots.
I can trace my ancestry on both sides back to the 1860's. A Cherokee Woman left the reservation in Oklahoma and went to work as a maid in Kentucky. She married an English Butler. My Catholic Grandmother scandalized the family by marrying a Jewish man. My mother simply married a non-Catholic.
My father's great great grandparents were German Farmers who migrated to Kentucky in the 1850's. My grandfather married a Blackfeet Indian.
Most Black Folks who have American ancestry going back to the 1700's when slave trading was legal have an even more varied ancestry than Obama. They are just as much European and Native American as they are African American.
I have speculated that since I have family members in Israel which is located in Northern Africa or is it Asia, if I could technically be
African American or perhaps Asian American.
What is your Ancestry??????

Pat Robertson's Annual Predictions
This would be good for a laugh if so many didn't actually believe this nutcase.
Pat Robertson is living proof that evolution can be reversed.
Wednesday, January 02, 2008
AP
NORFOLK, Va. –
Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson predicted Wednesday that 2008 will be a year of violence worldwide and a recession in the United States, followed by a major stock-market crash by 2010.
Sharing what he believes God has told him about the year ahead is an annual tradition for Robertson.
When the Predictions don't come true, he of plays the
"Power of Prayer" card
God told him there would be a major terrorist attack on the U.S. last year, and enough prayers came in to change God's mind, he didn't see fit to make the announcement to Robertson so he could relay that to the rest of us so we could all stop worrying? \
Pat Robertson Predicts Worldwide Violence, U.S. Recession in 2008
On Wednesday's "700 Club" broadcast, the founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network predicted that evangelism will increase and more people will seek God as the chaos develops. Robertson said, "We will see the presence of angels and we will see an intensification of miracles around the world."
Last year, Robertson predicted that a terrorist act, possibly involving a nuclear weapon, would result in mass killing in the United States. Noting that it hadn't come to pass, Robertson said, "All I can think is that somehow the people of God prayed and God in his mercy spared us."
Yep! It's the POWER OF PRAYER!!!!

2008 Solar Return Reflections and a Tale of Three WallyWorlds.

Today is Old X-Mas and the first Day of
Epiphany
thus a gOOd Day to reflect on the lessons of the previous year.
It has certainly been an interesting year.
I worked at WallyWorld in
TEXAS, NEVADA and Now VIRGINIA
My Heart was broken  by the
 (the southern tradition is to alway bless someone's heart before insulting them
IGNORAMUS, ARROGANT, ILLITERATE TEXAS TONKA TRUCK DRIVER 
I read someplace that when your heart is broken......
Cry A River,  Build A Bridge,
Get Over It!!!
So I used my WallyWorld Discount to Buy some High Heel Boots and Rented a U-Haul.
The Bridge was 1900 Miles and ended in
Silver Springs, Nevada
My first thought when I looked at that High Desert was
WTF!!!!!
I worked at another WallyWorld Bakery in Fallon, Nevada. The only good thing I can say about Nevada is that I met a few SFF Friends at a Reno Luncheon.
Instead of going to California, I went to Arkansas - When all the grandparents and parents has crossed over, it can be an eerie feeling. I discussed this topic with my brother and he said he would be the first to go. I never expected it to happen so soon. There were five of us and he was the first to go.
I took the Greyhound bus ride from Hades to say goodbye to my Brother. My sister said that my siblings were uncomfortable with my Spirituality. It created conflict and altercations. I am not sure that it will ever be mended. When I was a youngster, I was often treated like an outcast. I wonder if they might be inadvertly reinforcing that role.
It could be as simple as Life on Life's Terms. Siblings grow apart and create lives in different directions.
I headed back to West Forgotten By Santa Virginity with it Mountain and Rivers but alas still an abundance of Minimal Wage Jobs from Hell. Thus I find myself across the boarder in the CommonWealth of Virginia working at WallyWorld number Three.
I have given myself a six months committment to stay at WallyWorld in Virgina and transfer someplace else. Where I don't yet. Where Is Home, Where Is Love. I don't know yet.
Bloom where planted and see what grows there.

Will My 's Presents Made It To Georgia By X-Mas

Old Christmas that is........
January 7th.
When my sons were youngsters, we would often celebrate Christmas on an alternative date so that they could enjoy a celebration on the traditional December 25th date with the other parent. My Ex and I would go out for Chinese on Christmas Day.
Thus my boys are used to a non-traditional spin on the Holidays. My Older is in Georgia and My Younger is in West Virginia.
So............ I took advantage of the after Christmas sales and My WallyWorld Associates Discount. I put 700 minutes on my old Tracfon with the West Virginia Number - wrapped it up in some long underwear, socks and Valentine Candy. I sent them off with my now ex-hubby who delivered them to my youngest .
I sent several items to my older and his peach in Georgia. Fun Items. A Stuffed Monkey holding a blanket and a stuffed Zebra Pillow. Candles and Boxes of Flavored Popcorn. Romantic Valentine Items. (It's so cool because I actually got to send them Valentines stuff for Christmas) I sent them pretty ribbons with jungle bells. Gift Certificate to Arby's and Dairy Queen. His favorite place and her favorite place. There was nothing overly expensive but things to make them smile.
I picked up the boxes to mail them in at WallyWorld. One was a box that was used for containing Brown Sugar Bacon and the Other for Hillshire Little Smokies.
I decided to walk the few blocks to the Post Office rather than driving. One gentleman in the post office commented that I must work out in a gym to be able to lift that box. "Actually.....I work out at WallyWorld and get paid for it," I cheerfully informed him.
Earlier that morning, that box that contained my 's stuffed monkey and zebra was actually full of bacon. The box was bulky but not heavy with the presents. If it had bacon instead of presents, I would be driving to the UPS Office versus walking to the Post Office.
I aways pay a little bit extra to get Delivery Confirmation which allows me to check the route of the packages on-line
Thus Far the Presents were
Acceptance COVINGTON VA 01/03/08 4:07pm
Processed CHARLOTTESVILLE VA 01/03/08 9:55pm
Dang! My 's presents made it to Charlottesville VA before I did. Charlottesville and Tomas Jefferson's Former Home Monticello are my Mecca. I also want to visit the Hamton Inn which is the site of Sally Hemming's Final Abode. If Thomas Jefferson slept there, so can I.

A Tale of Four Cell Phones
|
Posted:Dec 30, 2007 7:51 pm
Last Updated:Jan 2, 2008 7:54 pm 1743 Views

I just purchased my FORTH Cell phone this year.
This year I had a Phone with a Texas Number in Nevada, That Phone died, my option was to drive across town and get another one or purchase one right where I worked at.
Thus I ended up with a Phone with a Nevada Number in Arkansas. I soon discovered that the Nevada Phone didn't like those West Virginia Hills and the company liked to charge for services that I didn't access to. I fired them and replaced the Nevada Phone with a West Virginia tracfon.
I was offered employment in Virginia thus I had a West Virginia Cell Phone in Virginia. I soon discovered that prepaid is not economical.
So.............I now have a cell phone with a Virginia number in Virginia. I wonder how soon it will be before I move someplace else.
Today I purchased over 700 minutes for the West Virginia Tracfon. I used my WallyWorld Discount Card to buy long underwear, shirts, socks with some Valentine Candy. I shipped it off to my younger who resides in West Virginia with a note biding him Merry Christmas.
The sweet darling purchased his first cellphone and spoke to his girlfriend prime time and ran up an astronomical bill that he can't pay.
