How Can My Answer Be a Lie When I Don't Know What the Question Is?

http://thatsmyanswer.com/

I was accused today of lying to try and make a sale, even though the sale was already made by someone else, and my answer was the truth. Some hillbilly wife called me and because she doesn't understand the concept of a phone bill, someone must have harmed her personally. When I explained what I thought was the answer to her problems, she called me a liar. And not just a liar, a fucking liar who only wants to make money off of her, even though I didn't make any money off of her and never will. There is only two possible explanations for why I might be a liar to this woman: either she is an idiot who doesn't know that you have to pay for services and assumed she could just skate by or in her drunken and/or meth addled rage, she wasn't asking me the right question. I am going to assume it is the former, although I assume the meth addled part about the latter was likely a factor too.

I don't understand people and I never will. Customer service will either destroy me, mess up the customer or possibly both at this point. I am so unbelieveably frustrated with not only my own profession, but with the enitre city of Des Moines, the entire state of Iowa, the enitre country, this whole planet, and even that one plant they just discovered that is similar to Earth simply because if there is life there, they are probably fucking rediculous, too.

Because of the actions of one or two people, I now assume the worst about everyone. The big breasted blond to my left; probably an asshole. The lady that works in the clothes store across from me; probably an asshole. This guy in the plaid shirt walking by me; probably an asshole. The newborn in the pink stroller; most likely an asshole. I am starting to feel very Kaczynski-ish about our society as a whole and am starting to wonder if we couldn't just use a good 40 days and 40 nights and start over again.

I am so frustrated, that my boss's boss's boss came to the store today and I didn't even pretend that I wasn't looking at Principal.com for a new job. I just smiled politely, hit the little "x" in the top right and looked him in the eye, waiting for the blowback. He just ran his hand through his gray flat top fade hair of his, congratulated me on my excellent mystery shop (mystery shops are the greatest load of crap this world has ever seen), gave me some new pamphlets to hand out and then gave me some tips on how to improve sales. Either he didn't notice the website I was on, or he is just so used to everyone quitting, that it just doesn't faze him at this point. I hope he noticed. I am planning an exit that will hopefully be quick and handled with a handshake, but deep down, I sort of feel like going out with such a blaze of glory that this kiosk burns to the ground.

Oh, and so I don't completely blow off my gimmick, I will now answer today's questions from that website I just posted:

I was baptized as a baby.

I would never send a neighbor an anonymous letter. If I had an issue with them I would mumble about it under my breath and then wait until they moved out, which will be soon knowing the place next to ours.

Women carry lots of stuff in their purses because they have lots of stuff. Men don't need makeup or tampons, but I carry pretty much everything else that a woman would, only in my pockets.

This weekend I went to an independent wrestling show, was woken up by my drunk wife and my drunk neighbors (at different times), and almost fell asleep on the couch at 730 pm.

I currently don't have a song in my head, but I will instead just type the first song that pops in. "Aeroplane" by The Red Hot Chili Peppers (one day I should write about how overlooked One Hot Minute is as an album).

Also, on an unrelated note, today is my sister's birthday. Since I couldn't find that one scene in Three Amgios where Jefe goes "Today, he turns, 33 years old" I chose this one instead.

(Also a tiny Asian man in his 60's just walked by singing Blondie really loudly. That is awesome.)
