"Look, Chad, I'm not looking for feedback."

—Bill Pehlan, October 29, 2024

I called my former job today. I asked for the manager, I thought the conversation was going well, I told him why I tried to like him despite his shortcomings—then I dared say maybe don't skeleton crew a 4-6 person shift with 3. 

That's the response I got.

That's how richie rich thinks of us as people.

Just like my old man: mow the whole lawn before I finish edging with the weedeater. Then use the blower to clean the sidewalks. And if you can do that and I still missed a spot, your fault, straight to third strike and threats.

Bilo, as I called him, used to order me around.

I find it funny he can't restock 2% milk and runs a store. I guess there's a reason the running joke at the store is, "Yeah, he started as a parcel—and even retards can win!"
