all i did was to goto home depot for some pressur washer fluid---
i sat down in one of those. handicap scooters... turned it on... and i was off and running ...
it was stuck in fast forward- i quickly dodged teh chech out line and got into the main aisles
i must admit i was enjoying the unusual ride-- it took a few minutes before teh staff realized what was going on'
then it was the replication of the scene in te movie AIRPLANE where. the out of control airplane was due at gate 14... no 15... now 16
as the announement was "manager requesterd in aisle 10".then "manager requested in aisle 11"
people began running along side of me making suggestions-- one of which was to get out in the parking lot til. i ran out of juice...
one brawny sort decided to stopme by grabbing the haqndlebars and standintt in front-- this made it tipp and made me nervous.. i quickly insisted nobody stand in front and let the battrey run out which is whatwe did-- but it was pretty funny... where is teh press when you could really use them .
it had a battere.y level light.. green full charge. yelloe half and red dead... it was on yellow when i started my ride-- so it did nto take long.. but it was funny...many people got laugh out of that few minutes...
as i finally stepped out to safety, a woman said. "thank you for that laugh.... i really needed that". i said i was happy to oblige.-- and teh manager said. "thank heavens it was you"
so y ou see----i do have a reputation to presearve.
meanwhile the manager just wanted the whole thig to disappear because someone would find a way to. be inconveinienced by the wild ride...
it is an art now a days... take any simple fact----the cAt was stuck in fast forward could make 2 headlines. 80 year old enjoys a spin around home depot- or home depot's maintaanience department at fault.
why am i drqgging this out?.. because it happens-- there are some people just lurking in the background just waiting to turn a perfectly simple fact into a negative , damaging , hateful rumor whch can cause untold collateral damage... how to keep an organization free of such lurkers i do not know.--from the democrate/republican professional lurkers to sdp---it is terrifying...
i hope to wash the walls of teh alleyway today-- there will be some who will accuse me of wasting time... money... wATER.. SOAP...-
WELL ... I HOPE TO ENJOY IT... IT WILL AT LEAST KEEP ME FROM EATING ICECREAM FOR A FEW HOURS.
THE SERIOUS POINT IS STILL MADE. I DO LOVE A GOOD ARGUEMENT---OVER COFFE.. NO HOLDS BARRED...STAND UP AND MAKE YOU R POINTS.. LOVE IT.
BUT FOR THE ONES SNEAKING ABOUT .. NAMELESLEY IN THE WILDS OF FACEBOOK- DISTRIBUTING NEGATIVITY LIKE JOHNNY APPLESEED-- GET OVER IT
NO ONE EVER ACCUSE ME OF NOT ENJOYING A GOOD ARGUEMENT -- LIKE ANGELS ON THE HEAD OF A PIN.
