LOL Mama. Sometimes customers come out with such ridiculous stuff.
Managed to get a new Fiesta key cut and programmed at a local locksmiths for just £40. Managed to get £10 trade discount too! They were very rude about the durability of Ford locks.

Stressful day seeing my mum who'd made the trek to see us and the 4 little spawns of Satan as she (probably) calls her grandkids. As you may of gathered my mum and I don't get on and she hates my wife.
Actually she wasn't too bad, her ME seems to be abating and she seems to be a bit more pleasant than she has been in the past. Also she had double baby cuteness forced on her all day.
Dropped her off at a nunnery in Minster, I'm sure someone there will take her in.
She is desperate to sell her car and I've put an ad in the For Sale section, whoever buys that will be getting an awesome bargain.

Today took a bit of effort. The crunch goes a bit like this...
Computers need electricity. The site has no electricity. The help-desk want me to: 1) Gain access to cash draws. 2) Check and asses till equipment and order parts as necessary. 3) Check comms cabinet.
The manageress has lost the cash draw key, yet one of the draws in locked. How did they manage that without a key?
Now with a little bit of savy you can get into a cash draw. So getting the money out wasn't too much of a problem. It's nice to know that the 16oz claw hammer has it's uses. But due to a lack of electricity there is sod all else I can do. I'm certain I explained this in the "CLEAR" section of the call closure. But several hours later I got an email chasing me up as to if I had done all that was asked of me. As I had only mentioned the cash draws in my clear. So I took some time out of my busy day to swiftly glance over the rudimentary principles of electricity and it's effects on electrical items. For example, lets say computerized till systems. It must have worked. I didn't get bothered about it again.
I know you shouldn't shoot the messenger, but you do have to wonder at the intelligence of some people.
Roll on Thursday.

They should be happy with all the business, they are right though ford keys are crap.

In a moment of madness I went on ebay and bid £31 on a TV
We now have a 32" Sony Trinitron TV wedged in our living room. Thats right the massive (and massively expensive 10 years ago) CRT screen monster. It must weigh over 60kg, it needed 2 of us just to drag it along the floor, god knows how we got it on the TV stand. I also underestimated how much bigger a 32" screen was than a 24" screen. The thing dominates the room. It also seems to have a subwoofer built in.
20 mins till Game of Thrones! HD TV, who needs it?

So today was....hmmmm.
Unsuprsingly for a bank holiday, we were slammed throughout lunch till the evening, and were busy during the evening as well. Through partially fault of my own , I didn't get my hour break (I literally forgot when I was suppose to go, though tbh, I don't think I would have been allowed to leave we were so busy). So today I did 12pm-11:30pm, with a 30 minute break. Awesome -.-
Absolutely shattered now. Fortunately I'm off tomoro, plus I made £75 in tips for the day, (about £140 inc. wages) :3

Hold up. You mean a waiter with ambiguous sexuality. Mama is all cat and ain't no one can doubt that.
Unless you did mean an androgynous waiter. Don't think they get the same amount of tips though.

Mama is all cat and ain't no one can doubt that.  Here's one that can. Who is more Cat? Tommy or Mama? Well let's start this discussion with an assumption. Let's assume that everyone here would absolutely agree that they'd never trust a cat to fill out their tax return. Now, let's ask everyone who they'd rather have fill out their tax return, Tommy or Mama?
