Over the last couple of days I've been recording Ratchet & Clank 2 gameplay. The first time around over half of the videos messed up so I had to do it again.
This time around they all work perfectly.
Now the fun of uploading them. I hope YouTube doesn't fuck me over with uploaded videos again.

Yesterday:
There's a "free cooking book" promotion on at the place I work at (which I was only made aware of when someone came in and asked about it), but it requires using the Discount function to put it through. Not normally a problem, except that regular Sales Assistants can't Discount on their own - we have to get a Supervisor, Assistant Manager or Manager to authorise using it every time. I can imagine what's going to happen on a busy day where lots of people claim their free book.
What is the fucking point, it just makes more work for everyone.
Today:
We have two types of shaped cushions at work: generic cartoon monsters for £7.99, and generic cartoon owls for £5.
A sign saying "Owl chaped cushions £5" was on the basket where the £7.99 ones were.
A customer saw this and had the shittiest attitude about it. Claimed that her kid picked up a monster one thinking it was an owl cushion. I probably would have been more sympathetic if not for her repeating the phrase "It's misleading" each time she spoke to either myself or her kid as if she was holier than thou or trying to get a pity-discount. Fair enough, the sign shouldn't have been there, but it's only misleading if you don't use common sense, and common sense dictates that IT LOOKED NOTHING LIKE A FUCKING OWL and OWLS DO NOT HAVE TEETH. Also it was clearly labelled as £7.99 on the tag.
Rather than be a cunt, politely tell me that the sign is wrong and I'll fix it as soon as I can. I am, after all, the person serving you. A fellow human. A little respect for providing you a service wouldn't go amiss.

Testing from an iPhone:
Edit: Worked fine for me. If that means anything.

If you don't like the community, why do you persist in making alts?

I have doubts that this is actually Koko.
If the last time this happened is anything to go by.

Constant posts from a girl I know on Facebook suffering from "I am an adult" syndrome. She keeps posting about how grown up she is and writes every little thing as if it was a personal accomplishment.She's 17 and in the few times I've been around her, I've gotten the impression that she thinks she knows everything. When she volunteered at the charity shop I volunteer at she kept giving myself and my till buddy advice, despite her only being there for 3 weeks and us being there a year and a half. But she kept doodling on the tables and stamping us with ink. She's fallen out with her family twice and moved 4 times in the last year alone.
Hopefully she'll grow out of it.
This girl again. Now she's complaining about being recommended to stay in Social Service care until she's a young adult - a minimum of 4 years - because they don't think she's ready for the adult world yet. Someone had to say it.
The funny thing is she's been posting about applying to various jobs and patting herself on the back for it.

Infinite stamina and never be in pain would do me fine.

A light blew at work and began smoking really badly. The shop had to be shut for about half an hour so the Outlet's engineers could cut the light down and tape off the wire. Stunk of burnt dust for about 2-3 hours.
I hoped it'd be shut all day since I've done long shifts for the past 3 days and I couldn't be bothered with today. Oh well, at least I'm getting paid for what I did do.

My mate watches One Piece so I decided to watch it and see what the fuss was about. I obviously like it since I'm 430 episodes in and I started at the beginning of last month.
When I got to the Thriller Bark arc, this scene played:
And I've been listening to that version of the song for almost a week.

General unwritten rule is that you need to be more active to justify posting about being here for however many years. Seems a tad lazy to have an account then not touch it much for 3 years.
But wakarimasenlol congrats I guess.

I've been told we no longer do Shopping Centre discounts at work and when I tell anyone asking for one that we no longer do them, they get the arse. They continue the shitty attitude after I give them a 20% voucher which will be valid soon.
Shoot the fucking messenger whydonctha.
Edit: I asked one of my other coworkers what the deal is with Shopping Centre discounts and they told me that we do still do them if they present a shopping centre card. So basically keep doing what I've been doing. But they did say that "it keeps changing" so I guess it's not the first time our stance on those discounts has changed. Sigh, conflicting information.

Went to the shops to get a paper for my dad and noticed the charity shop was still open 15 minutes after closing. Helped with shutting up shop by locking the bin and putting paperwork put onto the computer. I got a thanks and some juicy gossip regarding the "help" that turned up today.
Good deed for the year. Now I can continue being a cynical grumpy guy.
