Work

I yelled at a vendor at work today. The local beer guy didn't show up till 10:15 and I didn't know the guy. I had been planning to joke around with the normal driver but it wasn't him. So instead I told him, "Receiving closed at 10:00. I'll let you in, though." and he said something about waiting across the street for Coke to leave. So I told him, "Coke left an hour ago." He was all like, "...oh..." in an I've been caught lying kinda way. He was tripping over himself after that. I know that doesn't sound like I yelled, but it was my tone of voice. Authoritative and upset. Not really loud. Bonnie would have been very upset, so he's glad he got me and not her.

For the Tuesday conference call they send a follow-along list of what they'll be discussing. Normally I let the grammar errors slide, but this time I grabbed a pen and fixed the ones on the sheet I'd printed out. Grammar really isn't a difficult skill. These are people at the corporate level of, what, the 3rd largest grocery chain in the country. They should at least have basic English skills.
