A Kid Peed In Front Of Me Today.

He's standing there at the counter and just lets it go. He didn't whip out his wiener mind you, just went right in his pants. And it's not like he just couldn't hold it anymore and a little bit leaked out, it was fucking Niagara Falls roaring down his pant leg........and onto the floor........and down a good ways into the first aid aisle. He was probably like 5 or 6 years old. Definitely old enough that he should have had the proper training.

His mom was there right beside him. Her reaction, delivered in a Xanax induced monotone: "Um, you should have told me you had to go."

Thing is, I wasn't really all that surprised. This is what working in retail has done to me. I am not fazed by seeing a little boy piss down his own leg.

The boy didn't really care either. That's what the ghetto has done to him.

It wouldn't have surprised me, either. I've seen three adults (all drug addicts) piss themselves at the counter during the course of my career.

I'm SOOOOOOO glad my last day of retail pharmacy was last Friday. I will not miss this kind of shit at all when I'm working at my new hospital job.

It's not surprising to me either. Where I used to work a man went to the customer bathroom and shit on the floor. He left it there and told nobody.

Let's see....I've had many kids pee and vomit at the pharmacy. I also had 1 lady have an explosive bowel movement at the counter and a lady poop on a waiting room chair. I also had a guy with practically severed finger bleed on the counter and then ask if Neosporin and a bandaid would fix it. Sure, why not.....your finger is probably going to fall off anyways....no need to see a pesky doctor for stitches. Just slap on neosporin.....that will for sure prevent gangrene.

That's honestly not very surprising to me, either. One day a nun (yes, A NUN) shit all down aisle one, left a trail going into the bathroom, and stunk up the entire bathroom, too. I didn't think anything so foul could ever come from the ass of god's servants. Surely she had to be possessed by satan. There are still brown stains in the greeting card aisle.

And then when she came out of the bathroom, she had a bag with her. And she opened up the damn bag to show us, saying, "don't worry, it's just my panties." Sister, I really don't care if you steal anything, just don't shit in my store anymore.

I had a kid crap on the floor right in front of me once. He was wearing shorts and apparently no underwear because it went plop right onto the floor.

There was a woman who came in with a bowl. She was...kinda crazy but she did have a lot of problems. Our tech who had a hangover went over and asked her how she was etc. Right when the woman went to open her mouth she puked right in the bowl at the counter. Then sat down to wait for her scripts with her bowl full of puke. Another lady came into the store where my mom is a tech. A really smelly middle aged lady with scripts that weren't hers. She sat in the chair to wait since it was 5 minutes to close and pissed in the chair and left a puddle on the floor. She never said anything or acted like she did anything and just carried on about her business.
Maybe I should blog about some of the nastiness I've seen.

Damn, and I thought the homeless guy trimming his toenails in the dispay are was bad. I now know how much worse it can be. Thanks, I think.
