I'll be at the circus trying to get a handle on the inventory of $hit that the distribution center keeps sending us. Wally World has an AI that is supposed to track and supply our inventory but it's kinda f-ed up (at least at our store). We keep getting more and more overstocked **** that we don't need and have nowhere to put it. We had to rent 3 trailer storage units to park it out back yet nobody knows what's in it

We have a full tractor trailer of Easter candy still sitting behind the building. WTF? Who ordered a full trailer of franking Easter candy one week before Easter

This meme summarizes our backroom receiving department pretty well.

Agreed. Walmart has some powerful tools to handle stuff like this but if the tools are not used or used wrong it turns into a cluster Frank.

Our store manager (the guy that oversees the entire store) is a dolt. This is how we got into the mess we are in. I would vociferously tell him turn off the spigot of the DC sending us stuff that we can't sell and stuff we are overstocked with.

His reply: "If I tell them to stop sending it, it sends a wrong signal that we can't sell it."

I had to walk out of the office after that back and forth. He just doesn't get it. I have very little patience for him but ultimately he's my boss for now. It's just a silly short time job at Wally World, I have no allegiance to the place.

I think the local distribution center sends us $hit that they want to get off their books to our store knowing that the manager will blindly take it. So now it's on our books rather than theirs. Pass the buck sort of thing.

DED,
Do you ever walk with a walking stick? If yes, under what circumstances?


Under no circumstances. Only time I have ever used one was a backpacking trip on the Black river which is reserved for walk-in only access. Lots of rattlers in that area. Used for defense more than to aid walking.

Ah. Home sweet home!

Son is done with all negotiations and must decide between and Florida International and University U of Miami by midnight Monday.

One is a public tuition school and the other is private tuition, but his guaranteed scholarships at each mean he'd have to spend just 6$k tuition at FIU and $9k at Miami, per year, for just three years. So, If we are just talking about $10-20k morek total cost difference after three years, he'll choose Miami since it is a much better known school with a potentially more valuable, more portable, diploma.

Better than that, 12 mos. of this crap every single day- will finally be over Monday! =d>

Anyhow, lay about day. We were going to the local blueberry festival, but my wife is bagging out on me this year. day. We were going to the local blueberry festival, but my wife is bagging out on me this year. 80F, no breeze and wicked humidity. so it's probably for the best. Hate the humidity.

Hope everyone is doing well and enjoys their weekend!

30 mile bike ride was only 15 miles. I assumed when she said 15 miles that was one-way. Though, we did plan to add another 8 miles on the way back. But with bellies full of fried chicken and beer, and a strong headwind, we opted to skip that leg. Maybe if it's nice tomorrow we can go. Trail goes by not far from the end of a small airport's runway and you can feel the wind from planes taking off and landing.

Afternoon, gents...

Took Tank to the mall to walk around. Some ass-pipe, not paying attention and driving in the middle of the road, almost hit us... and then the f-ckbag had the audacity to say (as he sped away) to watch my dog.

This is CA, bruh. They make it exceedingly difficult to carry legally.

Granted, since I once worked for the local Sheriff I had mine for 8 years, but it's pricey otherwise and you have to renew every 2 years instead of 4.

Welp I'm 12 beers in and I'm ready to go at 2am. All the pot heads went to bed around 10pm. Thanks libtards! You created a generation of B**ches! William was the only one to keep up and we only stopped because I ran out of beer.

P.S. William is about to be a grandpa again. Ask him what his son and daughter in law want to name his new grandson. He'll be thrilled to tell you;-p

P.P.S. We got to watch Anthony tuck himself into bed. It was adorable.

How does any man, over the age of 30, plan so poorly (or pourly) to run out of beer?

Too much of that after the beer and falling is a distinct possibility

Windy, cloudy, and 63. Much better than we are going to get Monday through Thursday (low to mid 40s) so we are enjoying the day.

2 hours and 10 minutes walking. A couple stops in the grassy areas to run with some pupper friends...

Our youngest granddaughter (…almost 4…) has her first game this morning. I think it’s I5 so no formal practices other than before the game. Lotta “magnet ball”.

Think I'm gonna add that to the chore list for today. Haven't cut it since before we went to FL in January. Had to switch to using shampoo instead of bar soap which is how I know it's gone way too long. Plus my naturally bald areas are much more prominent when the rest of the head has hair.

Changed the oil and all filters in truck and car. Picked up oil filter for the mower when I was at the feed store for chicken feed but didn't grab oil for mower and gokart. Thought I had some at home but it was a couple jugs of used oil. I'm not about to go midday weekend shopping. Rainy day, not much else to do for me or anybody else in the area. Hit Menards at 0800 and feed store around 9 and both were packed already.

Got wife's mothers day stuff bought and stashed.

Haircut, shower, and I think that's it for today.
