Sick of "customer brain"

Picture this: It's 10:30 on a Sunday night in your local small town Walmart. There are maybe, MAYBE 10 customers in the entire store. So why is it that at least 5 of these morons decide that they need to come into the aisle where I've parked my pallet, which only contains headlights, camper toilet chemicals, and seat covers to BROWSE.

This pattern seems to follow me no matter the department, but it's always just as we're about to close. I'm not stocking trading cards, Nee-dohs, marked down bread, or anything interesting. And they NEVER BUY A GODDAMNED THING. Is it my sparkling personality that attracts them? Or is it that they think that they're going to find something special on the pallet that I'm working? I'm so fucking tired of this stupid place.

Had my first major (?) issue at 1500 miles

I recently got my 1500th mile on my bike, and while on my way up to my parents' house to visit after work I heard this weird noise coming from the rear of the bike. It sounded like a broken spoke (I've owned other bicycles), but I couldn't see it. The bike seemed fine, so I continued on to my parents house... up a dirt road.

The noise was really bugging me, so I pulled over and noticed that one of the spokes was out of alignment. The retaining head had snapped off, and so that end was hitting against the motor. I called Lectric to see if I could buy some spares from them, but since the bike is still under warranty they're sending me a whole rear wheel kit.

I'm not angry, and I'm not surprised, either -- the roads around here are full of potholes and "reverse potholes" (potholes refilled so stupidly that there's about a good four inches of asphalt sticking out of them), and... I can't miss them all.

I'm a bit nervous about installing the new wheel. Does anyone here know how easy or difficult it is? I've done regular road and mountain bike wheels, but the motor is making me a bit nervous.

Starting to lose it.

I was off for a few days (no special reason -- just trying to decompress from all the bullshit). The very first hour of my very first day back, I'm putting away hardware and some FUCKING IDIOT CUSTOMER is cutting all of the zip ties off of the clearly marked "Non-working display model" of blower, just so that he could turn it around and play with the NON-WORKING switch. I walked out back and started punching boxes for awhile.

Any Walmart customers reading this: Please DO NOT pull this shit in a department filled with hammers, pipe wrenches, and axes (the temptation to "fix" your stupidity is just too great).

This morning I awoke to an email from one of the doctors doing my evaluation. My diagnoses:

· ADHD

· PTSD

· Chronic Depression

and

· Level 1 Autistic Spectrum Disorder.

I'm 51, and I have suspected this for a very long time. Now that I have this knowledge, I'm not entirely sure what to do with it.

Every time I have to stock one of these fucking giant wrapped mixed pallets, it seems to be mostly overstock that I have to take to the back room. Like, every other pallet goes out with a minimum of overstock, but I waste like a quarter of my shift dealing with the overstock off of these stupid things.
