Season 9 Writing
I know that a lot of people talk about how their least favorite season is Season 9 because of the whole Rachel and Joey arch. But besides that, to me it was just the immature writing that the writers subdued to this season. Examples are Jack's flatulence, Dr. Weiner, the "doctor pressing their penis up against you" joke, "penis model", Phoebe's friends "Poophack" and "Titweiller", Ross tucking in his penis when he was younger, and the whole Shark Porn storyline 🙄. I'm sure there are a few more, but I can't think of them now. I'm not a prude or anything but I just think it was such lowbrow humor the writers resorted to. Yeah there were some immature type of jokes in the earlier seasons, but they were smart clever subtle jokes.
Besides that, to me the writing just seemed to be so off this season, like they were trying too hard to make jokes or lack thereof.
I think Adam Chase leaving after Season 6 was one of the things that left a big whole in the writing from Season 7-10. And I think you can primarily tell by Season 9 it became a little more obvious.
Lost Scene
I wonder why after all these years, this particular scene has not appeared anywhere. It doesn't even exist on the extended DVD episodes. There is no tag scene to the extended episode; it's just the cast dancing in the fountain.
I'm assuming it was probably just a promotional photo or the original media for it is lost or the scene wasn't shot very well.
Overall, I think it would have been a funny scene just from the looks of it
Some Friends Memorabilia
I was going through some of my Friends memorabilia and i found these guys. I was obsessed back in the day. I think I had a whole binder of articles too. I even had the big poster of the one them drinking milkshakes. I think I may have thrown it out a long time ago. Maybe I should the boys' poster up again, hehe.
Rachel's Dubbed Line
Has anybody else noticed that Rachel's line was dubbed here? It's always bothered me because it clearly isn't Aniston's voice. I wonder what she actually said.
Smoothing Question
Is it normal for smoothing to zero out our remaining inventory? A lot of my items today say to take whatever is on on shelf and leave nothing (0). I've done smoothing before but this is the first time it's telling me to do that.
Team Member Day In Store Only
Who the hell came up with that decision? Apparently it's supposed to alleviate the burden of employee curbsides for employees on employee day. This was never an issue so why make it sound like it was one? What if an employee is sick and can't make it? Or what if I want to get something that is cheaper online?
​
You can still do regular discount curbsides, which still doesn't make sense.

Candy WIC Fixature
What is the WIC for the low rail guard for candy? I see several wics on the planogram, but I wanted to make sure I ordered the correct ones.
I love to throw all this freakin' garbage out. But none of it expires till the end of June or later, and clearly no one wants to buy it. It doesn't even fit on our clearance endstand or our cart of non-basic items. We already have ENOUGH non basic drinks waiting for markdown on it as it is, that's going to need to go on the clearance endstand, somehow, later on.
I left my manager a message and she can figure out what she wants to do with them.
Almost every single item besides the cube toys says "Insufficient DC Inventory". The last Pokemon thing from this section we got was OVER a year ago. They need to get rid of it and utilize this space better.
