Since my last post my new computer has arrived. Why did I need to buy a new computer? Well it just so happens to turn out (slander coming up) that Dell laptops will die on you within two years of purchase. I have no clue how it happened but my laptop will not turn on no matter what happens. Now i'm not saying that all Dell computers are pieces of shit. Certainly there are many people who have never had a problem with theirs and replaces theirs simply because they are too old to support any programs that they might want to use. Anyways, I decided to go with a desktop because if anything does happen to it in the future I will be able to replace one part in it instead of the entire machine.
Now for a story on the completly different end of the spectrum. Part of the working with the public is the fact that many different people from all walks of life come into my work and need help with any number of things. Granted some of these people seem like they would need help operating a bathroom, but its best not to assume. Anyways, I was tagging the game department on friday when this lady came in and asked me if we had a particular game. Now she seemed like she had a perfectly typical west coast american accent when I talked to her. However, not a minute later she got on her phone and spoke in the most stereotypical british accent I had ever heard.
Another weird thing that happened is a result of a game I like to play. As a result I will often try to guess someone's age before I look at their ID's. The first time was when I guessed a woman was about 70 years old, then turned out to be 45. How someone comes to look 25 years older before they hit 50 is anyones guess.
