mantras at work

[thez]

When one is running back and forth through a coffee shop for eight hours, one's mind starts to go. Insanity kicks in, and conversation degenerates into crazy mantras. I'm sure it's happened to you before: someone makes a joke of some sort, your brain (in it's state of not-entirely-functional) can't quite let it go, and it's repeated on and on until every last ounce of funny is squeezed out of it. The other day, our mantras were...

Shake it!
Don't break it!
It took your momma nine months to make it! UNH.

RIDE THE SNAKE! ::WHI-PAH!:: (That's supposed to be a whipping noise... anyone remember that sketch from SNL?)

And...

I'm going to slit your throat and fuck the wall!

According to one of my coworkers, the last one is from a Slipknot song. That's what he said. I took him at his word. (and then slit his throat and fucked the wall~!) No one used it when customers where in earshot.


I am happy that I only work for four hours tonight. Hooraj!

*SNRK* Yes. It traumatised me so very badly, it did.

Did you do the whole arm motion with the "RIDE THE SNAKE! ::WHI-PAH!::"? Because that would the the darndest thing to witness behind the counter of a coffee shop.

AH HA HA. We do this at Charley's all the time.

And two days ago my manager and I had an entire conversation that consisted solely of lines from "Baby Got Back."

I thought you were working at Subway. Well, either way, surely the sandwiches are driving you to madness as the coffee drives me. WE WILL MEET IN THE MIDDLE. At a rest stop.
