Free hugs and beeping birds

Another day equals another day in the world of work and this week is a mix of actually happiness and annoyance - whats that your shocked, I'm not going to be complaining all the time, heaven forbid, but don't worry Jew-burgers I'm still the same angry, old-aged, middle class, racist youth. (Y)

Any who...
Happiness first, The 'Free Hugs' T-shirt is finally mine, thanks to the very awesome fellow employee (no names though he's a famous sheep), and if any of y'all see me in it, then a free hug could be yours... well either that or a little something extra if you are attractive. Ever the opportunist.

Now that's done with, time for the weekly piss take, which this time is beeping watches, now these watches have a settable beeper, unfortunately these are set at different times on all and/or all the watches are set to different times so one will go off, and then another and then suddenly you are surrounded in a cacophony of chirping watches and a headache of bleats that after awhile scratches at the mind. woo see that imagery. for those without imagination this pissed me off, not something to have a hangover near as it pierces any amount of painkillers. made worse of course by there being hundreds of the things its like being in a bird sanctuary and having no hunting licence.

The thing is, this isn't a petty irritation, as when these watches are manufactured they don't actually have the alarms set, for obvious reasons that it would A. drain the power and B. in this terror filled world, would a seemingly beeping and ticking box get through?
 So once more it falls on dickish customers, usually teens as well - the ones who think it'll be funny to set the watches alarms to go off one minute after each other - if I didn't have to put up with it I'd have thought that is a very sneaky and clever way to be annoying, but its one of those funny when watching not suffering through.

 For example on a icy day at my old school, a first year ran across the road slipped, landed on his side then slide for about 3seconds, crashing into the curb on the other side.... that's very funny, I nearly died laughing of course the kid wasn't... come to think of it neither were my friends.
 Hmmm, maybe there is something wrong with me - Oh well.
