    nurx got a reaction from Shindigs in Scrabble Grapple Toothpaste   
    After a surprisingly short product research the Scrabble Grapple team has announced the release of their brand-new toothpaste. The product originating from a wood-polishing agent has allegedly not been approved for human use. The team at Scrabble had this to say "GET THAT CAMERA OUT OF MY FACE WE WILL REMAIN ANNONYMOUS." Followed by a few gunshots and we have not heard from our reporter since. We are not entirely sure what has happened, but we have purchased ourselves some Scrabble Grapple Toothpaste and when we tried it tasted vaguely like urine. While Scrabble Grapple has been vaguely successful in North America we have yet to see any European native players accept a brand deal with Scrabble Grapple which may be in part of the EU's ban of the product. We will keep you updated as the story develops and as Scrabble Grapple continues to attempt to expand into new markets.

    1. I am very excited to get my first season in the VHLM started and with such a great  locker room of players
     
    2. I feel that in the draft the Marauders have acquired some key assets to be great in this upcoming season so I predict that we should make the playoffs this season and make a solid run
     
    3. I feel that with enough drive to be better that this team can be at the top of the league
     
    4. It is hard to tell but some of the better teams from last year could have players leaving there team for the VHLE causing them to go into a rebuild that’s my best bet
     
    5. I believe that are 1st round pick in the draft Igor Molotov has a strong chance to lead the team in points this year
     
    6. First which is a key to every team I think they have great management and a great locker room of young players that I am sure will lead us to the a strong championship season

    So I used to work full time over summers at a high school photography company as a photo editor/reviewer. I would basically spend my entire day sitting in a room at a computer cropping photos and making sure nobody was flashing gang signs or anything inappropriate. I also had the role of answering phone calls because we were a small company if about 15 and everyone had to do their jobs so I was the most available. I did wear headphones and listened to music while I did this, but the headphones were also connected to the phone (this is important for one of the stories. I have probably 3.
     
    This one day I was in the office with only one other coworker who was a salesperson. She was in lunch and I was also in lunch so we were sitting in the lobby eating. All the other people were out getting food or something similar. Now this was office hours and people did occasionally come in to pick up pictures or something similar, so it wasn't a surprise when a man walked into the room. The guy walks in and my coworker who is deals with costumers more often gets up and tried to talk to the guy who immediately says, "No I want to talk to him." Now I later found out that this guy truly believed that my female coworker was incapable of helping his problem, but I do occasionally work with certain people who have requests like removing acne and that sort of stuff so that's what I thought was happening. I ask him what the problem was and he immediately yells, "I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY SINS BASEBALL PICTURES FOR THE PAST WEEK. WHERE ARE THEY?" The company had taken baseball pictures for one high school, but they were only taken two weeks ago. If we were to rush an order we could have them back in two weeks during that season, but with how many pictures we had to process (about 3000) a week we had just ordered the baseball pictures three days ago. This guy was so incensed that he didn't have his photos of his son yet that he was told would take three-four weeks that he came in and yelled at a 18 year old thinking that would solve the problem. Funny thing is after his photos arrived and he came back he actually never paid for them and as far as I'm concerned never has so still does not have the photos.
     
     
    Seconds story is actually a coworker that worked with me for two weeks. This guy was the worst. I would work Wednesday, Thursday, Friday because those were the days that I could process the most photos, but because he worked M-F he believed he was better than me. The company had two PCs one that was used for photo editing and one that was used for scheduling. Now when there was no one editing people used the photo editing PC because it was significantly faster and you could get the work done much faster. I walked in after lunch one day and this guy was doing scheduling and I asked him how soon he was going to be done. He said about 10 minutes. I think ok that is fine. So I sit down and start setting up my headset so I can listen to music. Fairly soon after I get this setup a phone call comes in and I start talking to this person. I don't know if my coworker didn't know that's how it worked but he tried to ask me a question or something. I sort of cover my microphone and whisper "write it down" because I was trying to talk to this person on the phone. This really made my coworker upset who decided to get out of the room and get my boss. Who sees I am on the phone and waits a few minutes until I was done. I get done and my boss says "are you on the phone with friends instead of editing photos?" I explain the situation and my coworker makes up a story that really doesn't even make sense and contradicted his previous story so my boss just said "Work it out I have to get back to work" and left. I tell him I have to get to work and he should be doing the same as a dressing room had just been done being used. The next day I get to work and see that this guy was eating the bosses lunch. Now I am not sure if this was the last straw but my boss walks in see this and fired him on the spot. This guy had caused problems before in the past.
     
     
    This final story kind of funny TBH. We also did Santa photos during December and I would work as an elf along with 5 other people all around my age. We were sort in charge of building up the scene of Santa because instead of a big line we would take people into waiting rooms where the elves would keep people busy. The main thing with this is it made people think they weren't sitting in line as long because in reality we would often have about 45 minute waits on busy nights. This night we were completely swamped and had 38 families in line which if we rushed and didn't have higher standards than most Santa places it would of took about 45 minutes but it took us an hour and 20 minutes. Now this group was bug they had 4 adults and 8 children. So they were in a room alone with an elf (me). After they left I was really tired because we'll I had to entertain 8 6 year olds for an hour and 20 minutes. So I took a short break (like 10 minutes) I went down to the lobby area to grab a Gatorade and as I was done there the group was leaving. I asked them how their trip was and the kids were happy and most of the adults were happy but one lady was really mad. She went over to the cashier lady who isn't in charge but it kind of a "manager". During Christmas we upped our staff to 30. This lady was in charge of all the people who directed people and helped move families around. This lady that was mad started yelling at the cashier and the cashier being a really kind older woman says please wait and gets the person 2nd in charge. In charge of pretty much everything besides pictures. He comes down and tells her for a minutes and the lady asks to talk to his manager and so he obliges and bring down the boss. Who mind you is in charge of taking the actual pictures. So her doing this is stopping whole process. He comes down talks to her for a few minutes and she asks for his manager and he says he owns the business and she says well there has to be someone higher than you. To which my boss who I truly believe is the best person on this planet says "Who God?" Now this probably wasn't the best response but really this lady was being ridiculous she thought that I was in charge of moving families and that I was holding their family back because I had some personal grudge against her. I later found out that me asking them how they enjoyed this time is what made her believe this so  she was mad that someone who works there and dealt with her children for an hour and 20 minutes while she sat and played on her phone was taking a short break before going back to work.
