The Funny Man

Hello everyone and thank you for visiting my blog page. I hope everyone is doing very well and is having a great summer! To start things off, I would first like to take the chance to thank all of my loyal fans for making my blog page the enormous success it has become. The last poll on my blog page has had a very good turnout, and everyone who voted got the chance to show how they feel about Sammy's return. I am surprised that people actually voted against him! I wonder who could have voted for, "Wow, don't ever come home" and "My life is amazing now Sammy is gone". Surprisingly each of those choices both had two votes along with, "I don't care", which also had two votes. I can't possibly imagine who would vote for those (Joe Tusa and Jake Baltierras). Anyways, the most popular choice was, "Skip the rest of this summer school nonsense and spend the rest of the summer with his friends!", which had a dominating 8 votes. If you didn't vote in this poll, I invite you to vote in the upcoming polls because your opinion is important! (even Jake's)

Now lets get started with the real blog, which everyone has been begging for. I know everyone waits in anticipation, and the demand for my blogs are huge, but the wait is worth it, I promise. This blog takes us back to King Soopers (my current place of employment). I have had to work like 20 hours in the last two days and it almost killed me,I'm not exaggerating. I had to work all day on Sunday and the store was disgustingly busy. I was a cashier and it was slowly killing me. I worked from 10a.m.-7p.m. and was just in a terrible mood as the day pressed on. As time passed on, it got closer and closer to 7, the time for me to get off. I was extremely upset with a most crappy day at work. Just as it was time to go and I turned off my light (showing that I just closed) one last customer came into my line. I was not happy at all to see him because it was time to go home, but I decided to help him anyways. He appeared to be a normal customer until I started to check out all of his groceries. While I was working, he started to tell me all of these random jokes, such as,"An invisible man and an invisible woman had a kid, he was nothin to see". He then followed, "The invisible kid was sick, so they took him to the doctor and the doctor said I cant see him". This guy seriously went on for like 15 minutes of just random jokes that actually were pretty funny. It's like he had an entire show to put on with comments like, "Did you hear about the peanut that walked into King Soopers? It was assaulted". By the time I was done checking out all of his groceries, I was in a much better mood. After his comedy skit was done I said, "Thanks for making my job more interesting". He looked at me and said, "No problem kid, sometimes you've gotta laugh and never take anything too seriously".
That one customer changed my negative outlook on the entire day. He provided me with some of the best advice I have heard in my 18 years of existence. I am really glad that I took the extra time to help that guy out. It helped me realize that sometimes you really need to laugh (especially when you're having a bad day). That guy was pretty tight and I would be glad to help him out with his groceries anytime. It's important to enjoy yourself and be happy, or what would be the point?

Thanks for your time,
Shaun Hicks
