2:28 p.m. + 2004-08-09 = now we can get butterscotch chips and argo cornstarch.

at approximately 8.45am, as i was just stepping outside for my first smoke of three self-alotted smokes per shift at the wedge, I was thinking about karma... and how it doesn't really work in this day and age... the meek shall inherit the earth, my ass.
at precisely 1.42pm, but 18 minutes short of me finishing my "thursday" shift, headbaker gary signaled me from the backroom. the closer i stepped toward him, the further he strode away... until one right and one left later, we are standing in the netherspace occupied by an ice machine, the walk-in freezer, the meat department's coat/apron rack and Health&Body Care's packaging/unpackaging work area.
"he's gone. he's out of here," said gary in a fashion that made it seem as though he wanted to go-tell-it-on-the-mountain-but-knew-that-to-be-inappropriate.
"who's gone?" [knowing fullwell the owner of the anonymous pronoun.]
"david's been fired."
[[fireworks! dancing! joy! ...and karma does exhist!...]]
goodbye asshole deli manager!
spent the remainder of my shift reenacting the first colour scene from wizard of oz. [hint: it deals with munchkins that make doorbell noises in celebration and one deader-than-doornail witch.]
