Money, Kids, Bosses and Work: Annoyed

Annoyed

By musicman2005 - 30/03/2009 04:41 - United States

Today, I was at work, about to go to lunch. There were some girl scouts out front selling cookies. I told my manager that I would be using a different exit, and when he asked why, I told him that girl scouts really annoy the crap out of me. The girl scouts out front were his daughters. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, a group of girl-scouts came to my door selling chocolate bars. I bought 2 bars and smiled as they left, thinking I'd done a good deed. When the door closed, I heard one of the girls say, "Told you, the fat bitches always wanna buy from us." FML

Today, a girl-scout asked me to buy cookies, in front of Giant. She looked nice, so I bought 5 boxes from her. She took the money and went home with her mom. I opened the boxes when I got home and realized that the boxes just had rocks in them. I got scammed by a girl-scout. FML

Today, I was walking through Borders with my girlfriend, when we pass a girl scout cookies stand. I see a box of Samoas, my favorite, point at them, and shout, 'YEAH'. My girlfriend looks shocked. Behind the box of cookies was a five year old scout bending over, with her bottom pointed at me. FML

Today, I was working at a donation center. I was having a really rough day, so my fiancée dropped me off some cookies. At the end of my shift, the manager told me I couldn't take them home because they were donated and therefore they were "company property." FML

Today, I purchased a box of girl scout cookies from a coworker. I wanted to save them for later at home, so I placed them on my desk and then headed to a meeting. When I returned, there was an empty box sitting there with a post-it note saying, "Thanks!" Nobody will own up to it. FML

Storage wars

Today, I brought my daughter to work with me. When we walked in, a client was blowing up at my boss, all because as my boss was walking past his storage unit, he glanced in and was about to compliment how neat it was. After my boss left, I had to deal with the aftermath, which left my daughter terrified of this man. FML

Today, at my job as a fast food manager, I saw one of my employees "trying to pick the bugs out" of our cookies. They were the raisins in them. FML

Demon child

Today, my Scout troop was to work on my Eagle project. We specifically told everyone where to be and when, except one annoying kid we don't want there. His mother pawns him off on us because he's an aggressive, violent little maggot who can't be trusted with a Fisher-Price screwdriver. Guess who showed up anyway. FML

Today, while I was working at a supermarket, a kid started to cry in line because he couldn't get candy. Since we have free lollipops behind the desk, I gave him one. His mom complained to my manager and said I was grooming her child. FML

Today, I'm no longer allowed to work the drive-thru at my job, because over the weekend, 3 dumbasses I go to school with came in and complained to my manager, saying I sounded a creepy pervert and that it scared them enough to take their business elsewhere. FML

Well, they are kind of annoying. Cute, but annoying. I hate the way they try to make you feel bad if you don't buy some cookies. Don't feel bad, I know plenty of people who feel the same way.

FIRST :] Wow... haha. I clicked both, because you shouldn't have said that; it's obviously not polite to slander little kids. However, how could you have known that they were his children? So, your life is ****** but you deserved it. But, really.. haven't you seen photos of his children on his desk?

Dude I don't blame you. Those girl scout kids are vicious and very persuasive. I told them I didn't want any and ended up with like three boxes of thin mints.

Keebler is better - if only because you can choose to buy them or not. And you can use a self-check!

ur kind of a dork...first of all..ur so annoyed (psh, yeah right, more like terrified) of girl scouts that you need to use a different exit...second of all: who notifies their boss when they use a different exit? do you ask him if you can go to the bathroom too?

You shouldn't have said that :( But whenever I go to a supermarket I try to run for the other door when I see girls scouts, cause I don't want to get puppy dog eyed for not buying cookies lol.

You're a dick. Either support the children with a few measly dollars in exchange for cookies, or man up and look them in the eyes and tell them no.

I'm a girl scout (yes, still) and a sophomore in high school. It doesn't really matter if you say no, as long as you're not an ass about it.

I don't think it was the OP's fault, he was just voicing his opinion to his boss, but bad luck played the role in the fact that those particular girlscouts were his boss's daughter. For those people saying how could he hate girl scouts, in case you've never actually met girlscouts, a lot of them do keep bugging you trying to get you to buy some cookies, and when you don't they try to guilt you into buying some. You might call that perseverance, but I call it being a pest.
