Well, I'm done losing my mind for the moment

I hadn't had the news on until maybe around 3.  I kept getting alerts about this federal funding and well, Jim Acosta.  I had looked at it in the grocery store and wondered if I should turn CNN Max on.  We turned on my mom's laptop around 3 and watched Nicole Wallace.  I worked but slowly could feel the steam coming out of my ears.  More chaos.  

There are so many things that frustrate me that I have heard over the years.  Barry telling me that there's a war on Christmas.  No, there's not.  Nobody is forcing anyone to say Happy Hanukkah.  Someone might have said you know people celebrate this time of year in a different manner. And how am I a snowflake?  I don't get that word either and how it's used against someone like me.  The woke word is just stupid.  Being empathetic and wanting to help others is called being a good human.

I listened to the George Floyd trial.  In no way, did I think George Floyd was a hero.  He was tragic.  He had made mistakes.  He was also a father and a brother.  He was also someone that could have done better.  He was also someone who shouldn't have died in the horrible way that he did.  He was a human being.  I see a human being who was treated like an animal.  That's what upset me and so many other people.

I am tired of the whataboutisms.  If you say hey,  I don't like those 1500 pardons, someone would say what about Joe Biden and the crime family?  No.  That's not what I'm talking about.  The deflection is mad.  There's also a big difference between the Black Lives matter movement and what happened on January 6th.  Big difference between looting a CVS than overthrowing the government.  Neither is good but there is not a comparison.  

Ok, done with the rant.

I got a voicemail from the manager at Pick n Save that wanted to talk to me about the customer service I received.  I didn't call back.  Why?  I'm good.  I am familiar with this manager and I don't they're very nice.  I have read reviews of how rude the manager is and I don't want to do this phone call.  I have been down this road when I've voice my concerns when someone has treated me rudely.  I get excuses.  I get the blame.  It's my fault.  It's ok that someone treated me like that and you're overreacting.  

I will go out the exit that most people go out.  I'll remember to keep my receipt on hand in case anyone ask.  If the woman who's been rude to me is the one that works the check yourself out registers, I'll be polite.  I won't say anything if she tells me to have a nice day.  I said my peace.  I'm done.   I'm good.

And yes, getting $5 put on shopper's card helped. 

It's been a day!
