When I got home the Internet was still out, so I had to go back for most of the day today until I actually saw the Internet repairman eating lunch. He told me he was on his way to our house next.
Here is a glimpse into the world of being a fly on the wall at a McDonald's truck stop for a work day and a half. In other words, here's what I tweeted.
I'm pretty sure Santa Claus is here writing his nice/naughty list on his VAIO.Finally, I tweeted: This tweet brought to you from the safety of my own home.
Not used to working in an environment where the loud speaker announces whose turn in the shower it is.
Santa Claus thanked me for watching his stuff while he got up. I didn't even know he had left.
OMG Happy Birthday Candace! Whoever you are.
Day 2 of McDonald's internet. Here we go.
Old guy just belched so loud I could hear him through my headphones with loud music.
Fanny pack sighting!
Fanny pack woman bought a coffee, sat down, and poured it into a coffee mug. Alrighty!
Large man in overralls with side buttons unbuttoned. Gross.
I must be intolerable to sit next to. Fanny pack woman got up and moved.
Three soldiers walked in and a guy let them go ahead of him. There's something still right in the world.
Turns out the fanny pack had a tablet in it. Oooh, she's a tech savvy fanny packer!
Dude ate biscuits & gravy then went back up to order more food.
People keep looking at me like I'm an alien. I'm probably the only person in this town with an Apple computer.
An employee just asked me if everything was all right. I said yes, but come on, I'm working at a truck stop.
Just caught myself whistling out loud to the beginning of "Young Folks" by Peter, Bjorn, & John.
Here come the community college students. This should be fun.
There is a guy that looks like an ethnic Rodney Dangerfield getting his burger on. I can't make this stuff up!
Employee at McDonald's is on the phone and he has now said, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" TWICE.
Large man in red sweatpants. Not easy on the eyes.
Someone's eating a Fish Filet and it smells terrible.
Dude put MORE SALT on his fries and is now shaking the bag like crazy.
The Frontier dude saw me sitting here when he came in for lunch & said, "You having trouble with your Internet?" Nope. I enjoy sitting here.
3 guys just came & sat down that smell like pure garbage. 1 of them has what looks like a giant booger on his sleeve.
The source of our problem? Mice. Little boogers chewed up the wires in our outdoor box.
